My guess is it is a bunch of liberals and "moderates" who have been playing as DeSantis fans. Trump is their kryptonite and they fall apart thinking it will be him again.
True...TRM said:But Trump won't be viable when he's convicted.FireAg said:Infection_Ag11 said:
But again, was ANY politician going to meaningfully breka Trump's hold on this cycle?
The % of Trump voters who would consider changing their vote EVEN IF HE'S IN JAIL come Election Day is <20% according to some polls. No politician in this country has ever had that kind of hold on their voting base.
Agree…precisely why I think DeSantis's 2024 run was too early with Trump still viable…

Do you not understand the difference between republican primary voters in Iowa versus the general do election where everyone votes?
No, I don't because that's completely illogical. Persuading a MAGA wing is nowhere near the same as peeling off true swing voters.
I know Trumpers are new to this whole politics thing, but you do understand those are two different populations right?
Congrats???
You say he lost, many upon many folks still believe it was stolen…
They're wrong.
But, I get that they cannot believe that the man they have such an emotional attachment to could possible lose. Hell, they've already started the excuses just in case he loses yet again.
They love him so they don't understand that lots of people HATE him.
I'm not in the hate group, though. I'm in the sick and tired of the middle school antics group from man who is almost as old as my father.
You're in the full of **** group, got it.
Even though I voted for him twice.
You don't hate him but dedicate your posting to detest him in any way possible. That totally checks out.
No. I'm ****ing tired of a geriatric acting like a 12 year old who is now only concerned with getting elected to build back his butthurt ego from 2020.
And I'm pretty sure that now the chances of getting rid of Biden have shrunk. Because I REALLY want to get rid of Biden.
Isn't that whole post pretty silly and more indicative of you? He hurts your feelings because of his delivery so you'll call him a ****ing geriatric and whine about a butthurt ego?
Sorry that my view of him has hurt yours, though.
I want to get rid of Biden.
You want to vote for Trump.
We are not the same.
You're right, I'd never want to be so miserable, and I don't care about you but it's amusing to see you so upset but without anything more than you don't like how he says things. I don't believe you voted for him twice and I doubt you'll ever vote for him. You sound like a concerned moderate that is trying to parade around as a "real conservative"
I would have liked a candidate that was Not Trump to run, but I'm used to the GOP running ****ty candidates by now so I guess you could say I'm resigned to it.
BTW, in 2016 I VERY reluctantly voted for Trump - I spent probably 10 min in the booth just staring at the top line (I voted downballot first) before pulling the lever for him.
However, in 2020, I enthusiastically voted for him. I liked most of the stuff he had done (covid response notwithstanding). I agree all this legal stuff is bull***** But, that doesn't mean I think he should be POTUS in 2024. He's not the same candidate in 2024 as he was in 2020.
But, I'll give you credit for going back to the insults...I needed the additional chuckle.
Thanks for reinforcing what I said.

I expect most of the DeSantis votes to go to Haley now. This will make the race much closer.
If TexAgs is any indication, I would say that 50% of Desantis supporters will vote for Biden or throw their vote away on a third-party candidate, 20% will abstain to teach the GOP a lesson, and the remaining 30% will hold their nose and vote for Trump. The only adults with any semblance of emotional maturity are the latter group.
Texags is absolutely not an indication of the general population. If you are posting on a politics board you keep up with politics more than 99% of the population. Over 90% of DeSantis supporters will vote for Trump.

I figured when DeSantis checked out some of these fake conservatives would have to reset and lose their minds.

Maybe there's just a loud minority of Desantis supporters on here that have TDS. Their heads are about to explode. I find it funny how they can be so wrong about Ron's chance for success in the primary yet still feel so confident that Trump will assuredly lose the general to Biden. They're not very good prognosticators.

Not dissing DeSantis because they all do it, but wonder why they say "suspends" their campaign? They are not suspending anything. They should say they are quitting, or dropping out of the race, or throwing in the towel. But politicians are like that, I guess. At least none have said "respect my decision."
