That’s my point, Perot hadn’t reached even close to electability and I didn’t vote for him. It would take one who had a sporting chance before I would.

If the nominee is either Trump or DeSantis, then yes. Anyone else, I probably will not vote. Unless it's Rand Paul.

If I like them I will. I'd be thrilled with Trump or DeSantis but if it's someone like Romney I'll vote 3rd Party

Trump, DeSantis or any other R that not only talks about putting America first but actually doing so will get my vote. Not this clusterfrick clown show of frick America In The arse that we have now.

If voting mattered they wouldn't let you do it.

Trump, certainly. DeSantis most likely, but I would add Cruz and Rand Paul as most likely to get my vote. Doubtful on anyone else.

Someone who likes Trump or DeSantis not being able to vote for the other makes absolutely zero sense. They’re basically the same thing

unless Trump announces he's running as an Independent and not as a Republican and the Republicans run someone like Pence.

I’m going to do what I do every election.

I vote for the person most able to carry the conservative message.

In 2016 I voted for Cruze in the Primary and Trump in the general.

In 2024 I will vote for DeSantis in the primary and if Trump wins I will gladly vote for Trump in the General.

I liked the job Trump did as President and feel he was frauded in the 2020 election.

I happen to think DeSantis is a little more politically astute than Trump and can get more done as President. But I would be proud to vote for either in the General.

I am 50 years old and my candidate in the Primary has never won.

I liked Ted Cruz, Huckabee, and Pat Buchannan the most.

Of well. I do always vote Republican in the General.

There may not be another scenario that guarantees a Democrat victory more than that scenario. That’s worst case for the GOP

It's simple, if the nominee is nothing more than a RINO/fake conservative then I don't vote because it's the same as voting for an American hating lefty.

ummm....as many great things as trump did, he alos did a lot of shitty things and failed to acchomplish plenty of things. he also is piss poor at surrounding himself with the people he needs to if he wants to accomplish what he says.

I'd vote against a democrat if Sam the Eagle from Sesame Street was running against them.
