We havent seen what the prime time hosts on Fox will do if Trump and Desantis both run. Its just obvious to see the media narrative that was put in motion yesterday. Fox is still controlled media. They are only in place to give conservatives a way to vent and they make a lot of money doing it.
It's not going to matter, Desantis is the guy now. Trump continues to Trump......ie, hurting himself with stupid public statements, which shores up his presidency. Would institute a decent policy and then totally ruin the effort with a social media public dispute with a Lebron James for example.
Just remember voting for an establishment republican is the same as voting for a establishment democrat. They belong to the same group and are loyal to the establishment not the democrat or republican party's. I refuse to bend the knee to the establishment again. They gain power and wealth at the expense of us plebs. We pay for their gains with blood and treasure and they laugh at us and mock us while they do it. The sheep just stay the course and vote against our own best interest supporting the establishment from both sides. I hope one day many of you wake up and see things for how they really are. I am and I support the populist movement. I will support populist either on the left or right. Once the establishment has been defeated we can have normal political debates and talk about how to make all our lives better. While we may not agree on how to do that we wont be trying to kill each other either...
I don't necessarily disagree with any of this. In fact, I pretty much think it's spot on. I'd gladly vote for a competent, worthy, decent, ethical, moral populist candidate who didn't have designs on becoming an American Caesar. Trump is exactly the opposite of what I just described. He's scum of the earth and just plays to the lowest common denominator. His most ardent supporters are poorly educated, racist, violent people, who have no interest in democracy.
I really hope you are right, but nobody inspires white, rural, disaffected Americans to go out and vote like trump does. And in 2016 we learned just how big that segment of the population is.
2016 also potentially an outlier perpetuated by Hillary as the competition, much like Trump, I think she was hard for some Left Centers to vote for. The reverse happened in 2020, Trump was hard for Right Centers to vote for. I think the same problem with likely persist in 2024 if he runs, as evidenced by the rejection of his backed candidates.
Receipts would go a long way here but you don't have them as several people on here have said they didn't want him to run again in 2024 starting right after J6. Pretty consistent message from all but a few.
All good points and hope you are right! I believe (and a few of my die-hard republican friends have suggested) that he is running because he knows becoming president again is his best chance to stay out of jail.
It's great to see you coming around but it's sad that it took a shitty mid-term for you to see the light and not the insurrection. This about face should have happened 22 months ago.
You shouldn't allow him to guilt you into deleting your post. There will be a thread 5 pages long with MAGAs repeatedly calling us pedos, baby killers and pussies and he won't say a word until one of us punches back. He then becomes morally outraged that we responded in kind and sermonizes about the way we speak to them. He's a fraud.
That's strong coming from you.......you've been air punching and name calling for 2 + years now. Are you justifying that approach because a few folks don't agree with you?
Doesn't matter. It was a low blow and I shouldn't have said it. I don't care what others say, I can only control what I say.
The issue you need to work on for your own sanity is Trump still hasn't been found guilty of a single crime. That doesn't mean he should get the nod from Republicans to run in 2024 but it sure does highlight how an entire Govt has gone after him for 6 years and still hasn't produced anything more than a potential white collar fraud case which is also in limbo. That won't change before 2024.
Funny how you don't read it until we respond. You do read it but you don't care as long as they're owning the libs. But as soon as one of us owns the reds, you become a sanctimonious prick that believes we should be cast into a fiery pit. Stop lying.
I need to justify speaking to the right side of the board in their language? LOL
Doesn't matter what the courts or the media say. You are a witness to the same things we've seen. Odd how innocently you viewed it before..... before you realized it would be costly election-wise.
True, plus she campaigned like a complete idiot. Avoiding rural America like the plague because she thought she didn't need their votes.
It does matter what the courts say, in fact that's all that matters. Otherwise, what's the f*cking point of wasting everyone's tax contributions and govt resources that could be actually fighting legitimate crime (like Pelosi's insider trading), if there was never a crime to charge him with?
No one has to own the libs.........they continue to own themselves and this is why..........Fetterman for president Is about the stupidest statement I've seen come out of anyone's mouth that wasn't Biden's.
Using the “he hasn’t been charged with anything” defense is pretty myopic considering all the Clinton hate from you and the other Rs in the past. Hilary has been in the eyes of the right since the early 90s (mainly through her husbands infidelities and issues during presidency and before.)
