This could happen IF gasoline drops to 2.00, inflation below 3% and covid regulations end.

You beat me to it.

Even Romney got the Trump treatment during the 2012 campaign.

The only reason it ended was that he didn’t win.

You should stop your morbid talk. No one on FR is talking about, looking forward to, or planning for Trump to die. So, please, just stop it.

Oh bull....

Several of the desantis supporters/nevertrumpers have bought it up several times recently, in the context of what are people going to do if that happens....

And providing the answer that there has to be a backup candidate, and that’s why desantis should be considered and stay in the race.

You are still overstepping. What if is a lot different than hoping or encouraging it. No one here on FR is hoping for or encouraging Trump to die. Your suggestion otherwise should be backed up with proof or your apology.

Make your choice because at this point, Trump supporters aren’t going with Desanctimonius, Scott, Haley or Vivek.

However, Trump is the least likely to win the gen, sorry to report.

Not at all. If it comes down to it, he’s GOP candidate & there isn’t a winnable conservative, nationalist alternative, then I will support him. But just so we understand each other, I don’t think he’s the best choice in the primaries & he isn’t who I’m hoping for. Unlike most of his biggest fans however, I could never knowingly help or make excuses for electing as wacko leftist Democrat to office. I’d vote for him over a Democrat any day of the week over a Democrat. But I fear if he’s the nominee & doesn’t learn to pivot or alter course when needed & if he doesn’t learn to stay focused & not be petty, he’s going to lose this the election. I’d much rather run DeSantis than Trump, but I’m afraid folks like you are in a nihilistic mood & want to drive us over a cliff in your devotion🙄

Yawn...

Electability is the same old tired BS the establishment/elite/globalists trot out anytime the pleebs aren’t following their script...

Here is the simple TRUTH.

If Trump cannot win, NO OTHER REPUBLICAN CAN WIN, PERIOD.

Trump is the only president elected in a 2 way race that grew his support by more than 17 points while in office!

Understand this, no other president at least since 1900 (probably since the founding) can make this claim.

Not Obama, Not Clinton, Not NIXON, Not REAGAN, not FDR... NO ONE...

But somehow one of these side show also rans would win, and Trump wouldn’t? It’s a full on joke.

There is ZERO support for these nitwits, NONE... other than corporate and hedge fund/establishment donors.. None of them have grass roots support, and none of them will get it.

Trump’s support is far larger than the GOP base.. there is an overlap, but no other candidate is going to get the turnout or support that Trump has.... NONE. Why? Simple... just go look at the tucker interviews of these clowns from about a month ago now.... He shredded them all with very simple, almost softball questions that matter to the public, but are not a priority to these nitwits because they only care about what their big money donors want, which has NOTHING to do with whats good for you or this country.

They will bankrupt this country to win some proxy war with Russia, and have no qualms about doing so. You think they won’t send your sons and daughters over there to die if push comes to shove, you are a fool.

These people, all of them, have not a prayer of getting the support and turnout that Trump has, but they can win? It’s laughable.

Tired old playbook of electability, already cost the PA senate race last year.

You think the disenfranchised are going to show up to pull the lever for just another corporate shill in a suit? You are deluding yourselves.

If the GOP was romotely in touch with their base, and cared about the Country... Donald Trump would have NEVER gotten the nomination in 2016, he would have been an also ran that flushed out early.... He was the nominee because he spoke about championed things that the people wanted and cared about... things every other GOP candidate wouldn’t dare touch or say a bad word about because they knew they would be cut off by their corporate donors instantly.

Free Trade, illegal immigrants, NAFTA, etc etc etc.. Any GOP candidate worth his salt should have been recognized those items and run against them.. but they couldn’t even if they did recognize the damage they were doing because the people that fund them wanted it.

Just look at that crapfest “debate”... nothing has changed in the GOP establishment, they just keep pretending they can go back to the way things were... and their base isn’t going to have it any longer.

They put up some establishment corporate backed shill, which is pretty much the rest of the field.. with the exception of an abject fraud from head to toe named Ramaswamy, and he’s a shill too, just a different kind... and GOP will be lucky to get 62 Million votes come November 2024

You know who is hurt the most by 2020 election results? Yes! It is 66% of 2020 Biden voters! I mean the 30% cumulative inflation has devastated the lower income Democrats. The backlash will be historic in 2024. Unleouss of course senator Graham introduces another bill to restrict all abortions after 15 weeks. Then repeat of 2022 midterm crash of red wave.

Excellent issues, my good FRiend.

However the election will not be about them.

The entire gen election will be about Trump.

And, hating to be the messenger, Mister Trump has given them unlimited election "ammo".

He (and we, because I'll vote for the GOP nom, whoever) have no chance.

What an assine thing for this man to say. Reeks of desperation.

What a disgraceful fraud he is becoming.

He should have known better. It's time for him to go home and pretend to be a good governor again. Maybe us Floridians will forgive him. Because if he continues this charade, he's never going to hold office again.

Oh....

So suddenly you’re playing some high road moral person now?

Sorry, not going to play your games....

Especially since you use the tactics of the left like misdirection and moving the goal post so often, when people try to argue with you.

At this point, if Trump is DEAD, I’m still writing him in.

Yeah, you sure like to frame everyone that supports President Trump as nihilistic… and just too dumb to exist.. Now, Duh-Saintis is a shell of a man, preening like God just tapped him on the shoulder to reap the harvest planted by President Trump.. Dream on.. IF President is to be cheated then let it be by the likes of godfather 10%Joey..

If the establishment uniparty can take down Trump with phony indictments and convictions, then they can do it to anybody that they don't like.Ron DeSantis doesn't understand that, not even an inkling.

Ronny's not worried --- he's part of the establishment Uniparty --- a native son, born and bred.
