Does the "I talked to Charlie Brown" approach work for you?

Personally, when I hear the personal anecdotes during a debate or speech, I roll my eyes. I guess I just consider myself unique, and don't want to be lumped together with some rando. This is a knock against all politicians.

You’re not unique. You’re what’s known here as an above the fray moderate and there are millions of you.

The only time it worked tonight is when DeSantis brought up Newsom’s father-in-law

"I talked to Charlie Brown"




No idea what that's supposed to mean. Context?

The facial expressions between the two greatly favored Newsom. DeSantis looked like he was thinking "oh shite, how am I going to respond to this" or "damn, I'm busted."


You’re right

You’re either for the Republican (Trump) or you’re for the Democrat (Biden/Newsom). There’s no two ways about it. And I’m certainly not catching a “for Trump” vibe from you. So unfortunately that leaves us with but one conclusion.

Candidates love to talk about the people they met on the campaign trail and name names. Such as "just this morning I was talking to Jane Doe and she was telling me about how she had to tell the check out lady at Kroger, who was working a 28 hour shift to support her 3 kids, to put some items back because she couldn't afford the inflated grocery prices."

Oooh, ok. The personal testimony of meeting ‘the little people’ that’s totally unsubstantiated & never scripted by the campaign if caught on video.

Yeah, totes believable.

And the conclusion is you are incapable of thinking outside of very simple binary positions.

I challenge you to post a screenshot where DeSantis looks more charismatic than Newson.

I’m for my family and America, which sadly, is in danger under either of these options.

The left want our way of life destroyed, and Trump will help them destroy us as long as the marxists says kind words about him.

I see a guy that bleaches his a-hole while the other guy lays out facts.


I'll guess you're a fan of the bleach.

After putting on your “brutally honest reality” hat, as best you can, you’re still of the opinion that the Republican primary is up in the air? So much so that continued divisiveness amongst the right is warranted?? Because what I’m observing with my eyes is folks more interested in destroying Trump than the Republican candidate defeating the Democratic candidate. And those apparent priorities seem pretty messed up to me. Again, I’m always willing to acknowledge mine is but a mere single opinion - something not many others would be willing to admit.

You realize you sycophants have been doing this for nearly 2 years now and every single one of you cult members are still attacking anyone that dares not bow to Trump.

The complete willful ignorance and hypocrisy by the hive mind trailer trash is astounding.

And you truthfully believe that I personally qualify for the description that you outlined, and you can back it up? Or is it possible that you’re simply lashing out with as nasty a stereotypical description that you can manage at the moment? Because if you can’t articulate exactly why you’ve leveled that insult at me, then we must agree - it’s you who has the problem here.

A lot of Trumpfags haven’t figured it out. But there’s still literally the entire primary left.
