DeSantis/Rubio
Vance is a good man, articulate and is great at promoting Trump’s agenda but I don’t see any deep core in him. I don’t feel leader from him.
Marco Rubio is showing us here in Florida the Tea Party favorite that propelled him to the Senate. Then he fell in with the Amnesty crowd. Has he redeemed himself? Not in my book. Let him stay at State if he wants it. Besides not an NBC.
Rule of politicians: All politicians are scoundrels unless proven otherwise. When proven, they must make regular installments of proof. When this fails, never trust them.
JD won’t get my support until he accomplishes something beyond giving interviews and speeches. BHO was good at those, too. The most accomplished political executive ATM, in my book, is Ron.
Stephen A Smith? Meh
The Hill? Meh
2028 presidential candidates? Meh
I don’t get why anyone cares what Stephen A Smith thinks. He is just a loud mouth. Nothing more
Stephen Smith’s opinion aside. Who would make the best MAGA candidate, Rubio or Vance? Your reason?
Stephen Miller
Rubio isn’t an Art. 2, § 1, Cl. 5 natural-born U.S. Citizen.
Little Marco is a neocon and non-starter. He shouldn’t be and won’t be the nominee.
DeSantis would never agree to Marco as a running mate. Ron is law & order.
Rubio wanted to forgive a second huge horde of foreign lawbreakers.
Ron needs someone like Vance supporting Trump, not opposing him. Marco would want that second general amnesty then down the road, a third?
He’s doing well as. Sec. of (Woke) State. Ask him to remain.
Who would be stupid enough to listen to an ESPN sportscaster about anything? You would have to be a brain dead moron.
Comparing Vance with his predecessor (Portman), we are headed in the right direction. His defeat of the “Golden Boy”, Tim Ryan still has me walking on air (TR was the “Shoe In”. ) Bernie Merino beating Sherrod Brown goesthe same way!
Is anyone particularly enthusiastic about either one?
Rubio is doing a great job as a “DIPLOMAT”. NOT a “LEADER”.
Does Rubio strike you as a tough guy?
Rubio, foam pool party boy, “presidential” material?
J.D. Vance, all the way.
