Pence is running?

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

Don't sleep on DeSantis like that

Truly scares me more than Trump

As well he should, because as I said, He isn't a dumbass like Trump. Sooner or later a slicker, smarter Trump surrogate was going to show up and do things "right". I just think that DeSantis jumped the gun. He should have waited another 4 years. Trump will be dead or incontinent by then.

He isn't running per se, but he's not not running either.

 

[Habsy]

Can you ever jump the gun with delusional people though?

Go Pence Go

True enough.

That's why the best thing that could happen would be for DeSantis to get emasculated by Donny Trump in a primary.

This is probably true.

I still fear they had their practice run with Don and they'll get the coup right this time anyway though.

Thankfully Trump's ego won't let him support a guy trying to steal his win, his party, and his power....with his own schtick no less.

 

[Habsy]

They both have huge egos and that may save the day

If Trump is the nominee in 2024 and they have enough Republican governors/secretaries of state on board who just simply refused to certify like Mastriano has threatened... who would it fall to to stop them? SCOTUS?

 

[Habsy]

Too early to think of that kind of stress. It's only 2022. Recovery still in progress.

Trump on the ticket might be the best thing to drive dem turnout still tbh.

Why would it be too early to think about something they're openly threatening to do right now?

Conversely it also drives wackos out though.

 

[Habsy]

Because I can't do anything about it. I'm already going to vote D so what difference does it make to me?

not sure they'd stay home for desantis, especially if he had trump's blessing.

Yeah, the stuff happening right now matters big time so I guess that's why I think it's not too early for the media to stress this possibility.

And by possibility I mean, the actual plan. That they've said out loud many times.

 

[Habsy]

Fair

 

[Habsy]

I can tell you this, I, and many I know, will definitely be a counter Trump vote of he is the nominee.

Trumpers seem to think they have more support than they do
