Turning Point USA Presidential Poll

[Perd Hapley]

One downside of Trump2024 is that we won't have an incumbent in 2028.

I think if DeSantis got the R nod, all the Trumpers would support him enthusiastically.

Only if Trump refrains from turning his diehard supporters against DeSantis, the way he did with all his challengers 6 years ago.

This is my belief as well. At least from what I know about him, I like him. I'm not sure there are any other R candidates worth my vote at this time. My opinions all might change in early 2024 though. 

To French's point, I would be inclined to vote for Gabbard over somebody like Jeb Bush (please clap). Or also just sit it out.

I like some of her positions but I can’t vote for Tulsi until she gets fully redpilled plus anyone even remotely identifiable with by the majority of Americans gets brutally crushed by the Dems. She doesn’t hate the flyover people and that’s why they ran her out.

Tulsi Gabbard wants to ban "assault weapons."

Thought this was interesting.

I keep saying the Tea Party was the polite request, Trump was the less polite request, it does not get more polite from here. Why do I say this? Because I have the brains God gave a rock and I do not live in the Eternal Now. Insult people enough and they will only loathe you.

Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney, Marco Rubio, et. al. would all sign an assault weapons ban "if it made it to their desk". Every "moderate Republican" would. It's only the domestic terrorist extremists like Cruz, DeSantis, and Huckabee that wouldn't.

The Bushes, Romney and Rubio suck also.

Tulsi was an assault weapon ban cosponsor.  That's appalling.  I find the crush some gun owners have on this gun banning woman bizarre.

Always important to remember that while Tulsi might not be a crazy commie leftist like some of them, she is still a Democrat and solidly in the liberal camp.  She is probably even crazy leftist in other ways.

No one here has a crush on her. She's simply more conservative / libertarian than around half the current crop of Republicans. I wouldn't vote for her over DeSantis, or even Trump. Over Jeb Bush? As I said earlier, her or sitting 2024 out is preferable to me.

This.  Having heard her opinions on issues while she was still a part of politics in Hawaii, I detested her elitist attitude towards us mere civilians owning AR's. She played the veteran credibility card a lot.

One of the major issues I have with her.

[HankB]

I'd have a hard time voting for Tulsi unless she were running against a truly despicable imitation "R" like Adam Kinzinger or Liz Cheney,  but she does seem to be one of the few rational Democrats that are left. I think she and I could remain civil in a 1-on-1 discussion where we disagreed with each other on many issues.

[Pb]

Loads of guys on AR15.com (of all places) love her some weird reason.   

[cordex]

I believe Tulsi loves her country, even if I disagree with her on an awful lot.

That is getting to be more and more rare.

[dogmush]

I'm not sure how much Democrat is left in Tulsi, but we shall see.  As many have said I have issues with so e of her policies. Not surprising as I think Hawaii is pretty far up the list of shitty state .govs.

It's worth remembering though, Trump actually did some BS anti-gun stuff, and started the "I'll just have ATF change a definition if I want to ban something " crap that they are flexing with the 80%s and Brace rules right now. He's only pro 2A when he needs votes.

[Pb]

True.  Except for his supreme court picks, Trump was mediocre to poor on guns.

And, amazingly enough, that made him better than average for Republican Presidents.

Please, not Buddha Judge. Even if he loses the election, I can't take another year of listening to that fraud delivering lectures on how to be a perfect Christian.

Not all of them.
Much like Trump himself, some of them will never move on from the 2020 election and refuse to vote for anyone else out of principle.
Hopefully they are a very small group.
