(13,616 posts)same thought we had in 2016 when everyone thought Jeb Bush would win. Let us not forget, Trumps appeals to violence and arrogance , which like it or not, sre two components are the national identity. As long as even DeSantis knows that Trump can summon an army of gunmen to wreck the election, he is not a strong candidate. Yes, Musk backs him, like he back Twitter, which means he can be a kiss of death.
PLEASE, lets not make the same mistake we did in 2016 thinking that polls mean that much. The wolf is still a threat until they day we know he is surely dead, and even then the kids are ready to keep the machine rolling.
NOTE to any feds : I am not calling for his death, merely a note that every time people have been safe assuming he runs out of gas, he seems to have another tank, ready to attack US.
