What Is the DeSantis Strategy?
Kurt Schlichter


The answer is, “How the hell would I know?” – the governor runs the tightest ship in the business, and not only do his peeps not leak, but you’ll never catch him lying on top of his covers in a robe, hair in curlers and kicking his painted toenails with the telephone receiver up to his ear calling up Maggie Haberman and asking “Whatchya doin’?”

But the fact that Team Heavy D is not out there briefing the world on its strategy does not mean he doesn’t have one. The Trump team wants you to think that the RDS campaign is in chaos because the guy who was president is in the lead, pretty substantially, over six months before the first vote gets cast. But then, if pre-election year polls were particularly predictive, we would have had President Jeb! And Merrick Garland now would be on SCOTUS explaining that free speech isn’t free and the right to keep and bear arms actually refer only to the kind of guns you pump at the gym instead of giving “Get Out of Jail Free” cards to the junkie kids of corrupt pols.

Trump’s strategy is crystal clear – inevitability with a dollop of “and that will show them.” How winning the primary only to lose another general election – recent polls showing the general race in the key battleground states are absolutely brutal to the former prezzy – remains unclear to those of us to whom winning involves victory instead of glorious defeat. But the inevitability thing is a potentially effective strategy – right now, Trump is the default guy for GOP voters who have yet to start paying attention. Republicans know Trump, and they like Trump – hell, most DeSantis people like Trump – so it’s no shock that they rallied to Trump in the wake of these disgraceful lawfare indictments. And the Democrats are ecstatic since Trump is the easiest candidate to take out in the general because about 53% of Americans hate him and will never vote for him. Some people even think the shameful Hunter Biden wrist-slap is partially designed to further rile the rubes into nominating Trump.

"@RaheemKassam has thoughts on why DeSantis keeps dropping in the polls: “Being anti-woke is just... the bottom rung of the ladder of conservatism. You don’t get to be celebrated because you’re not a communist and not a satanist.” (Video)

Desperation on the part of the fan-boi.  Too bad.

Ron DeSantis -  he is the governor who runs the tightest ship in the business, and his people do not leak information. He is done extremely well for Florida.  He is obviously a conservative, is  anti-wokeness, pro patriotism, and pro Constitution.

Ron DeSantis 2024 for President.

DeSantis' strategy appears to be to walk softly and carry a big stick.

Trump's strategy appears to be to run off at the mouth, insult everyone whom he will need to be his allies to get anything done, lie about what he accomplished and what he can accomplish in the future, and then blame it all on unproven election fraud when he loses the general election.

Buh buh, Trump's gonna do it this time! He's gonna drain that swamp, and spread MAGA everywhere! Whatever MAGA means he's all for the MAGA!

Believe in the MAGA! Be one with the MAGA!

Well, the way I see it, with Trump heading into an unknown legal abyss and likely jail time, DeSantis IS our hope.  In addition, he is a true conservative.

[massadvj]

Regardless of what his strategy is, if RDS does not win Iowa, the race will be unwinnable.  He may decide to keep going, but it would be futile because Trump is a known commodity and there will be no new information to change the momentum after the Iowa caucus. Iowa is "do or die" for DeSantis.

Then we'll just have to wait until 2028 to have any hope of having a non-liberal in the White House.

Why is Iowa so important? Do the cows vote?

Iowa won't be decisive if DeSantis wins there, but it will be if he loses.

It is important because it will be the first indicator to the rest of the country as to whether Trump can be defeated. If DeSantis loses, there will be no new tactics that he can try that will be decisive somewhere else.

If Trump loses, it can be blamed on the fact that Iowa often favors underdogs, and then it is on to NH.

Thanks for the thorough explanation.

Honestly, do you think this country can withstand another 4+ years of wokeness, liberalism, marxism and globalism??
