    DALLAS -- Former Presidentv Donald Trump easily won the 2024 GOP presidential nomination poll at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) gathering this weekend in Texas.

    Trump, who’s repeatedly flirted with making another presidential run in 2024 to try and return to the White House, captured 70% of ballots cast in the anonymous straw poll, according to results announced by CPAC on Sunday afternoon.

    That's a boost from the 55% support he won in the hypothetical 2024 Republican primary matchup straw poll at CPAC Orlando in late February.

    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis came in a distant second, at 21%. No one else among the 19 potential 2024 Republican White House contenders topped 1%.

    OK, so that's that, and should Trump wanted to run again, he'll probably will easily win nomination. Will he run? Democrats will undoubtedly publicly encourage Trump to run, cheering, run Donny, run.

    Deep inside, most of them are now saying, oh... **** I'm sure of that :hiding:

    Me? I'll vote for Trump again, in a heartbeat.

    And then next week you will pretend that the entre GOP is not still under the control of Trump and accuse Dems of not being able to move on.

    Next time can we run a real conservative who does not get sandbagged by his own appointees, does not spend money like a drunken sailor, and who will actually stop illegal immigration. And I have to add, someone who would maintain the dignity of the office which means not using Twitter -- a vulgar form of communication for the "unwashed."

    I pretend nothing and your conclusions are all wrong. Trump did not chain GOP to himself and GOP is free to run any candidate they wish. Straw poll had 19 choices to vote for, and the results are amazing.

    *shrug If you know of any such candidate with anything more than marginal chances to win the White House, I'll vote for him.

    Today, that's Trump and the straw poll confirms it.

    Judging by the straw poll, don’t think so. So, Trump we’ll run.

    There is a first time for everything I guess and this may be the first post of yours that I have to like.

    I hope Trump does not run in 2024. He will be too old. By then we will have had our fill with a geezer in the white house.

    Trump will hold a lot of power and sway and Don Jr might decide to run but I cannot see voting for a 78 year old Trump.

    It is shallow and lame to call something a cult just because you disagree with it.

    You do not find the devotion to Trump even just a little cult like?

    I mean at the last CPAC they built a golden statue of Trump, that is pretty darn cult like.

    I call the actions I see cult like — there are many things I dislike and very few I refer to as being a cult.

    I cannot help it segments of your party look and act like a cult. It happens with Democrats too, sure, but not to the level intensity or visibility.

    It is shallow and lame to be blind to what is going on around you because it is your political team doing it.

    A cult like teaching preschoolers a made Obama song that type of cult? or getting a rodeo clown fired because he wore an Obama mask in his performance something he has done with ever president since he started the act that type of cult?
