Trump represents an existential threat to the Washington, DC industrial criminal complex.
No other candidate represents such a threat.
I will take the existential threat, Alex.
Exactly so. Someone who will fight the uniparty and isn’t beholden to billionaires/Wall Street is perfect.
Yes
You pretty much captured my thinking. I keep trying to look for alternatives to Trump, but everytime, I find myself concluding he’s still the best option.
It’s no longer about “Trump the man”, with all of the flaws, which have been repeated ad nauseum.
It’s much bigger than that. And yes, even with Trump, things are going to be a mess, but it’s the only chance we’ve got to make a dent.
And the longer he stays in, even some of his previously harshest detractors will come to respect his ability to stand tall against everything they’ve thrown against him.
It was always a choose between the lesser of two evils.
Nixon v McGovern.
Bush v gore
Clinton and Obama were and are two great evils.
Trump comes with what some would say are evils.
What I see is his peculiar honesty.
Trump was committed to solving our problems.
The uniparty people were always about making things worse.
One Trump or the other for me
“Trump represents an existential threat to the Washington, DC industrial criminal complex.”
Yes, and another reason it has to be Trump in 2024 is the elephant in the room: they stole the 2020 election and nobody except Trump has the balls to say it out loud.
Other candidates use abstract terms like “election fairness” or “election integrity”, but only President Trump comes out and says it was stolen and calls out the traitors who stole it. People who voted for Trump in 2020 and watched that election get hijacked on live TV are furious to this day, and are not going to support any candidate too scared to acknowledge it even happened.
On top of that, they are trying to send him to prison for saying it was stolen, and there are hundreds of Jan6 protesters rotting in jail for saying it!
If Ron DeSantis or any of the other Republicans want to be taken seriously, they will have to show some outrage over this - and they are not.
The only way out is thru !
If you allow them to take out Trump. Then they use that to take out all other Republicans.
So by their deep corruption, the racist, toxic evil democrats have put us in a one person position.
Here is an unsupported claim.
“After consistent losses for Republicans in 2020 and 2022, we were presented with a question of who should be the leader in the 2024 Presidential race.”
After all, we WON the House in 2022 !
Granted by not as much as we should have - probably because of massive democrat cheating !
In hindsight, this was provably a dem scam!
“ Many of us were thrilled with the lopsided Florida elections that won majorities of Hispanics and other elusive groups. Governor DeSantis seemed a rising star with solid conservative stances and a bright future.”
