  1. Most of them within the last 6 months. The moment he set his eyes on the presidency, the quality dropped. A ruse.

  2. I think they wanted DeSantis to have a shot. The intent by them was malevolence, but the failure was incompetence. I half expect they did not think Trump was going to benefit from the persecution and that his base would fold. Instead, he grew it. For the second time, it appears that Trump has bamboozled them out of their selected candidate in a primary.

  4. However, he will lose half of his own base if he does that. Illusion of strength among them will be gone. Although I agree with you, he is now in a rock and hard place situation.

  5. How much tonage did they have to shift?

  6. ​ @NikoBased That does not explain why he is gaining ground. It also doesn't explain why he is gaining independents. I suggest you lose the delution while you have time. Don't be under it's spell when it finally falls.

  7. But apparently he doesn't need Florida. He made it a glorified stepping stool.

  8. With a packed field and the largest secondary candidate falling fast, It is quite likely he wins all fifty states in the primaries. Should he happen to lose a state or two, it will not be by more than a few percent. Republican voters are beginning to solidify. Ramaswamy might actually end up coming in in second place.

  9. Probably because he thought he had assurances, it was going to work.

  10. "Won"

  11. Run? Yes. Fall apart. No. Not intentionally. Whoops.

  12. ​ @MrCPPG If you thought he had the power to lock someone up willie nilly, I don't know what to tell you. But he does have firing power, and with nobody to need to tip to around for a re-election bid that kind of helps in that regard. The god emperor was supposed to be a meme. You took it at face value. He knows they're going to obstruct. They know he is the one who will obstruct them as well.

  13. There's a chance he has screwed up badly enough that if the field has a populist or two and it in 2028, that might not be his time either. I think he could be beat by Ramaswamy or Lake at that point. He will never be as potent as he once was. This kind of thing stains - mainly because of who he was up against and the damage it did. 2028 is no longer a sure thing for him.

  14. It is a possibility any of those things happen. However I think that gap is closing fast.

  15. The only way they can win at this point against him is by cheating. Also, why would I want to vote for someone they would not consider trying to cheat? Food for thought. There are no guarantees for others side. Their frenzied behavior about his Trump's re-emergence proves it. You do not do what they are doing right now. If you think you have a guarantee once again. They don't like the chance of the unknown. And I can say this confidently as an independent. Half of the independents are on board and growing. Biden is killing independent TDS.

  16. If Trump is disqualified, and DeSantis becomes candidate because of it, Biden will win almost every State, and he won't even need to cheat. Half of Trump's base will write him in. Tens of millions of votes. That would make desantes responsible for Biden 2024 and possibly the collapse of the Republican party in the next few election cycles. Half of everybody who dares to call call themselves Republican will never do so again. What little confidence there is in the republican party will be gone. DeSantis was stupid.

  17. Democrats don't decide elections neither do republicans. Independent voters do, and the independent voters at this point are 5050 on the 2 main candidates Trump and Biden. If things get any worse, it is likely to be Trump carrying a narrow majority of them. Third party candidates are likely to carry anywhere between 3 and 6% of the national vote, And mostly from disaffected lefties who are no longer going to stomach Biden. I think the only way they have to be able to stave him off is to cheat. And they don't have a 100% guarantee, as is evidenced by them trying to get Trump out before the election.

  18. "I'm not Trump." "The establishment won't try to cheat me". Those. If they aren't afraid enough to try to cheat him, I am not willing to vote for him at this point. How could I trust him if they are not afraid?

  19. Establishment republicans can win an election that they will not bother to cheat. Because no matter what party wins the same result happens in the aftermath. It's not a war on the Republican party. It is simply a war on the rogue populist faction. But what is telling is that they are trying so badly to make sure Trump is not on the ballot. Which tells me they don't have 100% confidence that they can cheat again successfully. These people are smart and evil, but they are not gods. They mess up.

  20. The states shut things down, and we were all on board with the vaccination being made until it was being distributed. He was in a rock and hard place situation and none of us complained when that was the solution. In hind site, it did not have great effects at all, but let's not delude ourselves and say that that was his intention. We all know he wasn't in the labs. He was always for vaccine freedom. That excuse has been run into the ground. And no one is buying into it anymore outside of those who already believe it, which is becoming increasingly less.

  21. ​@sorbabaric8868 Patience is also key in strategy. You can have the greatest plans outlined by the greatest strategists and still bungle it by going in too early. Patience is discipline.

  22. It is quite possible that is the case. It would be a Trump/DeSantis ticket on steroids. Watch all those independents flood in.

  23. I'd rather have a wrecking ball than someone who is complicit. I don't so have someone who is a proven learner, rather than someone who cannot understand why things are going wrong out of nowhere. At this point, we are in such Dyer straights. We don't need someone who understands how it works. Just someone who is willing to shake it down to its core. If they are willing not to try to cheat DeSantis, DeSantis is not worth trusting.

  24. Perhaps not. But likely. Given the poll trends, it is likely he is going to be spit roasted by Trump and Ramswamy what's in the next few months. He might end up in third place.

  25. It's not over till a fat lady sings, but i'm pretty sure it's ninety nine percent that he doesn't recover. By the way, if Ramaswamy does supplant him for the second place spot, he's 100% done. If he loses Florida it is done as well.

  26. The problem with that is that the cheating only works if the gap is already very narrow. Only on the first four states in the primaries has a fortification issue (Nevada). Trump leads by double digits there. Throw in the fact there are multiple candidates other than those 2 that will be on the ballot, and it is nye on impossible to sell it as well as properly fortify it in real counting time. Overwhelming amounts of votes have the potential to bust fortification. But it can be sold if it is narrow.

  27. If he can do it properly yes. If his replacement is not so good no. But I don't think he can dig himself out of a hole at this point. Not one where he is this far behind.

  28. If you are trying to get someone to disqualified, you are not confident in your ability to even cheat your way out of it one hundred percent. Simple as. It isn't rocket science.

  29. Landwise they are both pretty big in comparison to most countries. I believe Ukraine is twice the size of Texas.

  30. As for me it's not hate, it is just disappointment that a mask was there and got removed.
