DeSantis ready to announce

[Camp]

There is the Biden Dem campaign platform.

Indict Trump on political charges to cheat their way to victory.

Takes a lot of nerve after being proven wrong every time.

[Camp]

Some wild speculation there.

Good luck with it.

The announcement was not disastrous…but it was low energy and Repugs have a sweet tooth.

Will be interesting to see the mix

Yeah, I mean could have been better, but the fact is he’s in. It’s no longer a question of “will he run.” It will be interesting to see if he gains ground on Trump.

Par for Trump. He doesn’t make sense half the time but he connects with voters like crazy.

I don’t understand why his voters can’t see that he has no possibility of winning in 2024. Even worse, if Desantis did actually best him in the primary, Trump will absolutely run as a third party candidate just to burn the country down.

He has a possibility of winning. In my opinion, DeSantis has a stronger possibility of winning and an even better chance of knowing what to do with a win, if achieved.
Just being forceful without a sound strategy isn’t always the best plan. Trump’s response to loosing in 2020 should tell us that.

Nah, running as a third party candidate is a game for actual billionaires with large hands.

Trump would have to indisposed.

And then, some of the less cringey, less personally dictatorial GOP candidates would make a meal of No-Rizz Ron.

Face it. DeSantis is only President by way of a series of catastrophic flukes, coupled with a bit of the ole Texas, Mississippi, Georgia state legislature cheating.

It does not check out. Whatever their source is, it purports to cover only net migration from Mexico. In recent years, the carribean, central and South American migrants have become a much bigger portion of illegal border crossings. Look at official government records for,the truth.

Im going to nitpick. When you’re using a new feature on a social media site (Twitter Spaces) and you’re “appearing” with the billionaire owner tech genius, and there’s no video, and you’re pretending it’s some modern way to launch a presidential campaign, it’s up to his campaign staff and Elno and his staff to make sure everything was ready to go and working perfectly. Everyone was lazy with this. Or that’s how it comes off.

After that, he would have been better off announcing in a room full of cheering supporters and flags and babies and apple pie.

I said he botched it, that applies to all of it. His mono delivery will persist even if his production value goes up, that’s why I singled it out.

Does he sound anything like Wooden Man Al Gore speaking?

Al was really boring!

I concur. Al Gore was and is…really boring.

I’ll add John Kerry and Walter Mondale to that list. And Hillary was grating.

Bill Clinton was the best orator the dems have had lately, then Obama.

Hmmm, Bernie at his prime might have been the best. Better than Obama for sure.

Ok, what’s disastrous about it?

Ummm- the launch glitched.

It happens.

Good luck with it.

It is, admittedly. But I can see that scenario playing out should Trump lose the primaries.

[Imel]

I always think of Lindsay Graham and it’s basically foretelling what you are saying.
Something…if we nominate Trump we’ll get destroyed and we’ll deserve it.
Why people can’t see this also bamboozles me.
I don’t think de santis is doing himself any favours.
I was reading a few articles about him and most said he and his wife are the team, make their own strategy and ignore advisors.
The own goals were unnecessary he could have been a real contender.
I think the eviceration he will receive from Trump will affect his future terminally.

He’s wrong. In terms of red meat to the base, Desantis is in a class all his own.

[SeaManatee]

Trump is really testing how much ■■■■■■■■ the right will accept, but at least it’s entertaining this time since I like DeSantis less than him. Ron is basically the day walker human to Trump’s vampire political career, and now wants to take it all.

[Camp]

Desantis is on NewsMax now.

Sounds pretty good.

He doesn’t want to fight Trump rhetoric.

His policies are pretty similar.
