BacktoCricaddict Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Speaking at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, Trump said he was launching his third presidential campaign. Trump told his supporters: "In order to make America great and glorious again I am tonight announcing my candidacy for president of the United States." https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-magaga-presidential-announcement-maga-mocked-1759941 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevada Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I think he is done. This run looks like personal vendetta for the 2020 loss and Americans typically don't like it. This is why Al Gore and Hillary didn't run after losing the election. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, it may also be a ruse to keep the law at bay. I've read a few articles (e.g., https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-drawn-to-2024-run-because-of-presidential-immunity-report-2022-7?op=1) that speculate that being a Pres candidate might give him some kind of immunity from being prosecuted. I am not an expert in these matters and can't tell whether this is just journalistic bluster, so take it all with a grain of salt. sandeep 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"personal vendetta"? more like personal survival. His only hope to avoid prosecution for multiple crimes is political success or at a minimum 'relevancy'. So that his 'appeals' and legal defense have to be taken more seriously, more slowly until his inevitable death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem for US is that he's essentially burning down the republican party by splitting it and empowering nutjobs within it. The unintended consequence is that the left are going to get much stronger, much faster and get a freer policy hand. This inevitably will lead to bad financial decisions over the medium term. Woko Haram will become a bigger problem in the US. coffee_rules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravishingravi Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Boy from Navi Mumbai very angry that Trump is running again. Had to remind him that he is not getting water for half a day, electricity prices are up and ongoing dispute with builder. Trump can wait.

Trump got a good enough count of votes in 2020 despite his tantrums, controversies and the pandemic. Extending the above thought, the woke brigade is by definition vocal but isn't as populous. The Bernie or bust side led to the Trump victory by sitting out in 2016 presidential election but they couldn't get a further left candidate to the presidency in 2020 either than the centre left Biden.

I don’t want him to come back because he is too much of distraction and disruption. But quite honestly for me, he has challenged the conventions of what I used to think rational scientific minds who can make optimum decisions. He showed that basic baniya common sense can “trump” all elite school education. Especially on NATO, China, WTO and Middle East. But he has no self control.

coffee_rules Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 (edited) No sitting on the fence this time. He has ruined whatever narrative he’s built . After the Jan 6th event lost all credibility to run again. We are screwed by either party. Voted Republican to Congress here and he won in our district as Dems raise taxes. But will do Nota when it comes to President Edited November 19, 2022 by coffee_rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G_B_ Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 I feel if Ron Desantis is selected then Dems will replace Biden... Looking at 2024, Dems are defending a lot of Senate seats.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be the popular leader for now Yes popular to take on liberal agenda. Trump is wary of him now that he won a landslide in FL. Appears to be level headed and worked during Hurricane Ian and got popular. Also , a Covid crazy state where he ran against vaccine and mask mandates. At least he doesn’t mouth off like the orange head. He is waiting for Trump to run himself out of the race by talking (he calls Ron Desanctimonius ) . Don’t know much of his stance on Climate, but he is catholic and pro-life and anti-abortion. All ticks for conservative evangelical voters of America!

gattaca Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 (edited) One thing we will miss with trump is his international politics he understood it. Didn’t mess with it. Ukraine and Pakistan are prime examples. He cutoff funding for Pakistan after attacks on American soilders. Even with article 370 he supported india.
