I would trust seasoned pros more than Casey DeSantis, absolutely.
poo poo, I'd hire Roger Stone over Casey.

For sure, but I don't think they have a clue how to defeat Trump either, from the Republican side.

Beating him from the Democratic side is pretty straightforward in comparison.

Great article, and it does show how much of an idiot DeSantis is, BUT, running against Trump as a Republican has to be existentially difficult. Would you trust the "seasoned pros" to know how to do it? Does anyone know how to do it? He's such a unique phenomena I don't think there's an established plan you could follow.

Again, not to say Ron didn't gently caress everything up regardless.

I mean, Trump is directly insulting the Kochs, and thus their entire network of influence, and it seems to make no difference. What chance did Ron (or Haley) ever have, regardless of how well they ran their campaign?

They all miss why chuds love trump. It's because he's grimy as poo poo and owns it. Big ron making his weird O face flapping his arms with his kids is exactly why he lost.

i mean its because trumps a big loud dickhead jock who says dickhead things and yells slurs in traffic energy. Desantis is the dude who stalks a woman and then nails her cat to the door of her class room before he shoots it up and talks about how great gilded age race science was.

On paper Desantis should be a home run. The policies he's implemented in Florida make trump look like a softie. It just goes to show that it was never about policy at all just a total cult of personality.

I don’t think there’s a great path but at the same time refusing to say anything bad about him and trying to suck up while he freely trashes you probably doesn’t help.

lol NC politics suck so bad. like corrupt all the way down.

Trump’s ascent in national politics in 2016 had taken root in places like Chickasaw County, where the electorate had once supported Barack Obama with 60 percent of the vote. Trump flipped the largely rural county of 12,000 people, and by 2020 his support grew to 65 percent — cementing one of the biggest county-level political swings in the nation over the last decade.

that's every state. loving Bill Richardson was the Governor of New Mexico and stole a shitload of money on his way out on the RailRunner, a fairly succesful light rail project to connect the ABQ-SF metro areas, then got (officially posthumously) named on the Epstein list. Susanna Martinez was the Governor for 8 years and she's a Republican from Texas who moved to Las Cruces to be a prosecutor (start a political career that involved rejecting the recreational legalization of marijuana for 6 years while her husband owned shares in a medical grow who's marketshare would be threatened by rec legalization, also she had a wild party and tossed bottles out of a REAL FANCY hotel in santa fe one time). The former Republican Mayor of Albuquerque, also two terms, has a lasting legacy with the people of this city for tearing up Central Ave., the historic Route 66, to expand it and fix it for years. It was in bad shape. Except he approved a project, with the help of the city council, where they put a giant bus stop in the middle of central and a bus lane on either side of the bus stop in the middle of the now expanded but still 4 lane (bus lanes don't count) Central, made one of the busiest sections of town more dangerous, didn't tell anyone what the weird bus lights that only matter to the bus mean, and basically just doubled a bus route that was already serviced for like 4-5 miles. Rich Berry moved into a multimillion dollar mansion in Arizona as soon as his term was over. Oh also they spent a shitload of money (millions) on these new electric buses, bought them from a Chinese coachbuilder, and the ones that they felt comfortable putting on the street overheated their batteries within a couple hours because the route debuted in the middle of the summer. The route is now serviced by regular rear end buses driving in the middle of the road, and it has never recovered from the businesses that had to close to build that poo poo.

AT&T got told they could admin Sandia anymore after they got in trouble back in the day, a consortium of educational institutions now run Sandia because Lockheed got in trouble and can't run it anymore so now MIT is loving with people's PTO and poo poo.

Who even knows what goes on in chudland and the reservations, that's a lot of empty land and a lot of farmers and poo poo.

Every state is corrupt, it's just that the corruption has a unique flavor.

Covenant Eyes is rolling out a new ad campaign featuring its cartoon mascot "Colossal Man," a superhero who requires the aid of an accountability partner to overcome his pornography addiction despite his superhuman powers.

DeHaas pointed to statistics that indicate pornography is a problem even among those who might not typically be expected to struggle with it.

DeHaas noted that among the approximately 850 applicants for last year's Covenant Eyes' scholarship, which potentially offers $5,000 to full-time college students who use the software, the vast majority revealed in the first sentence of their essay that they were either addicted or profoundly struggling with pornography by the age of 12.
