Do you really think we don’t know that?

Do you really think no Republican experienced being called NAZI and Hitler until Trump got in?

Give me a break! Trump is not the only one - and frankly, he wasn’t an innocent little child who simply got set upon. Nope, he dished it out big time with his big mouth, and he got it back. Yes, he did it first, and so they brought out all the big guns.

I don’t want to hear about how Trump had it worse than anyone - not true. He got worse because he gave it, first. Didn’t help that he doesn’t have a perfect past, either.

Do you think Republican voters care what the media thinks about Trump or Desantis? I suspect many are choosing Desantis right now because he seems actively fighting the media and it’s pet causes like transgenders and vac mandates, while Trump is tweeting only about the 2020 election

+1

It also helps that DeSantis is winning and a lot of Republicans had forgotten what that felt like.

Trump is all about himself.

And as he gets OLDER (hint), it’s not going to get any better, in this way much less other ways.

If De Santis becomes the nominee, what do you think they are going to do with that artillery?

If DeSantis wins the primary, the media will esteem him greatly and invite him to all the festive events where there will be tea and biscuits and chaps shall engage in such sport as badminton and croquet and everybody shall be ever so lovely. The never-trumpers assure me of this.

All polls are useless. However, this is the first useless poll that has DeSantis leading nationally (he's led in a few useless state polls). All the previous useless polls had Trump leading and Trump-supporters here loved them!

You-Gov are online polls you opt into to be polled, IIRC. As such they are far more useless than a normal poll.

Desantis is speaking out against the woke left and it’s transgender and vac agendas. Trump is speaking out against the 2020 election. Many Republican voters are more concerned about the issues Desantis is talking about because they and their children are directly threatened in real time. Trump could be their champion, but he seems to only want to tweet about election fraud.

Yes, this is what one would expect after Trump’s dinner with white supremists and his calls for terminating the Constitution.

i strongly beg to differ with you.

Trump did NOT lose in 2020—and he had a significant hand in the GOP flipping the House last month, albeit by a razor-thin margin.

Moreover, PDJT, by any objective measure, is the most successful Commander-in-Chief in modern history. He presided over tremendous economic prosperity and made history by keeping us out of any new conflict(s). IMO, he would have had smooth sailing toward his rightful re-election if not for Covid leading to the Rats’ cheating with the advent of mail-in or absentee ballots as well as by other nefarious means.

Finally, PDJT has persevered through all of the relentless persecution and ongoing prosecution, sacrificing a life of luxury out of true patriotism.

He has proven to be the most honest political servant in our lifetime and absolutely deserves our undivided support in 2024 on his journey back to the White House.

Also what one would expect after DeSantis is re-elected in a massive, historic landslide while nearly all of Trump's hand-picked candidates went down in flames in the battleground states that Trump would need to win if he wants to return to the White House.

It's time to look elsewhere. These past five weeks have made this abundantly clear.

Okay, so now that Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania are run by Democrat administrations is there really much of a chance ANY Republican will win the vote “counting”?

Without those states there is no viable path to victory no matter who the nominee is.

The democrats and old-guard Republicans are proclaiming “MAGA is dead.”

I hope all conservatives realize that MAGA is the hope of America. The various points laid out in the movement are exactly what is needed to save the nation from drowning in a socialist/communist cesspool.

Can anyone else other than Trump delive on MAGA??

Are you high?

If you want to thank someone, thank Lee Zeldin for flipping seats in NY. Thank CA's GOP for harvesting enough ballots to defend the seats they won in 2020. Trump-endorsed Joe Kent lost what was once a R+17 seat in Washington. Trump-endorsed Sarah Palin's defeat means that Alaska is sending a Democrat to the House for the first time in 40 years. Lauren Boebert's win was so thin, there's a mandatory recount.

We should've won 30+ seats in the House and 2+ in the Senate.

Trump's picks cost us the Senate, 100%. And if you thought a 50/50 Senate was bad, wait until you see a 51/49 Senate.

Moreover, PDJT, by any objective measure, is the most successful Commander-in-Chief in modern history.

That was then, this is now and right now the only thing that Donald Trump is successful at is getting Democrats elected.

If you want to see this country get handed over to woke communists who are so far to the left that they make the current crop of woke communists look like moderates, keep pledging your fealty to Donald Trump and before we know it, Republicans will be losing elections in Wyoming.

I saw a couple of homemade TRUMP 2024 signs go up here in rural MO shortly after he announced. I still see plenty of Trump 2020 signs and flags. I know one house that has four Trump/Pence 2020 signs with Pence’s name cut out of them. There’s a couple of privately owned billboards on I-44 and shortly after Nov 2020, the farmer went out and painted Trump Won! and Stolen on them.

We need a candidate to address both the 2020 steal and the current issues.

The current issues can't be handled if the cheat keeps occurring. So we can't let current issues completely drown the 2020 steal message.

Can anyone else other than Trump deliver on MAGA???

If the only person in a country of 330 million who can Make America Great Again is a 76-year old man who will be 78 on Election Day, then MAGA has no future as a political philosophy.

“ Can anyone else other than Trump delive on MAGA??”

What specific issues make up MAGA?

In 2016 campaign speeches, Trump promised to 1) build a wall all across the Southern Border (that’s thousands of miles); 2) implement a “big beautiful” infrastructure program to revitalize our highways, airports, rail, power grid, , 3) bring factories back from the Third World and threaten any CEO who would move a factory overseas with a 25% import tax; 4) end the carried interest tax loophole so hedge fund billionaire would start paying taxes.

How many of those MAGA promises got fulfilled?
