Appearing for an interview with Dave Rubin, the founder of Locals and a major conscript of the branding and image shaping effort behind Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, Megyn Kelly gives Mr. Rubin the bitter pill of truth. {Direct Rumble Link}
Within this excerpt, Mr. Rubin struggles through the five stages of grief following Kelly’s red pill delivery, eventually stabilizing his emotion by accepting Florida Governor Ron DeSantis can still deliver good political outcomes for the state. It’s a very interesting dynamic to watch for a few reasons.
First, because Megyn Kelly has first-hand experience with the power of the MAGA attachment to the atypical America-First leader. Second, because Kelly’s truthful statements cut against the objective for why Rubin was recruited by DeSantis Inc. WATCH:

Sad Trombone…
Media knows media. That makes people like Kari Lake so very powerful and maybe someday again Ms. Megyn.
I agree 100%
I’m remaining suspicious of Kari Lake!.
Not fully trusting that her aggression is due to her fire and passion to fight for what is right – or just HER personal take on what is the successful TACTIC to use in the Political Arena.
I.E., Candace Owens is all Natural Fire. Mama fighting Naturally for her babies.
NOT someone who just strategizes for “the best Tactic”.
Again – just my own “Humble opinion”
I have followed Kari for over a year now. She’s been traveling the state including all the little small towns and reservations. She’s working hard and I like her. She doesn’t back down from a fight and looks you right in the eye and answers questions. ABE, MARK, BLAKE, LAKE. We’re going full MAGA. No McCain Rino’s especially Ciscomani in CD6 who is nothing but a McCain stain establishment that has been groomed by the McCain/Ducey machine. NO more Rinos.
May it be so.
A clean red sweep in AZ would be an exclamation point at the conclusion of a historic day in American election history.
My only concern is the inevitable cheating, which we will see in this mid term. My expectation is that if we get red enough, some of the fraud will be legislated away, state by state.
Its not JUST the MAGA “slate” in Az.
We have a similar Slate in Nevada, N.M. (I believe) Michigan, Pennslvania, etc.
AND, they are co-ordinating, not only within each State, but across States.
Furthermore, these MAGA Slates made it thru the primary, over the opposition of the GOPe; because voters GOT INVOLVED with the State R parties; without taking control of the party, wresting it away from the Rinos, a MAGA candidate stands little chance, with such support, our MAGA policy positions giveus a tremendous advantage over UNIPARTY R or D candidates.
WE have and are continueing to build a “second America First Party” from WITHIN the existing RNC .
ENOUGH of these Slates, in enough States WILL win, and from their positions launch devastating attacks against the Uniparty, and no “cheating” will NOT stem the tide.
Those who persist in registering as “Independants” when they ARE MAGA, are like “conscientous objectors” in this war; without a gun, they can not effect the outcome. Without a PARTY (there is no “Independant Party”) you simply have NO political power.
Really hop those lured by the seduction of being able to say “I’m Independant” would get over themselves, register Republican, and start attending R party meetings in their precinct.
WHO decides who the R party “ticket” will be, in 2024?
State DELEGATES.
WHO decides WHO your states Delegates will be?
The precinct Captains, District Chairs, County and State Chairs, and the County and State Executive committees the chairs answer to.
DO YOU, dear reader KNOW who ANY of the people are, that hold these vital positions?
Have you EVER talked to them, face to face?
If not, WHY not?
The real battle STARTS with YOUR State Republican party, NOT with election day.
That’s true.
But what happens when your red state’s precinct chair position is STOLEN?
We’ve started to regroup to fight back – but please be ware – even those avenues to power belonging to the people have been corrupted as well.
It’s the looong game. We aren’t going quit, please be prepared for blocks at every turn.
So long as Fox doesn’t call AZ for the Dems on November 4th 2024…
Kari Lake is a dynamo. She has my vote and I’m supporting her all the way. When you hear what she has to say, you can see that she is with the patriotic people of AZ. I have no doubts and no worries about what she can accomplish. Kari is a singular voice of truth and will be a great governor for Arizona. Go Kari and win win win!
azchick; as an az dude, I echo your sentments. As soon as I heard her “farewell broadcast” where she said WHY she was leaving, i emailed her pledging my vote, for WHATEVER office she might run for, and she hadn’t even said she was running for anything!
And, I closely follwed her from that point on.
At the beginning of the new school year, some ASU Students organised, to protest against COVID mandates. The President of ASU threatened to have them arrested, for peacefully protesting, before they had even protested.
KL took the unpopular stand, of attending the protest and promising if elected, she would pardon any who were arrested for PEACEFULLY protesting the mandates which she opposed.
Given we have been burned many times before, SRR’s scepticism about ANY Candidate is well founded.
However, hopefully the experience of being burned, has taught us DISCERNMENT, so that we CAN spot the phonies.
Fortunately, the old “I’m a true conservative, supporting strong military, lower taxes etc.” doesn’t work, any more.
THEY, the GOPe are drawing the distinction, which makes the difference.
GOPe doesn’t want candidatesthat campaign on Covid mandates or the 2020 steal.
Those two issues alone, WOULD suffice to seperate WHEAT (MAGA) from chaff.
Using the term “RINO” or mentioning Klause schwab are additional clues.
KL passes these tests with ease.
Beyond that, I would urge SRR and any who share her doubts about KL, to go to KL’s website, and scroll down.
Start with the video of her “Final broadcast” and then view the other videos on her website.
Not somuch as a ‘test’ for KL, its a test for YOU; CAN you discern a true MAGA Candidate, from a phoney?
Its really very easy, oncr you set aside your emotions.
She does seem to know Arizona and its specific problems which are different from from other states due to illegal immigration and water issues.
When some one tries to insert the RNC or DC swamp creatures talking points about some of these issues and they are a little “off” she pushes back, hard.
She knows exactly how the voters in Arizona feel and what they want because she talks to them and she has lived there.
Candace has made very hateful comments about white women. I don’t trust her even as she does some good things.
Did Candace make those comments because they’re white or because they are liberal wackos?
I’m thinking it was their politics and not their color that she didn’t like.
White leftist Karens you mean. Candace is all politics not race.
I’ve never seen Candace to view the world thru the prism of race.
I think you must be taking her out of context. Prove it.
Could you please post the “very hateful comments about white women” in the context in which she made them?
Yawn…
Please! Stop attacking our fellow MAGA conservatives. Kari Lake is the real deal. You want to know why the DemonRats are so successful?
Because they don’t ever, ever, ever remotely criticize one of their own.
again HOW do you KNOW she is the real deal?…..I like what she is saying as well…..let us see if that translates into action….I withhold full approval until it is JUSTIFIED by her actions….as they say TALK is cheap
How do I know she’s the real deal?
She’s running for office as a MAGA candidate who makes no bones about supporting our President Trump, AND she’s doing a phenomenal job.
Kari Lake is putting her whole heart and soul into this campaign, working non-stop to WIN.
What the hell more do you want her to do to “prove” to you that she’s the “real deal?”
Kroesus is whacked.
How the hell can she prove anymore than she has through her assertions and actions? She isn’t in office— YET!
Casey DeSantis knows media as well. Her career was in TV hosting and news.
And she is not a candidate for any office, nor elected to one.
Her husband is her investment commitment.
So, it’s Me-again can speak the truth when she’s on the back channels of public commentary.
Was thinking with Me-again she’s on her meds when her hair is styled in softer do’s but when she slicks it back all dominatrixy it’s a good sign she’s probably off her meds (just an opinion) and getting ready for a face plant like she did at the Fox News Presidential debate stage.
only watched this video clip of her because Sundance posted it, and it was nice to see Rubin’s face fall when he realized there’s no way DeSantis can win against PDJT no matter how hard Rubin wants it. That was worth the watch.
For awhile it seemed like Megan was channeling Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct.
The FNC debate is the first thing I think of when I see her face and her and Baier’s attempted takedown of Trump.
Dave Rubin another of the”conservatives” who thinks homosexual fake marriage is a “conservative” institution. He and Lil Benny are as weak as it gets.
I was disappointed when I saw Benny in that picture.
Benny used to have a reputation for using other people’s GIFs, Memes, and comments without giving credit. I wonder if he’s changed?
Me too. I always thought he was buddies with Donald Jr
The conservative position should be, get the federal and state governments out of the marriage regulation business. Let Churches have domain over marriage and anyone else can define whatever type of union and ceremony they want.
before that can happen the individual income tax needs to be abolished
“Income tax needs to be abolished”.
I noticed that today President Trump put a post on Truth about a new book tracing the history of the federal income tax. Tellingly perhaps, President Trump wrote the books forward.
How can the personal income tax be abolished when the elected officials and appointed bureaucrats and other govt workers receive mega salaries and golden pensions and paid healthcare for life????
Homosexuality is a perversion of the institution of marriage.
Marriage was instituted to display the wonder of God’s relationship with those in His true church. Ephesians 5:31,32 ESV.
Thank you for your outstanding comment CattleDog. Well said. ✝️
Almost all countries in the world support gay marriage. So, your opinion is now the perversion.
I disagree. Right is right no matter if only one knows it.
That doesn’t make them right – you might want to check out the Holy Bible on that one unless that book does not have any meaning for you.
It doesn’t matter who or how many support it. It’s still a perversion. Always “mob rule”, huh?
A democracy—y’know
For sure. Marriage is between one man and one woman, period. Civil unions, fine but don’t defile marriage as was instituded by God.
So you’re saying the non-religious should have no right or means to marry? Sorry, but we still need Justices of the Peace, or other methods of civil marriage.
No we don’t. All we need are civil contracts. Other than enforcing contracts there is little to no need for government to interfere in civil matters.
I didn’t understand Cattledog the same way you did. Marriage is a contract. The contract is up to the people directly involved.
The people most directly involved would do well to think about the details of that contract before they enter into it.
There is a famous movie director who was married three times. (If I remember correctly, one of his serial wives was Bo Derek). This guy was clear from the outset that he would want a divorce when his wife was about forty. The women knew this about him and married him anyway; and then stayed friends after they divorced later. It sounds honest. Not my cup of tea, but I didn’t contract to marry him either.
I have known of gay men who married women and became parents; some of them didn’t tell their wives before marriage, others did, and the situation was clear and understood from the beginning.
People need to talk about how they plan to handle their partnerships in every aspect, before embarking. There will always be surprises, but honesty is better. And if two men or two women make a contract to be a family/ domestic partnership and support each other, thats their business, not mine, not the government’s either.
John Derek. Married four times to Linda Evans, Ursula Andress, Bo Derek and Patti Behrs. I would consider that an A+ lineup.
He also died at a relatively early age from heart disease, leaving Bo Derek with a ranch with a mortgage.
He broke Linda Evan’s heart.
Had to live in another country to carry on with Bo Derek as an underage girl.
Made a Tarzan movie which was so bad people walked out.
All of these women needed to have their heads examined. They all fell for a
handsome face and that’s all.
Marriage effects society is not just a religious institution. Humanity and the natural law, on which our species is designed to follow and operate under, are key to the healthy and well-functioning society and should be the basis of all civil laws.
Good point. However, traditionally, governments have always invested resources in marriage and family because they are recognized as a necessary and fundamental building block and stabilizer of the society. They don’t just recognize marriages; they incentivize them with benefits because they will get a societal good in return. They have a dominion in that regard. The problem now is that gov’t defines as marriages some unions which do not build or stabilize the society, and those resources are wasted.
Not just wasted, but actively directed to destabilization. That seems to be a problem with government involvement—start out at least kind of righteous, then go off the rails.
The regime we now have is entirely destructive of the traditional nuclear family, and on purpose.
They destroy the family to strengthen the totalitarian state. Marxism 101.
I like the way you cut it. Stay brutal. It’s beautiful. ✝️
There is faux conservative and MAGA in the republican party.
Historian Victor Davis Hanson argues every time Trump talks about the stolen election, he loses focus and momentum.
I have mixed feelings on his position.
I have seen the same…for such an intelligent man he sure has little problem overlooking so much iron-clad evidence supporting the 2020 STEAL
Trump’s major deficits are lack of administrative skills, lack of legal knowledge, and lack of devotion to his base…But he’s definitely the favorite..He needs people to look past the vaccine/lockdown debacle, however…
“…lack of devotion to his base…”
How do you come to that opinion?
Still claims the vaxx was a great achievement. NOT.
Blind to reality much?
Love or hate Ann Coulter but her criticisms of Donald Trump once in office are spot on.
Jared & Ivanka leading policy?
It’s said you dance with the one you brung.
President Trump forgot that.
And before I’m labeled anti-Trump I’m a fan but also a realist.
So you refer to Ann Coulter in your opinion.
Anti Trumper, much?
The lockdowns were courtesy of mayors and governors NOT President Trump.
Trump (and DeSantis) locked down for 4 weeks.
That’s nice, but when people refer to “lockdowns”, they don’t refer to the reasonable first 4 weeks, they refer to the months or year or more afterward, which were in fact enacted by democrats or uniparty types.
Do lets don’t equivocate, mmkay?
Hate to break it to you, but you are the one equivocating.
March 13 2020 the day a State of Emergency declared at the Federal level for all 50 states. Biden just extended it for another 90 days. That SE was the basis for every thing under it. If it had been ended, no masks, no lockdowns, no closures, none of the insanity. President Trump could have pulled the order and did not.
No, he didn’t know anyone in DC or the political arena and they used him and lied to him. He’s talked about all this. The rest except Warp Speed, which wasn’t his, Moderna worked with DARPA for yrs on theirs, and working on many more with same tech with Lipid Nano Particles that works as the delivery system. He doesn’t even know about this. He put us in the room, for crying out loud, more than any other President or politician. That’s why they had to take him out.
I suppose u r in his inner circle that you opine so ‘knowledgeably ‘ on what he knew or knows? Get real. If anything cite ur sources for these uninformed opinions of urs.
What would you have done?
Not issued a State of Emergency for all 50 states for sure. There were 4k people a week dying of the flu at the same time since November 2019. We hadn’t seen those numbers since 1918.
I would not have issued that order based upon a model that produced a hockey stick looking datum prediction of 2mill dead of Covid. Sorry, numbers don’t fall that way. Anyone who deals with big data knows those models are garbage.
But you are looking through the hindsight ball. Now look at it through the media ball of rapid fire spread, grannies dropping like flies, and you as President saying business as usual. What would public reaction have been?
Trump is not a doctor, or scientist. You would have done the same as Trump.
Oh my!!!!
Dr Scarf lady Birx has confessed/bragged publicly, via televised interview and her book/payoff, that she and Fauci deliberately lied to Trump, knowing the vaxxes were not efficacious, nor were the lockdowns she pushed, again knowing that they were BS. Why this is not circulating and emphasized more, in even conservative media, is baffling.
Trump knew they were lying pos which is why he put them front & center. So they could sink their own ship in their arrogrance.
The only deficits I saw and continue to see lie within the corrupt, elitist swamp creatures who to this day are desperately still trying to remove him because they fear his skills and knowledge AND his devoted base.
lack of devotion to his base …. I’m sorry that is just an ignorant remark
He is devoted to our nation.. his base is too…
He’s been risking his life everyday since he came down the escalator … you call that a lack of devotion ? !
Then I call you a good old fashioned Dumb Ass !
The above is a reply to pyrrhus not Emma .
I agree with you. Dangers stupid IMHO.
“Downright” stupid
It’s a long read, but here is an interesting take on the Plandemic and President Trump’s response. The bottom half of the article is where you will find commentary on Operation Warp Speed.
https://patelpatriot.substack.com/p/devolution-part-15
Tried to edit the comment. This is what I meant to say.
Lack of devotion to his base? He’s been fighting for us non -stop.
If you’re feeling angry about Operation Warp Speed, please think about what alternatives were available. He could have let the World Economic Forum control vaccine development and roll out. Where would we be?
I’m betting that if he hadn’t developed a vaccine, the Powers That Be would be playing cat and mouse with us.
Ooh, here’s a vaccine for the Delta Variant. Lockdowns will be eased until the next variant comes out. Oh, darn. Now we need to make a vaccine for this one. Back to lock down you go!
They can’t play that game because Trump made a vaccine for Covid-19 in general.
It’s a long read, but here is an interesting take on the Plandemic and President Trump’s response. The bottom half of the article is where you will find commentary on Operation Warp Speed.
https://patelpatriot.substack.com/p/devolution-part-15
Trump didn’t develop the vaccine. It was already locked and loaded waiting for the plan-demic to develop. If Trump had developed the vaccine, the truth about its effectiveness and safety would be used to bludgeon him with.
They are already moving to do so, it was inevitable they would exploit the vulnerability they themselves created.
Sorry for not being clear. I didn’t mean that there was only one vaccine developed, and it came from Operation Warp Speed. It’s that OWS developed three vaccines that were intended for use in America. Better than letting the Chinese Communist Party make one first, and gullible Americans buying that vaccine. Who knows what poision they would have sold us.
Unfortunately, it seems as if Big Pharma took the vaccine made via Operation Warp Speed and added some extras, like graphene. Not kidding.
The mRNA we were offered, or forced, over here, was based on coding received direct from the Chi-Coms, and the special secret extra bits, recall if you will that 50% of the ingredients have never been revealed even to the CDC or FDA, could just as easily been a consequence of research done in and provided by the Chinese as well.
We understand that these Vaxxes weren’t tested and the consequences were unknown, but we honestly don’t know that such is actually true, they very well could have had significant insight into the horrific results of the Vaxx well before Coupvid was released.
Not that our monsters couldn’t have messed with things, the substantial variations between lots offered in different regions and the documented difference in mortality do suggest that there is a whole lotta Mengele going on.
You Never Trumpers are easy to pick out of a crowd.
It appears “major deficits” affecting this opiners ability to make accurate and insightful assessment guesses is a disconnect from reality.
Primary and vetted secondary sourced research is readily available so such a reality disconnect around President Trump is easily corrected. Seek and you can quickly find.
Translation of opiners poliscifi speak into real speak:
“lack of administrative skills” == DJT is the most administratively skilled POTUS in American history.
“lack of legal knowledge” == DJT is arguably the most legally knowledgeable and experienced POTUS in American history
“lack of devotion to his base” == like our Founders, DJT puts EVERYTHING on the line to help Save America; the gift those Founders entrusted to our care. He’s not just doing this for “his base” but for all Americans and for all Gods children.
Perhaps armchairs would make better use of their very limited remaining presents by pondering how devoted THEY are then deciding to demonstrate their “devotion” by doing all they can each day to ensure that President Trumps mission to Save America succeeds.
wrong
Lack of legal knowledge? How do you know that? I have heard interviews from people who have worked with him who have said he is highly knowledgeable in legal skills and asks great questions.
Lack of devotion to his base? That is not getting a response.
Megyn was great before she hopped on the Hillary train, she’s paid enough. I’d pay money to see Trump sit down with her. She’s an excellent interviewer and nothing gets by her. I’m glad to see she’s realized what most of us already knew.
Did she actually support the hildabeest or did she simply dislike Trump? In any case, she has had a major shift in the things she has been saying.
All I remember is she was so hot to trot full of herself that she alone would bring down Trump. It backfired hugely. She has eaten some humble pie, but none of these people can be trusted. They are all actors and liars to make the buck. Even in interviews like this, where she is very good, I cannot trust her.
Exactly – I remember when she tried to ‘get’ Trump and failed and started her descent. I caught a glimpse of her one day while sitting in the doctors office doing stupid pet tricks with a poodle on a morning show. I thought – wow, look how far she fell. It looks like she’s had a ‘come to Jesus’ moment and figured out just how overwhelmingly powerful MAGA really is, and look at her go – back on the Trump train, or at least painting herself apolitical while she talks conservative -ish. I personally think that once they go globalist, (looking at you, Tulsi), you always have to wonder who they ‘really’ are.
I’m not sure how much of her “Get Trump” attitude was of her own doing vs. how much her paymasters influenced her opinions. I know that I’ve read enough from multiple sources that many so called “Independent” commentators are influened to either not talk about a certain subject or to spin something a certain way that is not really their own opinion. For example Tucker Carlson had the 2,000 mules director on his show and they discussed everything but the elephant in the room, namely the movie that had just been released within the previous 2 weeks or so. I’m pretty sure that that wasn’t by Tucker’s choice but a decision made by the people paying the bills.
She has some Serious bona fides to earn, this time! It’s going to be a hard row, for her.
But once she thinks she is safely “high enough”, will this New wiser Megyn last, or fall off her stool again.
She is like most so called journalists. She took an opportunity to attempt
to take down someone because she thought it would benefit her professionally.
I think she had her panties in a serious twist from the Hollywood tape release and was not in her right mind trying to get him eliminated from the race because of it
In that first debate, August 2015, she was following the orders of Rupert Murdoch, owner of Fox News Corp.
I suspect Megyn Kelly is just following the money, like usual.
She thought Hillary would undoubtedly win and went with “the Flow” dump her morals in the trash baskets. She has some WORK to do to overcome what she did to herself without help from ANY ONE ELSE AT ALL!, including her own Skirts! (and her own chairs.)
President Trump or Governor DeSantis?
Starting to believe that it is beyond anyone’s control.
It depends how things are going in 2024.
DeSantis is NOT a ‘things are really bad, I can fix it’ type of presidential candidate. He is more of a ‘things are not OK, just needs to be tweaked’ kind of presidential candidate.
Come 2024 if things just need to be ‘tweaked’, why not vote for whoever the dimmocrats put forward?
If things are like they are now or worse, there is only one choice.
Would like to also say that the concept of one person serving nonconsecutive terms should be talked about more. 🧐
I hope you will go back and read Sundance’s posts on DeSantis’ donors and ties to Paul Ryan and the EstabGOP.
Give me MAGA candidates or there’s no reason to vote. GOP and DEM are opposite wings of same buzzard and We the People are the carcass they split up. I’ve had enough. No more EstabGOP for me.
Same.
Obamboolzer’s Democommunists are still in control for two very long years. There will be nothing left.
Do you live in FL? If so, what DeSantis are you watching?
the one who does just enough to look conservative with the exception of his response to Ian……..other than that he is pandering to the RINO crowd
Uh uh, he took on Disney, banned CRT, refused to close small businesses during the covid hoax, outlawed mandates, Florida has tax surplus etc etc. I could go on all day. The reality is that, unless you are independently wealthy, you have to raise funds. Billions in the case of the POTUS.
So if Trump does not run, who are you gonna vote for?
Not the guy who was pre-selected to replace him after his buddies took him out.
No. Megyn Kelly is dead right.
DeSantis has screwed the pooch and will keep on the same track, the same way such as Ted Cruz, and Paul Ryan and Kevin McCarthy and Kinzinger have done.
Eric Cantor.
DeSantis bought his own sales pitch. He loves what he sees in his own mirror.
I don’t want any more “tweeking” from the District of Corruption uniparty elites. No thank you. As MeAgain Kelly says, I will not abandon Trump for a Desantis, Lake or anyone else who is the “flavor of the day”.
Donald Trump, just like Mike Lindell, pledged his life, honor and fortune for the greater good of this country. Have any of the others mentioned for 2024 did that? 🤔
Actually, YES.
Respectfully, coalman you need to get out more often.
Across America, there is a WHOLE HOST of true MAGA Candidates, for US Congress and Senate, STATE LEGISLATURES, Govs, SoS’s, AG, and “lesser offices” that HAVE pledged EVERYTHING for the greater good.
WHAT do you see, for example, as KL’S Future, should they stealthe election in Nov?
Think she has aby future in broadcasting? HUH!
Ditto for Deperno, loomer, Mastriono, KK, CC, and so many more.
ALL who campaign on ending covid mandates, and 2020 was stolen, are being attacked just as visciously as PDJT has been, and will be destroyed, if possible; not just driven from politics, DESTROYED.
WE now have an “officer corps” for our growing MAGA ‘army’, and are taking it to the enemy, even more than in 2016, and if you don’t SEE that, well than you ain’t paying attention.
Caramo, a TGP reporter, former female boxer, initiated a campaign to help the J6 prisoners, and raised $ for their defence, and to call attention to their plight, amongst other things.
She is now running for NYS assembly, i.e. the STATE LEGISLATURE, which is VITAL.
You think she is not “putting it all on the line”???
Wake up and smell the cofeve, it smells like schedenfrude,…and VICTORY.
AND, while we’re on the subject, what have YOU done, to “put it all on the line” for MAGA?
Actually no they have not “put it all on the line” like like Donald Trump or Mike Lindell. Trump and Lindell have risk their fortune, families, businesses and sacred honor to save this Republic. The others are up and coming political prospects.
I agree that there are many MAGA candidates all across the country that hopefully will do as they say. We shall see. However, we have been here before with the MAGA and Tea Party supporters that turned out to be not so MAGA or Tea Party once they got elected. Um ……. let’s see…Joni Ernst, Dan Cringeshaw, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, et. al. come to mind.
Kari Lake looks very promising, as does Mastriono and many other. But like I said, we’ve been here before and I will wait and see. DeSantis appears to be doing a good job a Governor, but as Sundance has pointed out, does he have “stars in his eyes” for more? I thought that was the discussion of this thread to begin with.
Therefore, my comment was about DeSantis vs Trump. And once again, I said I would not abandon Trump for DeSantis, Lake or any other flavor of the day in 2024 if Trump decides to run. That was it.
So maybe you need to get out more and wake up and smell the “cofeve” and quit reading more into comments than was intended.
Sincerely, I don’t need a lecture from you on who or what is MAGA or what is going on in the country as I keep up. Just because I don’t comment ten or more times like you do on every thread doesn’t mean I don’t know what is going on.
It’s clear you are a Kari Lake fan the same as I am and I wish her all the MAGA best. However, she’s not even elected yet! And let’s see what she does when she is elected before we start squalling about her being a VP candidate as many have already started saying. That’s what I meant by the “flavor of the day” Once again we’ve been here before.
AND, while we are on the subject, right back at you. What have you done to “put it all on the line” for MAGA besides lecturing commenters and posting several times on each thread?
Nobody is saying abandon Trump. I love the guy, but he is pushing 80. What’s your plan B?
Good grief, what are you burbling! Vote for whoever the dems put forward?!! UGH. Go wash your mouth out with soap.
To me, this is not even about Trump vs. DeSantis.
If Actual President Trump served 6 more years or retired tomorrow, I still would not want a candidate paid for by Mitch Money.
I want one who the Swamp FEARS, not FUNDS.
The things that Sundance has already pointed out ruined DeSantis for me. The Ryan endorsement dug the hole much much deeper. I will never vote for DeSantis.
ditto..
Well good. I would advise you to not vote at all.
Just as the cabal intended
So IF it comes down to Newsom vs DeSantis in 2024, you’ll vote for Newsom? smh
I am thinking if it came down to the disloyal RDS vs PDJT in the 2024 Primary, you would vote for dishonor
It won’t come down to DeSantis vs Newsom, in 2024.
So, your hypothetical is invalid.
On DeSantis alone, once he has Competition for the title as “the future of MAGA” his shining star will burn out.
Conservative politicians are only appealing, when there isn’t anything better.
“Lessor of two weavils”.
Desantis hasn’t done anything that any Conservative governor would/should do.
Imitation vanilla extract, and imitation maple syrup taste real good, until you taste the real thing.
If KL wins in Nov, or any of several MAGA Candidates for Governor, I wager DeSantis will cease to be a big deal, cause he simply doesn’t taste like the real thing, and we haven’t yet tasted a real MAGA Governor.
Sundances ‘exposes’ on Desantis did NOTHING to change my opinion about him, other than confirm what i already knew.
He said NOTHING about the 2020 election, just like RNC Campaign advisors told him to.
For me, that question alone is the “shiboleth”, the “friend or foe” question.
And,,PDJT clarified he feels the same, because he did the nearly unprecedented action of withdrawing his endorsement from an otherwise”good” candidate, BECAUSE that cadidate said “about 2020, lets just focus on the next election”.
Its not JUST because they stole the election from “Trump”; they stole the election from US, and then laughed about it.
Now, we see who laughs last,..
This is the most idiotic thing I have ever read. Politicians have no control over who endorses them.
They do over which ones they accept or reject.
Do you have anyone on that list?
Yes.
More of a sewage macerating pump to drain the river of filth overflowing our federal government.
You got it Gipper! ✝️
Bulls-eye.
PRECISELY!
“one the Swamp FEARS, not FUNDS ”
I like, I like!
Maybe some CTH supporters are interested in an outsiders view.
At coffee this morning sat myself and two other British Columbian President Trump supporters.
I knew of De Santis and his being bribed by the GOP thanks to Sundance.
The other two were informed of De Santis by me two weeks ago..
Neither of the three can vote in the U.S.A. if we could, none would vote for De Santis..NEVER.
Crazy, but I smell a new party should De Santis run.
Crazy..unlikely, but why not.
Pick up a few Senate seats, and go from there.
Cheers!
lookslike megyn utilized the same plastic surgeon as the karfashians.
I notice that too. Her forehead does not move, at all. He/she didn’t do a bad job like Pelosi’s surgeon.
I don’t think she looks too bad – at least not like Ronna McDaniel over at the RNDNC. She was on Bannon the other day with huge puffed up lips looking pretty ridiculous. She’s Pierre Delecto’s niece I’m pretty sure. How unserious looking.
Those blimp LIPS are just plain awful.
If DeSantis is as smart as everyone says he is, he’ll wait this one out. Not even the VP slot. His time is 2028 in a landslide.
The GOPE’s need him now, they have got to prevent Trump from making a comeback, and Ronnie is who they think can beat Trump.
They’re gonna use him as a splitter candidate in the GOP Primary…. they’ll try to split the Florida vote and any other state they think they can use him.
Oh please. DeSantis is not that stupid.
apparently he just might be
They are using him now as a spoiler candidate, in hopes of spoiling PDJT’s chances and incrementally engineering a shift away from him and creating various narratives and illusions well before a vote is even cast.
Anything the Derp State does to harm Trump electorally, any J6 fraud or other ploy, will inevitably have DeSantis’ prints upon it, he wouldn’t have entered this ring if he wasn’t assured our man would be out, so he bears responsibility for the means and methods to come.
For such I would never forgive him.
They need DeSantis like they need Al Gore.
Their preferred candidate, based on lurking CONservative Inc. Establishment Republican sites, is Youngkin.
Bottom line, their goal is to prevent Trump from regaining access to the DC White House By Any Means Necessary.
Currently, Ron is a divide and poison MAGA Republicans operation like Rubio and Cruz were in 2015/16 and Barnette was in PAs 2022 Senate race.
Isn’t gonna happen
Disagree. I will never vote for anyone connected , even remotely, to the Swamp and its Dwellers.
Not after all THIS fiasco!
HE is going to suffer for the DIMS teaching us to PAY ATTENTION to REAL CHARACTER – DeSantis ain’t got any!
Won’t work. DeSantis needs to run now. His governorship will run out (term limits) in 2026 and that would leave 2 years of him being a nobody. Fatal.
If President Trump is in the White House at that time, I’m sure he will have a spot in DC for Desantis. And a federal head of an agency or Presidential Cabinet member will add to his credentials when he runs in 2028.
That would leave him two years to build some distance from every mistake he’s ever made, and to exploit the mistakes of others. It also gives him two years to weasel into a cabinet position if there is an R in office, or find some other placeholder where he can remain relevant yet not take any blame. If By-den’s replacement takes the reigns in 2024 DeSantis will be fighting an incumbent, but considering how trashed the state of the union will be by then (like it’s not trashed already) we will be seeing a repeat of the Reagan-Carter election.
DeSantis can afford to wait a few years. The question is how long are his financial backers willing to wait before they see a return on their “investment”.
What was he before Trump blessed him? He will be that again.
Candidates for POTUS start their campaigns two years out. So what are you talking about?
I might be in the minority but I don’t think DeSantis can win enough states to win the presidency. At this point, Trump is the only Republican capable of winning states like Wisconsin, Michigan and PA. Unfortunately that is where things are in America. If not for Trump coming along, Bush might have been the last GOP President.
losing the majority of MAGA for backstabbing PDJT he would even lose his OWN state
That’s the old Megyn Kelly before somebody sold her on a lie about her future and how to accomplish it. Glad to see her again.
Her move was a gigantic success tho. She is set up with generational wealth now.
Me too. Used to love her before she went to the dark side. Nice to see her in the sunshine again.
I trust her about as much as I trust Ben Shapiro now. Occasionally will listen to either of them, but with a huge amount of caution.
I agree, Dixie. The old Megyn Kelly was the old Megyn Kelly when the old FOX was the old FOX.
We will see.
She stated the obvious but imo missed an opportunity to point to the main reason behind the robust MAGA support. President Trump’s support for a 2024 run isn’t just because the 2016 election was stolen from him or that he was hamstrung during his first term but it’s because he delivered so much that he promised in spite of fierce non-stop opposition working against him.
Wish these pundits would highlight and compare all of his accomplishments against past presidents and any possible future opponents and ask if they could survive let alone deliver such success as Trump did under the same circumstances he faced!! We were prospering nationally and individually under Trump due to his policies. If this was reiterated, anyone trying to denounce this would only highlight his capabilities of serving our collective best interests vs. those seeking to fulfill self-serving political goals for themselves or their respective party. Trump isn’t beholden to anyone but us and the proof is in the mere fact he didn’t or doesn’t need the job for financial or political gains.
I think you are correct. Its not just the retribution angle she thinks it is.
Trump is the ONLY Republican President since Reagan that is not all hot air [uni-party]. Even if someone else got in and was not beholden to “the machine”, there is almost zero chance they would have his size XXL balls to get things done.
I picked up on her tepid “support” for President Trump, as well. She was intimating that Trump supporters are real bozo’s who just can’t be reasoned with. That’s a far cry from stating all the real reasons why we can’t be separated from our MAGA warrior.
Yes, our MAGA warrior.
He stood in the gap for the free world and the ENEmedia vilified him for it. They are vile, disgusting communists who thought they had us over a barrel.
How smug they all were!
Me-Again is simply warning her fellow communists that it won’t be that simple to remove this man from his MAGA base.
And she is correct. Perhaps she and her never Trumper ilk had best grab their teddy bears and head to the nearest RINO safe space so they can cry in their Pinot Grigios!
Here here. 👍
Right
100%
Now that the hurricane crisis in Florida has passed, Sundance reverts to his true “Never DeSantis” self.
Anything that McConnell and Ryan are for, cannot be a good thing.
you ever consider it could be a head fake?
…interesting
Wrong. Sundance has never uttered a word against DeSantis as Governor.
Stop trolling.
What?
Sundance has repeatedly lauded Desantis AS FLORIDAS GOVERNOR, commending him on his performance AS Governor.
And, with that made it pretty clear he will vote for RDS, FOR GOVERNOR, in November.
ALLhe is done, is point out a # of key indicators, that point to RDS as being CLOSELY connected to the GOPe machine, that is DESPERATE to find someone, anyone (Cruz, Rubio, Halley, ANYONE) they can use to pull the base away from “Trump” so they can get back the Republican party of Romney/Bush.
You may have missed the news that DeSantis is owned by R0ve, McTurkey, and GOPe Inc.
DeSantis was a JAG representing SEALs when he served in the military. I remember when he was chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Subcommittee and there was a video of the acting director of the DODIG, Glenn Fine giving testimony. Ron treated this swamp monstrosity with kid gloves. Maybe he thought he and Glenn were in the same “big club”, just like Gen. Flynn did with Strzok and Pientka (both mega swamp creatures) when he had that private convo. in his office that led to him being run through the DS lawfare wringer.
The Intelligent thing to do for anyone who loves America for its Foundation and Constitution.
DeSantis showed hisself for what he is.
He isn’t going to wake up tomorrow as a new, smarter genuine American man, instead of a cheap sell-out willing to go all commie or all Nazi, depending on which pays the most.
Wanting De Santis to be Florida’s governor for another four years == being”Never De Santis”??????
Very puzzling opine.
Sundance is stating facts and let’s each person decide. You labeled him ‘never desantis’, that’s on you.
So, you think Ryan is not uniparty?
Interesting that MK got her directives from FOX news to shoot down DJT but she could not! Now she knows. And after some decent facial work and calm demeanor, she is now relying on her Albany New York law degree to think straight and give informed commentary to other media hacks, as she once one was and maybe still is?
MK realizes that no matter how good she looks or how much she talks, we don’t believe her lineofcrap anymore. She is trying to dig herself out of the hole she so happily dug for herself.
Yep, she got a glimpse of the Ring-of-Power and morphed into Gollum in record time.
She reminds me of Ann Coulter. Once she endorsed and jumped on Mitten’s bandwagon, she lost ALL respect I had for her. I still like some of the stuff she writes but the trust is gone. Once trust is lost, it is rarely regained by anyone. Trump understands this 100%
AnnC thinks she is a high class polemicist but she is no more than a money seeking contrarian who uses her sarcasm and snide viewpoint to promote mostly herself that is often the opposite side she has argued in the recent past. She then packages those 200 word commentaries into columns for the amusement of those who admire her skills (not ever sincerity) with words.
Some people Can and Do change – for Real.
She is smart enough to do it. But Character is a lot more than Just merely Smarts.
They have to WANT to have Character, over and above the other “pretty dainties” waved in their faces like carrot sticks on a string.
Lots of differences between being the Real THING or just “playing one on TV”.
Time will tell.
As she once SEEMED to be and Possibly COULD be, sometime in the Future.
Rubin has the political acumen of a small soap dish.
Why use the word AGAINST when referring to Trump and DeSantis, unless you are trying to create division.
Because DeSantis and his handlers have telegraphed very clearly it is DeSantis vs Trump. The silence after Aug 8 told it all.
Sometimes saying what is so creates division. That’s always been the case; that is not a fresh moral crisis.
Hmmm, b/c the quisling DC rinos are going to use him to try to block PDJT.
“Against” didn’t create the division.
DeSantis let his true nature show.
Nothing you can do about the Divisions caused by someone’s Self Revelation of their genuine Character – especially when the revelation is totally UNPROVOKED.
Trump made the Overtures.
DeSantis smashed them all back into Trumps’ face and didn’t even bother to wipe his muddy bloody feet off on the front door mat.
We wish we had a Governor like DeSantis. He’ll run when PT is done being president for the third time.
Regardless of “what you mean”, POTUS Trump cannot be president for a third time.
45, 46, 47
as he is in actuality a shadow POTUS atm, his NEXT term would be his 3rd
I would disagree with that, unless you mean President in Exile.
The actual shadow pResident at the moment is the Obammunist.
A dark shadow indeed.
Move to Florida
FRDS
His job isn’t to win in the primary and win the election in the general.
His job is to:
lose in the primary, but weaken Trump to the point the Democrat wins the presidency.
Or: beat Trump in the primary, at which point the group handling him turns on him, and the Democrat wins.
You’ll notice Democrats have their fingers all in Republican primaries, meddling with the result to best help their guy in the general.
I can’t think of any instances of the opposite, where Republicans are meddling in Dem primaries. Probably because Democrats don’t suffer from the RINO plague that we do.
All Democrats politicians are Democrats , and 1/3 of Republican politicians are Democrats…..
I should mention that the House republican caucus THREW the 2018 election to the democrats, on purpose, by resigning en mass and allowing democrats to win republican slots. If they would have stayed in we would have kept the house in GOP hands.
It helps to remember that there is the democrat party on one side, and the republican wing of the democrat party on the other. Two slightly different sides of the exact same coin.
Respectfully disagree, corvairfan.
The Uniparty doesn’t CARE whether the WH occupant has an “R” or a “D” after their name.
After all, they view POTUS as a ‘figurehead’ position only.
They KNOW WE are pissed off, and so are perfectly willing to give us a symbolic victory, by having a R “win” in 2024, just so long as its a GOPe approved (NOT TRUMP!) Candidate.
BIDEN admin has raced to push their agenda, they are willing to have an R in the WH, and to make a show of trying to stem the tide, as part of the kabuki theater that is DC.
Given Biden admins unpopularity, i THINK they realise, the only way a Dem has a shot at winning the general, is to run AGAINST Joes policies, and thats simply not credible; at this point, the whole party has jumped the shark, and can’t go back.
hence, the Uniparty dodge; like mikey, in the life cerael commercial; “Put a Republican in there, THAT will fool them!”
I THINK that is their strategy, for 2024.
Your assertions are all. plausible. The goal is keep Trump out whatever the cost.
This girl has something I am drawn to even beyond her looks and persona…me like! However, what I have heard outside of media chatter and wishful thinking blather is that the Ron said he wouldn’t run against the Don if he chose to run…and another time I heard he had discussions about this with Trump and they agreed to run as a ticket and Ron would be VP and look after all the home-front stuff which he does so well and that Don would be in charge of international big picture stuff
Now, I think that would be a perfect mix….and then he could run with Kari or Candice etc next time…maybe Tulsi the way things are headed ha ha. Anyway, you guys have plenty of good candidates I must say. The above team might seem a little like two bulls in the china shop, but if they have some separation of duties and have trust in each other and I guess Trump would need veto powers to be able to allow such a team-up…..
I’d vote for them, and if you send me a ballot to Australia, I will.
Poor Dave – his face showed everything. Who knew Megan was this smart and would say it out loud to Dave.
Florida, still a destination for those seeking to abort their baby. And it will only get worse, since Al and Ga got serious about abortion after Dobbs.
Florida, still 30th in gun rights.
Florida, just passed the highest (per capita and overall) state budget in our history.
Florida, still the only southern ‘red’ state with red flag laws.
We’re soooooooo conservative y’all.
TX is fake also. Both are media creations that will crumble within 10 years.
How so archie? I’m not saying TX can’t improve, but I’m curious what you mean.
I don’t think you would like blueMA very much!
I’m sure I wouldn’t; all I can do it is fight for the state my family has been in for a very long time.
Just how serious is Desantis about election Integrity?
One of his hand chosen, RINO backed school board candidates was disqualified for lying about his address to qualify, a third degree felony. Al Hernandez, the candidate also lied on his license and voted in the primary using the fake address. That’s another third degree felony.
https://www.tampabay.com/news/florida-politics/elections/2022/10/10/pasco-judge-disqualifies-desantis-backed-school-board-candidate-lawyers-say/?outputType=amp
NOT….no SERIOUS election reform in house and NO 2020 audit after he saw what went on around the nation…….his lack of any meaningful push on the issue should alert you to his lack of concern that the Dimm/commie/GOPe have been stealing elections for years
Is it possible Desantis is an arranged pon to split the Republican party up? Something is off with him given he really isn’t openly supportive of Trump. Example he said little and had no outrage over FBI invasion on Mar A Logo.
I think most of us are quite sure that DeSantis is just the candidate that the anti-Trump Republicans (like Paul Ryan) want to run in 2024. DeSantis won’t even mention Trump’s name now, but when he was running for Governor the first time (2018) he sure looked like he was a Trump ally:
I got into this exact discussion on twitter.. but I am old, and not too clever.. There is no way I want to see Ronnie run. That and part of me looks back to when we were told that there is no way he would run.. I am selfish.. I want my GD nation back.. I want DT to trigger every idiotic liberal into a meltdown.. I WANT REVENGE… but I know tha DT is smarter than I am.. He will do what is best for the nation… How could Don and Ron not work this out for all of us??
Bless and keep SD… he is a ray of hope,, not matter what.
45 = 47 and Ron can wait till 28.
Wouldn’t it be interesting if both Trump and Ron DeSantis ran for president in 2024 and then, right before the Republican National Convention, Trump announced his VP as Ron DeSantis? If that happened, I could see heads exploding everywhere. Especially Mitch McConnell’s.
Of course, this would be coordinated between them so neither candidate crucified each other on the campaign trail leading up to that point. This way, at least one of them would get funding from the RNC, which is run by McConnell.
Well… It COULD happen.😁
DeSantis is being pimped by mainstream media (even Dem media), RINOs (e.g., Paul Ryan), and anti-Trump pundits. There’s no way DeSantis will be VP to Trump. I’m quite sure they are not friendly any more, but DeSantis sure used Trump to win his Governor election in 2018 …
That is the way it looks based on what has happened so far. Not that I think what I wrote is realistic on its face but if one were to play the game like the democrats, in the same vein they run as moderates to fool the voters etc. etc., it isn’t out of the realm of (slim) possibilities.
and forfeit FL’s 29 EC votes….pretty stupid start to a POTUS run
MeeAgain’s Killer B’s can only take her so far
Especially now that she has them demurely covered.
Megyn Kelly was EXTREMELY KIND to the Dems and also to DeSantis, but she was very Firm..
If she stay CONSISTENT, in This vein, she MIGHT gain her former position back again, though many would never fully trust her again.
It was very interesting to see her do a good job of this.
I Wonder what her Complete Opinion of DeSantis really is, she NEVER REALLY gave a Definitive evaluation of him, in this short piece.
And I confess saying more than she did about him ANY WAY AT ALL would NOT be smart at THIS time to do – it is too far out.
Let DeSantis do himself, with his own decisions. Not wise to Help, OR to Hurt him at this point.
Especially do not help him with HINTS on how to fool the people with insincere moves on his part.
But then, I think he is a RAT.
NOT someone who wants to LEARN how to do what is RIGHT better than his own instincts are leading him into.
He in MY “humble opinion” just wants to know what he can do to FOOL THE PEOPLE – ENOUGH of the Time. to get what He wants out of it.
I was waiting for her to address the question as to whom is controlling Joe Biden.
She answered by saying that Joe Biden is “not well.” Then she described the times when he
showed his dementia. Hopefully, he will get tested by a competent physician.
I doubt that the test will happen.
didn’t Biden already have a physical and some doctor hack
said he was in great health?
Well, we MAGA know the truth so we will know if she goes back to her old ways.
We are a lot smarter about the media and the criminal aspects of our government now.
Megyn Kelly? Really? DeSantis has already stated (when he started his campaign for Governor) that he has no plans to run for POTUS before his next term as Governor is over. So why the smear campaign?
Why is the Governor running national ads for a governorship?
Because he is running for president. After his governorship is over.
In the PAST Ron said what any savvy career politician says who is running for office.
Times change and so do the plans of politicians once they get what they want ie they win their election.
For me, in 2024 these are the ONLY options:
Trump or Trump.
Father or son. Eric or Don.
Four more years or eight.
DeSantis has already stated (when he started his campaign for Governor) that he has no plans to run for POTUS before his next term as Governor is over
Can you find a documented quote of that?
Do your own research.
Not good at information wars but what if DeSantis is throwing out bait for the GOP?
When would criminality come into play? When they ask the first favor in email or text?
Trump could always pardon him – job well done. Just Sunday thoughts of mine from CA, USA.
So you are saying DeSantis is gonna bite the hand that feeds him. Lol
Trump is the one to best Trump however the fly in the ointment is Tulsi Gabbard , Of she runs an intelligent hard campaign as an independent that could easily pull votes away from Trump and the democrat . Probably not enough for her to win but enough to push the democrat over the finish line in 2024
A win win could be a Trump Gabbard ticket !
She some nice attributes, but not nearly enough MAGA points to be a major contender before 2032
Marxists ain’t MAGA.
If Tulsa ran as a 3rd Party candidate, she would pull voters from the Democrat candidate in 2024. She wouldn’t pull voters from President Trump.
My current favorite VP pick is Steve Cortes, the Chalk Talk Guy but I’m comfy letting President Trump pick his running mate. Whoever it is will be in my prayers.
I don’t know that there are many Dem voters left in the party, that would vote for Tulsi; they have all already walked away.
I mentioned TG ‘s walkaway to my Nazi sister, and she foamed at the mouth in denouncing her.
the fly in the ointment is Tulsi Gabbard
I’m sorry but you men have to work past your lust of Tulsi and realize she’s a sh*t Dem just like all of the rest of the Dems. She’s Elizabeth Warren in a much more attractive package, and probably not as smart as Warren. If Gabbard had any sense or any decency she would have left the Dem party a long time ago.
LOL….that was my response when she asked “common sense” Dimm/commies to leave the party when it took her 20 YEARS to get a clue
Gabbard is a fake, and a snake. Seriously, some people just deserve the venom!
Megyn Kelly gives many good truths, but not the whole truth.
She won’t admit to any wrongdoing against President Trump, it’s only his base that believes he was screwed out of the 2020 election and hamstrung during his first term.
She said the Executive was never intended to be so powerful when the founding fathers wrote the constitution, but omitting that it’s the entirety of the federal government that wasn’t supposed to have much power. The Executive is but one person, without the three other branches ( a reference to the 4th branch) he could do nothing. She did say though, she would rather see governors make policy, which was the founders intent.
All in all though, she was refreshing.
YES!
while I dislike her intensely, what she told Mr Rubin is exactly where I stand. I did really like her stating that many MAGA would view an RDS run as very disloyal to President Trump. IMO, RDS owes Trump Bigly for saving Ron’s campaign for Governor.
Aa resident of Florida for 70+ years, the RDS campaign was as bad as one can get until President Trumps team got it straightened out. Gillum was a shoe in up to that time, shudder.
That was one BIG red pill!
Rubin is going through grief stages because he likely signed on to the DeSantis train and he realized Megan is an example of what happens when you sell out.
Look at Pence. He is the poster child of what will happen to DeSantis. They stoked his ego he’d be the next big thing and then tossed him out with the trash after he sold out. His ONLY chance of ever getting to be President was by becoming the VP again. He’s nothing now.
DeSantis will go against Trump, destroy all of that MAGA support and be left like Glenn Beck, Pence, Megan… the list goes on and on.
Not interested in anyone but Trump until Trump decides he’s done.
Amen. IMO Trump has first right of refusal. 🙂 Or as we like to say in Chicago, “dibs”. 🙂
I I’ve been making the same points as Megyn. The Republican establishments THINKS they can just transfer the MAGA supports to DeSantis. This rarely works. It didn’t work for Hilary and it didn’t work for Gore for the Democrats. And it didn’t work for Romney, McCain, or Jeb Bush. You have to earn the votes for many. And many US citizens are opening their eyes and not voting strictly by party. Trump got votes from people who hadn’t voted ever or in years, he inspired people to vote which the establishment couldn’t seem to accomplish in their decades of being in power. Whomever runs in 2024 needs to go and talk to the people and earn the votes of Hispanics and African Americans like Trump was doing. If the establishment thinks they can just transfer support they have another thing coming to them.
“Whomever runs in 2024 needs to go and talk to the people and earn the votes……..”
Last time a large group of voters took off the rose colored glasses and voted beyond party lines they were known as Reagan Democrats.
Yes, MAGA voters will not vote for DeSantis over President Trump.
They would make the most excellent team in my opinion 👍
I like this new version of Megan Kelly. She’s solid.
Megyn is no slouch analyzing accurately before events became fact; other than what was not seen not even by her when it came to behind the scene re. elections 2020 as we know them now.
America’s Great Divide
This group photo in the article. What the hell is that, a midget basketball team?
Dinky Dave Reiboi is like 5’2, the Spud Webb of that group and that’s saying something.
Well … I’m amazed that she has the pulse of we MAGA Republicans … living in her insulated multi-millionaire bubble. Sadly, the Party doesn’t. They still haven’t figured out that we’re OVER IT. After McCain and Romney … we said ENOUGH with this middle of the road nonsense … we are NEVER gonna “be nice” ever again. What does SD call it ? Cold Anger. Steely eyed determination.
She tried to take Trump out in 2015-2016. She found out we Trump supporters are very determined and very loyal.
Trust me on the cognizance test, if it will be done at all…It’ll be done by a hack….They didn’t come this far with the charade to all of a sudden stop it.
Paul Ryan thinks Ron DeSantis would be great in 2024. Enough said.
Maybe Paul Ryan should open his eyes. Maybe have a conversation with Megyn Kelly.
Prefer Ryan close his eyes, permanently as part of a dirtnap, and take mitch with him.
Megyn Kelly: “Only Trump can take down Trump”
EXACTLY what Rush Limbaugh always said. “The media did not make Donald Trump and they can’t destroy him”
She’s right. I’m voting for Trump if I have to write his name in. In fact, his is the only name I would even consider writing in. If they succeed in keeping him off the ballot, we’re all screwed anyway.
Per MK on Creepy Joe – Another day , another creepy Joe photo op in Portland ( via UK daily mail ) Getting ice cream with the super but-h looking Oregon Governor candidate and and , you guessed it, stops at table with Mother and two girls and and leans down again —-please stop ! THE accompanying candidate looked uncomfortable with it . BTW have ol joe constantly getting ice cream cones is no longer cute, if it ever was , looks now like an outing from an Adult Care Facility – watching an 80 year old man licking ice cream is not a particularly good look …
No man is above criticism even President Donald J. Trump.
If criticizing any of his actions (or lack thereof) in office is considered anti-Trump then so be it.
Purity tests aren’t helpful in politics, pragmatism is.
I don’t tolerate much criticism of Trump because 1) the criticism is (so far) always so nitpicky Trump would have to be a saint in order to meet the lofty demands of the people criticizing him and 2) he has done SO much for us, sacrificed so much, endured so much persecution, and yet he still fights for us, he doesn’t deserve any criticism at all. He proved himself to be our ally, lowered taxes, brought manufacturing back, secured the border, made peace with KJU, kept Putin and Xi in check, wiped out ISIS from Syria, and sooo much more.
I’m just partially through this interview at the point where Rubin says he wishes Trump and DeSantis could have a meeting and figure out whatever it is that they need to figure out. There’s nothing to figure out! If Trump wants to run then we’re going to support Trump. If Trump doesn’t run then 2024 is up in the air. I have already stated that I will NOT vote for DeSantis to be the GOP nominee but if he becomes the GOP I will vote for him in the general election because any Dem is going to be worse.
Does Rubin work for DeSantis? Is that why he moved to Florida? And yet he tries to sound like an impartial news analyst?
I was going to say he is Top Gov’s backseater ( a movie reference ) but then I decided not to ….
Now that Megyn isn’t obliged to be Murdoch’s pitbull, she comes across as well thought out and reasoned. I will try to get over the Hatchet Job she did on Trump “when did you stop beating your wife” along with that deceitful bore, Whatshisname.
CUT THE CORD!!!
The problem for Megan Kelly was she was obviously ordered to do a hatchet job on Trump and failed miserably. Trump personalized his attack and clubbed her like a baby seal. She had a personal meltdown. She cut her hair and her entire demeanor changed. She thrashed about for several years and was eventually fired and run off the National stage. She’s recovering now. The hair is growing out and the tense scowl is gone. She stated the facts because she personally knows what it means to go up against Trump. She said Trump takes all the oxygen in the room up. She knows…
1) she was all in on the “Trump takedown “ question – thought it was her “big” ticket and 2) true that she had a virtual breakdown afterward on her Fox. Show , but Her 30 million dollar NBC settlement payoff , has helped her to make a full recovery , plus plastic surgery upgrades have also helped …
One thing is sure, she now knows who’s good side to stay on.
Hopefully, she has learned from her near fatal mistake of pis..ng off Trump!
