Hopefully Team Trump was reading here last year when we predicted the moves of the professionally Republican. 😉 Today, as predicted, Miami Mayor Francis Suarez files to run for the 2024 GOP nomination. He’s not running to win; he’s running to split. I’ll explain. Murdoch had Suarez on Fox News Sunday for a reason.
FOX NEWS – Miami Mayor Francis Suarez officially filed paperwork on Wednesday declaring his campaign for president in 2024 as a Republican, according to a Federal Election Commission filing.
The filing comes after a newly re-branded super PAC that supports Suarez launched a digital ad blitz earlier Wednesday in the first four states that hold contests in the 2024 GOP presidential nominating calendar. (more)
Here’s the Florida plan from the CLUB. ♦Carve out the largest voter population center of Miami-Dade from the GOP nomination (that’s what Suarez is for). ♦Change the Florida primary rules from the current ‘winner-take-all,’ so that delegates are distributed ‘proportionately’ (will happen rules). ♦Split the remainder of the state votes between DeSantis and Trump, permitting DeSantis to carry out delegates with a 2nd place finish.
The “Florida Play” won’t work as effectively now that Ron DeSantis is naked with his ambitions to the public. That’s a big part of the reason why I went full wolverine as soon as I saw the design last summer. It’s also the reason why I included Suarez in the graphic above, while everyone laughed at me.
The GOPe is predictable.
Now watch two things. 1. Watch for the Florida delegate rule changes; and 2. Keep watching nationally for the moves of the Republican Governors Association (RGA).
The Club plan requires the RGA to play a big role against Trump. The Republican Governors are under pressure to align with the program.

“♦Change the Florida primary rules from the current ‘winner-take-all,’ so that delegates are distributed ‘proportionately’ (will happen rules).”
Just a note on this item. Recall that in 2016 they changed the rules FROM proportional TO winner-take-all to assist Jeb! with the nomination.
Whatever they need to do in the moment is their motto.
Who cares?
Do you really think, he thought he would run. He wasn’t going to be VP either. He was just trying to raise his profile.
YES. Free publicity
It means he'll try for Senate or Governor next.
BTTT
I am not sure if he got enough attention for that, but I also don’t know who else will be his competition.
Who cares?
You are insane if you think Suarez is hurting the Trump campaign. I never even heard of him until yesterday. Put down the crack pipe.
