. . . . . but many in donor-connected circles and establishment consultant enclaves refuse to thus far admit: Trump will be the GOP nominee for president again for the third straight presidential election.
They’re wasting their money on the dwarves.
This is patently stupid to do on purpose.
They might have more nefarious reasons, but usually good old fashioned stupidity is normal for the GOP.
Nobody is even talking about Biden not being on the Dem Primary ballot in NH.
What?
Only DeSantis should stay in and be ready to take the mantle from Trump as he is carted of for a stay behind bars.
He's old. He could die or become disabled. The cumulative effect of lots of convictions could begin to cut into his popularity, or at least that's what the people in the race are hoping. Lots of things could happen.
People bet against the favorite in Football all the time, the odds are good, but your chances of winning are not good. Still, if it pays off it pays off big.
I agree with Sen. Daines. The GOP primary season is essentially over, even though no votes have yet been cast. Like him or not, Trump will be the nominee. So let’s play it smart, for once. Let’s take a page from the Democrats, and unite.
I do wonder about the #2 slot being worth having. Should something bad happen to Trump quite soon, maybe. But close to the convention, no. Trump’s delegates would become free agents. They would be under no obligation to vote for the #2 slot.
Ok...
Now there’s no doubt of the outcome.
It’s our turn.
Primary all of the bush league chamber of commerce worshipping republiCAN’Ts and install, then elect, MAGA representative and senators.
It’s up to the guy in the mirror.
Does he have the balls to do what needs to be done?

You are correct. Biden is not on the 2024 New Hampshire primary ballot. But that’s evidently due to some dust-up within the Democrat Party. It really has nothing to do with Biden himself.
The DNC said that South Carolina should go first. No, said New Hampshire. We are going first. Biden’s team is following DNC’s wishes, and so they did not file in New Hampshire’s primary.
I’ve also read that the DNC will not recognize New Hampshire’s convention delegates. I don’t know if that part is true or not.
Most MAGA voters won’t vote for MEATBALL under any circumstance.
Foolish for you to think Ronnie will just “Inherit” MAGA voters.
Chris Christi needs to shut his fat mouth and coalesce. We can work our problems out.
Let’s go ahead and actually hold a primary vote or two. If Trump does as well as the polls suggest, the other candidates will drop out by themselves, without prompting. But right now, there’s no reason for the other candidates to drop out - opinion polls aren’t votes.
Foolish for you to think Ronnie will just “Inherit” MAGA voters.”
That is true..now. Ron would have but he met with the GOPe, after that he sounded like Linda, Barr and Pelosi. Bye bye Ron. One of the worst campaigns ever without a doubt
DeSantis' donors will probably give him until after Iowa, or maybe Florida. Then they will roll it up for the President and we will all sing kumbayah and Trump will have the pleasure of punching down on the Sea Island Dooshbaggers by explicitly rejecting DeSantis as VP.
Vote your conscience.
The rest of us will do the same.
I voted for Trump twice. I’m voting for Ron De Santis now.
First reason is because RDS is a true staunch conservative who always delivers results and ignores leftist rhetoric. The other reason is because I lost faith in Trump mostly because of his deep state hires and the petulant name calling.
Trump lost millions of supporters when he spewed like a two year old about Ron DeSanctamonious before the November midterms. DeSantis still won by 20 points of course, so Trumps childish name calling did nothing except destroy his own chances. Florida was also the only state which had a red wave in 2022.
and condemn the political persecution of Trump
rather than hanging around and hoping the dems take him out
never confuse evil for stupidity
they are ghoulishly hoping that the dems take out Trump with lawfare
despicable
Should the unlikely happen and somebody needs to replace Trump before the election, the pick should be somebody MAGA, not Meathead or one of the seven dwarfs.
