@FreeinTX trump is blowing smoke up a lot of asses right now, it will be interesting to see what happens when things get serious. I fully expect him to by lying to them as much as he was about building a wall.

@PopulistRight DeSantis showed himself unable to run a national level campaign, unfortunately.

@sickburnbro That poll is why DeSantis should have been the R-nominee - plus his other positions which are the conservative wish-list personified - and actual accomplishments on all those as Gov.
But, Rs who will answer the poll that way, will vote for Mr "Immigration in the LARGEST NUMBERS EVER" (SOTU speech 2019), because most people are idiots, who didn't follow Trump's policy-positions / reversals as POTUS.

@sickburnbro @PopulistRight Common Florida politico problem. That is one state where the strong GOPe institutional machinery can elevate mediocrities and fool them into thinking they have nationwide chops.

@TrevorGoodchild @PopulistRight I'm not totally convinced he is mediocre, but the problem is that right now being a "not-trump" means you're going to have a lot of very nasty people looking to ride on you.

@PopulistRight the problem is that conservative voters are used to being betrayed so they expect it.

@sickburnbro I didn't see any evidence that "how he ran the campaign" was relevant. I did see the MSM run the Trump Trial-Show - basically a re-run of the Fake Russiagate Smokescreen - to fool the R-sheeple into "rallying around dear leader," to spite his horrible record of total-betrayal + Plandemocide. As a bonus, for the left-sheeple, "See - Orange Man really, really bad!!!"
DeSantis was literally the only right-policy candidate in the race. Of course, I know he sucked up to Jews - but they didn't like how he opposed their immigration-poison, and shut down their LGBTPedo child-indoctrination. I'll take policy over rhetoric any day.

@sickburnbro @TrevorGoodchild @PopulistRight I think he's a good governor and an able administrator. I don't think he has the charisma needed for national office.

@Seattle_Guy @sickburnbro @PopulistRight I'm not a fan of Zion Ron for obvious reasons but there are certain stipulations I will make:
>he learns from mistakes on a statewide level (like almost losing a gubernatorial election to a meth-addicted niggerfaggot)
>he goes out of his way to punish enemies (Disney)
>he is a competent administrator (unlike fat orange retard)
All of these are positive traits

@TrevorGoodchild @Seattle_Guy @PopulistRight punishing enemies is key

@Jewpacabra @BarelyEagle @TrevorGoodchild @Seattle_Guy @PopulistRight him being an egomaniac is what I'm banking on

@TrevorGoodchild @sickburnbro @Seattle_Guy @PopulistRight There are two personality types that do well at high levels - managers and entrepreneurs. Ron is a manager, Don is neither.

@BarelyEagle @TrevorGoodchild @sickburnbro @Seattle_Guy @PopulistRight Don is an icon and a showpiece which allows him some leeway in paving his own way, but unfortunately he’s an egomaniac who wants to be loved by scum. Ron is a manager, a delegator even, and delegators/managers always answer to a force higher than themselves and lift their hands when it comes back to bite them in the ass, which I think was evidenced by his anti-BDS move.

@sickburnbro @Seattle_Guy @PopulistRight Tangerine obese blowhard needs to write this down 1000x or so until it sticks.
He will never do so

@Sulla_Felix He has no ability to inspire loyalty despite insisting upon it. It's like respect. You literally can't demand it, you have to command it instead

@TrevorGoodchild @Sulla_Felix speaking of reciprocal loyalty, that is bog_beef's big thing.

@BarelyEagle @sickburnbro @Seattle_Guy @PopulistRight He's a talker and a carnival barker. Not an administrator. In business you can just hire someone competent (if you have the scratch) and trust them to be loyal to you for the paycheck and perquisites
Politics is an entirely different game. People will tell you what you want to hear and suck up to you just to get that precious chance to shiv you when you most need their help. Bad Vlad came into office knowing this. That's why he brought his "judo club" along. Fat orange retard had no such crew and could never build one (he displays zero loyalty to underlings)

@TrevorGoodchild @BarelyEagle @sickburnbro @Seattle_Guy @PopulistRight Yeah. I would say his most critical failing is his lack of loyalty. Merchants think everything is subject to contract, but real life requires reciprocal duties & rights. And we saw that in 2020, when there was exactly nobody willing to stick his neck out for Trump, except grifters and psychos (and the stupidly trusting (sad)).

@TrevorGoodchild @Sulla_Felix But here's what I think is wild: the GOP by dent of what it is as an institution ( for mopping up liberalism's mistakes ) - is unable to generate loyalty.
It it is most obvious with the abused voters, but the top level people are all loyal to democrats, and this also explains why there are so many faggots in the middle section.

@TrevorGoodchild @Sulla_Felix I think many modern people cannot read "you have to command it" properly, as well.
It makes me think of "master and commander" and how "master" is now a unintelligible world.
