Harrison Bergeron said:Okay. Let's grant your correct. What specifically is Trump's plan to ensure the 2024 election is not rigged?muddybrazos said:It's hard to win a rigged election.Harrison Bergeron said:1. Trump barely beat one of the least likely politicians in history.Doc Holliday said:What helped Trump is that he said sh i t that people were thinking but we're too afraid to say and it gave him loads of publicity.Harrison Bergeron said:Trump is attacking DeSantis only from the left ... when his not making moronic comments.Doc Holliday said:I didn't say he was moderate, but his campaign messaging is.sombear said:What exactly has RDS been moderate on? He's actually getting hammered by the moderate, corporate types for campaigning to the right of Trump.Doc Holliday said:He's basically hired a Jeb Bush campaign blueprint and it absolutely sucks.whiterock said:RDS has struggled. It is really, really, really hard to step up from state politics to national politics. He hasta get better. And he may do exactly that. Or he may not. He does have time to do so. The bigger problem is just the emerging perception that, because of his stumbles and overall under-performance to expectations, he's not ready for the big-stage. He's got to break that cycle sooner rather than later, or perception will set in & become reality.RD2WINAGNBEAR86 said:The rumors of the death of Ron DeSantis have been greatly exaggerated. Once Biden exits the race, things will get REALLY interesting.Doc Holliday said:Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has "really underperformed" in his 2024 presidential campaign, former GOP Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan says, calling it "one of the worst" campaigns he's seen so far.@MajorCBS: "Is it over for DeSantis?"

The talk of a dual party Independent ticket with Joe Manchin running for President and a Republican VP running mate is fascinating to me. Should the Dems and Republicans not abandon a Biden vs. Trump rematch that nobody wants, such a ticket could have a real shot. I certainly would consider it. We shall see.
Frankly, if he doesn't get a lot better, he might even miss the ticket altogether.
The guy is missing out on populist messaging. He's also too formal with his public speaking. He needs to talk personal and bring the fire.
I'd choose RFK Jr. over Desantis at this point.Leftists have no convening force other hate for Republicans

DeSantis’ites and Leftists
meet in the middle like a venn diagram in they both want Biden re-elected, although veneer displays differently.
DeSantis’ites get to be cowards but ‘moral’, Left gets to gulag its foes https://t.co/f32zWewPGl
Good breakdown on why:

"Because you'd be in jail". He straight up talked sh it like the general public does. Desantis won't do that. He behaves like a corporate stooge being watched by HR.
This also brings up another point about GOP and many GOP voters who think "we need to bring respect and formalism back". They don't get it. You can't allow democrats to be ruthless and try to appear like you won't stoop down to their level, it's a losing strategy.
2. Trump lost to a corpse.
3. Virtually every Trump-backed candidate lost in 2022.
Trump is a loser.
Yet, no proof. Convenient any time he loses its someone else's fault. It will be same in 2024, he will lose big to Biden and scream rigged.
