Bias also plays a part. Reporters' and editors' bias allows them to think that DeSantis and Abbott are doing this because of racism but Adams is doing it because of actual need (NYC doesn't have the capacity). That bias allows them to make logical leaps not supported by the data.

Re: 2024 Primary
It will be interesting to see if Republican primary voters have grown tired of boorish behavior.

Re: 2024 Primary
Someone needs to let poor Emma know that DeSantis hasn't thrown his hat into the ring yet. Anyone with the political sense of an overcooked baked potato knows not to engage silly shit like this until your are on the campaign trail.
Besides, I don't believe anyone who matters really cares too much about the opinion of a hard core leftist as to who has "it" in the Conk party.
BTW, DeSantis is beating Trump by 13 points as of today.

Re: 2024 Primary
Anecdotal but from what I'm hearing from people I know they are growing tired of Trump. They want to win more than anything. If DeSantis can show he is Trump policy without Trump personality he can win.

Re: 2024 Primary
I think that's true, but that there is a lag time until that feeling filters down to the part of the base that everyone is afraid - you'd think that there is so much time politically-speaking until the election that the souring on Trump will have plenty of time to ferment

Re: 2024 Primary
Head to head. Deantis +13, but only +3 among ‘Strong Republicans’ who are the most likely primary voters. Another new poll has Desantis beating Trump by 4 in a head to head. So Desantis favored now if just head to head. But same poll with Deantis +4 head to head has Trump winning if Haley joins the field (and I would imagine that would be the case for other conks, too, who would take more from Desantis than Trump).Baldy wrote: ↑Thu Feb 09, 2023 1:43 pmSomeone needs to let poor Emma know that DeSantis hasn't thrown his hat into the ring yet.

The 2 polls have Trump at 40-41% head to head or not, and its going to be a little higher among likely primary voters. Desantis might need a cleared field relatively early on in the primaries to win.

So my question to you is: Should the donks repeat their tactic of supporting the wackadoodles in the Republican primary to keep things interesting?

Re: 2024 Primary
But will Trump's base care about that? He's had 7+ years of propaganda to build his cult. They aren't going to peel off easily. Heck, three of them in Pennsylvania killed themselves last week because they can't stand living in a country that Trump isn't President.Baldy wrote: ↑Thu Feb 09, 2023 4:38 pmFollow the money because the big donors are leaving Trump like rats off a sinking ship.
