Trump vs. DeSantis

@Copper said in Trump vs. DeSantis:

The GOP has to make a deal with Mr. Trump.

He quits politics.

They make him into a beloved former president.

Nobody said it would be easy.

Nah, he won't do that. He can't stand being "yesterday's news".

But, If all the lights are not shining on President Trump, he is like a little kid and gets all whiny and stamps his feet.

Tender mercies tantrums of Trumpian proportions.

The chatter is that Trump really crossed the line with that comment, which is probably good.

OTOH, he was campaigning for "Little Hands Marco Rubio" this weekend.

Not true.

Thought Trump did pretty well, by actual measures.

What are those "actual measures"?

He did, but at a cost to the country. Ditch the man, keep the policies.

What policies would you like to keep?

[Mik]

It would seem the party may be moving beyond him. I think alienating DeSantis was a big mistake.

I think we've trod this ground so much that only the very stupid or the very trollish would not understand by now

I don't think I've ever accused you of being stupid

1. Terrible branding.
2. Reminding everyone you have no discipline by attacking a top gubernatorial candidate popular with the base two days before an election and a week before launching a comeback campaign is...an interesting strategy."

It is not so much no discipline as an inability to view his every utterance as anything other than ultimate power.

It's a brain thing.

I'm not sure DeSantis is directionally sanctimonious anyway, even rhetorically. The Disney stuff is anti-sanctimony. There isn't much sanctimony in the trollish transport of the immigrants.

When President Trump loses the majority of TNCR, it is time to move on. LOL

[Mik]

I don't think he ever had the majority of TNCR. He was just preferable to the alternatives for many. I did not vote for him in 2016 but was pleased by most of his policies. He was a better president than I thought until the end.

But I don't want him back.

This.

Back in 2012, when he first ran for president, I called him a buffoon. I felt that way in 2016, and I didn't vote for him either. The problem with Trump is the buffoonery gets in the way of policy.

[Doctor Phibes]

The Republicans have so many things they could focus on - the economy, debt, inflation, crime, immigration, the list goes on.

If instead they decide to make this election about Donald Trump, then they deserve to lose. By a lot.

Yeah, but Trump will make it about Donald Trump.
Same thing, with the same result.
Damn.
Oh yeah, I forgot, it's been a long time since I made your day. . .
