This isn’t about winning the nomination. It has everything to do with shaping the debate.

It’s what primaries have always been about. Trump ought to support the process and act like a mature adult.

This should be about issues, not some childish name calling game which appeals to some of the low IQ voters in the GOP.

What are the real issues facing the country and what do the candidates propose to do about them.

"If Trump gets the nom, and he very well might, I'll wager that the Dems and their allies do perpetual, non-stop references to "porn star hush money", "indicted", and other persuasive distractions from important (to you and I) issues such as economy, debt, China, borders and so forth."

Oh, you mean a re-do of Trump's first campaign where the Dems threw the same crap at him, and he beat Hillary anyway. It's been 7 years they've been throwing hardballs at him. I'm surprised he got as much done as he did in his first four years. The scamdemic was deliberately created to shut everything down, while they planned on how to get rid of him in the 2020 election. I don't care what anyone says, China had the most to gain with Covid, and with getting rid of Trump. It's no coincidence that China's best friend Biden just happened to end up being the candidate, who never came out of his basement, but would get the highest popular vote of any Presidential candidate in the history of this country...even more than Obama. If anyone actually believes he got all those votes legally, they need to have their head examined. The 2020 election was a coup, nothing more.

The internet has made people stupid, and lazy.

"I do think it’s funny that trump is scared out of his mind about Tim Scott."

Yeah, I'm sure Trump is shaking in his shoes.

"Anybody with a pulse could beat hillary."

Oh really? Is that why she was so astounded that she lost on election night that she couldn't even show up at the Jacob Javits Center to concede to Trump? She didn't even call in, or appear on screen to speak to the people who had spent the whole day there just for her. She had to have John Podesta do his best Ferris Buehler impression and tell everybody to go home. Is that why she cancelled the big fireworks display she had planned for her win, because anybody with a pulse could have beat her? Is that why she specifically wrote a book titled "What Happened?", because anybody with a pulse could have beat her in 2016? It's obvious that Hillary thought that even somebody with a pulse like Donald Trump was never going to beat her.

Casey is so desperate to be Jackie O. She’s so pathetic. Says a lot about who Tiny D is as well.

He doesn’t want to be the Governor of Florida even though he has 2 more years. Wonder if Jeb helped him get the law change in Florida so he can run. State legislators must got some payback somewhere.

‘Trump won in 2016 and the election was stolen from him in 2020 (true or false)?”

It is 2023 and the election is 2024.

“”Karl Rove, Paul Ryan, and the Bushies have been giving DeSantis horrible advice.”
It means he’s connected to the GOPe.”

This is so old; repeated over and over and over. What has he done as governor that shows their influence?

PHEW! Thanks. Tired of all the bumper stickers.

Have you personally met her and formed this opinion? It would be interesting to know how you came to this conclusion.

Can’t you find anything to trash his kids as well?

No one would ever dress like that unless she had a weird obsession. It’s clearly not today’s fashion.

Casey and Tiny D got married at Disney World. She sees herself as a princess. It’s why he keeps pushing this BS vendetta that he keeps losing.

Ron is humiliating himself every single day and I absolutely love it. Globalist RINOs like him need to GTFO.

Geez, no kidding?

Question unanswered.

Meanwhile, the same problem remains and will happen again in 2024. .

Trump is Hillary now electorally. Trump on the ballot is best GOTV tool the Dems will ever have.

She was delusional to think she had a chance. She’s unlikable to the max.

Because not one of them seriously want DeSantis to be anything else other than a way to get rid of Trump. If Trump were to drop out of the race, Rove and the gang would turn on DeSantis and get their Larry Hogan type candidate in.

In short, Ron is being used.

She might be unlikable, but plenty of people voted for her. If you've forgotten, she won the popular vote in 2016, but couldn't acquire the electoral votes. Had Democrats cheated more in 2016, she would have won. She didn't win because she and the rest of the Democrats were so arrogant, they thought she had it in the bag. They didn't think they had to cheat much in 2016 because Hillary was a shoo-in. They got caught off-guard in that election, learned their lesson, and in 2020, gave it their all, to the point where they had to go overboard, massive ballot harvesting, block Republican observers, screw with the printing of the ballots so that the machines rejected them, gave people the wrong type of pens to fill out their ballots, shut down counting, and dump thousands of mail-in ballots at 3 a.m. in the morning, in various swing states, which by the way, not one of those ballots was for Trump. That's a statistical impossibility. They committed voter fraud again in 2022, and they'll do it in every election in the future, because they know, no one is going to stop them. As Joe said, they have a well organized election fraud system in place.

"What has he done as governor that shows their influence?"

It has nothing to do with his job as Governor. It has everything to do with a possible Presidential run. Time will tell, if and when he runs, who from the GOPe establishment comes out of the woodwork to support him. We know who hates Trump, so one of the Republicans running against Trump for the nomination, will end up being the candidate pushed by the GOPe and the rest of the Trump haters, in order to knock Trump out of the primary race. It could be DeSantis, Christy, Hutchinson, Scott, or whoever decides they want to be President.
