LOL, once again, Ronny's in over his head. He's not Trump, so he can't just send out a tweet and torch any Republican's entire political career. He simply doesn't have that type of sway over the GOP membership. He can't even get his own state's delegation to back him up.

Reading through the article, it seems as if the DeSantis campaign hasn't necessarily backed up this claim as of yet, but if it's true, dawg lmao.

Does DeSandwich ever not try to imitate Trump? The bad news for him is that this won't work here because he doesn't have such a devoted base and a cult of personality.

DeSantis is basically a store brand version of Trump. He wants to be the same but he can't pull it off quite the way Trump can

I highly doubt DeSantis will have any success in that endeavor, but I do support anything that makes it harder for the Republican party to present a united front against the Democrats.

He's still losing anyways and I rather have Trump anyways, at least Trump is TL if deSantis wins you won't get him out like we found out in FL for 2T but if Biden loses and he isn't invisible because we all know Biden has Hunter probe and Docugate we can win 28

By the way the reason why the Eday remains close like it is, is only due to Ukraine and inflated gas prices it 4.50

Sanctions have not worked on Vladimir Putin

This is an OSR thread just like Bronz he thinks DeSantis is somehow gonna be Prez lo Trump is at 52% in primary and Biden is at 50% in GE nevermind the low Approvals we won WI and PA in the two specials we may not win every red state but we can win some to keep the S, as I said it's probably a 52/48 S and 232 DH but we have 18 MNTHS and a war and inflated Gas prices to get thru


We are gonna lose WV and win AZ, MT, MO, OH and TX and 232 DH not 56/44 D S as a blue wave really gets going but a blue wave I took IN, SC and UT off

FL is a total wildcard we don't have a clear frontrunner but Rod JOSEPH is the only one that has a donate page up because he is a Vet

If Trump is doing it , other candidates have to respond in kind to avoid being swamped with favorable endorsements for Trump .

DeSantis is not in any position electorally to make these kind of threats.

Trump is a 52% in every primary poll just like Biden we won WI and PA with 52% of the vote it doesn't matter what Approvals Biden have it's a 303 map with4% unemployment just like DeSantis win in FL due to 4% unemployment, EVERS, Whitmer and Shapiro gt reelected with over 52%, because like DeSantis FL it's 4% unemployment it's a waste of time Rs aren't winning the Prez

What is the purpose of DeSantis trying to primary Trump? Usually, primaries are supposed to give voters a choice of two different candidates.

Cause DeSantis actually cares about getting conservative policy passed and can explain how he wants to do it while Trump support is mostly about “Trigger the libs”.

So the choice is clear:


- Do you actually want to see conservative policy get passed , and have the power of all these agencies reduced

Or

- Do you wanna trigger the libs


DeSantis gives you option 1 , Trump gives you option 2. Haley gives you neither , Scott May give you option 1 and Vivek gives you option 2 as well

Seems DeSantis cares easily as much about "triggering the libs" as he does passing conservative policies.

Well in todays day and age any conservative policy that passes will trigger libs and visa versa as that’s just a function of today polarized environment.

Trump does it though not as a result of his policies but a function of his personality and wrecking ball approach
