DeSantis in Iowa Warns of GOP ‘Culture of Losing' as Weather Sidelines Trump's Event in the State

[Kamaji]

Angst?
It's not angst.
Disgust, maybe...

Exactly.  Disgust at a childish, paranoid fool who, notwithstanding that he was once President, is compelled to do as much, if not more, damage to other republicans than the democrats have done so far. 

[Sighlass]

"Trumped Up" - Slanderous or libelous in nature.

The term seems to fit more than one meaning this election.

[Hoodat]

Perfect, @corbe

[corbe]

   I'm sticking around @Hoodat to witness the laments of the Trumper's Women and Children just as they witnessed the lament of mine in 16.

[Maj. Bill Martin]

????? Faint reading a tweet??  Seriously?  Such petty and false accusations @Right_in_Virginia   

Sometimes, you just need to give some folks the rope, and they'll do the rest.  It's not exactly like she's been converting a lot of folks to the cause.  More like the opposite.

Warning of a Republican “culture of losing,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sought Saturday to weaken former President Donald Trump's grip on the GOP as he courted voters in battleground Iowa.

15 minutes into counting votes,Trump-endorsed @DanielCameronAG has just won the primary and will be the Republican nominee for Governor in the great state of Kentucky.

DeSantis-endorsed Kelly Craft is currently in third place.

Absolutely embarrassing for team DeSantis.

Horrible night for Desantis

The billionaire he backed in the KY primary got destroyed by Trump’s pick & a Democrat won the mayoral race in Jacksonville

Cameron had orders of magnitude more name recognition here in Kentucky due to his vocal opposition to Beshear and his Democratic policies over the past years.  Endorsements had absolutely nothing to do with it.

Sure.

Trump's endorsement probably lost Bevin the election in 2019.

Here's another Trump-endorsed Kentucky politician:

   I was gonna add a Picture of Ronna but I couldn't pass this up.

[Polly Ticks]

Sure.   

Bless your heart.  Cameron has been very popular in this state for a long time. He fought tooth and nail against Beshear's ridiculous over-reaches in the name of covid, and Republican voters in the state appreciated it.

You stick to your state, and I'll stick to mine.

Nah.  That was all the teachers' union, which is apparently full of people who cannot do math.

[Maj. Bill Martin]

As best as I can tell, DeSantis' endorsement only happened yesterday, and in the form of robocalls last night.  It is quite likely that most Kentuckians disn't even know about it.

RiV could care less about our states.  It is all about Trumpy.  The Pu$$y grabber.

It was always alive in the primaries.  In the real election, notsomuch.

[Maj. Bill Martin]

It was always alive in the primaries.  In the real election, notsomuch.

Truth.  He's the single most prominent personal in the party with the largest bloc of supporters, so his support is almost always going to be determinative in primaries with more than two candidates.

That pretty.much reverses in the general elections.

Why would I waste my time trying to convert you?

I post for the guests and members who find themselves on these threads ---- to correct the rampant distortions and remind MAGA folks we've seen this movie before and we will prevail.

Well, DeSantis is 0 for 2 tonight.  One primary and one election for Mayor in Jacksonville, FL ---- turning a red office blue for the first time in a decade.

What does DeSantis have to do with the mayor's race in JAX or a primary three states away?  (See:  Association fallacy)

His coveted and public endorsement(s) of both.  (See: Blaming Trump for every loss in 2022)

So if someone endorses a candidate and that candidate does not win, then the endorser is a loser?  Is that your standard?  Asking for a friend.

Not my standard ---- it was the standard used to bash Trump in 2022 by every NT and by DeSantis, himself, for the same reason just a few days ago.

That the standard y'all set is being applied to Ronny is simply delicious poetic justice.
