Picture this: The 2024 GOP Dream Team
Townhall.com ^ | 9/4/21 | Deroy Murdock

Posted on 09/04/2021 9:46:40 AM PDT by Michael.SF.

But what if Trump, who will be 78 at the next presidential election, bequeathed the GOP standard to a new generation of Republican leadership? If so, visualize this 2024 Dream Team:

•President of the United States – Governor Ron DeSantis (R – Florida)

•Vice President of the United States – U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R – South Carolina)

Definitely “NO!” to Tim Scott.

I am okay with Scott as VP. He’s a solid dude and good campaigner. I would not be thrilled with him at the top. Too wobbly and establishment to lead. Same with his state’s former governor Haley.

Although very intriguing, I’m not sure Trump would be effective as Speaker. Too much minutiae and bureaucracy for his taste.

He certainly would be highly preferable than any Democrat alternative.

O’Brien, McFarland, McCarthy, Scott? Is this supposed to be a joke? The same DS vipers Trump ruined himself with. The problem with staying with the Uniparty (R), the DS sewer runs broadly through it.

Allen West. Good mention. SecDef, highly preferable to Kevin McCarthy.

If it’s Trump/DeSantis 2024 and to avoid the Florida electors running afoul of the 12th Amendment, one of them should establish residency in another state beforehand. Trump currently is spending a lot of time in New Jersey; I could see him switching his residency there.

Alternatively, I like Trump/Pompeo 2024 a lot. Like DeSantis, Pompeo is an outspoken and well spoken true conservative. He’s held elective office in the House, plus he’s a military man, the top graduate of his class at West Point.

Given the sh*t the Sock Puppet (Obama/Soros/Bernie) Communist regime has created in foreign policy, at our borders, and in the economy, a competent, forceful individual such as DeSantis or Pompeo to partner with Trump, the real president, is needed as he wins a third election.

“We have the most sophisticated and inclusive voter fraud organization in history.”

Voting no longer matters. Even if, by some chance, a republican ever wins again, the bureaucracy will always be there.

Got an interesting idea. One of the strongest talents for Trump is one the libs claimed he had no history in, which was a pile of crap...foreign relations:

Secretary of State.

Duties:

Serves as the President’s principal adviser on U.S. foreign policy;

Conducts negotiations relating to U.S. foreign affairs;

Grants and issues passports to American citizens and exequaturs to foreign consuls in the United States;

Advises the President on the appointment of U.S. ambassadors, ministers, consuls, and other diplomatic representatives;

Advises the President regarding the acceptance, recall, and dismissal of the representatives of foreign governments;

Personally participates in or directs U.S. representatives to international conferences, organizations, and agencies;

Negotiates, interprets, and terminates treaties and agreements;

Ensures the protection of the U.S. Government to American citizens, property, and interests in foreign countries;

Supervises the administration of U.S. immigration laws abroad;

Provides information to American citizens regarding the political, economic, social, cultural, and humanitarian conditions in foreign countries;

Informs the Congress and American citizens on the conduct of U.S. foreign relations;

Promotes beneficial economic intercourse between the United States and other countries;

Administers the Department of State;

Supervises the Foreign Service of the United States.

In addition, the Secretary of State retains domestic responsibilities that Congress entrusted to the State Department in 1789. These include the custody of the Great Seal of the United States, the preparation of certain presidential proclamations, the publication of treaties and international acts as well as the official record of the foreign relations of the United States, and the custody of certain original treaties and international agreements. The Secretary also serves as the channel of communication between the Federal Government and the States on the extradition of fugitives to or from foreign countries.

I’m not sure anyone could fill the position better with his history of successes overseas and be a better representative of our conservative country and people’s needs.

They were scared stupid when he was POTUS but have no fear of the Biden administration. Let’s put him right back in their faces and see if they back off.

I like that combo too. I like Ron DeSantis too, but Pompeo’s military experience and knowledge of foreign affairs makes him a good pairing with Trump in 2024, and also a serious presidential candidate in 2028!

There is no team that can win an election if 2020 is not fixed.

Senators make poor executives and Candice is a younger, black Ann coulter.

Why must you pander to blacks?
So we can get 10,000 more black votes, and lose a couple million white votes?

How old is Marjorie Taylor Green?

DeSantis at the top. She should be VP

Trump blew it with disastrous personnel choices like Sessions and Barr and many others. He likely would be in White House today if it were not for mistakes like this.

Tim Scott? Don’t make me laugh!

Besides.

UNTIL we resolve the 2020 election theft, 2022 and 2024 won’t mean a thing.

Stolen Elections come with a very high price and carry dire consequences.

That alone should give people pause when considering Trump for another term.

People keep blaming the snake McConnell, but this ignores how well Trump seemed to handle pretty much any other opponent. I think he just doesn’t appraise people very well.

Agreed. I don’t think McCarthy has done anything to be rewarded for.
