  3. Joe will do fine. He will be at his beach house that day. And will tell Fox reporters "check your facts, Jack" if they report on any protests. He has this type of thing down to a well orchestrated denial dance at this point.

    Hundreds of Biden administration employees plan to WALK OUT of their jobs next week in protest of his support for Israel in Hamas war after young White House staffers sent letters

    The Final Boss of all Iowa polling has been released and it is showing Trump with a big advantage.

    A couple of points: no one has won the Iowa caucuses by more than 12%. And in the larger primary season Trump is beginning a track to a historic run to a nomination for any party. Although previously a president, Trump is technically a non-incumbent, and is looking to win the nomination by historic margins.

  6. Uh oh for Ron.

    If he loses 2nd in Iowa, why would he even bother to campaign further in NH? He will probably just head out to SC. He cannot salvage NH. He cannot salvage SC either but whatevah. He is dead man walking if he comes in third in iowa. Be better to just go back to Florida. Maybe go to disneyland and relax a little.

    On the other hand, Mr. Trump is going to find a sudden need to campaign for real now in NH. Indian girl within striking distance of Trump there. Her path forward from there still sucks but beating Trump anywhere would not be good for his invincibility theme.

    I heard on CNN that Trump has started dissing Vivek to try to pick up some points from him. Could be but I would have to hear from some place other than CNN. They are all liars over there.

    Haley could take 2nd but I doubt that she is more than 1 or 2 points ahead in the real voting world versus the polls. If she is ahead at all. She is at least even.

    Careful with Haley. Up to half of her support is tracking from Dems and independents. That’s very fickle support.

    Trump’s only obstacle was DeSantis and he is crushed. We mustn’t be beyond surprise but I doubt it.

  8. I added my own cautionary note to my post while you be typing. They might be even. I doubt her four point polling lead out in the real world.

    However, in regard to your caution about some of her polling lead coming from dems and independents, i am not sure that is the case. I believe they polled likely republican caucus goers and only republicans can vote. If that is not right, then point that out.

    Ron DeSantis presented with award recognizing his many achievements.

    Ron DeSantis trolled with participation trophy ahead of Iowa caucuses: ‘Proud of you for trying’
    The incident occurred on Saturday after the Florida governor staged a town hall in Atlantic, Iowa

    Ron DeSantis was trolled in Iowa after being presented with a “participation trophy” ahead of the state caucuses on Monday.

    The incident occurred on Saturday after the Florida governor staged a town hall in Atlantic, Iowa. An unidentified man approached Mr DeSantis, holding a small award.

    “Governor DeSantis I want to present to you this participation trophy,” he said, prompting laughter from those gathered.

    “You’re probably not going to win the election but we’re proud of you for trying,” the man added, before declaring: “He’s special, he’s unique, and he’s our little snowflake.”


    Mr DeSantis did not take the gift and tried to laugh off the prank, telling the man: “I don’t do participation trophies, sorry buddy.”
