Well, our President DeSantis topic key is not the best of labels at this point. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has also dropped out as a GOP Presidential candidate for '24. He doesn't seem to be a great campaigner. That's too bad, as that sort of effort, the showmanship, quick comeback remarks, etc. does not show one's ability to lead and get things done. Ron DeSantis is a very capable Conservative, as he has shown in Florida, yet Trump, well, we have no idea how much he's learned from his failings.

R-squad candidates seem pretty quick to give up these days, though. There hasn't been any worthwhile poll but that Iowa caucus so far - normally, you give it a shot through some of the Spring (late Winter now) primaries at least. Let me consider a comment that E.H. Hail wrote in this blog here , with a reply by Alarmist. Are the behind-the-scenes Deep State types who want this arrangement, with the (now) hard-left D-squad, Trump, and Traitor Nikki the only ones left, or just Bai Dien vs Trump again? What are they planning for Trump and his supporters in regards to cheating or contingencies upon he and his supporters** getting past that?

I tend to think things are organic, thought I've been wrong before*. It's the push to use lawfare and banana republic style actions against Trump that has gotten him continuous publicity - and he LIVES off of that - and the Conservative right even more galvanized behind him. That's hurt Ron DeSantis especially, IMO.

Namarada Randhawa, errr, Nikki Haley, that would be, has come out pretty well, what with her newfound money and all. That a large share of her supporters say they would vote for Bai Dien over Trump says a lot about Haley herself.*** I hope South Carolina GOP primary voters will humiliate their "native" daughter.

One can only hope that Trump doesn't do something so stupid as to pick Namarada as VP candidate. He'd be wise to pick Ron DeSantis for numerous reasons. I believe his ego won't let him, but I am forever hopeful.


* The J6 '21 happenings, with the new news about the pipe bombs, is an example.

** By that, I mean, we supporters need to work to fight efforts of the ctrl-left to again corrupt the election.

*** Yes, remember my occasional odd remarks here and there about Trump being a dumbass? He appointed this Neocon traitor to UN ambassador, giving her the prominence she's got.**** Or was it, as we speculated , no, ADVISED, some 5D chess?

**** It goes along with what Mr. Hail has remarked regarding candidates who seemed to be groomed to "go places", such as Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, a shadow of the Mayors we once knew ... along with remarks on the ways of the •Indian political strivers in America.

PS: I was about to mention RKF, Jr.'s pick too, Alarmist. I would not be pleased. Yes, the guy was against vaccines, and he doesn't seem like a complete Deep State stooge. However, he's all down with climate alarmism and other stupidities.

PS

Knowing DJT, it will probably be RFK Jr., which will not be a good thing.

2025 might be the Year of Six Presidents, as America continues its own Crisis of its Third Century.
