Do you know who had big rallies?
Walter Mondale!

Of all the declared Republican presidential candidates, none has taken a tougher stance on the Federal Reserve than Governor Ron DeSantis. He’s criticized monetary policymakers for permitting rampant inflation. He’s defended the rights of crypto enthusiasts to own and transact digital assets free from heavy-handed regulators at the Fed and elsewhere. And he’s come down hard against a central bank digital currency (CBDC), which poses great threats to financial privacy and freedom.
Except for inflation, these might seem like esoteric policy concerns of little interest to average voters. But the issue profiles are waxing. Americans are increasingly aware just how dangerous the Fed is to national wellbeing. Elected officials, who are supposed to control the government, should absolutely be sounding the alarm about our renegade central bank.
On inflation, the governor’s conventional take is the right one. The Fed’s rampant money-printing “obviously is going to create inflationary pressures,” DeSantis remarked before his formal campaign launch. Since then, he’s also castigated Congress and President Biden for contributing to inflation through excessive spending, which pressured the Fed to monetize the debt. Prominent economists, including Nobel laureates, agree that fiscal follies encourage money mischief. Reforming the Fed and getting spending under control are necessary to protect American households from crippling dollar depreciation.

>> But Trump has bigger rallies and super hero trading cards!
And (judging by the polls) more credibility.
Put another way: if RdS is so good, why is he hemorrhaging support?
“hemorrhaging support”? How so? He’s gained 3% in average since announcing. Granted that is not much, but he mirrors Trump when matched up against Biden. Right now I don’t think anyone can fairly expect him to match or trump Trump when there is a knee-jerk response to rally around Trump vis-a-vis indictments. Trump is sucking up all of the attention. How that carries forward over the next eight months until the primaries and caucuses begin or the election in November 2024 remains to be seen. Under the circumstances, DeSantis is doing great and definitely not hemorrhaging support.
Do you know who had big rallies?
Walter Mondale!
LOL!
George McGovern had massive rallies too and we all know how that turned out.
>> Under the circumstances, DeSantis is doing great and definitely not hemorrhaging support.
“Please clap.”
So, you don’t think he is doing well against Biden, similar to Trump? Maybe you are just nervous about Trump’s inablility to close the deal.
Neither Kerry or McGovern pulled off those types of rallies
across the nation as many as three times in a day, and
numerous times per week.
No one will ever repeat what Trump did in 2020, and all the
misdirection by the followers of other candidates isn’t
going to overcome that.
The spin gets rather annoying at times. Give Trump his due,
and admit to yourself that with Biden’s charisma in 2020,
there’s no way he outdrew Clinton and Obama by 5 to 10
million votes.
The FED is the Deep States fuel.
Ballots don’t go to rallies.
No.
The 1.4 million Federal employees are the Deep State fuel.
Trump will cut their throats.
DeSantis will study cutting their throats, and fail to achieve the goal.
They don’t come in by bunches of 50s at drop off boxes
either, by law.
And the people people voting are generally still alive and
recognize their own children when they come to visit too.
I don’t understand how policy statements about the Federal Reserve increase the likelihood of DeSantis attacking the swamp and eliminating all of the elitists at the GOP headquarters. He doesn’t seem to talk about that and it’s the only issue of any consequence. So he loses on policy. The end.
Get back to us when DeSanctimonious climbs out of the bed he made with the Necons, Globalists, and the GOP-E then maybe we can talk about DeSantis being the standard bearer for Conservatives
The Fed is the head of the deep state snake.
Globalits love the fed, they have for 110 years. The have destroyed th3 dollar through it
The cbc will come through the fed.
Still doesn’t change a thing where DeSantis is concerned.
