You want me to list it or naw?

Florida passed an incredible amount of legislation in 2023, that's a fact.

Sorry you don't like it.

If you list it he will not read it then scream you are lying and making excuses for all the conservative legislation passed.

Sir, wouldn’t you agree he has been great for conservatives in Florida?

Wouldn’t you live to see that spread to the country more broadly with effective push back on the vile left?

I smell Steve Schmidt and his merry band of saboteurs. Any Republican that hires him should be prepared to win 2nd or 3rd place.

And this is what it all boils down to.

none of you want the truth.

You can look at the RCP average right now. The closest the RCP average was for this entire cycle was:


The day Bragg indicted Trump.


That's what this is all about. They outplayed us, and got the candidate they wanted, because they know just how stupid Republicans are.

The success of DeSantis’ campaign hinged on his new rival being imprisoned.

Yes, Ron is a good – even great – candidate. Yes, he’s an accomplished governor. Yes, he’s more conservative than Trump. But Trump’s base is immovable. Supporters of DeSantis can say “Trump put a leash on him” or they can denigrate republican voters for not being true conservatives. They can say whatever makes them feel morally or intellectually superior to the average working-class Trump supporter. But those justifications require one to completely ignore the circumstances and events of the past 8 years that have led to the galvanizing and solidifying of Trump’s base. The majority of those who have and will vote for Trump, also voted for McCain and Romney, and in primaries, Ted Cruz, Ben Carson and Rand Paul. And, who in the absence of Trump would gladly have voted for Ron DeSantis. Regarding true conservative Ron DeSantis, the GOP establishment donors who once backed him are now pouring untold millions into the campaign of Nikki Haley, a blatantly corrupt neocon who no one asked for.

It was always going to happen. You just didn't realize it. The indictments are just 1 example of about 20 illegal attempts to illegally undermine Trump since 2016.
Many of these things were unprecedented in scale and crossed a red line on their own.

Fake Russia Collusion Investigation
Impeachment ##1
COVID
Stolen Election
Jan 6 Comittee
Impeachment #2

The indictments were simply a trigger. Trump's base was never leaving him. And, a very large part of the Republican voter base was always coming back to him.

There's nothing new going on since the indictment. Americans are fighting the exact same enemy they were fighting throughout Trump's first term.

On the other side, Desantis' polling was a temporary high due to the disappointment from the midterms. It was truly hollow, as you can see. He's closer to a punchline from a charisma standpoint than someone that can attract people to him.

Desanctimonius failed because he and his crooked smile are as phony as a three dollar bill.

Republicans were always going to swear an oath of undying loyalty to Trump as a result of the indictments? I agree.
