The guy has put out the dumpster fire that Trump left behind.
Wow.
Inflation. Covid lockdowns and vaccine mandates. Proxy war with Russia.
Great 2 years
Good thing Trump didn’t lock us down. He wouldn’t even let us leave the house.
“Trump asked people to stay home, avoid gathering in groups, forgo discretionary travel and stop eating in food courts and bars for the next 15 days.
"If everyone makes this change or these critical changes and sacrifices now, we will rally together as one nation and we will defeat the virus and we're going to have a big celebration all together," Trump said at a White House press briefing on March 16, 2020”
Trump just lost the republicans an easy grab at the presidency.
DeSantis has no chance of winning either. Trump already won Florida in 2020 and was still 38 electoral votes away from the presidency. What states would he be expected to flip?
Even if he chose Youngkin, he wouldn't be able to get Virginia. We hate that guy here. The only reason he was elected was because it was an off year. The past four elections show that VA is 50%+ blue when you get the higher voter turnout of a presidential year.

This means Dems did not lock down businesses? Did not mandate vaccines? Have not got us in a proxy war? Have not presided over inflation rates not seen in 40 years?
Trump asked people to do stuff does NOT = "he wouldn't let us leave the house".
Ouch! Look at today's front page picture and headline on Fox online news. Big picture of a smiling DeSantis with the headline about HIM getting a standing ovation.
We are headed towards either a split (if we are fortunate) or Civil War 2.0 (if we are not). The differences are irreconcilable at this point.
Huge swaths of politics have becomes a moral issue, and one side quite literally thinks the other is evil. Democratic process work great when you're trying to allocate and prioritize resources to problems in a similar value system.
Democracy doesn't work well when you're literally voting on two entirely different views of moral/beneficial/good. It can't. It's just a winner and a loser.
Separation is really the only (inevitable) way out. If you really think there is a reasonable (mechanistic) way you could get the conservatives to take the liberals view, by all means share, but I don't believe it exists.
I supported Trump from the escalator. I'm kinda done with the guy. Father of the Vaccines (that don't even work yet you lose your job if you don't get it) has been the best thing to help usher in the Great Reset. The World Economic Forum crowd need Trump. If he didn't exist they would need to invent him. He plays a pseudo foe and by the time he's done his next term you'll be eating bug burgers and worried about your social credit score and running to get your shot like livestock with your digital ID. His prescience has rushed this agenda.
I liked his foreign policy. I like hearing a US president telling world leaders he's not the President of the World just the USA and having a policy that lines up with that. Making genuine efforts to not just lower tensions but hasten a peace deal between the Koreas was a highlight.
The world needs to transition into a multi-polar order without US Supremacists in the Deep State blowing up the planet to stop it. Can't be stopped. Only question is how many die until we get there.

Inflation huh? You mean the same inflation happening worldwide? Inflation that’s higher in Europe and through the world? Didn’t realize Biden could influence the world economy like that (that’s sarcasm, he can’t).
next talk about gas prices…..a commodity that’s prices on world demand. And we produced Mohr oil now under Biden than ever under Trump. So let’s hear about energy independence without knowing what you’re talking about

So the policies if the US government do not impact the world?

Trump started the lockdowns.
Plus, he’s the one who gets credit for developing the Covid vaccines you guys live so much.
They said he’d beat you in the debates - wrong, you owned him.
They said he’d beat you in the Presidential Election - wrong, you wiped the floor with him.
They said the ninja warriors would find the prove of mass election fraud and reverse the election results - wrong, you’re still in office and he’s still mad.
They said a red earthquake was coming in the mid terms and Trump picks winning candidates - wrong.
Keep underestimating Joe Biden people. He wrecked Trumps politicos career twice now.

Friend of mine got duped into an abusive relationship with a smooth talker. He drove a fancy car and bought her lavish presents; they ate at fancy restaurants and got bottle service at clubs. They took a few trips to resorts. She was having fun showing it all off on Insta.
Needless to say, he left her … and left her with a mountain of debt. We helped her get credit counseling to reduce the debt, and taking on a second job has helped her make progress paying down some of it.
We figure if she keeps at it, she’ll be totally on her feet again in about five years.
But it’s been hard, and she’s been heard to say, “Things were just better when I was with him.”
Trump? You mean the guy who, WHILE PRESIDENT, didn't know that the UK was nuclear power? Who didn't know that Finland was not a part of Russia? Who doesn't know how to pronounce "Yosemite"? That guy?

When Trump won the 2016 nomination, my thought was that the Republicans had lost control of their base. Much of what has transpired since has been moderate Republicans pretending that the extremists in the party are better allies than moderate Democrats. The middle still exists and is still probably the majority position.
Politics is broken and it's mostly going to fall on moderate Republicans to fix it. In the short term this will cost them power which is why they've resisted thus far.
Trump has lost enough of his luster that the moderate Republicans now see him as sufficiently unacceptable that he probably doesn't make it out of the primaries. It remains to be seen if whoever does can draw enough of the Trump base to be successful in the general elections.

You do know that those were paid actors for his elevator stunt.

That's a bit dramatic. The most recent election showed that Americans are largely moderates. Trump's M@GA candidates lost in resounding fashion and moderate Republicans flipped enough seats to regain the House. Both parties need to note this. The media loves to spin this as a massive division of diametrically opposed forces for ratings. In reality, most citizens want the same things: a strong economy, safe streets, good roads, decent schools, opportunity, plus equal rights and protections. People want pragmatic governance and are averse to forced societal change, dogmatic ideologies, and regression.
The only folks spoiling for a fight or secession are lunatics and fringe thinkers. If we convince the media to take away their megaphones by ignoring them, a lot of rancor and perceived division would disappear overnight.
