Exactly

Trump thinks he's entitled, and truth be known he'll bolt 3rd party if he is denied the nomination. 

I know that's speculation, but based on history and narcissistic mindset, what would lead us to think otherwise?

If you stop "early voting" and mandate photo ID for 2024, Donald Trump could run as 3rd Party Independent and win in a rout.

YOU know it!  I know it!

Don't understand why nobody is talking about it [bold] now.


Early voting and mail-in voting aren't going away. Deal with it.

Well at least we won't have to watch him make a circus out of the debates.

So no debates, I guess it's already been decided that it will be Brandon v. Trump.  I'll refrain from voting.  First time that I won't be voting since I've been eligible to vote.  Sad.

No way are they going to let Trump into the oval office. So, 4 more years of globalist, marxist, DEM rule.  Our Republic won't survive.


You can still vote downticket. I will probably be voting for Republican candidates  downticket because we do need to have a buffer against Brandon’s disastrous second term policies.

Clinton won a second term in 1996, but Republicans also made gains. So Brandon’s reelection does not necessarily mean a bad night for Republicans on down ticket races

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Vote downticket for the other offices.

For a supposed tough guy who is ready to take on the swamp and the left on day one, he’s kind of being a little bit of a snowflake here

He’s worried that moderators might be too mean to him? Lol

If he can’t handle moderators that might be hostile to him, where does he think the so-called swamp is just gonna bend over and grab their ankles  for him?

   I suppose he's gonna hold Fundraisers for the Vets like he did in the second GOP debate of 16. 
   How much of the $$$$ he raised actually got to the organizations?
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

Well...I guess he's annoyed because they didn't get his permission, lol.

But if anyone believes that if there are debates....and he will be a no show...think again. There is no way he will pass up the opportunity to have a national stage to bash his opponents and give them "cute" names.

Interesting.  Should DeSantis decide to run Trump has already made it clear that there will be no debates.  IMHO he is afraid to debate DeSantis.

Good riddance.  The qualified candidates will gain exposure, while Trump holds one of his Jonestown rallies in BFE.

If he can't handle moderators, does he think he going to take on Xi or Putin (if he is still alive)?

Former President Donald Trump signaled to his fellow Republicans he is not interested in participating in the 2024 primary debates, at least as far as they’ve been planned to date.

The presumptive frontrunner took to social media to complain that “nobody got my approval, or the approval of the Trump Campaign, before announcing” the debates. Two events have been announced thus far, the first on Fox News and another at the Reagan Library in Simi, California.
==============================================================================

Guess he doesn't care to share or debate the details of his Freedom Cities and Jetson Cars with conservative voters.    Strategy worked for Biden, heyyyyyy why not!!!!!.    :silly:


of course he wont be in any debates the number of references to his felonies would take HOURS to recount..

Don't understand why nobody is talking about it [bold] now.

He'd be lucky to win 5 states.  Might be zero, although he'd have a good shot at West Virginia.

If they actually debated, I might care about this more.
Nowadays, it is the MSM trying to find the "gotcha" moments, and the candidates trying to get sound bytes for commercials.

I think the general election debates are pretty terrible because of the left-wing bias.   But the primary debates were a bit better.  However, Biden's mental degeneration is so bad now that I think any debates would hurt him.

But by refusing to have primary debates, Trump has handed Biden a ready made excuse to deny any general election debates.

This article is a bit dated @DCPatriot but perhaps this will explain why it's nearly impossible for a 3rd party to get onto the ballot in all 50 states.  It would be no different for Trump.

Trump will probably take the same states he did in 2020

And, despite his false claims of Florida being a hellhole under conservative policies, Florida will still vote for him

I think nominees have been decided for us for a very long time and elections have likely been stolen as well.

He didn't say that either. You just made that up as well.

I responded to a specific supposition made by a poster.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
