He didn't want to work without a net. 
One main thing that bothered me with RDS is that he spat upon the person who helped him when he needed it. He joined the people who didn’t offer him a hand.
I don’t admire that at all. He is young and he should have stayed MAGA and he would be the heir of those voters after Trump. He showed poor decision making skills by doing that.
I imagine that frosts a lot of people. Also having the law changed to remain Governor was cheesy. Shows a lack of seriousness regarding a Prez campaign.
Cheesy Spent Meatball.
Re: “heir”?
Not likely - everyone, from President Trump on down needs to explain their positions and earn those votes.
Actually, the fact that Ron chose to run at all, even with loudly voiced objections from some in the Party, is one of the reasons I liked him. I liked the boldness and the decisiveness.
This is America, where no republican should have to place all their faith in the antiquated tradition of ‘waiting your turn’. That didn’t work out very well for Bob Dole, and with Dole, everyone in the party knew from the very beginning that his campaign wouldn’t be any more than a dud.
. Dud = A person or thing that is ineffectual or a failure.
. Dud = A missile that fails to explode after being fired.
In national politics, you need to stake your claim on the future of this country and describe your place in that future. No republican has to limit their ambition to proverbially shining Donald Trump’s shoes or polishing another one of his rings.
Those don’t sound like expectations of a merit based society to me.
If Ron does not secure the nomination this go round, so be it, but it is his right to try. He owes it to no one to conceal his ambition.
