      (upvoting your comment for “Vote” while disagreeing with “Yes”) VOTE, everybody

        I appreciate your integrity.

        I gotta say though - I don’t know how anyone could see it any other way after 2016.

        Republicans would vote for a plastic shopping bag if it ran against a Democrat.

        They’re childish people fighting an invisible enemy of “wokeness” and all these other bullshit buzzwords and culture wars.

        If Trump isn’t the nominee, they will vote for DeSantis. If DeSantis isn’t the nominee, they will vote for a plastic shopping bag with an “R” Sharpie’d onto it.

      I’m not so sure. Everyone is far enough behind trump that there I don’t think there’s a clear number 2. DeSantis might be in second place, but it’s so far behind he’s still with the rest of the pack. If trump suddenly wasn’t in the race, it would be an absolute slaughter as they all fought tooth and nail in the dirtiest way possible to be next. Though I agree no one should get complacent.

        Not meaning to be rude at all but - do you remember the 2016 election?

        These people will vote for anyone who is not a Democrat.

        They don’t care about policy, they don’t care about honesty, they don’t care about personality.

        All they want is to be able to say “we won!”

        They’ll polish that turd DeSantis right up in their minds and pull the lever for him.

        Make no mistake.

          Except you’re presuming DeSantis will win the primary if Trump isn’t in it. I fully agree, whatever turd refuses to be flushed during the primaries will be polished to a kissable shine. I just wouldn’t call the primaries for him unequivocally at this point.
