There is a lot of granular dissection of the DeSantis campaign taking place as the music stops and the staff clamor for a chair.

Keep in mind, Donald Trump released his campaign fundraising details showing over a million small donors helped raise $35 million with an average contribution of $34.20.  Small donors, that’s millions of middle class and working class MAGA folks, are the fuel for President Trump’s campaign.

According to the latest FEC filing [DATA HERE] the DeSantis campaign team took in $20.1 million, but burned through $7.9 million in just six weeks.  This presents a major problem for the campaign, because over two-thirds of those contributions were from maxed-out donors who cannot contribute again.  Only 15% of DeSantis campaign fundraising came from small donors.

[DATA HERE]

As NBC notes, “the numbers suggest, for the first time, that solvency could be a threat to DeSantis’ campaign, which has touted its fundraising ability as a key measure of viability.”  The big problem for Ron DeSantis is his reliance on big donors.

(NBC) – […] more than two-thirds of DeSantis’ money — nearly $14 million — came from donors who gave the legal maximum and cannot donate again, NBC’s analysis shows. Some of those donors gave the $3,300 limit for both the primary and general elections, boosting DeSantis’ totals with cash that can’t be used to try to defeat Trump.

DeSantis finished June with more than $12.2 million in the bank, but his filing indicates that $3 million of that can only be used in the general election. Trump’s campaign ended the quarter with $22.5 million on hand. At the same time, DeSantis spent about 40 percent of what he raised, in part by paying salaries to 92 people (before the staff firings).

The issue of relying on billionaires, rich people, corporations and Wall Street was always an Achilles heel for DeSantis. Once those donors have contributed the maximum amount, either individually or through bundling their friends to support him, that’s it.

Here’s a fun blast from the past.  Yesterday, someone mentioned S&H Green Shield stamps and the stuff we used to purchase with them.

Today, I was having a conversation about communicating old school with a person, and about how the generation soon to come will find new methods to avoid the censors and monitors.  I mentioned the Green Shield stamp reminder and we had a blast reminiscing about all the stuff we used them for.

I think just about every small appliance and cookware for my very first apartment was the result of using S&H Greenshield stamps.

So the conversation expands…. Date yourself.  How many of you remember them, and what did you use them for?

Generally speaking I skip most punditry stuff nowadays simply because it is fraught with too much pretending. Factually, when the baseline of the review is grounded on a false premise, the sequential review of potential outcomes is flawed and generally irrelevant.

That said, this is one of the rare punditry opinions that hits close to accurate {direct rumble link}.  Everything in this brief segment is close to the mark, Ned Ryun is at least one of those pundits who actually hits the target.  The flaw, part of the pretending that he misses, is in the outlook that if “republicans” -implying the RNC- can generate a ballot harvesting operation to compete, then Trump will defeat Newsom.

The issue Ryun misses is that professional republicans, the private corporations that are assembled under the unity banner of the professional republican apparatus (RNC), when given the Trump vs Newsom scenario, do not want Trump to defeat Newsom.  The win/win scenario for the multinationals is a Trump defeat, irrelevant of the victor, that’s the major flaw within the pretending issue inherent in almost all political analysis.  WATCH:

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

~ Mike Vanderboegh

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

From the interview it is clear that Ron DeSantis handlers have spent a considerable amount of time in intensive training on scripted talking points. Additionally, based on what is visible in the body language of DeSantis he’s juiced.

Watch how DeSantis is fidgeting with the microphone when Tucker is talking. Watch how DeSantis takes a drink of water. Look at the exaggerated mannerisms that are highlighted by a seemingly high-energy state.

Also notice DeSantis never answers a question, but sticks to rehearsed points. Not a single question is answered, despite Carlson asking specifics on Ukraine three times. WATCH:

Senator Tim Scott was one of the original attendees at the first Sea Island confab that was assembled to evaluate the risk represented by candidate Donald Trump in the 2016 election.  Republican political leadership, corporate officers, Wall Street hedge fund managers, Big Tech and a host of multinational interests attended the first meeting.

During that early 2016 meeting, the groundwork to oppose the America-First agenda was established.  The entire group then continued to take action throughout 2016 and into the administration of President Trump to mitigate his attack upon the ‘one world order’ globalist alliance they supported. Every single member of that original meeting was against the America First agenda and they have maintained that position through today.

Tim Scott attended that first meeting and has maintained his DeceptiCON bona fides ever since.  Every element of the GOPe are in sync with the Tim Scott neocon agenda as outlined in these remarks below. WATCH:

There is one commonality amid all those who are skilled at the art of deception; one thing they all require in order to advance their position against their targets.  Every deceiver relies upon their ability to stop people from trusting their instincts.  This is why you will see me reminding everyone, repeatedly, to remain centered in your faith of a loving God, and TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS.

In this short soundbite with Nikki Haley, Tucker Carlson asks the former U.N. Ambassador, “who blew up the Nordstream pipeline?”  Ambassador Haley is completely frozen and caught off guard.  Does she retain the neocon position, or does she tell the truth – she’s stuck.  WATCH: 

Beyond that response, think about something carefully.  In a field of multiple candidates where the issue of U.S policy toward Ukraine is being discussed as part of the format questioning, if there was one person in the entire group you would ensure received that question it would be the former UN ambassador.  However, for some seemingly incurious reason, Nikki Haley never received that question from Tucker Carlson.

Take from that reality what you will.  However, the reality of that question not being asked is real.  The full remarks from Nikki Haley are below.
