DeSantis follows the mold of all Republicans of the last 50 years - he’s allowed to fight “the culture wars,” but he must remain subservient to the deep-state on all matters of political power, government control, and money.

Maybe things will change if he goes full Pence?

Predictable.

When is someone with a purpose in the profession going to analyze the effect of AI upon candidates in the lead up to primaries?

I’m absolutely not a DeSantis fan, but I didn’t think it was possible he’d disintegrate so early. Nothing has occurred which should have killed his prospects, but we see the evidence.

I believe that it’s evidence not of a campaign self-destructing, but a campaign against him with government resources & AI servers, and I believe that additional evidence is out there in plain sight for those who are looking for it (I don’t have the time).

How many paychecks did Trump pass up when he was president? Why in the heck would Melania need a hairstylist paid for. On the other hand, us Floridians are paying RDS to be our governor.

That’s the stupidest thing I ever heard . I first heard it from a far leftist and I thought it was stupid then.

Ron jumped the gun. There was no reason to run in 2024. 2028 is wide open and had he played his cards right he could have been a the front-runner for that contest. Instead he used very poor judgement and is now damaged goods.

My take is the Democrats knew they had to beef him up then let him fall sooner or later. The Democrats pick the candidates for both parties.

“Trump has the support and loyalty of the MAGA base - he created them. “

Agree, but . . .

We’ve always been here.
Our PDJT, The GOAT, gave it a name, MAGA.

He believes in us, so we believe in him.
It’s not the other way around like the Corporate Media wants to portray.

Roll MAGA, roll!

They also ran on having the best team, making the right decisions and never leaking. All lies. The DeSantis candidacy is a lie.

My take: Trump jumped into the race the day after the disastrous midterms he helped engineer thinking it would preclude him getting indicted. That didn’t work so he’s running now to pay his legal bills

Your take is A-backwards.

Nobody but you thinks that jumping into the race would prevent him from getting indicted. It's the opposite of that.

Trump has been indicted and has the legal bills because he did jump into the race.

He's a threat to the establishment, he's pro America first, he won two presidential elections (minus the cheating in the second), he gained 12 million new voters in 2020 who weren't Republican voters, and he is currently favored to win.

Yup. The Corporate media doesn't get it and neither do the Never Trumpers. They think it's the other way around. Hence they call it a "cult".

“I am liking Ron less and less as he drags this on.”

***********

He somehow keeps finding new ways of getting people not to like him. Its really a remarkable degree of ineptitude.

but, but...

“It’s too early, there should be no coronation”
“It’s months till the primary, polls don’t mean anything right now”
“biden beats Trump in the polls, but desantis beats biden.... enjoy another 4 years of biden”
“They will kill Trump to keep him from being elected” (seeing that more and more from desantis supporters/nevertrumpers)
“Trump’s running because he thought it would keep him from being indicted and pay his legal bills” (paraphrased - credit hcmama)

-desantis supporter excusses
