    I see that leftists here can't let go of a man who has been out of power for 3 years must obsess over him a classic case of:

    He's running again. And he pretty clearly broke the law . . . over and over again. Lazy memes are not an excuse for running away and hiding.

    He isn't going to get the nomination as the RNC are trying to push him out.

    He is suffering from lawfare attacks which is why he is winning them.

    It depends on which Trump shows up.
    I expect some mellowing along with a deeper understanding of the issues. Trump will zero in on what is worrying Americans.
    Win or lose, he will create better candidates on both sides. America is in a happy place right now and the usual bromides are going to work.

    Fun fact: We have 127 million tax payers. The rest comes out of your pockets in the form of higher prices, which includes business taxes. Money saved is taxed, money invested is taxed.

    Unbeknownst to democrats, the “electoral system” will determine who your choices are. Not you. The swamp is dumping Biden for you, Harris next, and kneecapping Trump. So don’t get all uppity thinking you make choices. You don’t.

    Yeah, I'm not buying it. We were promised he would grow up and be a big boy and act presidential last time and that didn't pan out. It isn't going to happen this time. He's going to keep being the same swamp trash he's always been.

    But it is really cute for you to defend Trump out of one side of your mouth while complaining about the debt out of the other side. Mother. ****ing. Hilarious.

    You care to detail any of these "lawfare" attacks he is winning?

    I know there is no such thing as free money. Too many able bodied people are living on the dole, and democrats are just fine with that.
    I doubt they have ever entertained the notion of what might happen in the early 2030's when it is too late.
    Trumps spending was primarily providing liquidity during Covid.

    Define "too many" and then detail how you know that many are "able bodied"

    Not surprising , Trump's amoral and never cared who the person was as long as they antied up and/or voted for him.

    'Trump promotes message from 'locked and loaded' supporter who vows to 'physically fight' for him'

    Source: Raw Story

    See the tweet Trump promoted below.


    [​IMG]



    'Former President Donald Trump is once again promoting violent rhetoric.

    On his Truth Social platform on Wednesday, the former president promoted a post from a supporter who vowed to "physically fight" for him to be returned to power in 2024.

    "It’s not going to happen again," the supporter warned of Trump being denied the presidency. "People my age and old (sic) will physically fight for him this time. What we got to lose? I’ll donate the rest of my time here on this planet to do it. And I know many many others who feel the same... we Are Locked and LOADED."

    Of course, as hundreds of Capitol rioters currently sitting in prison could attest, there is much to be lost by "physically fighting" on behalf of the former president.'

    What are (R)adicals for, besides hating everybody and everything left of these "very fine people"?

    It's pretty obvious why he isn't planning rallies. They take a lot of time and money to set up and if he A: declares bankruptcy before the rally he's spent a lot setting up, there'll be that much less in his bankruptcy proof PAC for him to live off or B: criminal charges hit killing his rally and he needs to protect his PAC fund for a ship in international waters staffed by nubile young girls working on all over tans.
    He has to look out for his future.

    Finally, someone on the right admitting T**** gave up his presidency during Covid.
    Quite refreshing.

    Trump proves he's scared of DeSantis, real scared...:roflol:


    'He would never do such a thing!' Trump posts photos of Ron DeSantis allegedly partying with high school girls as a teacher as he ramps up attacks on Republican rival
    • Trump re-posted photos of DeSantis allegedly in his twenties
    • 'Whistleblower' story claimed he was pictured with high school seniors
    • Trump commented on it, writing: 'That's not Ron, is it?'

    One of them, who has her arm around the now-Florida governor, is smiling and appears to be holding a brown glass bottle. The hit comes as DeSantis has been rising in the polls and lining up influential supporters.

    GQP'ers are addicted to unflattering actions and speech as history shows.


    'Trump Threatens to Reveal Unflattering Information About DeSantis if He Runs'
    “I know more about him than anybody other than perhaps his wife,” the former president reportedly said.'

    • Nov. 8, 2022
    'Several hours before polls opened on Tuesday for Election Day in Florida, former President Donald J. Trump warned the state’s governor, Ron DeSantis, against mounting a challenge to Mr. Trump’s own anticipated presidential candidacy in the 2024 election cycle.
    “If he runs, he runs,” Mr. Trump said of Mr. DeSantis to a handful of reporters traveling with him on his private plane — recently refurbished and put back into use — after a rally Monday night in Dayton, Ohio.
    But Mr. Trump added, in remarks published on Tuesday by The Wall Street Journal, “If he did run, I will tell you things about him that won’t be very flattering. I know more about him than anybody other than perhaps his wife, who is really running his campaign.”

    DeSantis actually threw some pretty good shade and Trump at a recent interview, talking about how, unlike Trump, he won his reelection. It was actually pretty well done, as much as I don't like DeSantis. Here's the real challenge: how is Trump going to pull this **** on Haley? He can go hard negative on DeSantis, but it won't play well when he does the same to Haley . . . and hard neg is the only move Trump knows. He can't talk issues or anything substantive. He's not going to be able to go neg against Haley without it backfiring.

    Damn!
    I was expecting some offensive nicknames for Haley.
    "Nimrata Nikki Haley (née Randhawa;"

    He's certainly not building his base so those that remain his little soldiers love his racist insults towards women and offensive nicknames.

    There are always the 2 affair accusations about Haley with guys that he can allude to? lol

    Maybe Haleys hoping Trump will do a Biden when he had Harris who campaigned against him as his VP pick ?
    That could happen during the campaign or if Trump is the GOP's nominee?
    I think she's positioning herself for anyone's VP in 2024.

    I wouldn't say 'follow'. Left wingers have more diverse sources of information, providing a more complete and comprehensive 'study' of Trump and his antics. Right wingers tend to follow Trump by listening to him. There's the difference.

    I’m not sure what’s so diverse about sources that mimic the same talking points.

    I could rephrase it. Leftwingers create 97% of Trump threads.

    I wouldn't doubt that. It's because we're appalled by his behavior. The same way it is the Right Wingers who post ALL the trans threads and the vast majority of those threads about race. If you are suggesting that we are obsessed with Trump, then I guess the same would follow with the Right's obsession with LGBTQ and race.

    Can I make a suggestion. Rather than be bothered about behaviour, focus on GDP, unemployment levels, poverty levels, immigration etc..

    You might find some with 'poor behaviour' can often deliver better results.

    I did see a news snippet that the current generation are fed up to the back teeth with this woke rubbish, so I'll have to look into that story.

    Its a fair suggestion. But I find that life is more than stats and numbers. Quality of life isn't always about those things.

    The thing is, if I was on a ship, I would prefer a captain who delivered results, he was hard on his crew, abrasive, and sailed around the iceberg, as opposed to a captain everyone applauded after his speech, tinkered along with sluggish results, and sailing slap bang into the iceberg and sinking.

    I can't see the need to vote for someone nice because all too often, it doesn't do my pocket or the country any benefit.

    American politics is based on personality, rarely on results.
