    At least Nikki Haley is still hanging in there. How long she stays remains another matter.

    Trump is trying to end this thing as early as possible and solidify the base. So he might have been promised something. I doubt his political career is over. I thought he would be Republicans best chance as I fully expect Trump to lose.

    You should know he won't win re-election as governor of Florida son.

    so nobody you're just engaging and wishful thinking got it.
    I don't think a trial for a crime that's make believe will be of any consequence at all.

    Kind of like the Russian collusion hugs it's just not going to go anywhere.

    Not really.

    Because unlike you, I've read all 4 indictments.

    And I also share the opinion of William Barr (former Attorney General), Ty Cobb (former Trump lawyer) and Joe Tacopina (former Trump lawyer) who all say the Donald will be convicted.

    But do me a favor, keep living in your imaginary world, it'll hurt less.

    “You guys” is all of you progressives who know that Biden does not have what it takes for a second term but support him anyway with no pushback within your party. An intellectual would see than Biden is incompetent and ask for change, but that not how socialism works.

    You know that Biden has nothing left in the tank, but he is your figurehead who is used to push for your programs.

    You simply don't get it. Those of us who can think rationally would gladly vote for Ole Joe's latest bowel movement over your mango hero.

    Your Combover Caligula is a ****ing traitor to the Nation and deserves to rot in prison.

    yes really.
    indictments don't establish guilt in fact they can actually establish malicious prosecution which is what this is.
    that discredits you.
    I've never been interested in astrology but you do you
    I'm not the one imagining that Donald Trump is a convicted felon that's you. And it won't hurt less should the trial come out and he be exonerated that will hurt you.

    I noticed that you glossed over the fact the Joe Biden is mentally impaired. I guess in your world, the next president of the United States will be a bowel movement. You make it too easy with your hyperbole.

    Democrats are rooting for Haley which is reason enough to stay clear of her.

    I wouldn't give a **** if Ole Joe was in a coma. He would still get my vote over the traitor you adore.

    Biden only won due to the anti-Trump vote.....

    If Haley was the repub Candidate, Biden would get nowhere near the votes

    Trump will take Florida. The residents know DeSantis bowed out for the good of the party. Haley will quit after NH allowing Trump and the RNC to focus on the general election.

    you can bet your ass desantos sleeps better tonight than he has since his screwed up announcement on twitter

    his nightmare is over for a couple years

    he is term limited in Florida in 2026 ..

    he will begin his official 28 campaign shortly after leaving the Florida governors mansion

    but prior to his official presidential announcement,

    he will be campaigning for whoever is the GOP governor nominee..

    and no doubt he will be talking about himself more than the candidate he is supporting ..

    surely desantos learned alot about national politics over the last 2 years ..

    with the GOP having a super majority in Florida, desantos thought politics was easy

    the spanking he received over the last 2 years may have taught him a lesson
