Boy you sound like someone incapable of critical thinking.

You’re not reading the tealeaves well but the future will be the proof.

Remember we have had lots of “flash in the pan” strong men & women. Then they stumble, then they are dirtied by the left brought down by lies & gas lighting.

Only one man in modern times has taken a licking & kept on ticking.
Strange to see supposed patriots putting the knife into the best fighter, the best achiever, best promise keeper we have.

Buying the siren song instead of the real deal. Maybe DeSantis will pan out but the big pot of money he has just accepted from the globalists says don’t bet the house on him.

IMO, the RNC is very much part of the Deep State.

I think Trump could get by without them because most of America loves trump.

Screw the RNC.

They never had a best chance. Nor any chance in hell.

I agree. I really don’t think he will run this go-around. His best bet is 2028.

Author trying to be cute.

President this and that...left out Prez Hillary.

DeSantis is hot. He'll appeal to the independents. And the base likes him.

Trump still appeals to the base. But he won't win the general election alone with just the loyalists.

And we haven't even started on the discussion of dirty tricks by the Democrats. It'll be open season on Trump once again in 2024, fair or not.

Our Governor is not that stupid. He has stated he does not plan on running for President in 2024. I believe him. THe only thing that might change that is if President Trump does not run and he gets so much pressure to run from the Repubs across the country he can’t fight it.

He's never pledged to not run in '24. He's also never pledged to not run if trump runs.

Every time he's asked this question, Ron DeSantis deflects that right now he's only concerned with winning his re-election as Governor.

A wise move, of course. If he said before the election that he wants to run for president, Crist would blast him with "RON DESANTIS DOES NOT WANT TO BE YOUR GOVERNOR!" attack ads.

And he's my governor as well. I voted for him in '18, I'll vote for him again in November, and God willing, I'll vote for him two years after that.

Actually, Hillary ran in '08 when everyone thought she would've been a shoe-in for the nomination. Had she beaten Obama in the primaries, I have no doubt she'd have been elected president in '08.

By 2016, she was a has-been. Her time had passed and she couldn't shake the stench of corruption that drove moderate Obama voters to Trump.

She was the one who, rightly, started the whole ‘birther’ controversy.

trump and desantis will coordinate with each other to decide what is best.

I'm pretty sure both of them believe they'd be a better candidate/President than the other. To be honest, I wouldn't have any respect for either of them if they didn't.

The only way someone could argue that Biden got the votes he did was if there was unparalleled hatred for his opponent.

Well, sure. I think that's been the operating theory all along.

Trump’s VP, like Reagan’s Bush, will very likely be the next President of the US after Trump is done.

I think it is far more common for sitting VP's to fail than to succeed when running for President

You know honestly when I look back at trump’s first two years, he did some good things. But he wasn’t able to get 100% republican Congress support. As horrible as Biden is, he seems to be able to get everything he wants out of this Congress. Why is that? Why was Trump unable to get all the things he wanted to done but Biden can? In the last two years, what did Trump accomplish?

If DeSantis beats Crist no matter by how much, he is staying the full 4 years in Florida. DeSantis' main focus is overhauling education in Florida. He wants to free young minds from the "Political Correctness" they are conditioned with at a young age.

If you want him running for Pres in 2024, Crist needs to beat him. I want Crist to lose because DeSantis' mission is vital to the future (Which I hope other State governors emulate what he is pushing to do).

DeSantis is young and a damn fine Gov. Hope he waits until 2028.

My sentiment exactly!

I desperately want President Trump 47 for a "Get even with the Bastards - Make America Great Again tour de force!"
