No one should be running against Trump. Sorry, but this is his. He has stood against the worst thrashing from the entire government and more.. I don’t care what he says that you or anyone does not like. I don’t like what obama or joe says either. I just know for 4 years, we were headed to the best times.. it went to hill when they stole the election.
the gop has disappointed me beyond description.. disgusted with wimp when we need muscle! there is no fight in the gop..old and trained to obey.
November is a long way yet.

DeSantis is revealing himself to be more stupider than clever.

BS, Trump needs to earn is spot on the ticket. He lost 2020 and 2022, yes, 2020 was stolen but he didn't fight it. Was too cheap to be for recounts in Wisconsin, too cheap to hire good attorneys. He's been a serial failure at picking people. He relied on fleeting EOs instead of working to get consensus for legislation. He's a drama queen where everything is about him. It's over, it's pathetic.

DeSantis is a good alternative. Has successful LEGISLATION. Is a winning culture warrior as well. He's a family man, in tune with family issues and is address DEI and woke, etc., not out defending Disney, waving homosexual flags, criticizing boycotts, and picking people to undermine him. Consider RNC chair and Speaker, both his picks and recommendations. What a loss to Trump. We cannot afford this any further! Trump should take some time and start dealing with his issues--family, government documents, pornstars, whores, his disloyalty to staff, etc. He just needs to go away, the sooner the better.

Hey, maybe Trump will follow Lyn’ Ted’s lead and pick his running mate early. In Trump’s case, instead of Carly Fiorina, maybe Trump will pick Cuomo! Wouldn’t that be a fitting ticket?

You may be right, and only time will tell. If RFK Jr. does as well as I expect, I would not expect it to end like Bernie, sucking up to Skunk Cabbage in 2016, after being screwed over by the DNC.

Instead RFK Jr., assuming he is screwed over, could tell his people not to vote, vote Third Party, or, heaven forbid, vote for Trump. And enough voters would then do just that to make Trump a shoe-in.

If Ronald Herbert Walker DeSantis were on the side of truth, justice and the American way, he would have been more than happy to support Trump for Trump’s support in 2028.

But Ronald Herbert Walker DeSantis is not on the side of truth, justice and the American way.

He is a stalking horse for the Bush Crime Family, Inc. and Tokyo Rove.

And he will do whatever they say.

For 2016, Trump pledged to support the nominee and then took it back. Much better to not make a pledge only to break it. Why does this even matter if he’s so far ahead anyway?

Did he publicly announce that or are you a mindreader?

I read that participation in RNC debates is contingent on agreeing to support the official Republican convention candidate.

And last I heard, Trump has not done so. It was suggested that he might instead sit them out.

I think the RNC is wrong to ask this commitment, though they reported did out of concern that Trump would not support the nominee. Surprise, he hasn't cleared this up.

Until Trump does, let DeSantis alone as hasn't said anything one way or the other.

I’m a mind reader, just as the author of this hit piece read DeSantis’ mind.

Do you think that Trump will support DeSantis? Seriously?

Not a chance.

Recall, Trump endorsed Stacey Abrams over Brian Kemp. He couldn't bear for Kemp to win after he was so defiant against him. Trump wanted Kemp to lose so he could say, "Don't cross me! I told you this would happen!"

Kemp's re-election was a humiliation for Trump and he will withhold support from any other GOP nominee for the same reason.

Trump's word means nothing. He can always take the pledge and then later say, "I changed my mind."

“A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines.”

Somehow the above quote by Emerson seems so appropriate to this and the other lying headlines.

What’s that? You don’t believe that Paul Ryan is a senior Ron D advisor?

Honestly it's a stupid question meant to write news articles. No one wants to even admit there's a chance an opponent could win a primary.

But in politics, that's just talk. Look at Ted Cruz crawling back to lick President Trump's hand after he called his wife a dog.
