I think he’s fooled about 5% of the FR following. I think it may have been as high as 20% at one time, but he’s clearly out of step with the majority of us here.
You can thank the forum here for posting factual articles, and going behind the scenes of the guy’s campaign.
Did he not know that we would out him, like we did Jeb Boy, once we could see who was promoting him?
I think the turning point came when his own party in Florida refused to support him.
Yet, the dumb*ss jumps in the water anyway, when he could have been a positive force.
No, the guy is weak and I think he decided to run for president the day after his second term started.
I don’t hate Trump. I’ll vote for him again if he wins the nomination. But he’s gone off the deep end saying crazy things about DeSantis and others. New York was better than Florida during Covid? A six week abortion ban is too harsh? Taking Disney’s side over Parents and DeSantis? Going after his own former Press Secretary because she reported poll results he didn’t like?
DeSantis and our Republican State Legislators have turned Florida into the most Conservative State in the Country. Yes, Trump helped DeSantis get elected in 2018 and DeSantis supported Trump in 2020. However, there is a very real possibility that Trump will be under a couple of felony indictments or even be a convicted felon the time the general election rolls around (Yes, I know the charges are absolute BS) but having an alternative is prudent.
