Trump already went that route with Pence, don’t see a Trump DeSantis ticket EVER!
Can that ticket carry the algorithm vote?
>I used to really like DeSantis, but now I’m not sure Trump could trust him.
I think they’re going to try to push DeSantis on him but Vivek is a much better choice. As ignorant as the youth are, there are going to be some that look at his skin color and listen to him, and they are gradually going to be convinced that he’s right.
Especially if the peace of the last decade is suddenly disrupted by another huge recession.
Pence 2.0
They talk a lot about election integrity, but I don't see them actually doing anything about it.
< snort >
For all of the folks who made that sort of reply ...
I have had the misfortune of working with people similar to Trump. I don't enjoy working with thin-skinned egotists. I don't recommend it to others.
Lots of hurdles DeSantis had to clear before he has a shot.
Time’ll tell.
Trump does not need another disloyal swamp creature for VP. Pence was enough.
‘I never really liked Trump, and I wouldn’t under any circumstances work for him.’
didn’t you read the small print upon signing up for this forum...? you know, where it says “Thou shalt love Donald Trump...’
Stupid. Trump ALREADY knows he cannot trust RD. Pence was a stinker, but PDJT didn’t know that when he chose him. If RD announces, he is stabbing Trump in the back.
No! We need Desantis to pick up the pieces after Trump implodes (either in the primary or general) if he is associated with Trump he will go down as well. There is no way Trump could win in the general he has zero moderate and independent support
Another Pence?
BTW, Clinton got less than 50% of the popular vote in ‘96, I think it was 49% plus, but he did not get that magic 50%.
Rush talked about this extensively back in the ‘90s.
Clinton was desperate to get that 50% plus 1 so he could claim that he had a ‘mandate’ for governing but it never happened.
Whoever wrote this should have used Nixon in ‘72 or Reagan in ‘84 if they wanted to sound like they knew what they were talking about.
I don’t trust DeSantis.
‘If RD announces, he is stabbing Trump in the back.’
in what possible way would DeSantis announcing a run for president be stabbing Trump in the back...?
‘...but Vivek needs more name recognition.’
who...?
Copium and Hopium of the highest order by Trump supporters
Trump and his supporters have spent months trashing DeSantis and suddenly the Florida governor will embrace Trump? Plus, the most vocal Freepers detest the supposed “deep state running dog” DeSantis.
Hopium and Copium
I do not want DeSantis to leave Florida.
Does everyone realize that if Florida turns, this nation is
done for? If you think it’s bad now, you’ll look back on
these days as the good old days.
DeSantis needs to make sure his replacement is ready.
Precisely!
“didn’t you read the small print upon signing up for this forum...? you know, where it says ‘Thou shalt love Donald Trump’...”
So THATS the 11th Commandment! Now it all makes sense!
