  1. Let's hope so. But what of swing states that have divided government?
  2. Even Trump pulling his support for DeSantis will cripple him. I am not 100% sure that he will do that, but it is too much of a risk.

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.

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.

It is said he'll announce before the midterms in order to pre-empt everyone else.

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.

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.

I am not too worried about Trump having a tantrum if he loses a primary to DeSantis.

That sounds like wishful thinking that someone you have called "the orange buffoon" will simply disappear.

If Trump runs, it has to be Trump.

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.

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

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

so run someone like DeSantis who will flip light blue states like CO or MN.

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

Not with the rules as they were. Take away the shenanigans (vote by mail, Zuckbucks, etc.), then he probably wins.
