I'm noticing a trend where Desantis supporters think they're smarter than everyone else....almost like dems do

Okay, this is weird. Here are some of Larry's top tweets, generally from '22 and '23, some even pretty recent in late '23.
Bit of a different tone.
Thank you, Larry, very cool.
It's still so bizarre to see him now so dismissive of "swamps and establishments."
...
Larry, what happened?
Hmm.
But God forbid you call out the establishment, or be angry, or "bitch about the media!" My eyes can only roll so far here, Larry.
It's a mystery how Trump can break some people so badly. I don't get how people keep falling for the "electability" myth, either. It's also amazing how not liking Trump seems to immediately make you start sounding like a liberal, no matter how based your other views are. I've said many times, Trump is imperfect. But he's the only even semi-populist in the race, which makes it hard to argue against him without coming off as a lunatic, especially if you other opinions are so anti...*cough cough* establishment.
Every voter for the Left that comes out just to vote against Trump is probably cancelled out for the people coming out just to vote for him. Like, it cannot be understated how big his draw is by his rabid fanbase. I don't have to agree with them or even think they are particularly smart or good people to recognize they exist.
Which is where all the "electability" discussion fails. It only talks about how the Left will come out in droves against him and ignores how many people on the Right wouldn't vote at all if it isn't for him.
Because they've either given up on the system working at all or think everyone else is a plant. Or simply just love him that much for how much he pisses off everyone else. I know entire towns worth of guys who live for "WHAT UP SNOWFLAKES WHOSE OFFENDED TODAY!?!" who hadn't voted in years prior.
Its certainly a discussion worth having about his chances and how badly it might increase the other side's turnout, but they only ever present one half of the equation.
"Electability" is code for they know Democrats are going to try to steal the election. Maybe they'll go easy on us if the nominee isn't Donald Trump after they steal the election.
The idea that a particular terror cell would be willing to cheat to prevent Trump from taking office but not willing to cheat to prevent a person with a different name that their NPC firmware tells them is evil is something I can't understand anyone believing.
The election was stolen in 2020, completely verifiably and without consequences for this criminal behavior. Also, voter fraud has been going on for many many years in ways that were less outrageous and impactful: see the over 100% voter turnout in big cities.
Vote stuffing is very hard to catch with anonymous ballot. It would only ever look like voting workers entering ballots. Even the ballot-box stuffing we saw is unnecessary if you can get one person on the inside.
