How about hanging out in Florida and doing your job for a change, Ron? I will say that the one thing I agree with him from this article, is that Trump shouldn’t focus on identity politics when choosing a running mate.

As far as his recent term-limits campaign, it’s nothing more than a political stunt. I’m in favor of term limits. Trump is in favor of term limits. Most conservatives are in favor of term limits, and have been for 30 years. And yet we’re still talking about it. Unless he has some new and effective strategy for actually making it happen, all his talk is of little consequence. It would likely be one of those issues that would quickly be put on the back burner once in office, if he ever made it to the White House.

The problem is that, as President, it’s difficult to leverage Congress into passing a term-limits amendment when their cooperation is needed on other more immediate issues. I’m not saying there isn’t a way to make it happen but it’s a tough problem to solve - a lot easier to talk about than to accomplish.

This is where he gets it wrong.

“I have heard that they’re looking MORE in identity politics. I think that’s a mistake. I think you should just focus on who the best person for the job would be, and then do that accordingly.” - Ron DeSantis

Really, you’ve heard that, Ron? Trump said nothing about identity politics. Who said he’s not picking the best person? Trump was given Laura Ingraham’s list and he said those are good people. That’s not playing identity politics. That’s just being smart. And Ron is just preaching and just trying to make himself look good to his delegates.
