Go hard in the paint on social issues and stay away from hard issues like trade and foreign policy.


Certainly a valid point but not sure how much trade and foreign policy will matter someday if this country is under control of the generations that have been fully marinated-indoctrinated with the insane woke mind virus.

Social issues do matter.

Not sure why it has to be an either/or scenario.

Not a terrible strategy since suburban women, particularly college educated women, broke bigly for Biden.

The "family card" is waaay overrated IMO. All manner of reprobates can claim "family values."

If the "family card" was a viable credential, Kanye West would be sitting in the Oval Office today.

If it's such a concern that RDS is using it, where are his criticisms of Trump for using it?



I see, yes different conversation.

But, in war (and politics is war by other means) you can't win if you won't play by the same rules as your opponent. That would be tying one hand behind your back.

He got the Jerry Falwell Jr endorsement. That’s what won them over. They got their SCOTUS and Dobbs, but DeSantis is gambling on them being tired of the personal baggage, the dissing of the pro-life movement in the mid-term losses, and the fact that DeSantis has appointed very, very conservative judges in Florida. He is offering them a rock solid alternative to the drama and escapades of Trump.

BTW, Jerry Falwell Jr was disgraced in a sex scandal, and there’s serious talk that Trump had dirt on that and that was why Falwell went with Trump.

I tend to agree with you. College educated whites make up 28% of the electorate, roughly the same amount as all non-whites. College educated whites went 46% to Obama in 2012, 50% to Clinton in 2016, and 54% to Biden. College educated white women went 58% for Biden. If Trump would have captured held demographic at even 2016 levels, he would have won in 2020.

You should acquaint yourself with the term “binary”.

I figured that was the most likely. I didn’t ask if they were pastors.

But, again, I'm not criticizing Trump. I'm criticizing GumboPot.

He posts this stuff like he's on an elevated position informing us dullards about this objective truth when he's actually just trying to create clever spin for Trump.

I’m pretty sure that Trump had a whole lot of photographic receipts.

Every Christian should pray for Trump. He has said in the past he doesn’t repent or ask for forgiveness for his sins. He needs to accept Jesus Christ as his Lord and savior.


Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner

This message is going nowhere

The people that Ron is going after are regular Bible readers and church attendees. They are, to the person, very familiar with the story of King David. Even though he was a piece of crap human being, he fought for his people. And was known as the man after Gods own heart because of that

Trump is not even as flawed as David was, and has fought relentlessly for my family's core vlues. Ron is aligned with the same people that have fought against me. For decades. And whether they come out and "endorse" Ron, they all want him in the race to weaken Trump

Thats all the evidence that I need
