2024 GOP Presidential Race (1 Viewer)

[SteveSBrickNJ]

Many of Trump's endorsed candidates did not do well on Nov. 8th.
*
Gov. Ron DeSantis DID do well.
He won convincingly.
Yet in this OP's opinion, Donald Trump is an egomaniac who is seemingly incapable of putting "Party over Self"
Trump has ZERO chance of being elected our next president.
In my opinion, if Trump would just shut up and go away (fat chance of that)...but "if" Trump did that, Gov. Ron DeSantis would have a CHANCE to be a formidable candidate for President in 2024.
Here is an interesting article on this topic...

Whiskey, tango, foxtrot? What is this weird collection of lies, fantasies and incoherency?

It's classic Trump, though. Whoever actually wrote it was channeling him at the time.

You take one true statement (He's undeniably famous) and smear it down and around to cover following statements that range from dubious (a lot of money passes through his hands, but he's leveraged to the gills and at best isn't a truly major player) to flat out lies (Anyone who's ever seen how Melania reacts to being touched by him knows she doesn't love him, not that a raging narcissist even comprehends love in the first place) to just completely bonkers (Moloch? What? Is Moloch the NRA now?)

this could have gone in the media thread also
===============================
Rupert Murdoch “made it clear” to Donald Trump in recent days his vast media empire will not support his expected run for re-election, according to a new report.

Sources close to Murdoch at News Corporation told David Parsley, chief news correspondent at British paper i, that Murdoch has spoken to the former president since the midterm elections. Murdoch reportedly told Trump that the disappointing performance of Republicans — particularly candidates of the Trumpian variety — put an end to his political career.

“We have been clear with Donald. There have been conversations between them during which Rupert made it clear to Donald that we cannot back another run for the White House,” a senior News Corp source told Parsley.

Murdoch even went as far to say he would back a Democrat against Trump, Parsley reported:



Meanwhile, Rupe’s son Lachlan Murdoch, the chairman of Fox News parent company Fox Corporation, reportedly told Florida Governor Ron DeSantis he has the support of the empire.............

Trump really doesn't care. He'll burn the party down if he had too

I really want Desantis to announce his run a few days after Trump gets indicted.

This is actually a pretty level-headed speech so far.

Has he talked about how many more votes he got than DeSantis yet?

He's only capable of that in very short bursts.

Has he talked about how many more votes he got than DeSantis yet?

Nope. It's basically standard "Things were great under me and Biden is doing a crappy job."

Amazingly did not talk about stolen elections in referencing the midterms just said the citizens don't fully realize how badly the Democrats are doing.

"Keeping it elegant" and not using the term "FAKE NEWS"

He must have listened to his advisors. Rare

Yeah, whoever wrote this/coached him on this knows what they are doing.

Just called Hershel Walker a "fab-lee-ous" human being.

Biden response didn’t take long.

Trump claims to have “gone decades without a war - the first president to do it for that long a period.”

He was president for four years.
