Trump will not be allowed to run 3rd party after participating in a Republican primary for President.
From people I know working in state GOPs, every Republican legislature in every state that matters is planning on pushing sore loser laws soon to prevent Trump from fucking us in that situation.
Trump won't be able to bully the party with this threat.
There is still 1.5 more years before the primaries even start.
DeSantis has plenty of time to boost his name recognition.
There is also plenty of time for Trump to seriously erode his support by constantly endorsing terrible nominees who lose, constantly focusing on the stolen election instead of the many current issues plaguing the U.S.
You might be surprised in 2024 when the primaries do come around and DeSantis manages to win both the Iowa caucus and the NH primary.
DeSantis will receive so much money from big GOP donors that it will make your head spin.
McConnell and the establishment don't like DeSantis too much but they will fight like hell to ensure a DeSantis primary win over Trump anyday.
Trump has a very difficult path to the nomination in front of him because there is a serious alternative to his policies without the baggage available and too many powerful people in the GOP will stop at nothing to ensure Trump doesn't become the nominee ever again.
It is not a good idea to just talk about the stolen elections and not work on actually fixing the problem by electing politicians who will actually get election security laws passed.
Trump constantly screams about the election while endorsing politicians who don't really care about election integrity or even worse by endorsing politicians who cannot win the general election. That is the problem with him.
Also when inflation is this high and gas prices are this high and the woke are taking over every institution, it is stupid to not talk about these issues as well.
Anyone who runs on only the stolen election in 2022 is running an unserious campaign and doesn't even want to win.
The only people I see running such a shitty campaign are Kari Lake and Blake Masters in Arizona. Blake used to run a pretty decent campaign until he got the Trump endorsement and now he only focuses on 2020.
Trump has been steadily losing ground while DeSantis gains it.
The primary season is not until over a year from now, and people are steadily moving on from Trump. A LOT of people like me who supported him last time, won't do so again because losers and flawed candidates don't get second chances.
This will be a shock to some people but Trump is a paper tiger.
The man didn't even fire Fauci because he feared it would cause too much of a backlash.
I think it is possible that Trump might not even run if DeSantis wins Florida governor by 10+points.
If Trump runs and also loses the primaries, his eventual reaction will be surprising to many people. I don't think he will screw Desantis and the party to risk another Dem win.
He is not having a tantrum over Perdue losing to Kemp. That was a major L and people expected Trump to go to Georgia and campaign for Stacy Abrams.
That is not happening.
From what I hear from people I know who work in the GOP, McConnell said that he made sure that "Trump learns his place".
I am not too worried about Trump having a tantrum if he loses a primary to DeSantis.
I despise McConnell on many things but he sadly excels in manipulating and eventually controlling Trump to do what he wants.
Trump limp dicked China the moment the polling and the press made him think the trade was was a net loser for him politically.
Trump only cares about what benefits him personally and doesn't have any values or principles. He left office with a whimper after stirring up a shit storm because he was afraid that he'd end up in prison if he kept pushing.
Trump has always been all talk. He's not going to big dick anything like Antonio thinks he is.
If Trump gets the nomination, we'll end up with a President Harris. Trump will bring tons of people out to the polls just to vote against him.
And for all of the people who bitch and complain about stolen elections need to realize that there is a limit to how many fake ballots that can be made and cast; therefore, running a loser like Trump who would have only barely squeaked a victory had the invalid votes never been cast is a dumb idea because you only need a few thousand ballots in a few key places to swing the election. The Dems don't have the necessary ground game to pull this stunt everywhere, so run someone like DeSantis who will flip light blue states like CO or MN.

He almost won in a pandemic and with the worst economic crisis in decades. With the mess the Democrats are now making (if they do not fix it), it is literally impossible for Trump to lose.

Yes, the whole "why vote, they'll steal it anyway" is very, very stupid.

He might win CO, but I am not at all convinced that DS has the same strong blue-collar appeal that Trump does.

Stolen elections are a current issue plaguing the U.S.

Any business man should know you're only as good as your last deal, and his last one was shit

It might not be an accurate statement, but I don't think this is a deliberate falsehood.
Oh boy, more incestuous "it's a private club except when it's not" uniparty control over state governments? What a brilliant, principled strategy.
If Trump runs, it has to be Trump. In a game of chicken, Trump will always win, because he's willing to go to extraordinary lengths.

It is said he'll announce before the midterms in order to pre-empt everyone else.
No one expected that, because it's crazy. And it's one thing for one of his candidates to lose, quite another for himself to lose.
That sounds like wishful thinking that someone you have called "the orange buffoon" will simply disappear.

I meant "us" as in all voters who still want Trump's good policies but without the baggage of Trump.
