I agree w/MTG, all you losers should move there, then well make that the border.
Druff, don't believe the hype, you are more than welcome on the right.
Unless you have a horse face, I guess, then maybe not.
Desantis is being backed big time by Jeff Yass.
I’ll give you one guess what size hat Jeff wears.
Somehow Trump is back ahead in the polls for the primary, but it's still early.
Desantis is coming to southern California. He'll be at the Reagan Library in Simi Valley on March 5: https://www.reaganfoundation.org/pro...-ron-desantis/
I would actually consider going to this, but unfortunately it's sold out. It's to promote his book. I believe the event itself is free, other than the cost of admission to the library. Wish I knew about it sooner.
Oddly there is a $50 reception beforehand, where it is noted that Desantis will not be attending. I guess he doesn't want the masses huddling around him and bothering him for an hour. Though it's not going to be a ton of people, given the relatively small venue. I wonder if those who attend his speech will have the ability to meet him and get him to sign his book, or if he's just bouncing after the speech?
He's definitely the one I'll be supporting in the '24 primary.
Tell the truth. You just wanted a picture towering over him.Quote:

I can help Druff a little bit with his puzzlement over Trump’s appeal vs DeSantis
DeSantis has that George W Bush neocon vibe. There is a Republican faction that is beginning to show resistance to Binden’s massive Ukrainian involvement
Trump rolled back GW’s mideast adventures and earned a unique reputation in foreign relations. This is very appealing at the moment with a growing number of Americans IN BOTH PARTIES.
As with nearly every modern foreign policy disaster, Ukraine can be traced back to GW Bush. It is described as GW’s “Bucharest Declaration”.
Recently your boy Bush has risen from the grave to speak in support of Binden’s efforts. NeoCons - amirite? Bush talked about Russia’s “unprovoked aggression” . This coming from the invasion of Iraq guy.Quote:
Then, in 2008, at a NATO summit in Bucharest, Romania, President George W. Bush crossed that Rubicon, committing NATO to bringing in Ukraine and Georgia—another former Soviet republic left out of the previous decade’s enlargement—at some point in the undefined future.
Look for Trump to run up the score on DeSantis even if it’s as a political prisoner.
As with all things, DeSantis being an apparent neocon isn’t his only issue. It’s complicated.
My position all along is Desantis would be crazy to run. It looks like he will, but it would likely be a mistake and it’s possible he comes to his senses before announcing. You can get behind Trump and enjoy the love of his people or run against him, likely lose, and then become irrelevant.
The added benefit is if Trump loses again, everyone says we should have went Desantis. He wins, you’re set up going forward to inherit his base. No brainer in your 40s. Trump will sing your praises the moment you drop out and endorse him.
I’m guessing he’s getting a ton of pressure from the big $ to run or else.
I think he’d have dropped the notion already if not for that. You get stomped by Trump they’ll forget you’re alive anyway. Have to resist and fight another day. Trump share of GOP base simply too big to beat. It’s his party.
CPAC polls mean nothing.
The Simi Valley event for Desantis is indicative of a growing problem with him. He refuses to hobnob with the masses -- not even the donors.
He runs out of every event, whereas Trump is approachable and acts like everyone's best bud.
This can't continue. It's turning off both donors and enthusiasts.
That poll is shit, but here’s the problem for DeSantis, Trump has 30% locked up, and nothing he says or does will reduce that number. He’s already proven to be a treasonous, fascist moron, and people still love him. The GOP (and Fox News) had the opportunity to discredit him after Jan. 6, but they kissed his ass instead. Now they’re fucked. Rupert is going to be writing a big fat check to Dominion in the near future btw.Quote:

Fox News is my default channel. Not a whole lot going on there that I don't know about. Contrary to lefty belief, most of FNC has never liked Donald Trump. They put up with him for ratings.
Lately FNC has been grooming Ron DeSantis. They badly want him over Trump. They've been doing interviews, promoting his book. The book is a dead giveaway that DeSantis will run. It's an absolute prerequisite for running. They have a show on Fox Nation called Who Is Ron DeSantis?
Daytime FNC tries hard to cover up their bias but it's all to apparent. This morning's Fox & Friends did another segment where they go in a restaurant somewhere in a republican stronghold in America and interview people on their political beliefs, choices, etc.
Guess where they were at today? Wait for it....Florida. They were down there to give DeSantis a boost. So they go inside and start asking people who they support for President, 2024.
First person said Trump, 2nd person Trump, 3rd person Trump. Everybody in the room, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, They finally cut it off. LMAO! I always love it when phony ass FNC idiots step on their own feet.
If that's how it is in DeSantis' own state, then what do you think the rest of the country is going to do for him?
Running scared like a bitch. Trump could (will) badly cuck him and it's game over for Meatball Ron.Quote:
