Schedule when GOP Primaries & Caucuses start

My Predition: #RonDeSantis will win #Iowa but #DonaldTrump will win #NewHampshire & #SouthCarolina.

After January, I expect the field to narrow between #Trump, #DeSantis & #ChrisChristie (whose job is to take down Trump) & maybe #AsaHutchinson as most candidates will drop out as funding evaporates.

I expect #Republicans to nominate Trump again. However, if the #GOP pick DeSantis…😱🤯!

@darnell The will not pick . The wants him to win but the people do not like him. He has been sinking in the polls...

@realcaseyrollins I agree. #DeSantis lacks a like-able personality in public—or should I say a lack of Charisma (something even #Trump has, albeit the orange conman uses it for evil).

@darnell I'd say that does have charisma, but his charisma is more of that of a showman, and less that of a president. He pulled it off, and sometimes that charisma was even good (his issuing spur-of-the-moment condolences to is one of the highlights of his presidency IMHO), but overall it's cut-rate at best, and far from impressive.

There aren't tons of candidates who stand out on that front though, although seems like such a natural that he reminds me of (although, even though I didn't like him as president, I still think he had the best charisma of any president, at least as long as I've been alive)

You missed Reagan. Crazy charisma. GWB had decent charisma as well, much more than his father. I didn’t care for Bill Clinton but he had it too.
One of the things that impressed me about Nixon was that he wasn’t very charismatic but won twice. Even though he did lose to Kennedy earlier.
Trump has charisma but he didn’t need much to run against Hillary who, in my opinion, has the lowest charismatic score of any candidate in 60 years. If it’s possible to have negative charisma, she has it.
