Apparently DeSantis issued a statement, and none of his Comm/Press people signed it. They know.

He's vowing to fight and lose on, apparently.

Will Asa Rinoton pack it in with 0.2%?

Tenpoundbass says

I hope he brings in someone that has been fucked by the Deep State going back to since Trump came in 2016. Someone with a real axe to grind on the Deep State and corrupt DOJ. A Paul Manafort of sorts.

General Flynn would be one of my choices. Yeah Manafort would be prime for this as well as Bannon.

How about Anthony Shaffer too ?

BTW, for me personally it was like throwing red meat to a lion when Flynn chanted "lock her up " at the 2016 Republican convention.

.

Need a real Sumbitch as Dirty Tricks Manager. Stone, maybe. Manafort would have them flipping. I betcha Manafort has some dirt on some RINOs, too.

The Dems have Mark Elias and Stacy Abrams.

Why the fuck can't we have a bag of tricks and gags to pull?

"Oh muh principled conservatism, hoo hoo we lost yet again. Trannies are a blessing of liberty, hyuk hyuk."

Bannon or somebody else vicious needs to be Chief of Staff to keep the scumbags away from Trump and blast away bureaucratic resistance in the WH and elsewhere, too. No more Rinsed Pubics.

Roger Stone is ideal. He's a lot smarter and more effective than James Carville, who has the mainstream media in his pocket going back to 1992 with the "its the economy stupid".

I don't think we should count out DeSantis. A lot were forecasting he would finish in a distant third place. I think he'll do better in New Hampshire and Trump won't fare as well there.

Then there is always the possibility that Trump could get assassinated -- Sure we never saw that coming ! ! ! ! ! !

Then whaddaya do ? ? ? ? --- Gotta back Ron then.

Both Haley and DeSantis were propped up by dragging Democrats out to vote. Or they wouldn't have gotten over 8 or 10 percent each.
They wont perform as well in closed primary states.

Ramaswamy bows out. He's not running anymore.

ad says

If Trump somehow pulls out of the election race,

Or if Trump gets incarcerated.

Trump supporters have had the wait and see position, because they are letting Trump bring America back down for a soft landing. If they lose hope in that, then all bets will be off. A Booby prize will not placate them. It will be abundantly clear, we are being transparently government by the very government our Constitution safeguards against. We're holding out that Trump will/can right this dangerous course.

If Trump were languishing away in Prison since they raided Mara Largo, or since his indictments even, I think America would be experiencing a movement, that makes the Canada Trucker protest and the German Protests look like a traffic snarl.
We believe right will prevail, and Ron DeSantis wont replace that drive.

LOL! If they literally allowed all other candidates to add all their votes up for one guy, they STILL would have lost.

He's probably right. The object is to overwhelm the cheating apparatus. No more 'close calls' plumped out for the fraudsters.

Shows that the crazy looney toon left know something about DeSantis?

ON TIME AND UNDER BUDGET! Unlike a Ryan Continuing Resolution for Federal Spending under Obama.

Nikki Haley: "Tonight, Iowa made this Republican primary a two person race!"

Uhhhhh.....you came in 3rd, dear. Trump got more votes than you and the runner up together. No one has won the Iowa Caucus by such a margin.

Media pushing Haley is all you need to know about her. DeSantis ran a catastrophically horrible campaign, and just seemed off in general.

Tenpoundbass says

Now the Shitbirds are harping about who's going to be second. What good is second place in a Primary when there's that much air between the winner and the closet loser?

There is an entire Grifter clas that must be fed. The consultants, Frank Lunz pollsters, party organizers, news media hacks (Fox News being desperate). All paid for primarily by CEO type donors who are not used to being told they can't lord over the rest of us.

That's why.

Misc says

I think the odds are rising of at least an attempt as everything else fails and they grow more desperate.

Trump really digging deep into his bench. That swinging fruit Roger Stone? Trump really likes the gay radical dirty trixters like Roy Cohn. Is that why Trump is so supportive of the LGBT mentals, Disney and Bud Light?

Manafort? General Flynn? Aren't these they guys that let the Deep State totally roll the Trump Administration in the first few months?

Ceffer says

In other words, our Incumbent and sole leader of the party could barely get 50% of the Republican vote in Iowa.

More than what Biden will get in New Hampshire.

UkraineIsFucked says

Since Biden won't be the nominee come November - it doesn't matter.

Democrats, unlike us retarded Republicans know how to play the game and win power and would never nominate a guy that has such high negatives and massive legal baggage as Trump does.

socal2 says

massive legal baggage

You are drinking the MSM koolaid.

These “legal troubles” are BS and everyone except the koolaid drinkers knows it.

Word is that even some in the White House have questioned the wisdom of these prosecutions. Not only do they know it is BS, they know it is only making Trump’s case against the deep state stronger.

If you want to win in November, you need to defeat the deep state. Desantis can’t even come off as sincere in an interview and Haley is part of the deep state as is Christy. Those who oppose the deep state don’t have any choice other than Trump. When will you wake up and smell the swamp?

socal2 says

Democrats aren't that competent. They can't even wage lawfare against Trump w/o fucking it up.

socal2 says

In other words, our Incumbent and sole leader of the party got overwhelming majority of the Republican vote in Iowa. In 2016 general, 2020 general, and 2024 Republican primary.

Fixed it for you!

Don’t hate the voters man!

Did you go to the caucuses in 2016? The deep state party loyalists in 2016 did everything they could to stop Trump from the 2016 Republican nomination and they failed because the people wanted Trump! And he is still the overwhelming favorite despite 8 years of non stop MSM lies and manipulation, a weaponized justice system and a deep state running unchecked. Wise up, the voters have spoken! Opposition to Trump is to deny the will of the voters and to stand with the corrupt media and the globalists who hate you.

"Ratheon won third place" - quote on Twitter.

No argument there.

Apparently turnout yesterday was down 41% from 2016. Weather certainly played a part, but that is still a dramatic reduction. Alot of the excitement of Trump is gone as he is a known quantity.

Trump won the old Boomer vote in Iowa, but DeSantis won the younger vote.

The Boomer's parting gift of ruining this country will be saddling us with Trump when we could have had a much more Conservative and AFFECTIVE president in DeSantis.

Trump’s victory speech began unexpectedly gracefully, with the President calling for everyone to come together. He started by thanking Melania, Kari Lake, and then … Vivek Ramaswamy. Late yesterday, after clearly placing fourth, Vivek officially ended his campaign by endorsing the former President. Trump praised the inexperienced, underdog candidate, 38, for running an “amazing” race.

It looks more than ever like Vivek is really running for Vice-President.

MSNBC’s deranged talking heads blamed the fascism slowly settling on our country on … you, the Republican voter, who are “pushing Trump to be more and more extreme”...

You people are practically insurrectionists with all your crazy stolen-election conspiracy theories. ...

Both MSNBC and CNN refused to run Trump’s speech to protect viewers’ safety, the comfortable security of unchallenged thought. It could be journalistic incompetence. Quite easily, in fact. Or, it could be they’re worried Trump will, Kreskin-like, mesmerize their viewers. ...

Governor Haley told supporters Iowa’s results “made this a two-person race.”

Um. Nikki placed third. Never mind.

Turnout was down! The Boomers voted for Trump! Just to screw us, because they are all going to die.

Funny stuff socal, 🤣 it's going to be a long election season for you. Don't squander it by not appearing on the view to blame the Boomers, LOL.

BTW it's been my experience Boomers are still the biggest TDS demographic. Moreover they are the only demographic to want to fist fight you for even mentioning his name. While most other demographics have moved on. They might throw you a look, but they don't feign being uncomfortable and tell you that they are literally shaking.
I think the Liberal Boomer hipsters miss being relevant with the cool kids, 😆

Turnout was down - considerably.

Not what the exit polls showed in 2020 and last night's Iowa Caucus.

Boomers have been one of the biggest cancers in the US - period.

Great. Roy Cohn helped get the Rosenbergs fried and many other good deeds.

Nikki Haley wants more illegals.

We're not going back to the Bush era.

I believe this as well.

Dems are going to pivot to abortion to win the wine aunts back, and many of the wine aunts are in love with Ham Ass right now because PBS and MSNBC told them so.

Stretchin' Gretchen or Big Mike, maybe Newsome. That's who I think.

But I'm not sure it's going to work.

Johnson County ran out of last minute party switch ballots, but had enough to allow enough DEMOCRATS to vote for Haley.
