ort Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Trump has made a few fairly sane and positive comments about this which stands in stark contrast to how he talks about Desantis. It's because he know Destantis is an actual threat and he also knows that the more people that enter the ring, the better his odds are.

ort Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I feel like the GOP is going to do a hard turn on Trump very soon. If they want to have any sort of chance moving forward they need to completely abandon Trump. Rip off the band aid and just suffer the fallout with his base of loyalists. I don't think it's likely to happen, but I can see Trump (possibly) winning the Republican primary... but I just can't see him ever winning the General election again. I think he's too toxic for the vast majority of people. The crazy thing about Trump is that he isn't really a Republican at all. He will 100% turn on the entire party and burn it all to the ground. He just doesn't really care about anything but his legacy and standing in the world. I have a feeling that this upcoming presidential election will be the messiest and nastiest we have ever seen. It's going to make past insanity seem quaint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turn on Trump...sure sure sure...until no Trump turns on everyone and they all blow him again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump has lost them the House, the Senate, and the Presidency in three different elections.* They can’t kick the monkey off their back when he inevitably costs them again. *Sure, they won back the House BARELY, but this past midterm should have been a BLOODBATH for the Democrats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeSantis will get curb stomped in a primary debate worse then when Christie killed Rubio, IMO. I mean, let's go back in time and remember some of Trump's primary gems from 2016... Jeb: My mother is the strongest person I know. Trump: Maybe she should be the one running then... Jeb: My brother kept us safe! Trump: I remember at least one day during his run that I didn't feel safe. I mean, I don't expect Tim Scott to do much better against Trump.

Senators don’t have the baggage that governors do and because of his race (and a few bipartisan wins on that account like the anti lynching bill). He also out performed fellow incumbent governor McMaster who he was on the ballot with by about 5 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a bit more senile now, I bet everyone else has some zingers for him. And they have had years and years and years to develop zingers and figure out how to debate him. Hillary and Biden outperformed him on all the debates. Granted, the Democrats were better going after a general election audience, but now that trump is a known quantity, Republicans should have no excuse going up against him. I’m not saying he’s gonna lose the debates. I’m just saying if they are spanked just like 2016, then that’s stupid since at least you could say no one cracked the code in how to debate him at that point.

stepee Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 I think the problem is people like this probably know they won’t win but also know that the press cycle around just attempting it is worth the effort to bolster future book sales and speaking engagements since they can say “former presidential candidate” as if that means anything.
