I'm surprised anyone is surprised Trump will likely run away with it.  Outside of him dying, I don't know what stops him.  Which I can't say I mind...Trump is an absolutely loathsome scumbag and deserves every bad thing that could happen to a person, but DeSantis is pure evil...that could would be so much worse, because he actually believes in the vile shit he does.

Not really surprised but still hard to accept

I said - on here- that Trump was going to crush Desantis but I did think someone would put up a token resistance


And that was dozens of indictments ago

I guess it’s still early

the problem with desantis is that he has a plan (a horrible one) and he's competent.  trump's lack of those two things is the only reason we got through his presidency.

Sure, he has a plan. But less Americans will vote for him then non-plan Trump.

Agree, sweetcell, though i will say the other benefit of Trump was he was hated because he really was a political outside, and it actually gave Dems a (slight) urgency to oppose him.  DeSantis is at least a politician, and if there's one things Dems love, it's being ok with horrific policies from the other side of the aisle because, as bad as they might be, that's just how politics works! At least with Trump they could pretend he was some outlying force of bad.

And yeah, Space, I think DeSantis is just too focused on shit that only internet weirdos care about, and is making that his entire platform.  Not to mention he's a really off-putting freak

Perhaps DeSantis is just (1) a one-issue candidate and (2) was the beneficiary of a disgustingly weak Democratic slate of candidates in the 2022 midterms.

People liked DeSantis’ COVID view. That issue is, for the most part, over.

It's also weird to have essentially ridden Trump's coat tails and spend years trying to be Trump and then making a case that you should be the nominee over Trump.  Like, they can't even hit him for losing the last election, because they all went in on saying he didn't lol

Imagine serving in combat as I did, fighting for American ideals, and giving an oath that meant you might lose your life in defense of our Constitution, only to witness the complete subversion of that Constitution just a few years later by the very Administration now holding power.

Imagine witnessing a nation built on the promise of freedom trying to take that freedom away from a man who sacrificed everything to rebuild the United States we once knew. 

Imagine knowing that the next election is a choice between re-electing an American President willing to give his freedom to save our nation or watching that man be imprisoned by a regime so corrupt we’ve run out of whistleblowers to describe the corruption.

The endless indictments of Trump are really an indictment of a free society, an indictment on the American spirit, an indictment of YOU. 

Donald Trump is symbol of resistance for every man and woman who believe in a free society, a strong independent nation, secure borders, secure communities, a strong economy, and an America that resembles the nation we want our children to inherit. 

This political war that Biden has waged by weaponizing the most powerful levers of justice is doing irreparable harm to the United States.

But fear not America, Trump will be our nominee.
