“You’re going to re-elect Ron DeSantis as Governor of your state,” he said, finally endorsing after months of narrative suggesting Trump and DeSantis were at odds.

More confirmation that the MAGA crowd would rather have a democrat governor than get out and vote on their own.

Thanks.

What percentage of votes were swayed to DeSantis based on Trump making a statement

Probably 25%.

Why didn’t it work in AZ, GA, nor PA?

I just think it’s a pretty weak case for what you’ve attempted to sell it as. If I really wanted and put in the time I’m quite sure I could rig together a case on everyone for the type of assertions you’re selling. And that’s that. I’m not trying to make this an insult or passive aggressive swipe or anything like that. As I often try to remember to remind others, it’s just my opinion. Same as I perceive your offerings.

So about that “persona” I’m “attempting,” what tis the meaning of this? For mine and probably your entertainment purposes….

Or, in non-provocative language, supernatural. If you believe the Big Bang is a reasonable description for how the universe formed, you believe in the supernatural.

I agree if you're going to define tendency to favor the supernatural on your belief of beginnings of the universe (by definition unobservable).

But the definition I used before is about the tendency to choose supernatural explanations over empirical naturalistic ones. They used the example of dark matter as an another unobservable entity a rationalist might believe in.

But for most things relevant to politics that might pertain to "psyops", they're things you can believe in without much evidence when there's a plausible alternative with evidence.

Both of those can't be true. Spouting talking points for money isn't a psyop. a psyop has to be a conscious effort to deceive or distract.

Well, as you stated, that is your opinion. I disagree with your opinion and base my logic on Gumbopots long history of posting anti-DeSantis threads and having many debates where he bases his opinions on attack ads. If you are trying to be truly objective, then you'd have to realize those threads (similar to the ones posted) and you'd gather a similar conclusion.

The meaning, is i took you for the Trump sycophant who tried to change tactics as the "impartial observer" now that DeSantis was out of the way. I looked at your posting history and you are pretty consistent. My apologies.
