Here's the question DeSantis needs to answer: “How do you win in Pennsylvania, Michigan, New Hampshire, Georgia, North Carolina, and Wisconsin?” Those are the real battleground states, and if he wants in the game, we need to know the plan to win these electoral votes away from the Democrats.
This is also the question that Trump, and the rest of the GOP for that matter has to answer and that answer can't be the same as it was in 2016. If the next two years are spent fighting Trump v. someone else internal battles, it's going to be a bloodbath. The NeverTrumpers are ok with a bloodbath. The dems are ok with a bloodbath. We must deny them that bloodbath.
Bump for tomorrow.
TWO YEARS TO GO or as DeSantis said “chill out”.
Nominating Trump to get those people's votes makes no sense. There are a lot more people who lean Republican but won't vote for Trump. And if we really do need the votes of people that who will vote for no one but Trump ever to win a Presidential election, then that would mean we will never win again at the Presidential level once Trump is not the nominee.

Yep. That’s the question that has been turned back at YOU multiple times in your innumerable “I Wanna Have DeSantis’ Baby” love threads.
And you have NEVER answered that question... merely running away, on to the next “Yea DeSantis! I wanna have his BABY!!!” thread.
Well...?
"Donald Trump is a “three-time loser” who should clear the field so as to allow Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to claim the mantle as the GOP’s presidential nominee in 2024, according to billionaire hedge fund manager Ken Griffin".Ken Griffin
In Ken Griffin's own words DeSantis needs a three time loser to step aside for DeSantis to have any chance.
Got weary reading, but, did the artcile ever address the democrat voter fraud machine?
if not, just a lot of noise. 2020 aand 2022 show that the fraud machine is running great.
Deal with that, or forget it.
This is less about Trump vs. DeSantis than it is about which wing of the Republican Party will determine the 2024 nominee. The Republican elite, McConnell and his Senate cronies plus Fox News (Paul Ryan, Lachlyn Murdoch etc) are still entrenched as Party puppet masters and control much of the re-election monies/doners. Trump has the support of the members and fence sitters. The media will support McConnell with Democrats and their comrades in the bureaucracy including Intelligence and DOJ. Anything to keep Trump from winning. And if they are successful in diminishing his favorable they will shift their focus to DeSantis. For Republican elites they would rather be in control of the Party and lose than to win but not be in control.
Put him on same debate stage with Biden
45 years vs. 81.
It’s clear the Democrats are freaked out about DeSantis.
Tired of all of the trash Desantis. Not even bothering to read. How about we focus on dealing with Biden and Harris.
When’s Kurt Schlichter going to run for president, eh? He seems to have all the answers from his armchair, doesn’t he . . . oh wait; he also seems to be a fraud denier, so that’s deep state.
The Kamala - Inslee ticket will crush him
Aaaaaaah, it’s too early for this crap, with all due respect to ColonelKurt..
Does any of this really matter if the cheating by the Dems isn’t stopped?
I like what I see from DeSantis so far but there are two big reservations.
Firstly, we can’t really be sure how he would be on foreign policy. His statements against pouring ever more of our money down the rat hole of Ukraine and his statements against the WEF are encouraging signs but.....he also supported the Maidan coup when he was in Congress. We need to see him come out more clearly against the deep state and its perpetual wars and the bad trade deals plus surrender of national sovereignty by the globalists.
Secondly, he has not yet earned the loyalty of the Midwestern working class like Trump has. Trump has made it very clear he’s for energy independence, getting rid of bad trade deals, placing tariffs on Chinese goods, in general implementing fair trade rather than pure free trade, and in bringing back manufacturing. DeSantis has not shown them yet that he would do all of the above. Trump had been saying similar things since the early 90s - and people knew it. They knew he really believed in what he said and wasn’t just pandering to them because he thought it would be convenient now.
I have reached the point where I do not think either Trump or DeSantis will be elected President.
At this particular point in time, I expect Gavin Newsom to be sworn in to that office on January 21, 2025.
Thanks to the GOPe, they have elections down pat.
Read later.
To my mind there is only one fact that matters dhen it comes to DeSantis.
That Florida still uses RCV-enabled voting machines, early voting, mail-in voting.
Until DeSantis does something about that, I’m not supporting DeSantis.
And I’m wondering if he won because Deep State permitted it.
My case against Ron DeSantis is that as soon as Trump is gone. Everything they say against Trump plus other scandals will come at Ron DeSantis. They are just waiting to attack him for real when Trump pulls out. That is the way of the media.
