Not sure that is completely true.
Biden ran 3 times to become the most popularly elected president in the history of America.
More popular than JFK or George Washington or Lincoln.
This primary is clearly MAGA vs GOP-E.
With a clear favorite that has a deeply loyal base polling well over 50% this far out, the only reason DeSantis entered is in anticipation of Trump being jailed or hopelessly tied up in court. There is no other good explanation.
The challenge for DeSantis is, even if Trump is in jail and steps aside, his base is not an automatic to vote for DeSantis, or any Republican for that matter. DeSantis is seen by many Trump supporters, myself included, as being too cozy with the swamp/CIA/Paul Ryan/GOP-E/Etc. A better version of Jeb Bush, if you will.
Much better than Jeb! for sure

I agree with you that this is the Desantis “lane” to the nomination. The only one.
Yeah Trump wasn’t beat...Just wait to we get all of that evidence from Sydney.
Fail. He lost.
The traitors are the Trump cultists accusing the real conservative, DeSantis, of being a rino, specifically with Democrat style attack ads that are not true. Trump, is a convenient Republican, who was a DemRat first.
>>>They have a bad case of DeSantis Derangement Syndrome, as does Trump. Ironic, to say the least.>>>>
Yeah, spamming clowns who pretend they aren’t worried about DeSantis but post 7/24 attacks. Clowns.
Spoken like a Rubio fan who never got the updates....
Any Republican candidate who is running against Trump that attacks Trump is a fool. We are done with fools.
You Desancamonius goober must be getting payed by Fox News billionaire Rupert Murdoch. Is this in Silber, Bitcoin being more modern of just plain $$$
Now you know exactly why Florida Governor Ron DeSantis had to launch without any public appearances in his home state,
and run away from the state of Florida immediately thereafter.
This doesn’t take any commentary to understand.
President Trump is beating Ron DeSantis in the state that knows the Florida Governor best.
Trump 52.5%, DeSantis 32.6%.
This should be embarrassing for Ron and Jill ‘Casey’ DeSantis, but their hubris will just ignore it.
So 583 people per event. That’s impressive. 😆
LOL!
“Fail. He lost.”
Another day, another anti-Trumper infecting a thread.
Yeah, except that I was an original supporter in 2016.
He was perfect for that time, now, not so much.
Trump is incapable of campaigning and winning. Accusing DeSantis of being worse than Cuomo is not factually correct and a Democrat dog whistle.

The 2020 election was stolen. If you can’t figure out that basic premise, there is no hope for you. As to you and your ilk’s constant mantra that ‘Trump can’t win” in the 2024 general election, then explain why the Biden regime and his minions (the corrupt mainstream press, Big Tech, the venal MSM, etc.) go after Trump so vociferously.
If the Dems don’t consider Trump their biggest threat, then why are they going after him with multiple indictments, one right after the other, in order to get him in prison rather than as their major opponent in the 2024 election. Explain that, anti-Trumper Jr.
They want him gone because they know (even if you are too myopic to see it) that Trump would win against Biden hands down and their corrupt enterprises would come to a screeching halt. Biden and Co. will end up in jail, along with the corrupt FBI/DOJ heads, etc. and they know it. You don’t seem to understand this so I can only assume you are not particularly politically astute.
Yeah, the Election was stolen...ok. So, what has changed since then. Why would Trump, all of a sudden, be able to beat Biden, under the status quo of Election Fraud?
When he was President, he controls the RNC and the campaign. He did nothing to halt any of the conditions that you believe led to his defeat.
The situation in Pa, Mich, Arizona has worsened. They control those status election mechanisms.
I think your missing something. The Deep State is going after Trump because they fully realize that that will harden support from his base. They want to run against Trump. No way in hell, do the Dems want to run SlowJoe against a more youthful DeSantis.
Trump supported the person most responsible for the last three GOP disasters, Ronna McRomney.
Perhaps, but if she's anything like our state chairman, Ed Cox (Tricia Nixon), her primary duties are to attend cocktail parties and introduce people at events. I don't think these party chairs really do anything at all.
