Didn't help in 2020, at all.

---

You know what did help in 2020 though?

Plywood covering vote counts, suspect results from suspect precincts days after the election was over and thousands upon thousands of mail in ballots that there is video of harvesting for and no verification that they are actual ballots versus made up ones.

And plenty of "conservative" or "republican" that didnt vote for Trump becauae they are more worried about what their wine club friends think or their facebook friends think versus actual reality. Plenty of those on this site.

All of which, shickingly, favored one candidate and not the other.

That definitely helped. Not Trump though.

---

Bingo we have a winner! We even have a good portion of republicans on here who are emotional and get all in a fuss about Trumps antics. They are no different that democrats

---

I agree LDP. I hope Trump goes third party so we can see who the real Patriots are.

---

Yeah woooo! Let's see who the real patriots are! I mean a split republican vote would 100% guarantee a dem victory but at least we'll get to see who's who so we can talk a little message board smack to each other.

Pointless thread. Packed stadiums don't win elections.

---

True enough, but somehow you have to convince me that a Republican who doesn't pack stadiums will have a chance against the Democrat machine.

We've seen this. All of the rallies and all this stuff doesn't win elections. It means the small chunk of American who likes him are very vocal and loyal. The other 70% who can't stand him will never vote for him...ever.

I've just about resolved to myself that 2024 is going to be a rematch, and it's almost certain to end in the same outcome.

The same RINOs and nevertrumper idiots that voted for Biden or sat out in 2020 aren't going to do anything different this time, in spite of watching this train wreck for our nation the past few years.

Worst part is that Ron could have done a lot of good, but losing primary to Trump will likely hurt his chances in the future as well.

---

Sadly I think you're 100% correct.

I'll say this slowly for the conspiracy theorists nut jobs that are f16.

I voted for the Donald twice. He was absolutely refreshing and easy to support early on.

I do not believe (AT ALL) that he is best for our country. No matter how you slant it, he will continue to be decisive and keep the division we all hate so much.

People that attend UFC fights are the lowest common denominator so no surprise they gave him a standing ovation

So you are agreeing with Hillary Clinton who would call them deplorables?

More like trumplorables.

…..because DeSantis will bring home the trophy over someone stepped into the breach, survived and is loved for it even more than when ran for office for the first time.

I'd have joined in cheering ovation for Trump if I was in attendance.

Stepped into the breach. That must have been pretty hard for him, what with his bonespurs and all.

Lol, now I see where you guys get this "Proven Warrior" stuff.

That sounds dangerously close to deplorable talk. That being said I was wondering what other audiences would be most likely to rapturously receive our erstwhile POTUS. Manufactured home owners convention?

I don't consider losing to a brain dead idiot who didn't even need to campaign, surviving.

And who are all these additional people that love Trump even more?

Over half the country despises him. Over sixty percent of the country doesn't want to see him run again.

He'll lose and the House, Senate and country will be flushed down the toilet with him.

If they credited Trump with 75 million votes, I am certain he got more. Unless people want to continue to be forced to one world govt and the green lie and fewer food options, Trump will win the general. If not, the constitutional republic of the USA is done.

Or, we can nominate someone who isn't hated by more than half of the country.

Or we could clamp down on theft.

I'm getting sick of Janes Addiction playing in the background every time I see a Democrat talking.

Maybe Desantis can win the Republican primary all by him little self (5'7")

*What a ridicilous comment and/or take*

"Conservatives" that are happy to vote for a gun grabber... pitiful.

On top of that, I think the rallies make many who don't attend his rallies hate him even more! So not only are they not a positive, they may even be a net negative.

I completely respect LDP as he is one who actually puts his money where is his mouth is. With people like LDP leading the Republican party in Collin County, I believe they are on the right path.

I also believe that the Trump '24 campaign will lead us to Biden winning in 2024, as riduclous as that sounds. How could a guy who is letting his 53 year old son live in the White House smoke/snort cocaine win? How could a guy who cannot even formulate sentences win? How could a guy who cannot help but grope young girls, smell of their hair, win?

I sure hope lobbyists like LDP are pushing the 'anything but Trump' narrative whenever they are talking to Republicans.

That's a pretty impressive response for a president trying to reach 50% in his PRIMARY for his second term...

Let me guess, you're a UFC fight attendee.

No, I am not. Never been to professional wrestling, UFC, professional boxing nor any similar events. But I do not call the people attending "the lowest common denominator". It is transparently obvious you intentionally used that phrase in a very derogatory manner and in the exact same vein as the Hillary Clinton comment.

---

Why don't you attend? Not your crowd? Why not?

I don't find it entertaining.

Nope. Had nothing to do with Hilary but move try.

I didn't say it had anything to do with Hillary Clinton, just your comment was similar to the comment Hillary made.

DeSantis maybe the GOAT here but he would never receive the same treatment of support that Trump gets. It's not even close.

I know this alone does not elect the president but it sure doesn't hurt and I guarantee you DeSantis or anyone else wishes they could get the same result.
This is from last night

Trump will not win. Too much baggage. Did you not learn from midterms?

I actually think the point above about the Trump rallies hurting as much or more than they help from a general election perspective is spot on. There's a visceral repulsiveness that even folks in the middle are feeling

Which is why I believe if it's Biden v Trump 2.0, Trump will lose by a margin that would shock some on this Board, and it has nothing to do with cheating.
