We’re hitting a new bottom now, folks. The 2024 election is going to be memorable for one thing, I predict: and that is that it’s going to be an ugly free for all that will be remembered for a great many years to come — at least the GOP primary part of it. The general election is more predictable, presupposing it’s a rematch of Trump and Biden. But the actual getting there for the Republican party is going to be a blood bath.
Basically it’s predicted that if Trump wins in Iowa, New Hampshire and Florida that it’s game over. Trump’s bringing on the heavy artillery right now, in the form of Dirty Trickster Roger Stone, to obliterate DeSantis just ahead of the Iowa caucus in January. DeSantis has put all his eggs in the Iowa basket. He’s characterizing an Iowa win (which he’s done everything to court) as a new direction for the GOP where he is DeFuture. That’s his script and that’s his fantasy. He may in fact win Iowa, as Ted Cruz did, but he’s got no chance to win the GOP nomination. Now it’s getting time to face reality and things are getting ugly.
If you haven’t been scoping out Twit/X for the past half a day, the latest rave over there is that Roger Stone called Casey DeSantis a c***. That takes us down a few steps lower than when Trump was calling Heidi Cruz ugly, but it’s a predictable trajectory. There is no low they won’t go and we’re going to see the truth of that soon enough. Now here’s where the rumor mill starts cranking.
Ron won't say a thing either. Stone has the goods on Desantis.

Here’s the state of play: DeSantis is as silent as the tomb. That is not a good luck, not when your wife has been insulted and when somebody else is inferring an extra marital affair, not to mention this is a few weeks before the last GOP debate. Then there’s this idiot sounding off and I don’t know if it’s related but anything’s possible nowadays, right?
Rep. George Santos says in a Twitter space tonight that multiple members of Congress are busy cheating on their spouses but it’s not getting coverage bc reporters are more interested in his lying and alleged campaign finance fraud

I only drop that into this because my spidey sense says that Santos is going to be in need of money and something to do and Stone and Santos are totally a match made in Hell, so I, for one, won’t bat an eyelash if Santos ends up becoming a Trump/Stone ally and knifes DeSantis. And let’s face it: Santos only way of staying in politics would be if Trump gave him something to do in a second administration.
Now Casey is pulling negative attention all on her own, apart from the Stone comments about her character and Ron’s alleged dalliance.
Casey Desantis just gave a speech, saying the US economy is so bad she had to shop at Walmart for $2 tee-shirts. She is worth 7 million dollars, not including her husband's income as Florida Governor and his assets. I really hate rich people who do poor talk.

I’m surprised if Casey DeSantis is wroth $7 million. That’s quite a lot to have earned as a local TV anchor. I don’t know if that’s accurate. But whatever she’s worth, it is not credible at all that she’s forced to shop at Walmart. That’s simply insane. I can give Casey the key to shopping: hit the clearance racks at the best shops you can find. It’s amazing what you’ll find there. No need for Walmart.
And of course, the purpose of the comment was to trash Joe Biden and “inflation.” She probably knows how to shop as well as anybody.
And then this is a comical addition.
The first lesson, chapter 1, of Understanding MAGA 101 is that the things about Trump that repulse most people are exactly the things they love about him. They aren’t “defending” it. They are loving it. pic.twitter.com/E44Coo9GsG

The DeSantis campaign is in its final flameout and it’s going to be historical. I see all the elements.
I do love watching them eat their own. Soon Santos will be sitting in his cell scribbling out all the dirt he has scraped up from the hallways of Congress over the past year. We’ll have yet another tell-all land-fill edition just in time for the November election. Any thoughts on the title?
Why is Jenna Ellis sending out twits? Didn’t her mouth get her in enough trouble already?
This is just a shooting gallery as tRump and his buds take down the competition. No surprises here.
That tweet from Hugo Lowell discussing how George Santos is so upset that the media’s not covering all the members of Congress who are cheating on their spouse is so ridiculous. Maybe Mr Santos (or should that be Dame Santos? Missy Santos? “Boy George” Santos?) might want to recall that infidelity to one’s spouse is NOT considered a criminal action and that Mr Santos’s self-described sexuality is probably far more concerning to members of his own caucus. Trump, George’s idol, cheated on his wives (one of whom was pregnant during a rather salacious bit of cheating with a porn star) and it didn’t bother Trump’s rabid supporters.
But, when push comes to shove, a little bit of cheating on your spouse is hardly likely to upset even the most morally upright, pearl-clutching brigade the way that lying and campaign finance hanky-panky will upset them.
Sorry. I don’t bad clearance racks or discount stores because the aisles are tiny and people shove you out of the way and the selection usually sucks. Wal-Mart is good for tees and housewares– we are cash short and had no choice but to buy curtains (Amazon was twice the price). We need dressers,and bureaus because they got broken in the move or are too.large to.carry upstairs. And IKEA stuff costs too.much.
If Casey is shopping at Wal-Mart she is taking items that actual.poor people need. And I don’t believe for a moment she is telling the truth. On the other hand, when my husband worked there in Online Grocery Pickup, he encountered regular who were driving Mercedes, Jags, Porches ,and one arsewipe who drove a Ferrari.
