The problem is that we are not able to control the message so the Left gets to manipulate the narrative.

They will do that regardless of the nominee.

Correct. The next nominee (2028?) will have to figure out how to deflect attacks from the MSM.

There's a total censorship from traditional media. So he'll have to use social media (TikTok, Twitter, etc).

It can be done but it won't be easy.

DeSantis has the Jeb Bush sickness—you got to be more than a good gov. You need a personality. Jeb has a Hispanic wife and could speak Spanish but is a dull person who put people to sleep. GOP needs new blood—someone out of the MAGA/Tea Party Movement.

It’s a shame that’s what politics has boiled down to.

How many folks that would make for good Presidents will never get the shot because they lack charisma?

Did anyone care about “Charisma” before the age of Television?

“America is screwing itself by electing likes of Biden.”

You are attacking dead people who voted for Biden.

Cruel!

Yep.

Even with charisma, the fat, balding men and unattractive women can forget it.

And your brain (?) thinks it had something to do with Trump policies? If your memory is still working, it was the China lab created virus and the country went into a panic and instituted lockdowns every where. I remember the pandemic fear well. My wife’s cancer oncologist insisted she get vaccinated for covid, so we both did. By the way we never caught covid during 6 cruises after getting jabbed.

Exactly right. If your speeches are boring and you do not light up the room with your presence, your chances of winning nationwide election are slim.

You are the one who stated, “in fact there were no shortages anywhere” during DJT’s administration. Your sweeping statement is simply not true. Your insults toward me are noted. Your vaccination history is irrelevant regarding toilet paper shortages.

I was 100% correct until the China virus arrived. In my judgement main reason Trump lost 2020 because he said in spring 2020 that “this China flu will disappear when warm summer weather arrives”.

Biden played it smart. He hid in the basement always wearing a burqa. Panicked American seniors construed that as Biden taking covid more seriously and would protect them better than Trump.

If Trump had played the covid card correctly, he would have easily overcome margin of fraud in 2020.
