By definition, yes. But the fact that a large portion of Trump's loyalists would refuse to vote for DeSantis if he won the R nomination would play a part, no doubt. Because we can already hear Trump and his supporters crying "they ch-ch-cheated!" if anybody else wins the primary. Kinda like my sisters' kids when they lose a board game.

You can automatically tell if a person is conservative if they have a flag in their yard.

Yet he still tooled "the best President we've ever had!" Election deniers still cling to the Big Lie because if not for that, they'd have to admit that their Messiah was such a lousy candidate that he got beaten by Biden/Harris.

What could all of these shooters have in common? It seems like it would be obvious, but I just can't tell what it is about all of this violent crime that seems to be uniform. Well, maybe we can get to that one day. In the meantime we need to focus on stamping out systemic racism, abortion, and microaggressions via mis-gendered pronouns. It's not going to go away unless people can actually describe what's going on.

I almost replied but didn’t bother. They can’t see it even when a conservative like Ann Coulter lays it out there for them.

[Hidden Content] They’re not attacking Donald Trump because they’re scared of him. They’re attacking Trump so the morons will rally to his defense and renominate him. And based on what I’m reading here, it’s working beautifully.

Right.... so with the country on the line, the republicans are going to nominate a guy that can't win the election. The Dems are to blame for destroying the country, but the Republicans are even more to blame for not putting forth a candidate who could win the election in 2020 and it looks like 2024, either.

Well, well, well..... Y'all are all about to be sounding like BLM activists now that your Messiah is calling for us to defund the police.... [Hidden Content]

[Hidden Content] Somewhere between 6k and 10k insults, depending on how easily one is offended.

You’re not wrong… but they get mad when they are all lumped in as “deplorables.” Those on the far right (like the one who just labeled you) don’t realize that they are no different than the vagina hat wearing liberals screaming in conservative faces. They’re exactly the same.

What scares me is that those people who never cared about politics but suddenly showed up to uninformedly but a hat, fly a flag, and vote Trump will go back to their trailers and not vote because "Trump got screwed." I've seen nothing to convince me that any Republican can win in 2024.

*2018

What a sad (and completely predictable) day.... this is what happens when the masses nominate a badly flawed but popular candidate to be the leader of a political party. Karma is a B. The bill always comes due, even if your supporters really, really think you should get a pass. The fact that he's leading in the polls for the republican nomination again shows that the "Great Unwashed" haven't learned a thing.

So you're saying there's a chance?

Nope... has to be at night.

Peter Steele did... He had lots of good ones like that and "functionless art is simply tolerated vandalism."

Lol.... you say "safe" like it's a bad thing. A wise man once said "don't mistake lack of talent for genius." Don't mistake "hard" for being right, either. Just because your candidate makes it hard for people to vote for him doesn't mean he's the right choice.

I’m not “the left.” I’ll bet that I’m more conservative on fiscal and social issues than you… I’m just not blinded by my loyalty to an egomaniac would-be despot.

1. This wasn’t an attempt by a failed candidate and his supporters to stop the peaceful transfer of power at the federal level. 2. More importantly, a former President being indicted for 34 different crimes is a much bigger story. If not for this, the “Trans Weekend of Rage” would have been what the news was obsessing about this weekend.

Al Capone gave out turkeys... so what are you saying?

So.... what you're saying is that Trump's attorney reached deep into his pocket of pockets and handed over $130k "just because?" Because I'll be honest..... no attorney is going to just gift a porn star $130k for the heck of it. He was Trump's lawyer. It's alleged that Trump had an affair with said porn star. The lawyer gave the porn star $130k. And that's the end of the story as far as you're concerned? The funny thing is that the Dems are just doing what the Republicans taught them how to do. Cook up some silly investigation over a payoff to a porn star (or Whitewater), then get the President/Ex-President to lie under oath when you already know the truth. Clinton didn't get convicted in the Senate, but Trump will be convicted by a New York jury after he lies under oath. One of two things are going to happen... either Trump will admit that he gave funds to Michael Cohen to give to Stormy Daniels and face whatever penalties that brings down, or he'll deny that he gave the $$$ to Cohen to give to Stormy Daniels and he'll be convicted for perjuring himself. They've got him... you just don't realize it yet.

[Hidden Content] Exactly... he was impeached for lying to a grand jury about his sexual relationship with Monica Lewinski.

Um, for what it's worth, the Republicans DID Impeach Clinton for lying about his affair with Lewinski. What you're engaging in is called "whataboutism." It's like dealing with a child (or woman) who can't isolate and acknowledge a misdeed, so instead they say "what about" and drag up a similar instance from almost 30 years ago to justify the recent misdeed. How very feminine of you.

Every conflict ever has pitted "good vs. evil." And both sides thought the other was the "evil" one. It's no different this time. The sad thing is that both sides are usually right. What's the point in continually working to get the slimmest majority in Congress and/or the Presidency, then using that position of power to punish the other side instead of legislating/governing? Look where it's gotten us, and both sides do it. And that's what neither side can recognize... the typical American is sick of it. Yeah, threatening to investigate the investigators might whip up the hardcore MAGAs or diehard Liberals, but everybody else is like "enough, already."

Here's what I think should happen. Joe Biden should pardon Trump for any/all before his arraignment next Tuesday. "We've got serious work to do here in the US and this is not getting us anywhere as a nation." Trump looks like the criminal that he probably is, but he's free to run in 2024 and without a doubt securing the R nomination and losing bigly to any Democrat.
