Well, if Ron DeSantis actually had eyes on 2024, they're dead now. Citadel CEO Ken Griffin said it's time to move past Trump and focus on Ron DeSantis. Ken is the real world wallstreet bets villain that's lost billions because he pissed off redditards and their rich observers. (archive.ph)

It's artificial conflict between the two as the media and establishment are desperate to stop both of them but Trump more.

Even that recent 'beef' where Trump 'smacktalked' Desantis a bit during a rally was overplayed and was probably Trump knew how ahead he was in the governor race so did a little diss to basically say he's the top dog. Trump will probably run in 2024, win and commence his revenge arc and Desantis is 2028 when everything has been purged.

My thoughts exactly. And the left better lube up because Trump first term was nice. Very nice. Second term Trump with nothing to lose is going to ass fuck them. If for no other reason now, simply out of spite. And it will be glorious to watch. Once they're beaten and demoralized and dirtied, Desantis can have Trump's sloppy seconds in 2028.

Rather than the sexual references, how I'd like to imagine Trump's second term

Just replace the opposing force with leftists, deep state and establishment

I like that scenario. Hope it comes to pass.

DeSantis and Trump are pretty much the same person. I'm not sure what the difference is.

The establishment doesn't care whether DeSantis or Trump is the nominee. They're astroturfing DeSantis because they want a bloody primary battle in the GOP. The Dems are almost certain to have one, and if the GOP coalesces around one candidate early on, they'll have more party unity and voter solidarity going into 24.

If true, a massive miscalculation. Trump had a lot of conservatives I know shaking their heads and vowing #NeverTrump, but DeSantis hasn't evoked that reaction as far as I can tell. Most* overwhelmingly approve, and I say most* because my sample size is definitely too small to rule out "pretty much all".

But who knows when Operation Mockingbird kicks into gear and installs the #NeverDeSantis firmware update in the NPCs.

Jokes on them, I'm not afraid of a bloody primary battle. May the best man (Trump) win. We'll unify after the bloodbath.

If nothing else, than to make the cunts who really did vote for Biden suffer. Maybe they'll all die from apoplexy.

Desantis presents himself better, and the programming against him is no nearly as entrenched as Trump.

The media programming is there, but what about the brainwashing? Normies currently believe Trump tried to stage a coup, whereas normies have only just been introduced to Desantis. Desantis's covid strategy paid off as his state did just as well as everyone else, yet the economy was not held back. That was the one thing the media could have tagged to desantis, and it failed.

Trump is never the type of person you back-stab. You only get one shot with him. When he comes back to power, he's not forgetting who fucked him over.

DeSantis is baby-face new, and hasn't been absolutely trashed and threatened with imprisonment by people who he thought were his friends.

I like DeSantis, but Citadel wants to get close to him nice and early to use him as controlled opposition. Boris Johnson is what they want to do to both, but Trump will absolutely hold a grudge.

One is a loud-mouthed lout who has charisma and charm. The other is a bowl of warm oatmeal with all the presence of said soggy mash.

They make a great team, but require the correct set of circumstances to get elected. DeSantis has favor in Florida, but his nation-wide appeal is waning as the scamdemic fades from everyday awareness. This is why he has put such a rush on these last 18 months to pass legislation. He's boring, he's good-ole-boy, he's everything irritating about southern rich white elites. The man is oatmeal.

Yeah, I think when all is said and done, DeSantis is the better politician for sure but I meant more in regards to their values/beliefs in what they would try to accomplish. They seem mostly the same. Although DeSantis might "get more done", he also would likely be far more willing to compromise to get things done while Trump was not so willing. The compromising isn't necessarily a good thing. Sometimes it's better to do nothing then make bad deals. I think overall between the two, it would probably still be a wash in terms of good they do for the country. I don't think either represent the radical change most people want.

lol

lmao even

Imaging getting baited into thinking Ron would run against an incumbent, much less Trump. We should know before the end of the month if Trump plans on running and I have no doubts he plans on running for 2024.
