DeSantis drops out

[zzand]

He endorsed him because he wants the second seat in the election. After all the BS that Trump has thrown at him during the campaign that would be the only reason that he would endorse him. My vote at this point is still going to Haley.

[MWmetalhead]

It's now a two person race. He officially endorsed Trump, but the timing makes it a de facto Haley win. Haley needs to win on Tuesday or prepared to become the No Labels nominee on Wednesday.

So it goes. Now he can go back to Florida and let the Mouse kick his ass some more.

Haley is, and always has been, toast.

Trump is, and always has been, the nominee.

I'm not convinced Trump goes with DeSantis as VP.

[Mega Hertz]

I would put 10 on Stefanik, 5 on Haley and 1 on DeSantis.

My bets are on Vivek, Kristi Noem, or Tim Scott.

agree. My money is on Vivek as VP choice.

This is interesting

Americans for Prosperity, the conservative pressure group backed by the fortune of Charles and David Koch, is hedging its bet on Nikki Haley after Ron DeSantis’s withdrawal. In a memo, its political arm, AFP Action, reiterated its support for Haley and warned Republicans, “our polling consistently shows Donald Trump loses to Joe Biden in the states that will decide the election in November.” But the memo said the group was targeting House and Senate campaigns, too: “Winning any one of these three pillars of our strategy prevents One Party Progressive rule.”

If he goes with a woman I'd put 10 on Nancy Mace and 10 on Kristi Noam. Stefanik and Lake (shutter) are DOA, Daddy don't like chubbies or sun-dried jerky. Same goes for Huckleberry Sanders.

I hope we won't see VP choices of Margorie Taylor Green, Lauren Boebert, or Kari Lake. Would be terrifying. It would be the new axis of evil.

I think that would be helpful.

Trump is a lot of things but suicidal is not one of them.

I forgot about Noem. I thought she mentioned not wanting to be up for the job but I could be wrong.

Trump can't win and he shouldn't even be on the ballot.

[Round Six]

I got $5 on Trump's second term.

Either way, never underestimate the stupidity of the American people.

It's a sucker bet. Donald will win if it's him and Biden in November. We can lament and be passionate about the folly of that happening. And say that Trump's supporters are a bunch of rectal births.

But unless one of the two keels over, you have to be pragmatic. Trump's going back to Pennsylvania Avenue.
Having said that I do believe Anyone But Joe or Kamala has a very good chance of beating Trump.
