Ron DeSantis Drops to Fifth Place in Latest New Hampshire Polling

Representative Victoria Spartz (R-IN) is Ukranian by heritage, and understandably she is a full supporter of Ukraine (and NATO) in the battle against Russia.  That said, what Ms Spartz notes in her comments and questioning of Attorney General Merrick Garland is very accurate.

Representative Spartz puts the context of the citizen fear of the soviet era KGB into the context of American fear of the weaponized DOJ.  “People are scared of our government,” she outlines.  The comparison is accurate in context and history.  However, as Spartz goes on to share, the end result is horrible for Ukraine, as the constituents in her community will no longer trust the word of the American government.  WATCH:

Ron DeSantis Drops to Fifth Place in Latest New Hampshire Polling


Posted originally on the CTH on September 20, 2023 | Sundance 

One week ago, a poll of South Carolina voters showed that Ron DeSantis had dropped to fourth place with only 9% support, far behind President Trump at 46% {LINK}. Today a poll out of New Hampshire shows DeSantis dropping to fifth place with 10% support. {LINK}  To give some scale to the collapse, this represents a drop of more than 75% of DeSantis’ original support since mid-January of this year. [From 43% to 10%]

The New Hampshire University Poll [SEE DATA HERE] also shows, while he doesn’t carry much support, the very specific demographics of DeSantis supporters are old, rich, white men who listen to Buck Sexton on the radio. This demographic pattern repeats in just about every poll; it’s quite remarkable.  I will admit to finding it funny, when the predictions from a year ago show up with such clarity.

[Data Source]

New Hampshire – Thirty-nine percent of likely primary voters’ support Trump, followed by entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy (13%), former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley (12%), former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie (11%), and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (10%). Six percent support South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, 2% support former Vice President Mike Pence, and 1% or less support North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum (1%), former Texas Congressman Will Hurd (1%), former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson (<1%), or talk show host Larry Elder (<1%). Less than 1% support another candidate while 6% are unsure whom they would support. (more)

Donors Retreat from DeSantis, Advance Toward Trump

The Sea Island group must have a very difficult time accepting that all of the efforts to advance with Ron DeSantis are not succeeding.  They are going through the five stages of grief, with each starting to accept their ability to influence election outcomes has collapsed in the face of unrelenting support for President Donald Trump.

As the DeSantis operation enters the desperation phase, familiar to those who remember the moments in 2016 when Cheeeto-faced Glenn Beck was pleading with the evangelical community to support Ted Cruz, we see the purchased influencer crowd becoming more toxic, hate filled and vitriolic.  Alas, their angst is as shallow as their principles.  The reality is their bank accounts dictate their constitutional values. It’s all very pathetic and predictable.

On the opposite side, those who don’t play the pretending game; those who carry the pragmatic working class values that find optimal solutions to challenges; that tribe of deliberate and steadfast honest warriors; that group continues to push forward, supporting President Trump.  It is an unrelenting force of MAGA, strengthened by the adversity of opposition, tested in the battlespace grit and determination, that team is winning.  Be of good cheer.

When we first saw the primary elements of their attack approach we said, the new sons and daughters of this American revolution are going to look completely different.  The Green Dragon Tavern may be a church, a lunchroom, a picnic table or a tailgate.  The assembly of the like-minded is not focused on the labels of the assembled, we just don’t have time for that.  The MAGA mission is the purpose… The fight is wherever it surfaces…. Delicate sensibilities must be dispatched like a feather in a hurricane, and relentless we push forward.

As we share in a reminder every morning, “This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.” I can assure you of only this, if we do not stand victorious it will not be because Donald J Trump left anything on the battlefield.

2024 is MAGA burning the ships behind us.  This one is for all the marbles. This is not a place where tepid half-measures and gentlemanly pastels will suffice.  Get right with God, put on the armor, absorb the focus of fighting like the third monkey on the ramp to Noah’s ark, and get comfortable being uncomfortable. {Direct Rumble Link}

He can’t be stopped!!

DeSantis Drops to Fourth Place in South Carolina


Posted originally on the CTH on September 14, 2023 | Sundance 

It’s a Washington Post-Monmouth poll {DATA HERE} of South Carolina.  However, keep in mind that Ron DeSantis has spent a lot of time in the Palmetto State and was very confident of his ability there.

The poll found that 46 percent of potential Republican primary voters in South Carolina support President Trump while the state’s former governor, Nikki Haley, stands in second place at 18 percent. Ten percent support Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) and 9 percent back Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. {media report}

[Source DATA]

The split approach appears to be working. However, the recipient of the split is collapsing.

Abandon hope all ye conniving GOP who choose to challenge MAGA.  We The People are in charge now.  We want a reckoning.

Donald Trump isn’t just our candidate, he’s our murder weapon – and the GOP is our target. We good now?

THE TELL – DeSantis Shows His Small Minded Controlled GOPe Status During CBS Interview


Posted originally on the CTH on September 13, 2023 | Sundance 

This is a good one to bookmark for future reference.  I have asserted confidently that Ron DeSantis is an empty vessel who carries the thoughts and opinions of others as his own.  If you follow him closely you will see key moments when this is visible, one of them happened today.

In this CBS interview with Nora O’Donnell (a deep state DOS narrative engineer), notice the framework of the first question that triggers the downstream consequence of nonsense.  This is what happens when narrative engineers are working on points that are based entirely around cognitive dissonance.

The first question frames the subject matter:

“If Putin gives the North Korean’s advanced nuclear technologies, how would you respond to that threat?”

Now, think about this carefully, using your non-pretending intellectually honest brain.

North Korea is, and has long been, a proxy province of China.  No one of any reasonable intellect would disagree with that statement.  However, Russia needs to be framed as the current danger to our national interests.  The question itself is ridiculous.   Russia giving “advanced nuclear technologies?”  How about the decades of advanced nuclear technologies that are part of the free flow between Beijing and Pyongyang?  China has already given North Korea advanced nuclear technologies.

Arguably, and with mountains of circumstantial evidence to back up the assertion, China is in full control of the North Korean nuclear weapons systems. If there’s one level of military assistance that North Korea doesn’t need, it’s anything around their nuclear weapon systems.  Yet, notice how DeSantis just takes the narrative as presented, and then runs with it going even further as the follow-up questions are posed.

DeSantis goes on to say he would preemptively strike North Korea if he thought their nuclear capabilities were realized.  That is just buckets of geopolitical nonsense, that only comes from the mind of a man who has no intellectual honesty to understand or articulate the nature of the real relationship between China and their proxy province.

The whole interview goes downhill from that point, with DeSantis even pretending the USA does not currently conduct military operations inside Mexico – which we do.  As Mexican President AMLO has frequently outlined, albeit with increased recent emphasis, the Defense Dept and CIA are consistently operating cross-border incursions into Mexico as part of a network relationship with the cartel leaders.

This level of pretending might suit the professional political class, but in reality, there are too many people now fully aware of what the truth is.  Ron DeSantis is framing a foreign policy in direct alignment with the Bush, Cheney, Deep State worldview.

Also notice that Nora O’Donnell does not touch the Ukraine issue, the #1 foreign policy point that is slowly bringing a frustrated America to boil.  That omission is not accidental.

Nikki Haley Positioned to Replace Ron DeSantis


Posted originally on the CTH on September 12, 2023 | Sundance 

The DeSantis campaign is imploding.  The most recent admission from the team managing DeSantis was their shifted goalposts for a second place in Iowa.  Additionally, there is now friction between Ron DeSantis and Jeff Roe (head of Never Back Down PAC), if the inside campaign leakers are to be believed.

There is an element of total understanding to the frustration about the bitter pill DeSantis is being forced to swallow.  I mean, think about it, the management of Ron DeSantis didn’t just posit the 2024 campaign in the last year, this has been a long thought-out strategy going back much further.  In retrospect, the DeSantis ’24 operation tracks to sometime in 2018; at least that’s when DeSantis had to give some formal nod of willingness.

Now, Ron DeSantis has to watch as Nikki Haley is shifted into his lane by the professional apparatus that controls the lane alignments.  Ron can’t win, that is transparently obvious, and he is now being bumped down in priority as the financial control people start to push Nikki Haley.  Seeing this must be driving Ms. Casey bananas.

CNN ran a puff piece on Nikki Haley recently, along with a poll showing that only she could defeat Joe Biden.

Before laughing, it’s wise to remember what CNN represents in the game of political media.  CNN is the official state media of the U.S. State Dept.  Nikki Haley was former UN ambassador and aligns with the worldview of the CNN control room and executive offices.

Haley is an empty vessel.  She has no true positions of her own and uses the headlines and sentiment of the moment to determine her outlooks.  This is why she previously said she would not run against Donald Trump, and said Bubba Wallace was a victim of horrible NASCAR racism.  These might sound disconnected but remember, at the time each statement was made – these were shallow public opinion constructs, not core beliefs.  Nikki Haley has no core values; she is a consultant’s dream candidate who will morph to the positions of the handlers.

ABC is now coming out with another puff piece to support Haley, in a boost to the narrative started by CNN.

[…] A FiveThirtyEight/Washington Post/Ipsos survey of likely Republican voters, taken before and after the primary debate, also showed Haley gaining ground: She was ranked as doing the third best, behind only Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and businessman Vivek Ramaswamy — but fewer people also said she did the worst.

“What you saw on the debate stage is what I’ve done my entire life: I speak hard truths,” Haley said afterward during a Parents for Nikki Town Hall in Manchester, New Hampshire. (more)

“Hard Truth” Example 

I’m not sure how far the professional political class will try to push Haley, but it will fail miserably – perhaps even worse than DeSantis, although that is quite a downward slope to exceed.  Nikki Haley, more akin to Mitt Romney in a skirt, is perhaps the least authentic person in the campaign, next to Ron DeSantis.

I’m not going to go too deep on this effort yet, because quite frankly I have written so much about Nikki Haley and what should be expected, that I just end up repeating myself.  However, I’m going to link to two previous articles below that I would suggest you re-review.  One was written FIVE YEARS AGO, predicting this 2024 moment, the other was written four years ago as a supplement and follow up.

If there was ever an easy candidate to predict, that would be Nikki Haley.   Read the prior articles and you will see exactly what I mean.

[This written in 2018] – [This written in 2019]

Everything outlined in those articles, much of which was predicting this exact moment, is surfacing right now.

The Big Club and Bush group support Nikki Haley, that’s why we are seeing generous support from ABC and CNN.  Yes, it really is that simple.
