President Trump Alaska Rally

Certainly the billions in military equipment left in Afghanistan, the way America is now the laughing stock of the world, the empty store shelves, the all time high historic gasoline prices, the war on fossil fuels, the lost money in IRA's, the unconstitutional "mandates", the push for battery powered/electric EVERYTHING and the jobs lost in small business failures are an indication of our government's incompetence and careless attitude toward the average American.

At a time when our electric grid is vulnerable and stretched thin, Democrats are trying to force more people to use more electricity, coincidence?

Plenty of previously staunch Trump supporters and middle of the roaders on the web are saying they hope he doesn't run again and are leaning more towards DeSantis.

Trump doesn't like DeSantis because he sees him as a threat and now he's starting in on Musk which I think is very unwise.

He'd still get my vote but I also think he'd get a lot more, and wipe the floor with the Democrats, if he changed his focus.  He'd get so many more votes they wouldn't be able to cheat.

He needs to adopt a more moderate tone and focus on issues important to Americans, and he will run away with it  

I believe so. Especially prior to the mid terms.

He needs to massage a few lefties to swing to the right

You misunderstand the fact that I WANT Trump to win and the point is IF he actually focused on those issues, instead of throwing out barbs to people he feels threatened by to appease his ego,  he would wipe the floor with them.

This is what I mean by "Trump can do no wrong" because you don't agree that he needs a tune up and a different approach.

Robin Vos, the speaker of the Wisconsin State Assembly, said in a Tuesday interview that the former president called him last week and encouraged him to decertify Joe Biden's win in the state — 20 months after the 2020 election.

Trump took to Truth Social to air his grievances with Vos.

Again, so close to the mid terms, I think his focus is misplaced. He'd slaughter the Dems if he focused solely on the mess Biden has made and how he will MAGA!

He would.  Wipe the floor with them, I mean.  People don't need to hearing negative sound bites.  That is, unless they're about Biden & Dems, and, as you say, followed by solutions.  

This bit from the article...

Vos himself has peddled election conspiracy theories and baselessly claimed that voter fraud in his state influenced the 2020 election.

...sounds like Vos is (was?) a Trump supporter, and did explain that the Supreme Court decision could NOT be applied retroactively.  

Trump is a very intelligent man.  His actions somewhat make me wonder what he's up to.  It could very well be that he doesn't want to give away his ideas yet.  

I would not call him intelligent.
Tenacious, yes.
