That was a lot of verbiage, but the essential fact remains that DeSantis spoke absolute truth.The beauty pageant was a women’s competition. Trump was the first to ever allow a man to compete in it. Ergo, Trump was a pioneer on injecting men into women’s competition.

You know as well as I do that 90% of what is classified, does not need to be classified at all. Besides that, a president has the power to declassify. There is no process he has to go through, because he is the authority.

I for one am tired of crooks hiding behind classified BS.

I love my country, but I do not love what it has become. It's being run as a criminal enterprise.

Our Founding Fathers would be horrified as to what she has become.

Biden & Pence had no such power. Both of them are the ones that the book should be thrown at. You should be horrified at the two-tiered system, and should be very concerned about what is going on, but apparently you are not.

Had Trump officially declassified the documents while president it would be fine. But in the case of at least one document, he has admitted he did not. That is punishable by imprisonment.

Name that document. You can't, because you do not know if in fact what he was talking about was real or false. They do not even know what document he was talking about or holding in his hand. Furthermore, he never showed that document to anyone.

You fit the the bill for the saying, penny wise & pound foolish.

You are totally clueless as to what is going on. Your country is being turned into a shithole, which is bad enough, but to turn it into a tyranny is not going to happen.

You just do not like Trump because he ruffles your sensibilities guess.

Of course Ukraine has a right to defend itself. Problem is, they brought this upon themselves, by creating hostilities in eastern Ukraine. However, it was really the CIA who trained the Nazis to attack the Russian speaking Ukrainians. Because the goal was to enflame Putin to finally invade to get the world to take action. In other words, they wanted a proxy war. Zelenskyy agreed to hold a proxy war in his country, and to subject his citizens to the horrors of warfare.

But the point is, we do not need to help Ukraine with money & weapons. We are more than 30 trillion in debt, and the BRICS nations are trying to dethrone the dollar as the world's reserve currency, because the government is spending this nation into poverty, in order to deliver her to the world's elites.

Wake up girl, this is exactly why Trump was elected. He is exposing the rampant corruption of the Deep State, the Uni-party RINO faction of the GOPe, & the Democrat Party.

Instead of cheering him on, you act like he is the traitor here. You are either suffering a bad case of TDS, or you are allowing yourself to be blinded with your belief that you are being rational, because this is a fight for this nation. Rationality has been thrown on the ground & stomped on.

I must say, that it shocks me that you apparently do not see this for yourself. The people want Trump because he's a fighter. We need to stand by him & fight with him. Otherwise, this nation is lost, and you leave your children & grandchildren to suffer the consequences.

Unlike you, I’ve read the indictments, all of them, so I know what I’m talking about.There was at least one witness in the room when Trump was waiving the document around who will testify as to what it was. That witness did not have clearance to see it. The prosecutor has the document in question. It is a map illustrating our plans to invade Iran. THAT is rightfully highly classified. Trump stated at the time that it was classified and that he hadn’t declassified it.

That is a crime punishable by jail time.

Are these prosecutions politically motivated? Absolutely. Witness the fact that Trump is the only one being prosecuted while others have done worse. But that doesn’t excuse Trump’s actions. “What about the other guy” is a spurious argument that I don’t accept.

Wake up, boy, Trump exposed the deep state, then the deep state got him out of office, and since virtually none of his accomplishments were put into law, Biden undid almost everything he accomplished on day one.

Wake up, boy. You say Trump is a fighter, but since 2020 when covid hit, he is a fighter who LOSES. Always. The deep state is having its way with him up one side and down the other, in case you haven’t noticed,and there’s very little he can do about it. Remember when Schumer said the intel community can screw you six ways from Sunday? Take it from someone who was asked to join the Council on Foreign Relations (and refused, because I have integrity) that he is absolutely right. We haven’t seen anything yet where lawfare is concerned. Buckle in.

Wake up, boy. Trump may win in FL, because even Miami now is red (thanks to DeSantis.) He will be convicted in DC and Fulton Co. Hopefully the Supremes will grant cert for an appeal, if not the deep state will win completely.

As for the first part, the President has declassification authority but he has to actually declassify it, which is an administrative process. The President merely thinking it, or asserting it after the fact, is not enough. The fact that Trump said while he was waiving it around that he had not done so is a big problem. Wake up boy.

What did they threaten the witness with? Because if he was waving it around, she couldn't possibly see what was on it.

But the truth of the matter is, that a president cannot be held liable, period. He can declassify any document, and there is no process he has to follow either.

Enjoy what's coming down the pike. I think you deserve what's coming.

You really need to wake up madam, because you are being gaslighted by this lawfare against Trump. Perhaps you think Trump is a real scumbag, but the truth is, Trump is the only person willing to stand up to the tyranny they want to make global.

For a person who was in intelligence work, I must admit I am not impressed with your lack of knowledge that a President can declassify documents, as long as they do not really threaten this nation. He's not like normal citizens.

You really need to wake up to the lawfare that is creating a two-tiered system, in a land that was created on the fundamental foundation based upon law & order.

I mean, it's not like there is no evidence to confirm what I am saying. It's important that people wake up & see the truth.

Humanity living in freedom depends on this.

When the WEF states that you will have nothing & you will be happy, you had better pay attention. The first part is absolutely true, the last part is a lie to get the support of the stupid. I think you are smarter than that.

Pay attention, because the world is going to a very dark place. Lose your TDS, & start paying attention. It might help you to watch Bannon's war Room. He has very informed people who lay out what is happening, not just here, but across the globe.

Trump is temperamentally unequipped for what is happening to him. If he doesn’t learn to take good advice and stop insulting everybody, he will end up in jail. That’s a fact, whether you like it or not.

Read New York Times vs. CIA, where the appeals court held that specific procedures must be followed, even by the President, before materials were considered declassified. No doubt the issue will end up with the Supreme Court, but if declassification were the automatic slam-dunk you think it is, why isn’t Trump defending the issue on that basis? Because he isn’t. He’s defending it by saying the document he was waving around wasn’t the Iran war plan map, that it was something else. That’s because he, or more likely his attorneys, have read existing case law and know that if it’s proven that the document was the war plan, Trump’s in big trouble. Declassification, even by a President, is not automatic, no matter how many times you say it is.

I’m well aware of what is going on in the world, and take no pleasure in any of this lawfare. We are indeed heading down a dark path. But I am pointing out the facts, however much you may not like them.

But Biden is? Again, you are paying attention in the wrong area.

Riding The Dragon

Watch the whole video, it's about the Biden family corruption & how they are selling our nation to China. Donald John Trump on the other hand is trying to save this nation. You act like in ingrate who objects to optics, while missing the picture entirely. Shame on you.

Whataboutism is not an argument. That Biden is morally unfit for the presidency doesn’t change the fact that Trump is temperamentally unfit.

Again, your TDS has gotten in your way of thinking clearly.

Tell me what makes Donald John Trump temperamentally unfit to serve? The only President in modern history to not start an endless war. He helped bring back an economy, though it was lost because the Democrats & the RINOs, helped to destroy it because they along with their Chinese compatriots released a virus & then hyping up its severity, in order to facilitate the theft of an election. He significantly stopped the influx of invaders along our southern border. He was the first president to recognize & do something about the human trafficking problem.

Name another president in modern history that has put America first, which is what every president should be doing.

Well, I guess you just aren't interested in defending your argument with facts. Probably because you have no facts to offer. Just your TDS that rules & distorts your thinking abilities.

Well, you will leave your children & grandchildren an awful life, and you can take that to the bank, if there is a bank left to take it to.

I don’t dispute his accomplishments, except that NONE of them, not one, other than tax cuts which will expire soon, has survived his presidency. Executive orders are no way to run a country.He ran on “draining the swamp”, but the swamp has drained him, if anything, and continues to do so at their leisure.

He is temperamentally unfit because he: 1. overestimates his control over events and frequently acts and speaks without considering the consequences, 2. chastises others, including others whose help he desperately needs (McCain, Kemp) in public rather than private, which is an indefensible ROOKIE leadership mistake, so we still have Obamacare and he has Kemp actively opposing him in GA. 3. His personnel choices are almost universally abysmal, and don’t give me the “everyone was against him” BS excuse, because if he couldn’t drain the swamp he had no business running on that promise. EVERY president deals with the entrenched DC establishment; Trump is not unique. 5.He let his brainless daughter and her corrupt husband have much too much power in his White House, to predictable results. 6. He is morally unfit because he called thousands of people to the capital, promised them something big, delivered his standard stump speech, and then when the foreseeable happened, abandoned those people to their fate. He is a reprehensible human being, who will use anyone and discard them at will. He is a showman who overpromises and underdelivers, and then blames others for his failures. 7. As for the economy, 90% of that was drill baby drill and reduced regulations, something every Republican presidential candidate has advocated, and which every republican president has enacted to one extent or another. Coming out of the Obama years it was easy to get economic growth because there was nowhere to go but up. That will be the case again if we can ever get another Republican President. And it won’t make that President special either. 8. He routinely fails to pay his bills, including still owing some venues for his 2016 run and a bunch of unpaid lawyers, which is probably about to bite him on the butt AGAIN, but he, as usual, didn’t foresee. Anything. Ever.

Trumps’s ego has been writing checks his ass can’t cover for years now, and he does not deserve to be anywhere near the White House.

And before you comfort yourself by telling yourself that I am some leftist disruptor, feel free to check my posting history under this name and the names of LNV and LadyNavyVet. I’ve been here off and on since the 90s and fully supported Trump in 2015, 2016 and 2020. I eagerly voted for him both times, but when he called those innocent supporters to DC and forsook them when they ended up in jail, he lost me, permanently.

I forgot: 8. Trump allowed his germophobia to overcome common sense and encouraged states to lock down, asked Congress for money and signed into law MASSIVE expenditures so governors had the money to lockdown. There would have been no lockdowns without that money and Trump was the one who paid for ALL of it. Remember Rush, “If you pay for something you get more of it?” We are STILL paying for Trump’s poor decision making in abysmal student test scores, low levels of labor participation, etc. The results will be felt for years. Yes, Biden is responsible for some of the excessive covid spending, but germophobe Trump opened the door for him. Which bring us to 9. Trump asked and signed into law billions for Big Pharma to create his big, beautiful vaccine, and publicly (again publicly because Trump couldn’t stay off Twitter) chastised them and the FDA that they weren’t moving fast enough, so what did they do? Take the billions and create a half-assed “vaccine” that’s killing people faster than the disease did. Trump paid for it and he owns it, and the pathetically weak argument that “Trump didn’t make anybody take it” has absolutely no validity. Trump didn’t foresee that throwing billions at them and telling them to hurry up might compromise the quality of what they produced. Because he doesn’t foresee consequences. Ever. Shall I go on?

And if you think for one minute that I am happy about the world my children and grandchildren are inheriting, you can stick your opinions right up your backside. Just don’t hit your brain while you’re up there.

You didn't forget 8, you just can't read you own post because of terrible formatting. Here was your original 8:

8. He routinely fails to pay his bills, including still owing some venues for his 2016 run and a bunch of unpaid lawyers, which is probably about to bite him on the butt AGAIN, but he, as usual, didn’t foresee. Anything. Ever.

But I see your problem. You expect Trump to be perfect. Do you expect the same of yourself? Do you ever get mad at yourself for your imperfections? I know I sure do about myself.

First off, Trump is a human being and as such is just as vulnerable & prone to making mistakes like everyone else.

Secondly you claim he has a big ego. For someone who is a billionaire, he exhibits an ego that is not nearly as inflated as most billionaires I've observed.

I honestly believe that he would much rather being doing just about anything else, than the task he has taken up to try & do what he can for this nation & her citizens.

But of course someone, such as yourself, who is the living example of perfection can only find faults.

Well, let's look at facts regarding you.

You obviously spent decades in service to our country in both the Navy & in intelligence work. Thank you for your service, BTW.

Therefore, I assume you knew about some of the criminal aspects of our leaders. Were you ever a whistleblower speaking out against these criminal activities you noticed? If not why not? I really already know, because my father also did the same thing, and saw many of these criminal acts but he remained silent, because he didn't want to put his family in harms way. He also fought in WWII & Korea. I don't think he had the strength to fight against his country that he loved, to be quite honest. But he would complain to me. My mother was the same way. She worked at the Pentagon, and also saw BS happening there.

What I am trying to say is, that you are just as prone as every other human, of being imperfect, but also like most people, you are more than willing to cast stones.

Let's just take examples that you provided, such as the he doesn't pay his bills. First off, I doubt you have any personal knowledge of this claim. So, therefore you had to have garnered that from the presstitutes who have infamously reported lies upon lies about him since he announced himself as a candidate for the presidency in 2015.

Now I have no way of knowing if he does or doesn't pay his bills, but I am not concerned about that anyway. I am concerned about this nation & what the world will look like without an America present. It's not a pretty picture. But as we slide further down the immoral hole of secularism, the less importance an America actually plays on the world scene. In fact, we are down to being just another tyrannical nation who is willing to do anything for wealth at the exclusion of humanity. But let's move on.

You criticize him for ROOKIE mistakes, even though he was a rookie in the world of politics, from the inside perspective. You criticized him for attacking the likes of McCain & Kemp. I know lots of military people who have criticized McCain for his antics in the military, and his behavior as a POW. Some of his antics as a pilot are questionable perhaps, but he still served his nation, albeit not perfectly. But I can't fault that which I never experienced. But his behavior as a Senator was totally unacceptable, in my opinion. He wasn't my Senator, so I just accepted him, though rarely applauded him.

As far as Kemp goes, Trump supported him. The only controversy I could find about them was the reporting that he & Kemp got into a disagreement about Kemp opening up his economy, & Trump saying his only reservation was the opening of tattoo parlors & spas. If that reporting is accurate, I stand behind Kemp on the issue. But it's still a petty argument by you in my opinion, as well.

You also mentioned that we still have Obamacare, which I find laughable. For almost a decade we heard the Republicans state how they would repeal Obamacare at their earliest opportunity. They had that opportunity to do so in 2017, when they owned both Houses of Congress, the Executive Branch, & a slim majority in the Supreme Court. What they showed was that they had no clue as to how to get rid of Obamacare, because they had no plan whatsoever. They squandered the House control, and then the squandered the Senate control. Now you want to blame that on Trump, because the GOPe tells you that it was all Trump's fault. That's BS. It was their fault for having no planning in place to tackle the issues. But like you, they are good at pointing their fingers away from themselves. You obviously learned the bureaucrat shuffle while employed in service to this nation. It also tells you just what an indictive person McCain was also. He had his opportunity to do what was best for the nation, and he chose to carry on his pettiness to thwart Trump. But I noticed you didn't bring up that about McCain. Why did you ignore that? Oh, that's right. This is just all about trashing Trump. Never mind.

Now let's move on to the plandemic & the response to that plandemic.

You say that his germaphobia overtook his common sense & encouraged everyone to lock down, asked Congress for money and signed into law MASSIVE expenditures so governors had the money to lockdown. Seven states that never locked their states down, were Arkansas, Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Wyoming, and Utah.

First off he never dictated that anyone close down their state. He left it entirely up to them, in large part because he was bound constitutionally to the states rights to do whatever when the Federal Government does not have that constitutionally mandated power.

But here again, he is not a medical expert. He relied upon the presumed medical expertise that the Federal Government employed & had in place, in the bureaucratically uncontrollable structure that exists, and which no president has had control over since JFK made that horrible decision, or rather concession for the 1960 election theft.

Here is a picture of Trump & Fauci in April of 2020:

FILE - In this April 22, 2020 file photo, President Donald Trump watches as Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, speaks about the coronavirus in the James Brady Press Briefing Room of the White House in Washington. (AP Photo/Alex Brandon)\

AP FACT CHECK: Trump’s alternate reality on COVID-19 threat

Gee, for a germaphobia compromised person, he sure didn't take the precaution of wearing masks. Could it be just that he guards against germs by rational measures, suck as using soap & water to abate the affects of germs? Gee, I don't know, but he certainly doesn't seem to have the hysterical attitude towards germs as you make him out as having.

Here is a headline from the New York Slimes from Apr. 29th 2020:

Trump Encourages Protest Against Governors Who Have Imposed Virus Restrictions

If governors were going to lock down their states, then the people needed some kind of relief to help them survive. It sounds like you thought he should he just have allowed them to fend for themselves with violence, which is what would have resulted.

I think the main problem here, is that you are looking for a person who is more measured, while MAGA supporters are looking for a person who is willing to stand up & fight these criminals, instead of appeasing & caving to them like the kind of leaders you are looking for in your delicate little world of feigned perfection. They have proven themselves to be unworthy of support, many times over, and the definition of insanity is to keep trying the same thing over & over with the expectation of obtaining a different result in the next go around.

In reality, it's a world chock full of imperfection because the good Lord gave mankind free will. Because without free will, man would never realize his need to learn & improve his mental growth capabilities. For it is only through hardship that people strive to become better people. If they don't, then they strive to become more clever & sinister people. Some who have strived to become better people & have succeeded, lose their way. They then strive to become more powerful & gain more control, because they have lost all tough with humanity. Like Satan himself, they see themselves as demigods.

I honestly wonder if you really understand what the world is actually facing. This is the Biblical story of the ever present battle of good vs. evil, and how to recognize how to discern between who & what represents good, and who & what represents evil.

Think about it for awhile. Is Donald John Trump trying to represent good or evil. Are his opponents trying to represent good or evil?

If you need guidance, look to the Lord.

Number 8 again, for the comprehension-challenged: He doesn’t pay his bills, including his legal bills, which is about to bite him on the ass. My source for that is Rudy’s lawyer’s statements.

I never said Trump made a rookie political mistake, I said that he made a rookie leadership mistake. “Praise in public, chastise in private” is taught in pretty much every business school, military leadership course, corporate training, etc. As a Wharton School grad, he was taught that, but he just doesn’t care if he publicly embarrasses people, to his detriment.

As for Fauci: https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefings-statements/president-trump-awards-presidential-commendations-operation-warp-speed-team/ Check the date on that.

As for your silly little dig about faith, which you only made because you have no real argument, I am a lifelong church going, choir-singing, youth-group-leading, gospel reading, Bible-studying Christian. Your philosophical meanderings have nothing to teach me, and Trump, not to be confused with Jesus Christ, isn’t going to save us from any of what’s coming.

I won’t even get into the “you think you’re perfect” nonsense. That is an argument only worthy of a children’s playground.

Shall I go on? 9. He didn’t lock her up. He didn’t even try. 10. He built a mere 47 miles of new wall, and Mexico didn’t pay a dime for any of it. 11....

In the end, Trump built a mere fraction of what he promised, 452 miles of a wall — most of which replaced old, existing fencing.

The old existing fencing that they mention, but never elaborate on, was chain-link fencing that was useless.

It never ceases to amuse me, how you blame unlawful lawfare used against Trump & those who stood with him, on Trump himself, instead of the criminal elements that are destroying this nation. But I realize that some people such as yourself suffer from a severe case of TDS.

Number 8 again, for the comprehension-challenged: He doesn’t pay his bills, including his legal bills, which is about to bite him on the ass. My source for that is Rudy’s lawyer’s statements.

Yeah, I understood your point the 1st time you listed it. I've heard these lies from the presstitutes in the years since Trump descended on the escalator to announce his candidacy for president in 2015. I even responded that I do not care about those claims, for the person I am looking for is a fighter for this nation. Apparently you are the one who is comprehension-challenged. I don't care about it even if Rudy's lawyer said it. Rudy's legal problems are not limited to just the one in Ga., but they all do extend from Rudy's support for Trump. It's disgusting & it's criminal as well, but that is no reason that Trump is responsible. So far, I haven't heard Rudy make this claim, have you? But you are oh so willing to believe every negative thing you read & hear about Trump. I get it, you hate Trump.

Of the candidates that have announced, who do you support?

He built 47 miles of new wall, exactly as I said.

Rudy’s lawyer has been on TV. If you get outside the FR bubble, it’s amazing what you can learn.

Nowhere have I said nor even implied that I blame Trump for the lawfare. I can see as well as anybody what the Democrats are doing. I do, however, partly blame him in the Mar a Lago case, where he’s getting what he deserves. You probably don’t know, but Trump wasn’t indicted for having the documents, he was indicted for not returning them after a subpoena was issued. That’s STUPID, and he deserves everything he’s going to get in that case. And before you start with the whataboutism again—Biden and Pence also deserve to be in a cell with Trump for their mishandling of classified material. The difference is they never defied a subpoena. (And Biden’s democrat privilege is obviously the main reason in his case.)

As for whom I support at this point the answer is that I am undecided. I like DeSantis the best of the also-rans, although I didn’t like his waffle on Ukraine at all. I think Trump will win the nomination, though. Republicans aren’t called the Stupid Party for nothing.

Were you as wrong in your intelligence gathering as you are on the border wall issue?

He built 47 miles of new wall, exactly as I said.

The wall was a constant source of controversy, prompting fierce criticism from environmentalists and Democrats. Its construction and funding was also the target of a number of lawsuits.

Before Biden stopped new construction on the wall, the Trump administration had built 458 miles of what it dubbed “border wall system,” according to final figures compiled by U.S. Customs and Border Protection and provided to U.S. News.

The wall consists mostly of 18- to 30-foot steel bollards anchored in concrete. The barriers also feature sensors, lights, cameras and parallel roads in some places.

The vast majority of the 458 miles were constructed in places where some kind of barrier already existed, but most of the preexisting structures were far less imposing than the new wall and included fencing and rudimentary technical barriers. The total figure also includes what the agency calls “secondary border wall” or sections of wall built behind preexisting barriers that ultimately remained in place. Had the 2020 election not been stolen, then he would have completed the wall. But of course you, no doubt, believe it was a fair & honest election, even with all of the anomalies the 2020 election produced that defy the odds, numerically speaking. But if you think that Biden actually got 81 million votes, then you are nothing but a vary bad joke.

How Much of Trump’s Border Wall Was Built?

In case you haven't noticed, I do not take much stock in what you have to say.

Rudy’s lawyer has been on TV. If you get outside the FR bubble, it’s amazing what you can learn.

Let me repeat myself again, I could care less what Rudy's lawyer has to say. I haven't heard Rudy say it, but I have heard Rudy recently defend Trump that he & Rudy were charged under the RICO Act by a Ga. prosecutor who shares the same amount of severe TDS as you possess.

As for whom I support at this point the answer is that I am undecided. I like DeSantis the best of the also-rans, although I didn’t like his waffle on Ukraine at all.

I just knew by your stupid usage of the phrase of whataboutisms repeatedly, that you, just like all of the other ignorant Ukraine/Zelenskyy cheerleaders , support Ukraine in the conflict. Ukraine actually started that conflict, with a big push by the CIA by fomenting a coup d'état in 2014. Then the CIA trained the Azov Battalion, a highly recognized battalion made up entirely of Nazi supporters, to wage acts of terrorism in eastern Ukraine against the Russian speaking Ukrainians who had lived there for generations.

You would know that if didn't remain in the bubble referred to as the Main Stream Media, you might learn some truth for a change instead of the propaganda they fill your mind with..

Were you also wracked with utter fear for Covid too?

The difference is they never defied a subpoena. (And Biden’s democrat privilege is obviously the main reason in his case.)

Either your ignorance runs deep, or you have one of the most severe cases of TDS I have ever encountered.

Article III Project Statement on the Unsealing of Jack Smith’s Bogus Indictment of President Trump

WASHINGTON — Mike Davis, Founder and President of the Article III Project, issued the following statement after the unsealing of Special Counsel Jack Smith’s indictment of President Trump:

“Today’s indictment, the day after we learned the FBI covered up evidence since 2017 then-Vice President Biden and his family took at least $10 million in foreign bribes and changed U.S. policy, confirms Garland’s indictment of Trump is political. The Presidential Records Act, not Espionage Act, controls a former president’s handling of his presidential records. Generally, per a binding 2019 Justice Department legal opinion, it’s legally impossible to obstruct an investigation into a non-crime. The theory the President of the United States can declassify information and still get charged for espionage–under a ‘national defense information’ theory—will not survive Supreme Court review,” Davis said.

The Article III Project (A3P) was founded by veteran GOP operative and attorney Mike Davis, who, after helping win the Senate confirmation battles of Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, developed the reputation as a “take-no-prisoners conservative eager to challenge the left with hardball tactics,” as reported in The New York Times.

A3P defends constitutionalist judges, punches back on radical assaults on judicial independence (like court-packing) and opposes judicial and other nominees who are outside of the mainstream. Davis previously served as Chief Counsel for Nominations to Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) on the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary and led the Senate confirmation of Justice Brett Kavanaugh and a record number of circuit court judges.

I'm not sure you can actually handle the truth, but I will give you a shot.

As for whom I support at this point the answer is that I am undecided. I like DeSantis the best of the also-rans, although I didn’t like his waffle on Ukraine at all. I think Trump will win the nomination, though. Republicans aren’t called the Stupid Party for nothing.

No argument with regards of the Republican Party being the Stupid Party, as far as, I am concerned.

It's that stupidity that compelled the base to reject anything & everything they had offered for us to choose from. Trump wasn't afraid to speak the truth which rushed over the people like a breath of fresh air. You on the other hand seem to be well suited for the GOPe.
