Do you guys believe that the voters Trump activated (i.e. inducted into his cult) will just... flock to DeSantis? While Trump is still alive? As someone who supports DeSantis…probably not. There’s a solid chunk of Trump supporters who will back him no matter what, no matter who he’s against. They will only ever consider Trump. They won’t just flock to DeSantis unless Trump doesn’t run and endorses DeSantis instead…which is not gonna happen. Even then who knows how many would actually turn out. For a lot of Trump’s most loyal supporters, Trump is the first person they ever bothered to vote for, and probably the only person they’ll ever bother to vote for |

Trump doesn't like people who steal his thunder. Even if he doesn't run he will not endorse him because other people like him.

There was a great Kellyanne Conway interview - I think in her thread but maybe not - and she is a true feminist icon btw - the only woman to ever successfully run a Presidential campaign (that's my snarky humor  ) where she sort of talked what may happen with DeSantis.......saying that he's so young (43), with 3 very young kids and a wife who beat cancer that he may choose to wait until he's older. She was basically saying / threatening that if you challenge Trump you will lose people you will never, ever get back and there's a longer game to think about........on the other hand I have said this before - I think Trump is running only to raise some money and then maybe will bail out actually........I am not sure these guys are in conflict with each other the way people think........I think Trump may play Kingmaker, not the crazy King in 2024.... But DeSantis has a huge following that is actually unique - I live in a Northeast blue state - I've seen people wearing DeSantis swag already - that has never happened before in US political history afaik - from a guy who hasn't even announced he's running for anything his rise as a national political figure is singularly odd - and singularly funny - the DeSantis brand can only exist post-Trump. I think it ends up a DeSantis-Noem ticket if I had to take a flying fnck at a rolling donut......  |
