Harvard, Yale and Princeton are the Ivy League. The others are irrelevant.

“To me, DeSantis still has that smell of a career politician.”

He certainly does. He’s just like Cruz in that everything he says is a deliberate calculation. No genuine human responses in his speaking. He think’s he’s God’s gift to the world, even though it seems like most people can’t stand him.

Trump is a populist; DeSantis is a conservative. Is the GOP either one?

"A more formal announcement is expected to follow at 6pm, when DeSantis is appearing in a Twitter Space with Elon Musk."

I'll be there, Ronlims! And asking The Greasy all the questions...

"Tell us about Christina "Ukrainia" Pushupbra! How did she avoid prosecution for failure to report under the FARA Act? How would you feel if Hunter Biden was identically able to avoid prosecution under the FARA Act?"

"Tell us how you intend to explain not being able to draw 1000 to a rally?"

LOFL, what a great day! Line up, bitches! *whap**whap**whap**whap*

I know, I know, anyone not named Trump is bad and backed by the deep state. Of course I’ll vote for Donald Tantrum if he wins the nomination. The rest of you can go ahead and throw the election to Newsom and his ilk should DeSantis win the nomination. I can just see you sitting in your basement clearing for a Newsom victory. Sheesh.

And Trump NEVER should have liked a post calling him the King of Israel.

That doesn't mean he thinks he is king of israel - there is no king currently.

It does mean he liked the kindness of affirmation for his friendship and care of Israel when he was in office.

I was not a businessman who needed to get along with everyone in NYC (lots of liberals in NYC).
The truth about the foundation & about Hillary & Haiti was not known then. Trump foundation gave to many charities & gave to the Clinton foundation on that basis. The gift to the CF was a very small % of the donations the Trump Foundation made and it was not made to a political campaign but to a charity.
If you want to say that Trump’s Foundation did not research each foundation they gave $ to you are probably correct. They were however & still are very generous to people in need and the organizations that help those people.

And Trump? Do you think also that it is a shame he has not focused on Biden?

The Bush wing now can back an R after having to back Hillary and Biden against Trump.

That should make Republicans happy..

They’ve got their Jeb to go against Trump..

Poor timing though.
Durham and the FBI didn’t do the R team any favors

MAGA voters want to bury the Swamp’s Just us with Trump

It is important to remember, the goal of the professional Republican apparatus is not to help DeSantis win; the goal is to remove Donald Trump.

100%. One reason is thatDonald Trump ended constant wars which enriched the defense industry and all the politicians who get kickbacks. Contrast that with Biden who didn't waste anytime.

It really is not a good idea to go as far and call people who are not traitors, traitors.

You may disagree with them but why make it permanent by calling them a traitor?

Just as DeSantis is poised to do now. Thanks for finally admitting ALL my points.

There are lots of businessmen in NYC. How many gave $100k to Hillary Clinton? The bottom line is Trump doesn’t care much about policy and that’s why he donated money to Hillary. Trump’s sycophants can continue to airbrush his history but the facts speak for themselves.
