WestCanMan Posted February 8, 2023 Report Share Posted February 8, 2023 Do you really want to go through 4 more years of the MSM Borking Olympics? Is America really in a strong enough position to endure another 4 years of MSM poop-flinging? Trump inherited a mad world in 2016 but America wasn't going down the drain at that point. I can't imagine things being as bad as they are now and having the whole MSM intent on making them worse. Sure, Trump was a strong president in 2016 when he came in as a 72 yr old, but now he'll be 78 when he gets in - the same age as Biden was in 2020. And Biden wasn't showing overt signs of dementia in 2016, just four years before his tragic presidential campaign in 2020. He did his infamous quid pro quo speech in March 2016 and he was quite lucid and coherent the whole time. Can you imagine how bad things could get if Trump ended up being in Biden's mental state, and then was being harangued, slandered and libelled 24/7 by a hostile MSM? He had a great run from 2016-2020, but the sequel is never as good as the original movie. Ideally he'd step aside and support DeSantis, but I think he's too much of a fighter. I hope it doesn't end up hurting the GOP. Quote If CNN gave an infinite number of monkeys an infinite number of typewriters, leftists would believe everything they typed.

Moonlight Graham Posted February 8, 2023 Report Share Posted February 8, 2023 Trump lost the last election. Then Jan. 6 happened. He's done. Good luck getting the swing voters now. DeSantis yeah no thanks. If this is the best the GOP can offer that's pretty sad. Same for Biden in 2020 i guess. An election of an authoritarian conman vs a dementia patient.

My father had MCI for 10 years before it got bad enough to verge on dementia. AFAIK, he was never diagnosed with dementia before he died. People with actual dementia are unable to find their way home and get lost in previously familiar surroundings. AKA, no longer independently functional.

bush_cheney2004 Posted February 8, 2023 Report Share Posted February 8, 2023 President Donald Trump has already made his legacy in American political history...adding a second term would not top his most impactful achievement(s): 1) Defeating GOP favorites in primaries to easily get the 2016 nomination 2) Against all oddmakers, narrowly defeating Hillary Clinton in the general election (his greatest contribution). 3) Taking a stand against economic globalism, NATO deadbeats, and illegal immigrants. 4) U.S. Supreme Court and federal circuit court appointments to favour stricter Constitutional rulings. Trump's many failures will dog him and the GOP as well, so there is no reason to continue to invest in another Trump candidacy. Persisting in doing so will only make another Biden term possible. I agree that Trump had a great run. Time for America to move on. 2 Quote Economics trumps Virtue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationalist Posted February 8, 2023 Report Share Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) So many folks predicting DeSantis will run. I'm not so sure. Ron DeSantis is very well entrenched in Florida. It's his to lead for as long as he wants. If he runs I think he'd be elected with no problem. The Democrats could never cheat enough to beat him. But I just don't think he wants the job quite yet. We will see. Edited February 8, 2023 by Nationalist Quote Its so lonely in m'saddle since m'horse died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it doesn't end up hurting the GOP. Trump is going to run in 2024, and I can understand the concerns about his age. But we are looking ahead into the future, the unknown. Let’s first take a look at what he’s been up to since Jan 20, 2021. He’s been working hard since he left office, hasn’t he? Rally after rally, and more importantly, speaking the truth about the Biden government wherever he goes. The border. The economy. The trans, climate, and Ukraine agendas. Hunter. On and on it goes, dropping truth bombs. Thats been giving conservatives hope and courage all this time, all across North America. When there otherwise didn’t seem to be any. He’s been relentless, not bad for an old guy. And fighting off dozens of law suits at the same time. I’ve never seen anything like it. His efforts have helped to give energy to conservative pundits and the social media platforms. People I watch on YouTube for instance. We all know he’s doing things in the background that may never even come to light. He’s earned the right to step into the ring one more time. The media that hounded him are down by one. CNN, or the fake news, as he liked to call them, are toast. Do you think that’s a coincidence? He won that battle. But if he runs, he’ll be wiser in regards to the needless tweeting, etc, I think. Oh yeah, that’s two down, since Twitter is now an ally. A good running mate, and he’s a shoo-in. Really, in spite of the 2000 asses. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When pressed...you can't defend that statement. Why? Well that's obvious. You make emotional responses to political issues. Nobody really cares that your butt hurts at the very thought of Trump. That infliction is something you share with all the other Tweenkies on the planet. And THAT I can understand. I mean...let's face it...The Donald is an "in your face" personality. A lot of people don't like that. Hell...sometime I wish he'd just shut up myself. But the results were nothing short of spectacular. And in the end...to me and hundreds of millions...THAT is the measure of a good POTUS. To the SCOTUS. If I'm not mistaken, I believe the SCOTUS said they will not decide a presidential election and refused to hear the arguments in court. But the story of that damnable laptop is all the proof anyone needs to know that the election was fraudulent.! Trump will run and he may even win. Why? Because after 4 years of Biden's path to destruction, Americans will be in the mood for an about face. 1 Quote Its so lonely in m'saddle since m'horse died.

sharkman Posted February 8, 2023 Report Share Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) Anyway, back to the topic at hand. Yes I want Trump to have a long run this time around. But here’s the thing, with all his rallies he’s never stopped running. This is probably how he beat Biden in the latest poll. And if he has this much energy, he’ll be fine mentally for the next 6 years. Certainly better than Biden, who is so weak it’s obvious he won’t be running in 2024. That will be Harris. Against Trump. Nobody will be able to prop her up. Edited February 8, 2023 by sharkman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK well you added that alpha male thing after I'd responded to you but... It is something to consider. Would DeSantis and Trump be able to get along? Unknown but the risk they can't does exist. Good observation. Here's a "hypothetical". What would happen if...and when...Biden screws Manchin and does nothing about the nat gas industry as he'd agreed with Manchin for his acquiescence, and becomes a Republican...or even an independent...and runs as VP with Trump?

I know you don't control populism on the Conservative side, but just noticing the phenomena. 1. Yes, absolutely. I think that's been obvious since neoliberalism emerged as a force of power in America, arguably 60 years ago. 2. Yes, absolutely. This is why I think we need an extreme response to people who exhibit symptoms of the contagion: sowing doubts against the courts, the police, institutions of higher learning, and minorities... and by "doubts" I mean doubts as to their basic goals, their humanity and honesty. These are the conspiracy folks, C. 3. Trudeau's worst traits are his inability to govern, lack of imagination, and reliance on the utter somnambulance of "the" public to maintain a weak and failing status quo. You rail against populism, in left and right colours, but as has been pointed out there's an inherent malaise that is always waiting to be exploited in any "system". That is because a system shortcuts some individual benefits for the benefit of the whole. So unless we're talking about non-system cultures, such as tribal culture, you are going to have some disgruntled folks.

I know what diplomats are like...having worked with them for several years. I ran their embassy IT systems which oddly enough, made me a "manager" and privy to embassy "management meetings". I also ran the embassy pub after the military personnel were rotated out. Boy that was a hoot. Diplomats, Ambassadors, NATO representatives, even the odd Minister. They're all just humans of various intellect and political leanings. So...I would get them all drunk as skunks...and listen...and learn. Yes. I respect Putin. Only a twit would not.
