Joe Biden officially declared that Donald J Trump is “the Great MAGA King,” during a speech last month.
Well, according to the latest polling results from the Turning Point USA, Student Action Summit, a new generation would agree with Biden. Donald Trump wins the 2024 straw poll with 79% support. The next closest candidate was Florida Governor Ron DeSantis with 19%, and all other candidates are asterisks.
(Via Fox News) – Tampa, Fla.– Former President Donald Trump dominated the 2024 GOP presidential nomination straw poll at the Turning Point USA Student Action Summit Sunday, Fox News has learned.
TPUSA polled conference attendees—youth activists from around the country—who they would vote for in 2024 if Trump decided to launch another White House run. The straw poll was sponsored by Turning Point Action, the affiliated 501(c)(4) of TPUSA. 78.7% attendees said they would vote for Trump.
19% said they would vote for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, 1% said they’d vote for South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, 0.5% said they’d vote for former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo; 0.3% said they would vote for Sen. Ted Cruz, 0.3% said they’d vote for former Amb. Nikki Haley; and 0.3% said they’d vote for former Vice President Mike Pence.
Trump spoke at the conference Saturday night, hinting at a 2024 run. His speech was the keynote on the second day of the Turning Point USA Student Action Summit. Trump’s speech followed one Friday night by DeSantis, who’s considered along with Trump one of the foremost potential GOP 2024 contenders. (read more)
What a winning ticket! Don and Ron…… 16 years of changing the DC culture!
Nope.
Congress, Judicial, Dominion, DOJ, FBI and state legislatures actions during Trumps Presidency say otherwise.
COVID, jab mandates, Stolen election, and $5 gallon of gas is our punishment for voting Trump.
And a non-stop irreversible invasion, never forget the invasion.
Mainly, I thank the GOP eunuchs who sabotaged President Trump at every turn for the waking nightmare we are all simultaneously suffering. None or this would be happening without their direct action/inaction.
Yet still the “faithful” will vote strictly party, the republicans know it and will behave accordingly. Have no illusions!
Republicans are Democrats are interchangeable and have been for decades we didn’t figure out until it was too late (2020)
I think unless we act now revolutionary style the opportunity to run them off will be in the rear view mirror
But then I think everyone knows that, we ain’t got hungry and uncomfortable;
enough
I thought I heard someone say:
Why do anything McDonalds still got tons of fries and burgers
I believe President Trump was the first Third Party candidate to run and win in a hundred some odd years. I will never forget when the GOP ‘Stablishment Boys threw a p!ss-their-pants tantrum and demanded President Trump run as a Republican, then he beat the brakes off them at their own hustle, and actually got results. And Respect. And love. They are still chafed over that.
Has there ever been another time when so many candidates ran? They had to figure out how to manage the stages and debates because they couldn’t fit on one stage. Everyone was set on Cruz and then came Trump. The battles over that were pretty incredible too.
“Lyin’ Ted.” LOL!
Not true. They are partly interchangeable. Not every Republican voted to impeach Trump, but every single Democrat did, both times.
So again, tell me there’s no difference….
Ok, THERES NO DIFFERENCE.
In Az, we have a slate of 12 AmericaFirst candidates, running against Democrats running as Republicans.
This campaign has EXPOSED them, for what they are.
They did everything they could to prevent the audit, blocked efforts at decertification, misrepresented the audit results, attended the j6 unselect committee to declare the election result of Bidens win as authentic, prevented 11 bills for election integrity from getting out of committee (cause they KNEW they would pass, and the Gov would HAVE to sign), are on record as having donated to Act Blue, and Democrat campaigns,..
And almost all refused an invitation by the Az Republican party, to debate their MAGA opponent. (probably cause the one who did debate, got his *ss handed to him.
ALL of this “came out” in this primary campaign, and Republican voters here ARE paying attention, and KNOW all of this.
WE will NOT be “holding our nose”; the ONLY R candidates that can win in November, are the AmericaFirst Republican candidates, cause NOBODY is voting for any of these Democrats in Republican clothing.
“Vote for the America First Republican Candidates ONLY,….and only vote for America First Republican candidates!”
that ain’t ME saying that, its the Chair of the Az State Republican PARTY!
Respectfully, quit circling and go on down, if your gonna continue to parrot the Democrats as Republicans talking points.
Well stated!
Arise before you get hungry and uncomfortable
Correct.
“Give us the House, give us the Senate, give us the White House”. Never forget that mantra.
Republicant’s love the perpetual rebound. And the fundraising. Mostly the fundraising. Only this time, it ain’t selling.
Stay positive! Or get out of the MAGA train tracks!! We can beat them!!!
One can stay positive, but we all know the swamp and it’s war against us.
👍
Hey Bob we gonna do that like we did in 2020 is that you’re basing that on?
The Jews stayed positive right up to the time they were forced into the chambers. Nothing wrong w/being positive but all angles should be allowed to be freely debated whether you like them or not. There is such a thing as Ying and Yang, there is positive and negative with everything in life.
“Lead, follow, or get out of the way!” Lee Iacocca
Mike, I believe The Donald would fire virtually every non-MAGA govt employee fairly quickly. He could well disassemble the IC, or at least hopefully cripple it.
For me, Sundance has revealed the depth and density of most or all of the deep state. And PDT is not asleep.
I know that the uniparty, rinos, commies, etc., have a bit of this unchangeably assembled. But maybe not.
I love my Gov. DeSantis. But frankly, I believe that only PDJT is up to the task. I hope he stays well and that the never-trumpers are foiled in all their attempts to stop him from running again.
Perhaps The Donald will consider being speaker of the house? I hope so. He could at least then get better-familiarized with the rules and the opposition.,,and hopefully stop ole joe’s shamefully commie moves to globalism.
I don’t know how Sundance can keep this all straight. He has to have an IQ of 300.
On DeSantis, ….I really like what Graham SAID, at the end of the Kavanaugh hearings.
But I really HATE Graham.
Point being, seperate what someone says, and the emotions it invokes, with the person.
Sure, I like some of what he says,…and does.
A Governor has a TREMENDOUS amount of POWER and Authority, should he choose to USE it.
For example, a Gov doesn’t need to get involved in a pissing contest with the Fed over monoclonal antibodies; with the stroke of a pen, he/she can make Ivermectin and HCQ OTC.
He can then as a responce to a declared public health emergency, authorise tapping “rainy day” emergency funds, to purchase kits just like they used in India, only printed in English, to distribute for free to all.
Every hospital in the State, works under a Certificate of Use, issued by the State health Dept.
The State health dept can issue a requirement that every week, the hospitals must file paperwork listing the # of patients admitted WITH Covid, but where Covid was NOT the reason for admission,..and admissions where Covid WAS the reason.
Deaths WITH Covid, seperate from deaths FROM covid, and advisory that their reports WILL be audited.
Those two things would have TOTALLY destroyed the plandemic narrative, almost over night.
As a MAGA Governor, Desantis has been exceedingly timid, frankly.
Right now, he’s the ONLY “MAGA Governor” and so everyones championing him.
He has no competition, lets see how MAGA he looks, 2 years from now!
Totally agree. I seriously believe that DeSantis is owned by Deep State. They have allowed him to do a few little MAGA things in his own state without much resistance, but it is all a show and possibly allowed so they can pit him against Trump. If he was true MAGA like Trump, they would take him out!
So, you’re a Mike Pence troll?
That reads like a Never Trumper post?
Fight back you don’t whine and quit…beat them.
So which category are you: “Deep State, NeverTrumpers, GOPe and Democrat Obstructionists” or (fill in the blank)?
He might also be a Libertarianoid. They were some of the most rank Never Trumpers around.
All that and more would have occurred if the Shrieking Harridan had been elected.
They were going to do all of those things with Hillary’s Presidency, but Trump won and diverted their course.. This is a war of ideas, not punishment for voting Trump. They should be afraid of us. We are many. We are like the rising sea they keep complaining about and there is not stopping us once we breach their banks.
We’ve had a lot of discussion about who should run with Trump if Trump runs. Many of us agree it would be a waste for DeSantis to do it, he’s better off being the Florida Governor where he has control. As VP he’ll need to defer to Trump. Let him run for President when it’s time.
Ben Carson is perfect in that he won’t run for President in 2024….and then it’s time for DeSantis.
I’d like to see Grennell as Trump’s VP.
Uh, no.
Three reasons why “no”?
I cant think of 1!
Grennell could hold a lot of positions, if Ratcliff isn’t DNI again then Grennell would be good for that, he was the temp DNI.
I would like to see Pompeo, Mnuchin, and Ross in their old positions again. Who am I forgetting?
And Kellyanne Conway needs to run his campaign and have full control of it. And keep Ivanka and Jared out. If he wants family he can use Don Jr.
I actually like Eric’s wife, Lara. She is smart and handles the media great.
Navarro and Kudlow need to be back. Who would you like to see as Trump’s VP? The only other good one I can think of is Nunes but he’s busy running Truth Social.
Navarro for sure!
Devin Nunes.
It’s Grenell with one ‘n’. I drive myself nuts because I can never stop typo’ing his name.
Not Pompeo. Deep state traitor, xCIA. No thanks, ever.
Lots of knee-jerk but I don’t see any rational behind your statement.
No Pompeo or Kellyanne
Agree.
She’s why Trump won in 2016, and her exclusion is one reason why Trump lost in 2020.
But Trump didn’t lose the election. He may not have been declared the winner, but everyone knows he won based off of legitimate votes.
I actually think that in addition to substantial election fraud committed by Dems, that a substantial number of stupid voters were swayed by the non-stop propaganda messages that 1) Trump had done something wrong and 2) the Dems would be the “adults in the room” with respect to COVID and other matters. And for some reason Kushner and the other guys running Trump’s campaign didn’t bother to educate those voters.
Ummm, no, it was stolen by massive, massive amounts of votes. No one wanted Biden. Very few Biden flags, Trump flags everywhere!
Where ya been, Serena? Trump didn’t lose 2020. It was stolen.
Geesh! Seriously?!
Or as was posted here on CTH by another Treeper: “81 million votes, my a$$!”
It was a combo. Some people jumped the MAGA ship and voted for Biden because they were suckered by the Dem propaganda. They thought Trump was guilty of something, or that he didn’t handle the COVID pandemic correctly, or both.
AND there was mass election fraud.
Or Sis and Jared
Pompeo? NO, NO, NO, NEVER EVER!!
ROSS, yes and Navarro, not so confident of Munchin.
As for the old “Javanca” criticism, that was a nevertrumper disinfo manipulation, that far too many fell for.
PDJT had very, very few he could trust, and authorise to speak for him. Jared was one, and so was tapped to do lay the groundwork almost all of PDJT’s most challenging initiatives, and biggest accomplishments.
Jared layed all the groundwork for PDJT’s first foreign trip, to the ME, and laying the groundwork for the Abrams accords.
Never took any credit, wasn’t in it for self-aggrandisement, etc.
The “Javanca” narrative is a spin off if the “DJT isn’t REALLY a Conservative, he’s one of those “East Coast” phony conservatives.
When that fell flat, they rolled out the “PDJT can’t say no to Ivanka” b.s. line.
Surprises anyone still falls for it,..
Those rumors are out there.
I like that idea. Grennell would be good. He has been around long enough to know the game, but isn’t a Swamper.
Larry Elder
Too weak a communicator. No fire in his belly for a fight.
Oh, really? He doesn’t take any crap. Have you ever looked at his Twitter? And he knows about the intelligence apparatus.
Grennell’s twitter is awesome. 🙂
Grenell should be involved with anintelligence agency, NSA or maybe Mike Flynn could straighten it out. Probably need both of them . Who could run the FBI or CIA? They should be disbanded along with the Department of Education on second thought. Totally corrupt.
Secretary of State? Maybe Grenell could take on the State Department.
Whatever happened to Flynn knowing where all the bodies are buried? I hope he is doing well and getting some life back and enjoying some peace. I haven’t seen or heard any media about him in a while. Need someone to gut the FBI.
Oh, sorry. I thought you were referring to Grennell, not Carson.
Ben’s latest mailer had NOTHING about the stolen election.
Kind of a litmus test for me
No election integrity = no representative republic
Great man but I agree too nice for the job.
Larry Elder!
Ugly Cuss,
Would be a good idea to read the guidelines for comments, and then follow them.
Avoid pronouns, as readers will have no idea WHO “HE” is.
Imagine if Dr. Carson were VP when the covid BS hit…
Carson is a strong Trump supporter and will be in the new administration. I think an excellent pic would be the North Carolina lt. Governor. He’s smart, articulate, funny as hell with a great sense of humor. IMO that would be a hard to defeat ticket.
Oh yes, that guy is great! Mark Robinson. I’d for sure vote for him as VP
Its 2 years away, and in the time accelleration/compression known as “Trump time”, thats both a lifetime, and a minute.
Az just passed the first in the Nation Statewide School Choice bill.
In Az, the Superintendent of Public Instruction is an elected position, and we have a true AmericaFirst Trump endorsed candididate, Shiry Sapir.
Should she win primary and general, she will gain invaluable experience implementing this, something PDJT has made clear he wants to do, Nationwide.
So, there, possibly is PDJT’S Secretary of Education, overseeing a program that will dismantle the public teachers union, lol.
Broader point, in two years he will have an army of battle tested MAGA people, with experience, to choose from.
Frankly, KariLake as VP looks pretty good, from where I sit, except would hate to lose her, as Gov.
She makes our last female Gov look meek, and she got National attention for shaking her finger in Obamas face.
So, forget the inside baseball, on naming PDJT’s cabinet for him.
I have looked, HARD at the 12 candidates PDJT has endorsed, and am relieved I can vote for every one of them, as there isn’t a RINO in the bunch.
Beyond Az, I HOPE this indicates he is adjusting his process for endorsements going forward.
But, has to be said, the Az MAGA coalition did our part, and GAVE him true MAGA candidates, that were also ahead in the polls!
WE made it EASY for him he didn’t have to choose between a MAGA with low name recognition, and a RINO almost sure to win.
In a heartbeat!!! Either one, Actually Dr. Carson could be Surgeon General as well, Lord knows that racket needs straightening out.
Oh yah! I remember someone proposed Carson as VP and I gave it some thought and agreed wholeheartedly! Carson would be a GREAT VP! He has the grace and elegance of Pence without the slime. lol
Please.
Regarding,…demeanor. DJT’s 2016 campaign was unique in so many ways, but one involves the “traditional” role of VP as the “attack dog” while the P candidate stays “above the fray”…obviously not relevant with DJT being attacked on all sides.
So, unusually he had Pence, who was NO attack dog.
In 2024, I hope PDJT selects an attack dog, so they can BOTH tear em up.
Again, Kari Lake comes to mind. Anyway, probably a lot of good people out there, that right now we are unaware of.
Give it time,..
President Trump would have to move to another state since both currently live in Florida.
Um no, false. No such provision in the Constitution
need to read AGAIN…..try the XII Amendment for reference
Wrong. P and VP can be from same state.
“The Electors shall meet in their respective states and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves” (emphasis added)
A Trump-Desantis ticket would be allowed by the Constitution. It’s just that no elector from Florida would be allowed to vote for them.
Not true. The Florida electors can vote for 1 of them. So, if it’s a close election 1 could get enough electoral votes and the other would fall short. That is why it is discouraged.
https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/opinion/columns/2021/01/03/civics-project-no-prohibition-against-president-vp-candidates-same-state/4089264001/
DeSantis is a great governor. Let him govern Florida until his time comes. He will support President Trump.
Then why is DeSantis fund raising for president????
DeSantis has done some things well, yes, but should really be scrutinized for:
The stolen election
Ukraine
Economics
China
He is not fundraising for president. He is accepting contributions for his governor campaign. Never-Trumpers are throwing big $$$ at him no doubt hoping he will run for president, and DeSantis would be stupid to turn it down because sooner or later he WILL run, I think we all agree. Now whether or not he can use donations for a Florida governor campaign for a presidential campaign, I’m not sure.
But then he is in their pocket, Ma’am..
He doesn’t need to be. Trump took a lot of money from those same donors.
Agreed. DeSantis has thrown significant sand in the progressive gears from his position as a state governor. Some things can only be done effectively from outside the Beltway – the Constitution ensures that to be the case.
Ric Grenell!!
I don’t believe you can have a president and Vice President from the same state…. Corsets if I’m wrong please.
Spellcheck! Correct me
you are correct.
I think you can but the electors of that state can’t vote for them, which is a pretty major concern for a state like Florida. I think that’s why Cheney moved out of Texas when he got picked as VP.
Reposting….Not true. The Florida electors can vote for 1 of them. So, if it’s a close election 1 could get enough electoral votes and the other would fall short. That is why it is discouraged.
https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/opinion/columns/2021/01/03/civics-project-no-prohibition-against-president-vp-candidates-same-state/4089264001/
Trump can move back to NY or Nj
DeSantis needs to stay as governor. Maybe think of starting a Republican governors caucus of some sort if it doesn’t exist. Need coordinated push back and more governors speaking out.
AMEN!! WE NEED DONALD TRUMP AND RON WOULD BE A GREAT RUNNING MATE!!!!!!
Woot!!! Let’s go!!!!
Pompeo and Haley are neocon, RINO warmongers. Neither can be trusted.
Especially Haley as a WEF graduate!
And not a Constitutionally required “natural born citizen” either.
(Neither is Cruz, for that matter.)
Unless we assume that requirement is moot after the Divider-in-Chief from Kenya and the subsequent installation of The Cackler.
you CANNOT precedent the US Constitution…..requires an AMENDMENT to change the language and requirements within it by its OWN authoroity
.
We still have no idea of the TRUE parentage of 44, so for all we know, he was a NBC . . .
Since we also know that Bribem is illegitimately in office, it follows that his VP is also. That in itself disqualifies Kackala.
The current usurpers purposefully put a non-eligible person in that VP slot in hopes that the issue of natural born citizen be glossed over completely, from here on out . . .
OH, we KNOW he was NOT NBC…..his LEGALLY declared father was not a US citizen but a British subject so he was not and could NEVER be a NBC….the question of his PLACE of birth puts into question his very citizenship……..IF he were born in Kenya as HE asserted for 19 years in his book bio and many others have said is the fact even his citizen mother could NOT have conferred US citizenship on him…..by US law you MUST have resided in the US for at least 5 years past your 14th birthday to be able to transfer US Citizenship to a child born abroad….she was 18 at the time of his birth……interesting point of fact Cruz’s mother became a British subject in 1962 and converted to a Canadian citizen previous to Aug 1971……Cruz Sr was a Canadian citizen as well on the voter rolls in Aug 1971 so with Ted’s birth IN Canada in Oct 1971 he is DEFINITELY a CANADIAN not US citizen
.
Let’s just be logical:
‘Natural born’ does not equal ‘legally declared.’
Once a clown, always a clown. I don’t trust Pompeo because of his view on Assange, among other things.
Pompeo could have stopped the CIA in its tracks right away if he was really MAGA. Do not trust him.
Sadly, so is Ivanka.
They’ve all thrown off their “cloaks of invisibility”. We can see them now and what they are.
Fool us once, shame on them. Fool us twice??
I don’t think so. That door is permanently shut.
On American Digest today, a lovely rendition of “My Country, Tis of Thee”, with lyrics. To inspire hope and keep it very much alive…
https://americandigest.org/
Pompeo was a fantastic Secretary of State. I hope he returns.
Haley can suck it.
pompous Pompeo is not a person for new multiporal world…
He was the head of the CIA for Pete’s sake! The leading organization for chaos and imperialism on the planet.
He took NO action against the 4th Branch!
I can only hope his weight loss is a living model of Steven King’s “Thinner” and he’ll eventually waste away to nothing.
I think he is lying about his weight loss, I think he had bariatric surgery to get there.
He fired no one. All the same people from the Obummer years stayed. Nope. I’m a never Pompeo type
I trust what has been said on CTH about Pompeo. But, man, that guy is smart and really eloquent. Nikki is just another gal.
And Pompeo really fought to protect Christians around the world that are suffering persecution. I worry about some things he has said, not sure I would vote for him for president, but would support him back at State.
Pompeo was Sec’y of State and did nothing to stop Vindman, Sondland and others in that department when they colluded to falsely accuse Trump of a quid pro quo phone call to Zelensky, which got PDJT sham-peached a second time.
Pompeo was also a member of the HPSCI when he was a Congressman from Kansas (betw 2011 – 2017).
He did demonstrate his anti-CCP position in Feb 2020 at a Governors conference, but I do not trust him otherwise because of his CIA directorship.
TRUMP 2024 & 2028
Love the job Desantis has done. But, the jury is still out, in my opinion, on his ability to lead a Movement.
And, Trump’s won twice. So, he can do it again.
In 40 years of voting for R I’ve seen hundreds of DeSantis’ come and go. And I don’t trust republicans opinions either. You dummies called W a conservative! And McCain! And Romney!
Exactly right on. They failed to engage their radar when the MSM started the high praise of said candidates.
I’m man enough to admit that I was fooled by W. But it’s also because of him I quit the GOP and burned my card in 2006. I’m a Ron and Rand Paul fan, but like DeSantis as well.
Would prefer Massie to Rand. Voted for Ron, he would have been good for our country.
I think a lot of people voted for W, McCain & Romney, cuz, well, Gore & Obama. The lesser of two evils thing, or so we thought.
Speculative thinking….if Gore would have won, maybe there wouldn’t have been an Obummer, and maybe Trump would have run in 2008 for the open seat, presuming 8 years of Gory.
Not me, I am registered R because Florida is a Closed Primary. If President Trump leaves the GOP for something better, I am gone.
Thank you for being strategic!
No surprise there. He is our rightful, duly elected President and WE WANT HIM BACK!
Trump is our lion king. 🦁
He is THE man for our time.
This is why they fear him.
He won’t be returning as a neophyte to the Oval Office.
He will be returning as a battle-proven warrior who survived the slings and arrows of the administrative cabal.
There is No One else up to the job.
Lorrie,
Strongly agree,..”But wait, theres MORE!”
He had no organisation, no political party “behind” him, to supply a cadre of like minded, experienced and competent administrators, committed to carrying out his agenda.
By 2024, he WILL have such a cadre, as across the country MAGA candidates are running for office AS MAGA candidates, and exposing their RINO opponents.
Some will win, and develop experience at overcoming entrenched buerocracy, while ignoring the slings and arrows inherent in being openly MAGA, and those that are defeated by the gauntlet of running against the Uniparty and MSM will gain vital experience for the future.
So, PDJT won’t be ‘forced’ to outsource the ‘transition’ and building his team, to the RNC.
This, too could go far to insuring his second term, will NOT be a rerun of his first.
Encouraging words, well said.
I pray everyday that when Trump wins in 2024 that the gloves come off.
And stay off.
Why does Mike Pence think, oh never mind. He’s not worth a mention.
He THINKS? Not sure he actually cogitates any more than Joe.
Please don’t denigrate Pompeo’s intelligence. Think what you want about him, but you don’t graduate first in your class at West Point if you’re stupid. I’m not saying I’d support him, just don’t underestimate him.
I believe he was talking about Pence.
…who?
Trying to be respectful here: Any man I’ve known that is as pussy-whipped as Mike is, can’t be a real man. Sorry, ladies. First amendment here. And, frankly, I’m not ready for a woman president, esp big mike o.
If a man calls his wife mother, what does that make him? Please, answer not necessary.
I am a woman, and would never vote for a woman especially big mike o. I won’t have to worry about that here in Canada as we have fruity Trudope, doubt there is another woman in the cards here, any time soon. FJTC.
is he really want another- coin – from PE LOUSY ???
DeSantis’ time is coming. In four years.
MAYBE, but I ain’t convinced, YET.
Bear in mind, out of 57 states, we only have ONE Gov we are focused on, that we CONSIDER to be MAGA.
Abbott doesn’t count, so Desantis has no “competition” for the title of Americas MAGA Governor.
Lets see how well he stands up, when there are competitors to the title.
I feel he has actually been very restrained in his use of power, to govern MAGA.
Governors, particularly with support in their legislatures and AG’s have a phenominal amount of power, that can be used for good or ill.
We SAW this used for ill, with covid; all the most aggregious abuses were done by STATE Governments, by Governors whose legislatures didn’t push back.
Would be nice to see a Red, MAGA Governor excercising this power for good.
Making Ivermectin and HCQ OTC, which any Gov can do, with the stroke if a pen.
Instead of f*cking around with the Feds, over monoclonal antibody treatments, why not just destroy the Covid plandemic narrative, by making these treatments available to all, and watch the #’s plummet?
It would be demonstrating the “laboratories of democracy” concept of Federalism, AND simply DESTROY the Covid false narrative.
No NEED for a EUA, VAXS or ANY Federal Civid responce, just STATE health depts, broadly distributing Ivermectine, by overruling FDA, which States have total authority to do.
WHY didn’t Desantis DO this, a long time ago?
WHY has he STILL not done it?
DeSantis,…lets wait and see.
DeSantis is about as MAGA as my left nut.
If DeSantis funding is now coming from the Swamp, but I don’t know, but that would be a big clue.
Being that you posted on CTH, I have to believe your left nut is 100% MAGA. So I’m not sure if that’s an insult or compliment ha.
If you are not convinced yet, then perhaps you never will be. Methinks the bar has been set too high for you by you. DeSantis has plenty of competition, it just seems like he doesn’t because he stands so far over the tops of the rest of them and yet, will always be in Trump’s shadow. This is not from any lack of ability but, simply because no one can eclipse the sun that is Trump for conservatives right now as this poll shows. I love what Trump did for four years and the way he handled the constant attacks no other president has seen or probably even imagined. I would gladly vote for him again yet, hero worship is never good of anyone anywhere anytime except for the one rightful king. Leave that to the leftists who worship the idol of the day.
I don’t think many worship Trump. We all simply greatly appreciate what he was able to get done to make America great again with almost no help, and that he took the slings and arrows for us.
Since he’s been gone, you might notice the arrows are coming our way very fast.
No argument from me Dutch, thanks for stating it succinctly.
Thank you for writing this DMan. The second half of your statement really resonates with me.
people who pull up Ozero’s “57 states” reference cannot even be bothered to get it right…..he SAID “I have BEEN to 57 states with I believe 1 or 2 more to go (58 or 59) and ONE more that we will not go to. (AK making 59 or 60 total states)”
Surely there was a way to say this without it being a smackdown?
The Machines are what keep me awake, Dutch.
I think it would be amazing if he ran again and won again.
I would be loving that as well. Lord willing, is what we say in the serbian language.
In light of pols like this how are they going to convince us gov hairdoo or any other leftist won come 2024?
The 0.3% who voted for Pence are in the wrong organization. Maybe they’re WEF plants.
Yes, what’s going on with that one. I would like to know how many people respresent 3%.
It’s 000.3%
If I have my math right, .3% of 5000 polled would be 15 people.
If Pence switched parties tomorrow, 100 bucks says he would poll higher thatn .3% as a dRAT. They can have him.
VP Traitor was a Dark Horse candidate BEFORE his betrayal
Why can’t these two work together as President and V.P. for four years, running on a 12 year plan to make America a secure, lawful, economic international powerhouse again? 4 years Trump, 8 DeSantis. Are the ego’s too big?
I think you will end up very happy.
Again, have Treepers forgot the hell Congress gave Trumps administration.
” have Treepers forgot the hell Congress gave Trumps administration.”
NO..
And that’s why this year we The GOP needs to win a majority, big enough that Biden can’t use his veto power.
And the Democrats, with their RINO help,
can’t stop TRUMP..…
A majority in the house and senate is not gonna solve our problems overnight,
but it couldn’t hurt…
“We will make America great again.”
which is why we’re trying to stop the rinos….
This is why he should be planning the fix at this point in time so when he wins he can straighten this government the hell out.
Exactly! And they don’t give DeSantis hell. That silence speaks volumes for me!
See Article 2, Section 1 for your answer.
I believe the answer to HIS question is in the 1st clause of the XII Amendment
Amendment XII
The Electors shall meet in their respective states and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves
this amendment has generally been taken to mean that POTUS and the VP must have legal states of residence different from one another…..Cheney actually CHANGED his to WY when he ran with W from TX to comply with this….a strict reading however would mean IF the slate of candidates were from the same state that states electors would not have a vote in the decision if it were for them
It’s also in A2, S1.
Yes, you’re correct. My apologies for the snipey answer.
Since we’re living under a post-constitutional junta, I’m convinced those trivial constitutional issues won’t even amount to a speed bump.
Reposting….Not true. The Florida electors can vote for 1 of them. So, if it’s a close election 1 could get enough electoral votes and the other would fall short. That is why it is discouraged.

Then Florida would be screwed. I don’t see anyone MAGA out there picking up that mantle.
I would like to see DeSantis remain in a position of full control, because if he’s Trump’s VP then he’ll have to defer to Trump but DeSantis is fully capable (we now know) of being in that top executive spot. He’s very useful in Florida still.
Not sure, but to me DeSantis has not proven himself.
Plus we don’t have time to be wasted on a person who is new to Washington. We need a president who can hit the ground running and that’s President Trump. Our country needs saving before it’s too late!
Also there’s power in not having to be concerned about winning the next election.
Let Desantis keep on with what he’s doing. I’d lose a lot of respect for him if he dragged his young kids and his dear young wife into the vicious hive of Washington DC. at this point. They all could use some timein FL before jumping into a vat of vipers.
12 year lock Trump and De Santis.
Then Keri takes the reins for another 8.
LOVE THIS!!!!!
This is absolutely great news. I’m not sure who Noem, Haley and Pence think would vote for them, but what do I know.
They are not MAGA.
We aren’t after a Republican.
We require a MAGA president again.
There is only one.
If they do run it’s probably just a cash grab. It’s a way for the corrupt donors to launder money, I guess.
Noem—-outed pretend MAGA
Haley—–was, is, and will continue to be ineligible under Article II requirements to be either POTUS or VP
Pence—–demonstrated disloyalty while VP with his decision on 6 Jan 2021 the final act of treason to finalize the government-wide coup on a duly elected POTUS
The TPUSA are engaged activist conservatives. If all Republican voters were engaged and read conservative websites, RINOs would be exterminated.
However, we are now in the midst of the 2022 primaries and we are seeing flagrant RINOs winning as usual. We may pick off a Cheney here and there but look at what it takes to do that.
No amount of “precinct” involvement will change this. It may help stop flagrant ballot fraud but the main problem of normal people acting in normal ways and being uninformed about who and what the GOP really is will not change. Activists will get involved. The same ones who polled in the TPUSA. Normal people will still wind up exposed mainly to GOP donation letters.
If you truly want to purge RINOs, you have the power in your vote. RINOs have no hesitation in voting Democrat or even persecuting you through Deep State. You are victimizing yourself if you do not return the favor and stop supporting them in general elections.
You don’t punish the RINOs during the general elections! Because when you do that you lose majorities and then everyone is screwed!
You punish the RINOs by weeding them out in the primaries and replacing them with MAGA candidates.
Doing that for the past 50 years or whatever has gotten us where we are today. It hasn’t worked.
We had the presidency, the House, and the Senate in 2016. There’s no reason people can’t continue to vote like that. Everybody needs to remain unemotional and vote with strategy in mind. The majorities are incredibly important. In the general elections, vote to gain/retain the majorities.
I would respect Pence if he were honest about the steal and just admitted he didn’t have the guts.
He is part of the swamp— period.
It wasn’t about guts.
He followed the directive:
Undermine Trump.
His mission was accomplished.
And get coin from pe losi…..
I had faith in Pence right up til the end. But looking back, all the indicators were there the last 2 years of Trump’s term. As Sundance called it….The Big Ugly. He was backstabbing Donald Trump since 2016.
I just finished reading “Created Equal”, the wonderful book full of years of interviews with Clarence Thomas. One of the points that he made several times is how Leftists, those in Academia, Think Tank policy makers, and most of the people in government will NEVER admit when they were wrong!
It’s always something that didn’t get “implemented” correctly, or a policy that didn’t quite go far enough, or something else that was “misunderstood” or “misapplied”. They are always arrogantly confident that they alone took the right position and if it was a colossal failure it cannot possibly be their fault!
I wouldn’t hold your breath waiting for Mike Pence to acknowledge he was both legally and morally wrong in the positions that he took, throughout most of his term as VP, right up until January 6th!
NOPE
He did plenty of swampy things to undermine Trump while in office, including imbeddeding the FBI in their close staff and has a years long Rino record.
Sticking General Flynn in the back is at the top and start of the list.
think of the Three Musketeers….Ryan, Priebus, and Walker were the evil Three Musketeers with Pence their selected Brutus……Pence was disloyal to PDJT from before his own oath of office and set to impede and block as much of PDJT’s agenda as he could in the process….his first major act was getting rid of LtG Michael Flynn but continued to his failed election integrity commission on to his leading of the COVID panel and his final act of betrayal on 6 Jan 2021……he did this all KNOWINGLY and at the direction of those who would seek to hold daily power and control over your life…..he is no innocent simpleton or harmless Christian but is a wolf in sheep’s clothing within the enclosure seeking to do you harm
Precisely. That’s why in our house Pence is dubbed “The Magic Christian”. Faithful and honest when it pays to be so, the rest of the time a serpent in a three-piece suit. Pence is a Pharisee’s Pharisee, on par with Saul of Tarsus.
Look at Pence today, endorsing a different candidate for Governor of AZ than Trump’s candidate. Pence would be a nobody if not for Trump! Pence surely understands how much Trump accomplished and how much Trump sacrificed, yet here he is holding a competing AZ Governor campaign rally. Mike Pence, YOU SUCK. YOU HAVE NO RESPECT.
A whole lot of people wrongfully imprisoned, including two suicides, would disagree with you.
The media can downplay President Trump’s re-election chances all they want, his. 100 million voting supporters will not be swayed or dissuaded.
So it’s true, even a blind squirrel can find a kernel of truth once in a long while – Potatus is right about our King of MAGA!
Thought it was “A blind squirrel in a forest of oaks stumbles across an acorn every now and then “…
All hail the Ultra MAGA King!
Many Americans are putting too much hope in President Trump. No one seems to be able to rally Republicans like he does but despite his extraordinary energy at his age he is getting old.
While the Democrats do not seem to have any younger strong and hard working candidates to put forward, it should trouble Republicans that they have few in this category besides De Santis and perhaps a couple of others that stand out. They need to spell out in a short manifesto seven basic principles for good governance and all sign on to this before running for any political post. The country needs decisive and principled leaders.
Clearly, you have no concept of who Donald John Trump is or what he stands for.
he is getting old
Did you observe him closely during his first term? Have you watched his rallies and other events since he left office? He’s in incredible shape. He appears to have better health and more stamina than many people 20 years younger have.
Look at all of Trump’s accomplishments in his first term. NOBODY ELSE WOULD HAVE ACCOMPLISHED SO MUCH, and he did it under great duress. He’s a tireless worker, super sharp, unafraid, and cares about us nobodies in the middle and lower classes. He’s the greatest President in modern history, for sure.
Now “Honesty”, you are parroting the Dem propaganda. Have you noticed that they are now saying Biden is too old? Not that Biden is in poor health but that he’s too old. They’re saying this for a reason, because they want to include Trump in the categorization. And now you’re doing it. Shame on you.
Again.
There is only one person with the cajones to do the job.
There is only one person with the battle scars.
There is only one person at this time in our history who gets it, who has lived it, who has fought for this country regardless of the snarling beasts snapping at his heels.
🦁 Lion 🤴🏻 King
Donald J. Trump
He Is It! That is it!
End of discussion.
Julie Kelly, the chronicler of the J6 political persecutions, predicts that President Trump will be indicted and arrested by the Biden DOJ as an October surprise. Repeating the question I asked earlier on another thread:
Will Donald Trump be arrested and jailed by the FBI in September or October before the Democrats steal the 2022 mid-terms, as a warning to the MAGA movement not to further interfere with the Marxist consolidation of power in the DC Swamp?
Or will he instead be arrested and jailed in November or December after the 2022 mid-terms have been stolen as a signal message to the MAGA movement that it has been thoroughly defeated and must give up the fight?
Hate to break it to you, but “This was the last cry out for the death of a nation.” Straight from a defeated J6er:
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1534161245686874114.html
So sickening to see the demise of our once great country.
Here’s an answer from one who has great insight; Conrad Black:
https://www.theepochtimes.com/taking-a-break-from-the-circus_4603987.html
Excellent article. Thanks for posting.
No
This USA Today article says it’s not going to happen prior to the mid-terms. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2022/07/19/garland-memo-trump-indictment-election/10097439002/
A Justice Department memo suggests Donald Trump won’t face any federal indictment over the insurrection Jan. 6, 2021, before the election in November, legal analysts said.
Attorney General Merrick Garland reminded U.S. Department of Justice officials that extra steps are required before action can be taken in politically sensitive cases during the fall election season – and unprecedented charges against a former president would qualify.
Legal analysts said Garland restated a long-standing policy that discourages the announcement of investigations or indictments of major political figures on the cusp of elections because it could be construed as interference.
In the memo May 25, Garland:
Cited policies “governing the opening of criminal and counter-intelligence investigations by the Department, including its law enforcement agencies, related to politically sensitive individuals and entities,” especially during campaigns.
I wouldn’t be surprised though if it happens. So it’s up to voters to understand the scheme, and that falls on the GOP party (Ronna, are you alive?), Trump and his team, and all of us to make sure voters are educated. Warn voters in advance that the Dems are likely to do this to try to affect the outcome of the mid-term elections. The warning will make voters wary, and angry if it occurs.
Wouldn’t Trumps security stop anyone from trying to arrest him?
If Republicans sweep to victory in the mid-terms and he Dems subsequently try to arrest him, what then will happen?
This, I suspect, might drive them out of power, not for just 20 years, but permanently (they will split into the Stupid Socialist Parry, and the Foolish Liberal Party).
The more successful the MAGA King, the more his enemies plot his demise.
Consider the article titled “On the Docket: Atlanta v Trumpworld” in the July 23 New York Slimes:
‘Fani T. Willis, the Atlanta area district attorney, has been leading the investigation since early last year. But it is only this month, with a flurry of subpoenas, target letters, and court documents that illuminate some of the closed proceedings of a special grand jury, that the inquiry’s sprawling contours have emerged.
‘She has already informed the head of the Georgia Republican Party that he is a target of the investigation, along with the party’s treasurer and 14 other Georgians who were on the slate of bogus [sic] Trump electors.
‘Ms. Willis is weighing whether to subpoena Mr. Trump, but the biggest looming questions are whether the former president will be designated as a target and eventually indicted. A 114-page Brookings Institution analysis of the Georgia case found Mr. Trump “at substantial risk of possible state charges predicated on multiple crimes.”
‘Legal experts see fewer impediments for Ms. Willis to act than the institutional constraints faced by Merrick Garland, the United States attorney general.’
https://archive.ph/sTkhl#selection-1363.0-1363.154
Take heed. Not only is Fani Willis a militant black Democrat, but also she’s taking advantage of Fulton County’s demographics – where blacks outnumber whites – on both the current grand jury and any future trial jury.
If one assigns a 50% probability (low, in my view) to Willis charging Trump, and another 50% to ‘Garland’ charging Trump, chances are 3-to-1 that he faces at one least one set of future charges.
And with the Fifth Amendment protection against double jeopardy a dead letter (cf. the George Floyd police officers in Mpls), Trump could well face two sets of charges.
Nihilistic Democrat Bolsheviks are hell-bent on disqualifying Trump as a felon, and launching a civil war.
Trump: Bartiromo?
Trump: Owens?
Trump: Heather McDonald!
Trump: Borelli?
Trump: Mia Love?
I think someone reported he was looking at Stefanik for VP. Mia Love is never-Trumper.
Didn’t know that about ML
Stefanik is a rino too.
Thought she is a WEF grad, too?
I forgot how this works … let’s say he chooses Stefanik, can she still run for re-election to her House seat and if Trump loses the election she continues to be a Representative?
Stefanik is a graduate of the WEF school for future leaders. Definitely not.
The Trump is an immortal lion associated with American mythology that cyclically regenerates or is otherwise born again. Th Natural Born Leader of the Forces of Light, the Trump obtains new life by arising from the ashes of his predecessor to once again battle the Forces of Darkness.
I would like to see MAGA take control of the House and Senate in Nov
Then appoint PT as Speaker of the House
Allow PT to go on offense early and begin to investigate via House committes, those who have committed crimes against humanity and treason against the US
Expose it all, their crimes, their collusion, their RICO money laundering, Ukraine, the jab, etc
Consider impeaching AG Garland and Wray and investigate both for possible crimes against America and Americans.
Immediately pass legislation that overrides or overturned most of Biden’s Executive Orders
Investigate if an unelected and un appointed group of people have been directing / running the White House and if so expose them
Investigate the WEF and key leaders for possible crimes against humanity
Investgate Gates and key Pharmaceuticals on the jab contents and if possible harm/crimes against humanity where committed.
This would provide PT a nice running start at exposing and taking down many elements of the deep state come Jan 4, 2023
PDJT has already said he has NO interest in SotH…..WHEN exactly do you think to give him time for a 2024 campaign? or did that little item just slip your mind?…..not enough time in the day for both
If the DS disappears President Trump….CW 2 WILL START!! BIGLY!!
The big question is, will President Trump be able to run again? Phony indictment coming for a October surprise.
A Phony indictment would motivate the 70 million people,
whose vote was stolen, even more than they are now.
Trump would be more popular than ever.
The GOP can win on their economy,public safety and social issues.
Because they are a BETTER party.
The democrats have established a new low in stupidity.
Would Cruz be a good AG? Trump needs a wingman.
Nope. Too weak on immigration.
Chris Kobach would get my nod.
Rule #1:
Fill virtually all positions by dedicated MAGA people who have never lived or worked in DC.
Litmus Test for next AG: Must believe the 2020 election was stolen.
I have a related question. If Trump were to choose a Senator as his AG, who fills the Senate seat? Is it done differently in each state? I have to look that up but if anyone knows please chime in!
I think the answer is: In some states the Governor appoints the replacement and it has to be the same party, and in other states a special election is held.
there is NEVER a requirement the governor select someone from the “same party”……they just do so……you are also unclear by what you mean by “same party”….typically a governor will select a senator from his own party to replace the open position
So now I see that some states require same party and some do not. Info here: https://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/vacancies-in-the-united-states-senate637302453.aspx
Arizona, Hawaii, Kentucky, Maryland, Montana, North Carolina, Utah, West Virginia, and Wyoming require that the Governor appoint someone from the same part as the person vacating the seat.
There are a bunch of other states where the Governor appoints but doesn’t need to be same party.
And then there are states with special elections.
In some states a replacement is chosen until the next official election…..others a temporary replacement is placed until a special election can be held for the position……both instances the Governor chooses the person seating as a US Senator until another is voted in
VSG choosing Sessions for AG was a hindsight mistake because of this scenario.
You’re right, that led to the Roy Moore fiasco and flipped-seat as well as the Mueller fiasco.
I hope Alabama has a good Senate candidate for 2024 to take that seat back.
We have to make sure the GOP has the Senate majority so Trump’s picks get confirmed quickly.
The GOP had the majority in the first two years last term but McConnell stood in the way of many of Trump’s appts. There were still unfilled appts. when he left.
Is that true? I’m looking at this web page: https://ballotpedia.org/Days_from_nomination_to_confirmation_for_Trump_administration_officials
I don’t see any that weren’t ultimately confirmed but maybe this page is lacking that info? Most were confirmed in 30 days or less, which seems reasonable to me.
The only way to guarantee Trump gets his picks is for just 1 Senator to not be corrupt and to allow recess appointments.
Let’s get PDJT re-elected first okay? That is going to be a battle all unto itself!
Cruz is two-faced.
I don’t trust him.
No! Uniparty snake oil salesman.
Lyin’ Ted from Canada should go run against Trudeau.
God bless the greatest president in history,..
Donald j. Trump!!!!
He has been sent from heaven
Greater than George Washington?
Tough call.
DeSantis is not MAGA. He is a ‘I’ll replace democrat tyranny with GOP tyranny’. He can’t get independents and democrats to vote for him like Trump did.
Trump is not a possession of republicans, he is bigger!
If I ever had any doubt that Obama and his Marxist scum were running the show, the title The Great MAGA King confirmed it! I could see them laughing their a** off. And of course it coming out of the puppets mouth, another confirmation.
They didn’t realize that we take that title as a compliment. 🙂
The lunatic left must double down on their efforts to destroy Trump. Their only hope is that he be disqualified from running for office.
Well, that or massive, massive election fraud.
President Trump is The MAGA King indeed! Our real President Donald J. Trump in exile is the only one to right the wrong of 2020! We have to vote him in to turn this country around. By 2024 we will be in dire shape if the 2020 election is not reversed ( I know, I know, I still have hope). God bless President Trump.
.
Quite true that 2024 is too long to wait — our country cannot take two more years of the buffoonery we are being subject to . . .
But, we really do not want the 2020 election to be ‘reversed’ at this point. What we need is for just one citizen who has been given PROOF their actual, legal vote was disenfranchised, to file a quo warranto cause of action — such would dispose this administration, and cause the complainant TO BE the president.
Pro tip: my primary vote will be for PDJT. Period. As will my final general election vote … Trump. Count me in that 78.7%
And, both men spoke. I like DeSantis, but he lacks the Trump charisma factor. I watched both speeches on RAV. When Trump finished the crowd went wild chanting “we want Trump.” Ed Henry interviewed a bunch of them who said they could have listened to him for another two hours because he’s such a good story teller…
I watched Trump when he spoke at the Turning Point USA Student Action Summiton on a small fire -tv that is located in my garage last night.
I like when TRUMP describes coming in for a landing with all the LIGHTS off , in zero visibility, an instrument landing , into hostile territory.
I’d heard it before , but he makes you feel like you’re there with him..
Yeah, the Raisin Cain story comes right after that. Great stories!
If only 2024 were tomorrow
and if only we had fair elections.
But we lost election integrity a long time ago and many millions of Americans either don’t really give a S*** or don’t know, either way the conclusion is the same.
Charlie Kirk did a poll between Trump and DeSantis, most said their grievance w/Trump was his selection of inner circle and appointments, we all know how that worked out. The 2nd thing was his still pushing the vaxx. The vaxx talk he has calmed down on, and he announced the military that got the boot would be brought back.
I haven’t seen or heard anything where he has learned his lessons on better hires. I know he tried and believed they would honor the system, but should he win again, he has got to vet people and quit picking DC hacks. I don’t think anyone thought that General Mattis would be a POS that would betray us. No doubt Trump will continue to hire from w/in, it will be more of same, just new people vying for a spot. By that I mean ties and connections, those that are so desperate for the term “The New Right” to catch on and be an agenda. They want to run the country so badly they can’t stand it. Honestly I don’t trust them either.
I wonder what Trump thinks now that Scarf Birx has come out and admitted on camera she and NaziGnome just made up stuff as they went, and she knew the vaxx wouldn’t work?
Best part would be Trump getting to finish his second term that he is owed, and watching heads explode. I just hope we make it to the elections.
Trump really needs to read and follow the Sundance Think Tank and crew. We are the people that need to be hired to run the country along w/Col. McGregor and others of that breed.
most said their grievance w/Trump was his selection of inner circle and appointments, we all know how that worked out
People can’t criticize Trump for that! The GOP party was working against him and the people he thought would give him good advice ended up making some serious mistakes. This is what happens when we elect an outsider. Now he knows who is friends and foes are.
I’m reminded of Jeff Sessions. What a snake he turned out to be. Sessions caused a lot of misery not only for Trump but for all of us. Who didn’t feel absolutely sick when Sessions recused and then Rosenstein immediately appointed Mueller as Special Counsel? I think I cried that day.
The next time I cried was when idiot voters gave away the House majority in Nov 2018. Paul Ryan had already dropped out, he wouldn’t have been Speaker. McCain was dead. F U idiot voters. And then of course the Dems seized the opportunity to impeach Trump.
If we don’t get the majorities back in November this year I’m going to cry again.
People can, and did say that according to Kirk. I am only saying what Kirk said on his radio show.
In short, there is always a built in excuse!
We MUST get those House and Senate majorities back this November to set the stage for Trump to run again in 2024, or for any other GOP candidate to have a successful run if Trump chooses to stay out.
I just read this article today about Mattiis. Ish. This goes back to at least 2005 but maybe it wasn’t apparent until lately.
https://publiusnationalpost.substack.com/p/how-mattis-betrayed-his-fellow-marines
Comment section on that post is interesting reading. It should be a good book. I remember a time when everyone loved Mattis, it is sad how many of the top brass turned out to be POS. Kelly is another one, lost his own son in the war and was a back stabber. The list is long actually. It is really quite depressing to think about.
pushing the vexx is not a differentiator between Trump and DeSantis, neither has walked back their pushing of it
And they never will. They will claim they did the best they could w/the info they had at the time, never mind that millions of Americans knew it was BS from the get go, but what are you going to do?
We all were tricked by Pence. I’ve been on this page going back to 2014. Everyone here thought Pence was the cat’s meow. He was our Race Bannon, all around clean good guy. Wasn’t till October 2020 that I started wondering. Should have known when the press insisted that Trump put Pence back on the ticket when it was rumored he might be dropped in 2019. I would say 85% of Trumps problems with his staff was Pence’s doing.
2024 is a lifetime away in politics.
Lake, Palin and a number of other fresh faces will arise before we get to 2024.
Just stay steadfast and let time work it out.
Whatever happens, the diamonds must be returned.
Palin will go no higher. Lake might in the future, but she hasn’t even held political office yet, right? Only Trump can ascend directly to presidency without prior political experience. It’s a law of the universe. 🙂
Since everyone is still bickering on the 45 v DeSantos for the top line item, I’ll comment of the poll. This is today’s politically active YOUTH. They spend $$ to got to this conference in FL. They LOVE 45. Next year the LOVE will be a higher percentage, and as the youth age, it will be younger youth.
45 is solidifying MAGA for generations to come.
No matter how long the 1st generation MAGA-voters bicker over loyalty to 45, the youth will be loyal and continue to grow as you waste time bickering.
Bicker all you want.
DeSantis needs to stay in his lane.
45 needs to pick whomever is the best VP candidate in 1.5yrs – maybe DeSan, maybe not. Lots can happen in 1.5 yrs – as we’ve just seen.
So all these youths will be voting in 2022, 2024 to replace all you bickering naysayers wasting MAGA – in realtime.
45 will win (barring stealing it) no matter how much time YOU all spend bickering about it. How about quit bickering and deal with consequential perspectives on the YOUTH – since this was THEIR conference.
45 NOW, in 2024 and for the rest of his life as he heads the MAGA movement for today, tomorrow and his lifetime.
GO 45!
45 — if we hope to survive.
He Is It!
Thee choice—- period.
Get on board or go turn yourself in to one of the Cabal Camps.
He is the choice, period.
Anyone that thinks Trump will run in 2024 if the stolen 2020 election isn’t dealt with first, is delusional.
How is the 2020 election going to be dealt with when we don’t have control of Congress?
Know your Constitution. Elections are the purview of the 50 states. There is no federal control over elections. CONgress has nothing they can do about it.
That’s not correct.
Of course this proposed 2021 legislation didn’t go anywhere because we don’t have control of Congress, but this is the kind of stuff Congress CAN do: https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/1529?s=1&r=1
Introduced in House (03/02/2021)
Verification and Oversight for Transparent Elections, Registration, and Identifications Act or the VOTER ID Act
This bill requires states to conduct post-election audits of federal elections and attest to the integrity and security of voting procedures in those elections.
Specifically, states must conduct a post-election audit after each federal election. The audit must include the accuracy of voting systems used in the election and an assessment of state compliance with applicable election laws and procedures, including those governing the requirements for voter identification and use of mail-in voting.
The Election Assistance Commission (EAC) must develop best practices for conducting post-election audits, including recommendations to (1) conduct an audit using a bipartisan entity, and (2) complete an audit within 30 days after the state certifies the results of a congressional election.
Additionally, states must attest to the integrity and security of their voter identification procedures and maintenance of voter registration lists.
States must submit to the EAC, and make publicly available on their websites, these audit results and attestations.
Sorry, Q isn’t going to save the day. and turn the clock back November 2020.
Do something in 2022 and 2024.
Hey President Trump we’re picking out your cabinet for you! lol
So 2.4% of the respondents are RINO idiots.
Take heart that this poll was conducted amongst younger people. A few bright lights are shining in the GenX/Z darkness.
Seems to me that PDJT has one thing going against him. He is not an incumbent and will have to go through the Primary gauntlet…which we all know can be manipulated.
To conservatives Trump IS the incumbent candidate. 🙂
He is running against Pence, no problem. Pence is road k!11.
So, putting all the good feelings aside, how exactly does the data for Gen X’ers, Millennials, Gen Z’ers line up for the MAGA agenda? Boomers maybe 50-55%? Change the analysis to racial demographics if you like. Point being, past is not prologue. You have to know prevailing ground truth in order to conceive and execute a viable strategy.
Not throwing darts…just want to move from the rah rah stuff down to some of the details. What are the Conservative principles in play and how do these correlate to the thinking/value systems of each of these categories of voters? What’s the real panorama for this battle?
The GOP party (Ronna, are you alive?) needs to double down on advertisements listing Trump’s many many accomplishments in his first term and comparing that to Biden’s miserable mess. If the GOP party won’t do it, Trump’s campaign team can.
That doesn’t address the question but I respect your intent and don’t find fault with the tactic of getting a positive message into the infosphere.
I guess I was implying it. Look at what Trump did, keeping inflation close to zero, low gas prices, low interest rates, lower income taxes for middle/lower classes and simpler tax forms, reduced SALT deduction so middle/lower classes don’t have to subsidize the wealthy, historic low black and hispanic unemployment and low women unemployment (I’m not taking the time to be grammatical so pardon errors), replaced NAFTA, brought back manufacturing, secured the border … this is what the GOP party should be advertising, this all appeals to young people as well as older, and for each of these points contrast with Biden.
OK…so let me get this straight: the BLS, BER, etc., data when it comes from a Dem admin is always semantically manipulated and falsified; but during a Republican admin somehow the data – from the same agencies – is pure as the driven snow.
Not a chance. The economic calamity driven by decades long debt and money printing orgies is just around the corner. Yet, the excuse factory gets cranked up again (he was poorly advised; Covid was a generational Black Swan, and on). They are all accountable – including Trump. I personally (like many others who won’t say so) am tired of the “it’ll happen in the next month; the criminal actors will be prosecuted.” Nothing happened. I see what is unfolding as nothing less than a war. When it comes to the head honcho there is only one criterion: winning the war. The great Generals/Admirals find a way. At this point, there is no margin for the proverbial “learning curve.”
If holding a bunch of feel good rallies targeting blue collar workers is the centroid of the strategy – it aint gonna work. Four years. Ephemeral results. A General who can reach across boundaries;, one who is not compulsively driven to reach out to the lowest common denominator; one who understands all the power nodes, connecting edges and feedback loops; one who can inspire people from all walks of life to engage – that’s what is needed. I get it – one works with what is available. How come there has been no effort to find and groom the next great leader? Trump hasn’t done this.
Find the great man or woman to lead what will be a decade or longer series of very fractious social and political upheavals.
You’re a piece of work, all perfectionist in your expectations and demands. Good luck finding a candidate then. In the mean time, those of us who are realistic pick the best people we can. Trump was the best President in modern history and accomplished the most while under constant attack by the Dems and trying to deal with an unprecedented pandemic.
It heartens me that young people, who are probably far more likely to get their news online and maybe even accidentally run across some truth, see what’s needed.
We here at CTH complain frequently about those who get into office by pretending to be conservative, Tea Party, MAGA, and then turn around and betray their constituency.
Isn’t it possible that once in a blue moon it could go the other way?
Youngkin came straight from the COC, heart of the Establishment … but right away he started governing as a common sense person not known to inhabit VA politics lately. Definitely NOT saying I like him better than DeSantis – but from what I have seen there is presently no one better able to lead the fight for a return to Federalism, putting some teeth back in the Xth Amendment, than Governor Ron DeSantis. I’d like to think if this battle could be successfully won that we still might avoid Civil War II.
Love it!
Great speech last night, as well.
i took a long break from my beloved CTH, sole focus upon personal matters driving good outcome.
the article above is awesome. 6 years hitting this site on near daily basis- you instantly plug in and quick comprehend the article.
call me skeptical – i see plenty of telltale signs of concern trolling and profound experts dismissing logic and sewing negative energy. Against Energy.
That doesn’t fly here. You are easy to weed out.
i see maga comments firing right back. This has not been easy. Trump running again is a MUST. And screw the comments about Dominion and all that garbage. The avalanche of votes for Trump, the sheer weight and delta will be impossible to fake. Plus plenty of motivated poll workers and and other mechanisms can thwart it.
He announces i’m going all in. Donating. Working. Evangelizing. Selling it. We all need to bring it. Big time.
Last time around i was assigned to be a poll watcher at infamous TCF center. 2 days later i get frantic emails canceling my assignment to TCF and reassigned to my local precinct. i knew exactly why. So obvious. They ran a check. Profiled. They knew i would be dangerous to their scheme. Nothing i could do about it then. Or so i thought. This time around Im there.
Good !
I agree wholeheartedly however, the massive cheating in 2020 was a trial-run for 2022 and 2024. I hope with all my heart and sole we make it blow up in their faces but we have to also be prepared from them trying to pull the same fraudulent rabbit out of the same hat again. I just can’t see them allowing their previous cheating and their current agenda going down to defeat without a fight after all if you were a political consultant and sat down and made a list of everything you wished your opponent and their supporters engaged in to win on a massive scale Biden and his supporters did it to a “T.” It’s the old announce that they won, fabricate the ballots to substantiate it and then challenge you to prove them wrong. Everything you said was done in 2020. All the tell-tail signs pointed to a massive Trump win and yet here we are.
I try not to be negative and always hope for the best as I did in 2020 however, the opposition does not care one-wit what the rules are. Just advocating to be prepared for a massive cheating operation – it is going to happen.
I don’t think we’re going to have the voting mayhem that we had in 2020, like unsecured ballot boxes that people are stuffing piles of ballots into in the middle of the night.
If we go back to the 2016 level of Dem election fraud then we CAN win. We just all have to be on the same page as voting and exceed the “margin of theft”, as they say. We need to vote like Dems do, totally partisan. Don’t vote for anyone but Republicans.
Tage teams documenting those drop boxes will help.
I would totally participate in that effort.
That is exactly what I thought we should do. They should not even be allowed. The crooked machines also need to go. Republicans in every State need to start planning for the Nov elections. Do not think we can withstand another 2 years of these crooks.
who is going to stop it?
an axe
I disagree. The 2020 steal was an act of DESPERATION, not a “trial run” for 2022 and 2024.
THEIR perception was that THEY can not survive a second term of PDJT, and so, as a matter of SURVIVAL, they went to extraordinary measures to prevent him from having a second term.
It cost them a LOT, but as they faced certain death, they had no choice.
And, it was a “Trojan horse” manuever; as in it only works ONCE.
Thats not to say they aren’t using the same methods they have used for many years, to try to manipulate the elections, with the express and united purpose of preventing MAGA candidates from winning, both in 2022 and 2024 which of coarse includes PDJT.
And so, we will fight battles, in every State, and every district, like a war where you fight for every inch of territory.
We will lose some battles, but even a MAGA Candidate who isn’t elected, scores many victories for US, as they expose their primary opponent for what they are.
Maga candidates are seeing their primary opponents refuse to debate them, even when the debate us being put on by the State Republican party.
This is UNHEARD of; How can you ask people to vote for you, when you are unwilling to debate your opponent?
Dismissing elections as “oh, they will just STEAL it again” is NOT realism, its defeatism.
The thing that I cannot figure out is why the Communist-Democrats went to all the trouble to steal the 2020 election and cheat Trump out of a 2nd term, but then decided to put Pedo Joe and his Cackling Hyena into the White House that they worked so hard to steal? I mean, Brandon’s campaign rallies during the 2020 run up to November could barely attract flies – while Trump’s rallies were drawing thousands of supporters. As for Harris, she was so disliked and despised even by the multitude of low information voters on the left, that she couldn’t draw more than a lousy 1 percent of the vote in any of the primaries she participated in.
It almost seems as if the ‘Deep State’ deliberately chose these two losers for the express purpose of using them to cause the massive destruction of the United States that we have witnessed since they fraudulently took control of the White House.
You are right that they deliberately chose them. Who is getting the blame for all the messes? They are by everyone. Who gets protected? The progressive Dem party. Getting rid of Biden and fraud VP is ok with them. We have to stop blaming sick Biden and stupid Kamala for everything. They are puppets. Put the blame where it belongs. THE CORRUPT DEM PARTY.
I blame the Satan-controlled Globalists.
Jill Biden and Kamala do deserve a lot of blame because they know Joe Biden is completely demented. How Kamala remained straightfaced when Joe said “end of quote, repeat the line” I have no idea.
The people running the government right now, people we did not elect, need to be outed.
Stick around, kid, you have much to learn.
Slo Joe is an avatar, a LARP. He has no power, he’s a Fake president propped up by Fake News.
So, who’s running this clown show? Look at the familiar names in position’s of influence in Joe’s administration. Start with Susan Rice. Janet Yellin, anyone? Fully 60% of the new president’s appointees were retreads from Obama’s eight years.
Now, look at the policies. Cripple Big Oil, check. Rejoin the Paris Accords, check. Support Green New Deal-like “transition”, check. Negotiate a disarmament “deal” with Iran, check. Isolate Israel and bring Hamas back, check. “An economically weak US, is a mediocre member of the global community”, double-check, and underline.
Sound familiar? Think it’s just coincidence?
Almost?
I’m thinking back to late 2019 and very early 2020 when Biden was included in polls but he wasn’t a candidate. I know the declared candidates weren’t doing very well and the Dems were terrified that Trump would beat them easily. So they dusted off the old hair sniffer, executed a bunch of polls to see if people liked him, and then ran with him. The added bonus was that he was, even at that time, completely incompetent and unable to make his own decisions. The other candidates were at least coherent and functioning even if stupid.
It’s going to be tough. Additionally, the leftists have learned how to do it better. Like, don’t carry a phone while you are a mule…
We have to fully organize boots on the grounds to watch those stinkin steal the vote boxes
It has to be close for them to cheat. That’s the secret sauce. Covid, Fauci, five years of fake scandals (Russia Collusion etc.) which got the useful idiots to the polls gave Biden enough votes that they could steal the election. That might not be possible in 2022. Our problem is not the Democrats, our problem is as always the GOP pols are not who they say they are.
It wasn’t that close last time. The secret sauce is an excuse to ignore the law and make election rules on the fly. Can’t let that happen.
It wasn’t close — that’s why they had to close the election counting down in the middle of the night to bus in the fake Biden ballots in addition to keeping R election officials out. I believe the RINOs are already doing their dirty work in the primaries to keep MAGAs from beating their controllable R’s. This is a dirty business and there are traitors everywhere, so stay vigilant!
The RINOs will be in on the cheat this time for sure — those running against MAGA candidates in the primaries are already cheating.
Do not forget the 2018 theft of congressional seats was a dry run for 2020. 2022 and 2024 cheating will make 2020 look like child’s play.
I believe they stole the KY Governor’s race in 2018 also.
Wonderfully stated Spartan! I too have been a long reader and supporter of CTH and the members here. I too have been offline for 14 months because of extreme personal health injury to my wife. Slowly she is recovering/rehabilitating and i am able to reconnect somewhat. Whatever I can do, I will to support this MAGA movement. It is critical to America and our future generations. We will prevail colleagues!
I am a arch conservative and here is a truth: Trump getting elected again is not going to change anything! It may change the “window dressing” but that is all! The federal Bureaucracy is filled with hundreds of thousands of left wing ideologues! And they will do just as they did in Trump’s first term, they will work overtime to marginalize him! Also look at the history of great countries, the government bureaucracy became the “King Maker” and the “King Breaker” Even with a Republican controlled Congress and a Trump Presidency, the RINO Republicans in Congress will NOT have the stomach to purge that bureaucracy!
Buckle up people there is no happy “movie” ending coming!
I don’t think anybody could work harder to elect Mr. Trump than Joe Biden.
Every day in every way he just makes things worse and worse.
