re: Iowa POTUS Candidate speeches tonight- DeSantis sounded like the next POTUS... on fire

Trump left early - no enthusiasm

wow

Cult45 want to compare crowd sizes tonight?

I mean, I ain’t trying to rain on yall’s parade and what appears to be a good night for y’all, but I’m just having a hard time giving a shite about any single performance from any single person on any single day or night. If you will forgive me, it just sorta seems like y’all were starving for a positive event, and might be savoring it a tad too enthusiastically. Great, Trump had a low energy night, Desantis had a high energy night. Nope, I haven’t watched a single bit of it, but will completely take yall’s word for it. In fact, I don’t even have to do that - I’m happy just spotting Desantis the night over Trump.

End of the day, again, it’s a single event and hardly representative of anything else other than just that. Good for Desantis. He needed to notch a good score.

It’s clear where the enthusiasm is. The polling is worthless.

It’s a good sign for the DeSantis campaign and we’ve been starved of this. It got shaky there for a few weeks but the restructuring of the campaign is doing wonders it seems. Coordinated social media ads, a coherent campaign message, and going on attack vs Biden & Trump. It’s a small victory in a much bigger war. Have to see if it’s sustainable.

People that say DeSantis is boring needs to watch the vid from tonight and then watch Trump's.

No comparison.

Agree ... Trump did NOT preform well, just that nobody else other than DeSantis blew it out.

I gave Trump credit for some crowd response. I'm sure a LOT of the Trump supporters (that I exclude from the Always Trumpers cult) saw what took place and started the first phase of the switch to DeSantis tonight. I really feel that the stage is set for DeSantis to move the needle in the debates. It is in his hands, not Trumps. All he has to do is deliver like tonight and land some punches. He needs to be prepared for Christie too. I do not think DeSantis has much issue with Trump in the debates.

I’m telling you to watch both speeches. That isn’t an insult.

Don;t watch the video replays unless you want to get depressed.

Haven't noticed any of them commenting on how "great Trump's performance was!".

I doubt most will watch as they already know it's a shite show. And those few that do watch will not comment on it.

Can't say anything bad about their leader.

So the insinuation is that the speeches tonight are of such magnitude, both in terms of distinction and mediocrity relative to each candidate, and in fact of such magnitude and gravity that minds should be changed on one’s preferred candidate to support from here on?
