Trump vs. DeSantis
-
Well, it looks like President Trump has seen fit to give Gov. DeSantis one of his nicknames.
"Former President Donald Trump finally bestowed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis with one of his infamous nicknames, signaling a rivalry between the two popular Republicans is heating up as both men could run for the GOP nomination for president in 2024."
Also
"DeSantis also won't be appearing at Trump's Florida rally on Sunday, in an apparent snub."
Let the games begin!!!
-
Well… What was the nickname?
-
I saw that last night.
"DeSanctimonious."
I hope Trump doesn't run (but he will because Trump) and I pray the voters of the GOP have enough common sense to not pick him again.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

DeSantis ain't runnin'.

Really? Because he thinks Trump's unstoppable?
Somewhere I read that his "war chest" has lots and lots of cash that he's not spending for his gubernatorial run.

He didn't say why, he just said he wasn't running...Who knows, he might change his mind. But right now, internal polling of registered Republicans sez the nomination is Trump's...If he wants it.

As I have said before, the Democrat best chance to win in 2024 will be if President Trump runs again.
In two years, I think the US (and world economy) will be much better (not because the democrat did anything fantastic, but just because). And as Jolly says, it is about the economy.

He specifically didn’t answer the question in the debate with Crist. That tells me he’s at least considering it.
And while I appreciate your sentiment, George, I think I might prefer another Biden term with a Republican Senate and House holding him in check instead of a Lame Term by Lame Donald.

You might be right - many of us have been in favor of a "do-nothing" congress for a long time. But, that, not unreasonably, assumes that the GOP holds both chambers in 2024. It also assume, perhaps unreasonably, that Biden will run again.

Joe ain't runnin', IMO. He's too senile and the Basement Strategy won't work again.

If I was DeSantis’ campaign adviser, I would focus my campaign on the following points:
-
14 Days to Flatten the Curve, brought to you by the Trump Administration.
-
Trumpflation… How many billions did Lame Donald just give away? ARP was just the icing on the cake baked by the Twitter in Chief.
-
CRT and Gender Idealogy flourished in schools and curriculum under Trump’s Department of Education…
Contrast that with DeSantis’ record on these issues…
By the way, Trump enters the office as a Lame Duck…

The real link between Trump and inflation is when his hand-picked Fed chief quadrupled the number of dollars in circulation over a couple of months. Not sure that will resonate with the average primary voter.
Only non-witches get due process.

I would also try to secure some political alliances with some figures that carry some weight in the modern conservative movement but have still tried to keep Trump at arms length. Youngkin, Kemp, etc…

Meh, there were a LOT of Trump supporters that were lifting their eyebrows and getting a little angry about the Trump giveaways…
