Kari Lake thinks she won 😅

 

also, she didn’t realize that if you hold one position in government that you can still be picked for VP..

 

I could be wrong, but I think Nikki Haley is far more of a threat to Biden than either Donald or meatball. 
 

the reality is that at this point it’s unlikely that Donald’s supporters will jump to meatball, but that isn’t the issue.

 

the issue is meatball brings out the same fear with younger liberals that Trump does. Gen Z cancelled out Boomers last time. If they do that again, the GOP will need different demographics to skew their way. Which meatball won’t get.
 

Meanwhile, Haley could probably snag some of the moderate ww vote. She’s also not seen as quite the same level as lunatic as Donald and Meatball (even though she absolutely is) by Gen Z, which might depress their vote a tad. 
 

the question is whether or not she can make it out of the GOP primary,

As always with Trump, it best to wait and see. Some think this was a fundraising gimmick. Fox is reporting a walk back. I guess we’ll find out on Tuesday….. 

 


Here’s what Trump was

doing tonight.

Could be a gimmick. It’s strange that he knows he’ll be indicted? Like if that’s true, how is he not on a plane to Russia? (Unless Daddy Putin is mad???) you’d think they’d do it faster. Though NYC has clearly been very close to an indictment for a while. 

 

on the other side, he likes inciting violence on his name, and that’s what he’s doing now. So we’ll see.

The right to assemble and express views through peaceful protest is protected by the First Amendment. Trump called for protest, not using violence or breaking the law.

I kinda wonder if Republicans will have this same level of furor with all their candidates or if hes just a special case.


He’s just part of the cult. Joseph may, or may not be a Republican. Joseph may, or may not be a conservative. Trump could sleep with his wife, and he’d probably still vote for him.

He didn’t call for a peaceful protest.

I thought Trump is supposedly just making stuff up a couple weeks ago, when he said he'll be indicted.

 

Timing is everything. Just think what major stories have been bumped from the headlines.

No one wanted to be the first to indict him, everyone will want to be the second. He’s got a lot more potential

criminal cases coming. 
 

DeSantis has to be breathing a sigh of relief. He was about to be laughed out of running because of the Disney situation. Now all eyes are off him for the moment.

It will be interesting to see how Trump's polling numbers would change in the coming weeks. Here's the Fox News poll released yesterday:

 

Fox News Poll: Trump's lead grows in GOP primary race, now over 50% support

Note the change from last month. His lead over DeSantis doubled from 15pts to 30pts. And DeSantis have been promoted a lot on Fox News the past couple of weeks, and has been meeting voters on his book tour, while Trump has to deal with the threat of indictment (which has now happened).
