Trump vs. DeSantis
-
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 didn't say why, he just said he wasn't running..
I missed that.
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.

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

Joe ain't runnin', IMO. He's too senile and the Basement Strategy won't work again.
Always remember, Operation Valkyrie was an act of sedition.

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.
-
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…
-
You’re right, tying it to spending is more politically salient. The base has largely forgotten who Milton Friedman was.
-
I would also focus on the fact that Lame Donald couldn’t beat Slow Joe… There may or may not have been shenanigans, but really, it never even should have been close enough for shenanigans…
-
I would also try to get Elon on board.
-
Back to the OP, I’m not sure “DeSanctimonious” has the staying power or the bite of, say, “little Marco” or “low energy” Jeb.

Sounds like he already is. He tweeted some months ago the the gop needs to move beyond trump.

Jon, how do you suppose a Hillary Clinton administration would have differed in this regard? Would you have expected different monetary decisions?
Education is extremely important.

@Horace You’ve asked this before and the answer remains no.

And he was and is right. The whole party - nation, really- needs to.

Just verifying that the “real connection” between Trump and inflation you claim, is political messaging nonsense, to be stacked with the rest. But thank you for your transparency.

Would be very nice for everybody but those who take Trump seriously. As a political tool and as a lesser of evils, he got out of hand.
