Some of trumps recent remarks are keeping me up at night again. The Israel situation was keeping me up a l little bit ago and now it's this dip shit again and his psychopath cronies

    Brandon wins with a comfortable lead over Desantis. I think the legal shit Donnie is in might actually prevent him from winning. The people yearn for brunch.

      Even if Trump somehow isn't the nominee, which absolutely isn't going to happen, Niki Haley is looking like number 2 after DeSantis has been conclusively shown to be a weird ass elf shoed wearing freak who has been flip flopping on culture war stuff.

      But trumps gonna be the nominee, even if he's in jail (literally 0% chance that happens) he'll still be the strongest republican candidate.

      I can't see Desantis winning nomination unless some genuinely earthshattering stuff happens in the Republican party where some state parties go rogue and put him on the ballot instead of Trump. Or weird stuff happens with electors going rogue like in 2016, like those democratic electors voting for Colin Powell, or the one vote for Ron Paul from Texas.

      And honestly, maybe at this point. I don't think Trump is truly well liked among the GOP ghouls, they just care about winning.

        I just picked desantis as the nearest competitor to trump but I suppose it could be nikki haley or whatever. I personally think they still need trumps energy but could be wrong. That's the shittiest part about all this. Nothing really matters despite who wins.

        edit: but if Trump wins I do think it signifies a more accelerated path towars fascism
