More revisionist history 20/20 hindsight.

It matters not what Biden actually was/is, ie an idiot yadda yadda, what matters was/is the perception of voters. They bought the bill of goods they were sold, under the belief that Biden was rational and reasonable every day American, much like the rest of us, who was going to calmly bring everyone back together, restore America’s respect on the world stage, and “put an adult back in the room”. Lol boy were they wrong, amirite!? But that was *the perception* that Trump lost to. Well that and some mighty generous temporary voting allowances that were designed to primarily help the Democrat candidate.

Look. I wish trump won and could win again. He can’t. It’s just the way it is.

Maybe I’ll start a thread where people dead on behind trump can show us his path to victory this time.

I’d love to be wrong.

Yeah I remember you saying that one time, to which I responded that as irony would have it, Desantis himself would have been a loser in his bid for Republican nomination for governor had it not been for Trump’s outward and enthusiastic support, particularly at a time when it wasn’t looking good for RD. Whoever that other Joe Schmo opponent had built a pretty healthy lead. It was with the aforementioned Trump support that the tables were completely turned.

At which point you revised your position to specify “only general elections”. After which I sorta wrote it off as pure and simple hatred of Trump no matter the scenario. In the crazy hypothetical situation of, say, Trump deciding not to run again in 2020 but subsequently decided to run in 2024, you’d feel exactly the same about DT. General election loss or not.

As soon as you do so for Desantis, I’ll follow in kind. Let’s face it, yours and mine would be nothing more than mere speculation, and not even by experts in the area at that. I would be just as potentially correct as you if I did nothing more than adopt your exact explanation of Desantis’ path to victory and be no more or less possibly right than you.

Whoever an election becomes a referendum on loses. In 2020 it was a referendum on Trump and he lost. Over half the country hates him and even though over half the country dislikes Biden, they don't hate him and would crawl over broken glass to vote for the guy they dislike over the guy they hate in 2024.

DeSantis has higher favorability ratings than both Biden and Trump, and should he get the nomination, 2024 will easily be a referendum on Biden. The media has been calling DeSantis a murderer for 3 years and comparing him to Hitler and yet the majority of his own state and the country aren't buying it. That's what happens when someone is able to have good message discipline, articulate their vision, and persuade people into not buying the BS thrown at them by the opposition and the activist media.

Why? I’m not saying Desantis is going to win or is the only man for the job.

I know that thread would be tough. Really tough.

The bottom is IF DeSantis decides to challenge Trump. He damn well knows what that will mean! Just like on this Board, it’ll be a wedge between what should be a united Conservative movement. Fantasies aside. And he’ll have to take a public stand on whether or not the election -via Covid bs - was ‘rigged’. The Dems will do whatever it takes to keep ANY true America First POTUS out of power. I’ll be back when DeSantis challenges Trump.

Again, as I told you, I have mentioned that before. It gets annoying have to constantly clarify it to people like yourself.

I hate losers of General Elections. I hate Romney. I hate McCain. I hate Trump. I hate Oz. I hate Kari Lake. I hate Laxalt. I hate any Republican who loses a General Election and will never vote for them in a Primary. Only in the General when the opposition is a Democrat.

Wonderful. Trump barely squeaked by in 2016 and helped DeSantis win in Florida. How long does he get to live off of that? 2018 had no business being a Dem year in the House, given the economy, yet it was. That's on him. He lost in 2020, helped cost us the Senate for the GA runoffs, and his endorsements in key races in battle ground states cost us Senate seats that were winnable.

Trump has never united conservatives or the Republican party. DeSantis will be able to unite more of them and create a bigger tent.

Also, the wedge could be removed if a certain loser who promised he'd go away and we'd never see him again if he lost would've kept his promise.

His legal team didn't win a single case that overturned the results of the election. They were laughed out of court room after court room.

He willingly left the White House instead of clinging on to the walls for dear life.

He's not in the White House anymore.

He lost. He's a loser. Participation trophies don't exist in elections.

You don’t even know what Desantis’ “message” is, because he hasn’t submitted the first agenda proposal as to his approach to any of the most pressing issues on the national level. And that’s not a swipe at RD, it’s to be expected simply because the guy hasn’t officially announced his intention to run. But the point still remains, you can’t feasibly assert anything about his “message” relative to a Presidential platform because it doesn’t yet exist.

At this particular point in time the only thing I’m confident in saying is that either of the two gentlemen have a very uphill battle as long as the current rift within the right exists. I will unambiguously state that I will be just as certain to vote for RD as I would DT….. I follow the precept that a Republican is ALWAYS better than a Democrat, full stop.
