We are seeing how a 78 year old President "functions."

DeSantis.

Stop worshipping Trump. He was the kick in the ass the country needed but time to move on.

White women will vote for DeSantis. They won't vote for Trump.
That may be true, but its dumb on so many levels considering the race hatred the Left is promoting.

Bluntly ,white women need to start voting with white men if there is any real `divide'. Doing willfully otherwise is asinine. Who else does that?

There are plenty of non-worshippers that didn't pay attention to the things you did. He deserves to finish what he started, and to be able to hand off the movement to someone he's likely already chosen (popcorn kernel leader).

59 to 14 so far. Nice to see posters moving on from Trump. And hopefully towards a 2024 victory.

Trump will be 77 in 2024 and there's no telling how his stamina/intellect will hold up in 3 years time.

You assume voters are rational. They aren't. That's why electability matters.

Agree entirely. As probably first post also shows. This is about winning that more mindless block that ignore the policy aspects, and is just large enough to give cover for `beyond the margins' voter fraud to ensure it. That's the answer to what happened. It was a bit of both.

Look at COVID.

Trump deferred to government experts. And that was his undoing.

DeSantis did his own homework - because he is smart enough to do so! - and went against the government experts. And he was right.

If forced, I would slightly favor trump

Would love to see TDS back in full swing for 4+more years

However, the media hates him so much, I could see a repeat of 2020 happening

DeSantis - as tough as Trump, smarter than Trump, vastly more articulate than Trump, more disciplined than Trump, less divisive than Trump. Doesn't continually and unnecessarily shoot himself in the foot with stupid tweets and comments

and most importantly - ELECTABLE.

I'm pretty sure Florida will be red for a while. The Cubans in South Florida are seeing all too familiar happenings in DC and with the dems.

DeSantis. He fights like Trump but with better focus, I think.

Desantis all day long!
Voted for Trump twice and would do it again if he was the nominee.
BUT, the country doesn't need the divisiveness and friction he brings. Plus, he'll be 77 come the 24 election.
As much as I enjoy watching the libs and RINOs wallow in TDS, Trumpism is done. Move on.

My honest hope is that Trump could somehow get behind DeSantis.

Trump media network would make Trump a ton of money. Trump backing DeSantis would be an unstoppable ticket. It also kind of seals Trump's legacy as the GOAT, putting America before his pride.

Not sure if his ego will allow it.

But, could you imagine DeSantis as president, and Trump as head of the FBI? He's not qualified to be AG, but maybe some special appointment as part of the DOJ?
It takes a special kind of brainwashed useful idiot to politically defend government fraud, waste, and abuse.

If people will look at the RGV vote also last year and even this immigration problem a little more creatively, maybe they can use a similar Mexican and Central American bad experience with despotism, cartels, and poverty they are fleeing to make them Republican voters too? Trump sort of did-- - why couldn't a DeSantian tone win over Hispanics coming in?

I wasn't excited about Trump at first, but I'd have voted for Attilla the Hun over Hillary.

I grew to respect a lot of what Trump did to help America. I didn't care about the tweets.

I think -- based on what I've seen so far -- DeSantis has the better shot at winning.

If the primary were today, who would you vote for for POTUS?

I know some people would rather see someone else like Cruz, but let's pretend it got whittled down to these two candidates.

Desantis only because I don't think Trump is electable. I do really like what Desantis is doing down in Florida.

So many of you have spent so much energy and time defending Trump, both because of who is attacking him and because of the hypocrisy and disingenuous nature of many of the attacks, that you've managed to blind yourselves to his many glaring flaws.

DeSantis has most of Trump's positives, plus his own unique positives in terms of clarity of communication and command of subject matter, without having anywhere near Trump's negatives.

It's a no-brainer for DeSantis.

Y'all need to stop treating Trump as if he's the only one who can save us. He doesn't deserve that level of trust or loyalty.

Best case scenario is Trump either sits back (lol) or endorses DeSantis. We have to win in 2024, the consequences of losing are hard to even measure.

DeSantis is basically like a Trump/Cruz lovechild. He has the balls and brash of Trump and can connect with the average voter but he has the intellect and debating skills of Cruz. DeSantis will absolutely destroy journalists intellectually and with facts in ways Trump could only do occassionally. He also understands how to clean house and isn't afraid of the Press, much less Democrats.

Trump simply has too much baggage and outside of his hardcore base people are tired of him or despise him. I just can't see him winning at a 77/78 year old, especially because Biden will likely not run for re-election as an 82 year old. Trump just can't keep his damn mouth shut when he needs to and he loves the attention too much which always gets him in trouble. That's not going to get better as the physical tolls of age catch up to him in the next few years. Be the Kingmaker and not the King should be his goal.

I would take Trump as president anytime but Desantis as president and Trump as a king maker and attack dog on swamp rats and liberals would be my preference.

It would be quite a feat for Desantis to get Trump to go along with it.

Being from Florida, I read this as, who will take over for DeSantis if he becomes President? And right now, your options are one of three Democrats (Val Demmings, Nikki Fried, Charlie Crist), with no potential Republicans in the bullpen.

I wouldn't think they run against each other. If Trump is going run DeSantis would be his pick for VP. That said DeSantis is Trump but more polished and able to respond better to media, public, and opponents with out turning people off. This is what Reagan was able to do and DeSantis has those qualities.
