But Trump doesn't attack others - such as Ramaswamy - who he recently praised. Just DeSantis.

And it isn't like DeSantis is polling anyplace close to him.

They need to unite and we just might have a chance of winning against these evil people in the White House. We're fighting against very anti-American people that have MSM, all the alphabet gov agencies and social media all on their side. They all unite and lie, cheat, etc to win against us. They get by with it and will do it again.

I just think it's going to take Trump and Desantis joining forces for us to have a chance of winning. I like Desantis's suggestion of going door to door harvesting votes. We have to fight just like the left does. We can't be nice. It's going to take the both of them to ban together and fight this evilness on the left.

They should unite together and just think of how many more votes they would get. If they really cared about the country, they'd put their egos aside and join forces. They used to support each other and I think they can again. I hope they decide to do this as it would be so beneficial to the country. I think it's our only chance.
I agree but will Trump subjugate his desires for the betterment of the nation and party is the question?

Not really, most are for or scared of him. Trump rules and he can undo Ronnie. Trump is a shrewd businessman, he will play dirty, you know this.

Trump will never work with anyone for whatever reason. Especially someone he thinks others like more than him.

Does it really matter if it is Desantis or Trump? We cannot have another 4 years of the mess that is Biden and the Lefty policies and Anti American schemes.



Trump is attacking Desantis because he sees him as the #1 competition to challenge him. I don't like it. I don't think any Conservative does. I also think it is too early for any of this. Why waste the money? There are forever Trumpers. There are Team Let's give Desantis a shot but in the end we need Biden GONE.

It was ALL fake, he wasn't going to do any such thing. Chris Christie confirmed it after the 2016 election, when the MAGAs were posting on Twitter how they couldn't wait for HRC to be hauled off to prison and locked up. Christie broke the news that was just campaign rhetoric. Even after that admission, the MAGA base still didn't believe it was all a con, and they still chanted all the taunts about HRC that the ex-P had used during the months leading up to the election. 8 years later, they still deny it.

For proof, just watch the short video of the inauguration day luncheon held on Jan 20, 2017, with the Clintons attending. Trump spoke about his admiration and respect for the Clintons (both of them) and told the crowd how honored he was they were attending the lunch. Then he asked the crowd to give them a standing ovation, which the crowd did. Does THAT sound like someone who's about to "lock her up?"

I remember Trump saying he didn't go after HRC because it wouldn't be good for the country, so maybe that's what he mentioned to Chris Christie before the election, so it doesn't mean it was a con if he had second thoughts about doing it. Trump's inauguration speech was criticized because he did not mention HRC. Don't forget, Trump used to be a Democrat, I'm sure he donated to the Clintion's campaigns and they even attended his wedding, and Trump owns property in Westchester County, NY not far from the Clinton's home.

I told the RNC I will not donate anymore unless the GOP sticks together like the Democrats do.

They need to team up together. DeSantis as the VEEP. Then in 4 years DeSantis will have his shot. They should do this early. Like now. I know you are suppose to wait until the convention but Trump is almost like an incumbent. If you are running for reelection you already have your VEEP now.

I agree

Trump should leave being a candidate, throw his support behind DeSantis, and then spend his time playing golf, taking care of his legal woes, and making appearances to support DeSantis

Yes, it makes a huge difference.

Christie was crystal clear about it -- Trump was *never* going to go after HRC, and it was said just like that. Christie wrote on Twitter it was all campaign rhetoric (to gain support and votes) and people misunderstood that. I don't know why it's so hard to accept the truth, but that's the truth.

There's what Trump said right up to the election, and then there's his words and his behaviors afterwards. He gave the Clintons a standing ovation and said how much he respected them and how thankful he was they attended the luncheon. The base still can't accept or believe that happened, but it did.
