Former President Donald Trump has dominated news cycles following his indictment and arrest on highly criticized charges last week, which operatives say make it difficult for his opponents to make a splash as he continues to surge in the polls.
Trump already showed a strong plurality among Republican voters last month, even before he forecasted his impending arrest based on “illegal leaks” from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s Office.
In the aftermath of the unprecedented indictment, which three in four Republican voters said stemmed more from a “witch hunt” than a “legitimate investigation,” Trump has coalesced a majority of support in the party in most national polls.
At the same time, he has become the focal point of news cycles, gaining comprehensive coverage surrounding his arraignment last week from legacy and establishment cable stations.
Breitbart News caught up with a Trump world operative who spoke on the condition of anonymity regarding the 45th president’s media attention and what it means for primary opponents trying to gain traction. The operative said that much like in 2016, the current primary will “be seen through the lens of Trump.”
“It’s going to be about who agrees with Trump and who opposes Trump,” the individual said. “That’s just where this is going. And, of course, Trump is going to control all of the media cycles because there’s just no one else who can create a bigger spectacle than him. There’s no one else with more charisma than him. There’s no one else who understands how to work the media as well as him.”
This was evident in Trump’s decision to forgo a remote virtual arraignment in favor of an in-person booking at the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office and an arraignment hearing in the New York County Supreme

“After the indictment, it just got 100 times harder because now it’s virtually impossible to hit Trump in a way that makes it look like you’re not piling on as this radical left-wing D.A. is trying to literally put him in jail,” the operative said. “I don’t know how DeSantis or Nikki Haley are going to be able to square that circle.”
Trump has showed the rest of us....ALL PR IS GOOD.....The lib media is forced to discuss him and keep him in the spotlight.......
Shrinkage.
They could have great ideas of their own...They do not
“I don’t know how DeSantis or Nikki Haley are going to be able to square that circle.”
DeSantis immediately TRIPPED OVER HIMSELF in his first comment and ended any chances for the White House in the 2024 election (other than possibly VP).
desantis just signed a constitutional carry law for us floridians...
it goes into effect july 1, 2023...
Shrunken spotlights to go with their shrunken balls.
I don’t think they’re comparing their spotlights. That’s a Democrat thing.
This is the DNC plan - keep DJT as the focus and suck all of the oxygen outthe room, while keeping the focus off Foghorn Leghorn and his disastrous Presidency.

The governors were in charge of their states. That’s why DeSantis is lauded. He opened up the state,didn’t he?
They want Trump to win the nomination because they know everyone will forcefully spring into action to do whatever is necessary (CHEAT) to keep him from winning.
They’re shrinking!
And some are developing EHS. No joke.
(EHS) Exploding Head Syndrome, is a disorder characterized by the perception of loud noises (e.g. a bomb explosion, gunshot or cymbal crash) when going to sleep or awakening. Contrary to the name, ENS is not associated with pain. However the noise attacks can elicit a great deal of fear, confusion and distress in sufferers. Reports of tachycardia and palpitations are also common. Despite the distressing nature of EHS, relatively little is known about the prevalence and underlying cause of the condition.
