Ha. He’ll be the clear front runner when everyone realizes backing Trump again was a huge mistake.

Nope. Trump is beatable. So not beating Trump in 2024 means he isn't "the one". There will be someone else in 2028.

The Trumpfags (which is not every Trump supporter) will never realize this. They’re immune to reason.

I guess so much attention is put on New Hampshire to capture some type of campaign momentum as an early state. Otherwise New Hampshire is pretty inconsequential with only 22 delegates.

Oh ya? Is that why you think a guy who is at 5% is better than a former president that’s beating that guy by over 40 points?

You’re brilliant buddy

It’s a weird demographic for Republicans, too.

Buchanan won in 1996 while Lamar Alexander and Steve Forbes got a combined 35% of the vote
McCain won in 2000
In 1988, Pete DuPont got 10% and Pat Robertson got 9%

Whether you like Trump or don't he had the major support of voters and they have a score to settle.


I think Gov D would’ve made an effective president and the potential of 8 consecutive years was appealing vs 4 years max……but to me, the quoted statement above effectively sums up the bottom line to all of these past several months.

Do you think every candidate who wins the primary is the best candidate?

You’ll have to reboot your brain after that question. When it restarts, come back and post something else borderline retarded.

Not at all, plenty of dust had settled and the support for Trump remained very high when Desantis chose to run. Not hindsight in any measure. It was clear for all to see.

You can dislike and disagree for the reasons voters are sticking with Trump, but it was clear to see what would happen and was even discussed as such at the time. It was a poor decision. Plenty of proof existed then that it was a losing bid.

I think your dislike for Trump and his supporters are clouding your judgement some, and I find that odd because I find you to be a very reasonable and intelligent poster, and I am not calling that into judgement at all.

There was plenty of signs it was a bad time to run against Trump. Plenty of posters here called it when he did. You can't say that was a guess because it was clear to me then as it is clear to me now.

Take out any of your personal thoughts and opinions of Trump, but that is fact.

You’re hindsighting again.
From January of 2023:

quote:

When pollsters ask about a two-person race between DeSantis and Trump, DeSantis is usually ahead. A simple average of head-to-head national polls taken since the midterms1 puts DeSantis at 48 percent and Trump at 43 percent.

And a summation of polls from prior to the article that in the table in the linked piece above.

Absolutely and feel Ron could have pushed all of the same ideas and policy Trump is. I think we all would have seen the same chaos brought by the media and the left towards Ron as we saw with Trump. Ron is obviously way more tactful in the way he responds to attacks.

Trump is the modern day analogue of Georges Danton. He’s going to make a lot of speeches that rile people up. He’ll get the populace amped up to fight. And then he’ll wish he hadn’t.

I'm going to trust what I was actually seeing with my own eyes, and not some poll. What is happening now is proving me correct sir. No matter how many times you choose to call hindsight. lol

This is a truism that many DeSantis supporters don’t admit.
