His battle with DeSantis should be fun, it's just a shame that there's a very real possibility one of them then becomes president.

Dude's literally going to run on a platform of "if I win I'll let you kill the libs who stole the last election from me" and media will be like "concerning rhetoric out of presidential candidate Donald Trump".

It's just going to be Trump vs Ted Cruz all over again.

Trump will sling insults all over DeSantis, DeSantis will talk about how damaging 4 years of Trump will be, and then Ron will like Trump's taint for the next 4 years after Trump eventually wins again.

I've been thinking about this for a week or two now. I think i've got it. I'm sure he still has allies in the DOJ, ready and willing to tip him off to what's coming and when. He's going to announce his run a week before they're ready to announce going after him, so if the DOJ keeps their schedule it can be spun as if they're doing it for political reasons and not legal ones. Smart people won't buy it. but smart people aren't the ones trump needs to win an election.

I don't think there's any chance they go after him on a federal level unfortunately. But if they did I can absolutely see that happening. Good way to try to claim it's even more of a witch hunt if it's timed that way.

Don't come up with a metaphor, use it as a metaphor.

Civil war he we come. He'll win against Biden for sure, so if thats who the democrats will choose as candidate then it'll be a well deserved loss.

Also...could the GOP be splintered enough to hurt Trump in votes?

If he officially announces a run it will fuck things up for him and the GOP. Im all for it.

People have pointed out there is stricter campaign laws for fundraising when its official, right now he is in the sweet spot of being able to do what ever he wants with his grifter donations. Shot one

As for the second shot, it will split the GOP. I dont see how it couldnt. Trumps ego will never allow for an equal. So he will do his usual elementary school name callingonly this time it will be against the other Republicans. Desantis being the other front runner will bash into him as well. Because Trump wont accept a loss ever. And the GOP know they cant back Trump again.

see the Republican primary in 2016. this exact thing happened. Trump acted the way he always does towards his opponents. i remember so many conservatives said they hated him and he was an embarrassment to the party. then he won and they all did a complete 180 and started slurping the cheeto.

With all theJan 6th stuff basically trying to throw Trump under the bus, I could totally imagine Republicans strongly pushing Trump to back out. And to pass the Trump train to someone more competent who will actual accomplish all the evil **** they want to do (whereas Trump is too stupid and cowardly to get away with the REALLY heinous stuff).

Trump running in 2024 again is like, a worst case scenario for republicans tbh. And that's got to be a sign we're in trouble.

That was eyes wide open. Things are different now. They dont have to back him the same way this time. They have other repugnant people to back.

The real balancing act is how much does the GOP fear Trump making a Truth party or something. That is where the evil calculations come in. Desantis is the one Im more worried about over all. He isnt stupid and has similar issues if not worse than Trump. And he gets horrible things actually accomplished.

One of the most bizarre things about U.S. politics is the neverending election cycle. As soon as one election is over everyone starts talking and projecting about the next one.

Here in Canada nobody talks about elections until the month they actually happen.

This is far, far detached from reality. DeSantis is 100% more dangerous than Trump, and even more explicitly and openly fascist. Trump is a fascist, but one motivated more by greed and power than anything. DeSantis is a dyed-in-the-wool ideologue. And he's smarter.

This. I've been saying it since Biden won, but I really think he's going to drop out/announce he's not running once he's made his money from his base.

Everything is about the grift with this guy - I still think that he never planned on winning last time, so this time around I don't think he'll risk being the nominee, and will say by the primaries (after a couple of years of fundraising, natch) that the voting is all rigged so he's not running, before shifting his grift to selling himself as an "expert" on FOX etc. for the election season.

Trump attempted January 6th because he's crazy and legitimately believed the crap Giuliani sold him. DeSantis doesn't have the kind of blind cult following that Trump garnered, and it would be infinitely riskier for him to attempt such a thing.

Also this. I don't see him getting the R nomination, and Trump is just smart enough to know he cannot win as an independent so he's not going to waste a ton of money on a losing battle. So yeah he'll grift, campaign and stir the pot then drop out for "family reasons" or something.
