Vivek's statement was stupid and just pandering to Trump.
-
the decision has been stayed & almost certainly repealed by SCOTUS
-
they want conservatives off the ballot, how is it winning by literally giving the enemy what they want?
DeSantis says he (obviously) opposes the Colorado decision. Neither he nor this supporter of his replying are doing anything wrong. What's really tone deaf is acting like anything but anal rimming of Trump as being anti-Trump.
The problem with Trump is almost everyone has a formed an opinion on him, there's not really anyone on the fence with him and the strength of those feelings is far more on the anti side. The people who hate him seem to really hate him, they'd vote for the reanimated corpse of Hitler regardless of how shitty Joe turned things or how bad immigration is.
That's a weird criticism considering you are also criticizing Trump for his electability. DeSantis's abortion laws were going to hurt him in the general.
Not really, since Trump can't claim he's more electable.
We only have fuel for one trip, it's more important we stop the abolishing of slavery because we're racists or something.
Nor has their been any credible evidence of him doing it. Questing the results of an election and using every legal option to fight it isn't an insurrection, literally the opposite of it. Calling on a crowd to "march peacefully" and protest outside of the capital isn't insurrection. Not only did he not cheer for people going inside, he literally publicly told everyone to go home.
If you legit hate Trump and legit want to see his political career ended, the best thing you could do is demand a comprehensive & public audit of the 2020 election and investigate even the most minor irregularity or concern, actively work to fix any issues to make it the actual most secure election in history and have the only court involved be the court of public opinion.
If you actually want to stop the Trump train, him losing in a free and fair election is by far the best way- but then you have to face the possibility that he might actually win, and that's a risk "democracy defenders" can't afford to take.
So glad we're protecting democracy by having an unelected supreme court remove the man who got more votes than any sitting president in history, currently leading all his primary candidates combined, from even being allowed on the ballot because he called for people to "march peacefully & patriotically" to (outside of) the Capitol Building.
It would be terrible for democracy if we let the people decide.
RFK is going to take away more votes from Trump than Biden, and many Trump haters hate him too because he's "anti-vax"
There's still a huge segment of the population who HATE Trump and will NEVER vote for him no matter what. Biden can be on video helping Hunter get away with gun crimes and making backdoor deals to China while he's molesting his own daughter and they'll still vote for him over orange man because he bad.
Ironically, I think the Dems have made it impossible to attack Trump in any way if you're a Republican nominee.
Which is exactly their strategy- encourage everyone to rally around Trump in the primary while weakening him in the general. Sad that Trump is helping them by trying to nuke their best governor and damage someone who could run & win, even if that isn't til 2028.
AG seems like a big step down from Florida gov, is it not? I don't think it would be politically smart for Ron to take that position.
If Trump is smart he will reconcile and use Desantis where he's good.
Agree with Trump needing to reconcile, problem is his personality is against that kind of thing. It's especially lame since Trump is whooping everyone in the polls combined so it's not even a tight race where you could justify the attacks as somehow being politically necessary. I think he could do it without losing too much face if he blamed his competitive nature, say something like "You know me, I love winning and I fight like hell because I know you need a tough fighter to stand up for you. But this fight with Ron isn't going to help you, the forgotten Americans, so we need to stop and focus on our real enemy."
If DeSantis is smart, he'll try to reconcile with Trump and he'll provide the people a reason explaining why he was so hesitant to discredit the obviously bogus accusations levied against Trump.
What accusations has he been hesitant to discredit? I've always heard him calling out the legal attacks on Trump as being BS and saying he wouldn't let the state of Florida do that against him.
After all the attacks from Trump he'd seem like a pussy ala Ted Cruz. I think it would be smarter to say attacks from both sides have hurt our party and our chances to take America back- ask Trump if he's willing to let bygones be bygones, bury the hatchet and move forward since they have more in common than differences.
TBF Trump & his fanboys have been insane and absurdly attacking Ron since before he even announced he was running. And the Trump fanboys have been far more petty than Ron's team has ("OMG GURL, look at his shoooooes!")
it's hard to tell them apart from the Dems which at that point you need to reevaluate yourself if you're sounding like the bumfuckers party.
Reminder that Trump took DISNEY'S side against Ron and also attacked him on his abortion laws, literally attacking Ron from the left.
I think Ron's problem is that he's been trying to act as someone he's not and thus it's come across as fake. Matt Walsh had good points about this- instead of trying to be Mr. Personable he should instead own what he's good at and what he's not. Say something like "I'm not as outgoing and charismatic as Trump, I focus on policy and results like turning Florida from purple to red, taking on big corps like Disney, standing up for parents rights and against sexual indoctrination of children, etc. I stood up to the left not just with Disney but sending a small handful of illegals to Martha's Vinyard, exposing the Dems on their immigration hypocricy. Unlike Trump I hire good, qualified people and have taken serious action, making Florida the most attractive state for people to live and do business. I may not seem like a fun guy to be around, but I get things done."
So that's Miles Morales? You said Spider-man but Miles Morales is Miles Morales.
I said it was billed as must-see viewing for Endgame, not that it was...although you'd have no idea who this uber-powerful bitch is without seeing it.
Iron Man 1 is the only great one. 2 is good, 3 is shit.
I liked the 1st Thor, but the others were all garbage- man, haven't seen Dark World since it 1st came out but it must seem amazing now compared to the Waikiki shit.
Cap has to be the winner with 1st, Winter & Civil War, although that almost doesn't seem fair as it was basically Avengers 2.5.
Guardians has to take 2nd, 3 solid movies.
CM was billed as must-see viewing for Endgame.
This
Was
Gaza
Never forget.

Before October 7th you guys claimed Gaza was a modern day Auschwitz and/or open air prison. Now you’re suggesting it was a paradise. Which one is it?
He definitely didn't, he was just 1 example of the many problems- the show went on for months afterwards.
Elijah regularly reformatting the show just before it started or going on 20 min diatribes about gay sex were far bigger factors than 1 appearance by little Nicky.
There IS misogyny on the right, the left may cover up their actors bad behavior but we shouldn't.
Elijah literally sexually assaulted Sara Gonzales and cheated on his wife. Blaze's CEO Tyler Cardon tried to make Sydney keep his employee in line "to stop talking about dicks so much" when not only did Elijah have way more seniority at Blaze but he publicly claimed he was friends with Cardon.
Of course none of that has literally anything to do with the OP anyways.
They stopped the show because they were both too busy with other things, especially The Publica.
Sydney just visited Australia to see her family again after 3+ yrs. Still living in Dallas TX.
Ironically, most of the people there are probably actually anti-sematic while most of the people he said shouldn't have basic human rights because they're "anti-vax" weren't actually anti-vax.
Didn't they make Mary Sue look sane and rational by comparison?
It was so bad even Zoe Quinn was against her.
DW literally taking ZQ rejects.
That's retarded.
How is not removing yourself from the ballot "playing by their rules"? It's literally giving the dems what they want, conservatives off the ballot!
Just because Ron isn't always licking Trump's choad like VP wannabe Vivek doesn't make him a bad guy. The ballot removal pledge is just empty virtue signaling, meaning nothing.
