‘ They poured in under Trump too.’ and every other comment you’ve made today

————————————

Who writes legislation?
Can DeSantis get Congress to be MAGA?
Should the President be allowed to tell states what to do?
Should Congress tell states what to do?
Who’s more powerful, Congress or the president?

On a larger scale - how can DeSantis win the general if he can’t win the primary?
If DeSantis cannot win the primary, why run?

Maybe you’re fine with carnival barking but it changes zero minds. Be honest for once, answer the questions. It’s fine to support DeSantis for any reason you choose - millions supported Biden just because he was a democrat. And we call them morons because they have zero understanding of government, policies and facts. Your commentary puts you in that category as well. Impress us all by adding some substance and clarity.

As a side note, DeSantis cannot win the general for these reasons:

Passed 6 week abortion
Went authoritarian on censorship, Disney, gay laws, book banning, etc.
Lack of personality, not likable

Whether you think the above is true or not, doesn’t matter - the dems and media will frame it as such. The independents and moderates will not like the above. He’ll be painted as a right wing extremist and the legislation he has already passed in FL reflects that. They will say he will do the same authoritarian things to every state.

Now you and others may want that……..until a democrat does the same thing as president. What DeSantis is doing in FL works because it is an independent state. The voters elected mostly Rep representatives throughout FL because that is the type of legislation they want. The presidency is different.

More power needs to be handed to the states, less power in the DC bubble.

I love Trump but I have to turn him off.

Does he offend you or make you feel all dirty inside? Maybe you'd be better off in never never land. Because in this land, the weak are assimilated into the deep state. desanctomonious has been assimilated.

“He stands against open Borders and wants the border closed. He just said it.”

Why didn’t Trump build the wall? He had 4 years to do it.

Of course DeSantis is going to say this. It’s a safe, effective answer because his internal polling done by Paul Ryan told him to say this.

Calling people by demeaning nicknames is the sign of a very low-ethics, low-intelligence, almost childish individual. Does that sound familiar at all?

“Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said Saturday that he would close down the southern border to restore order”

Right thing to do

No, it’s his principles, the ones he has used to take the battle to the Marxists again and again.

Promising to close the border isn't very original.

What would Ronnie do to force the Republican establishment to finish the wall and secure the border? That is the question. I would guess nothing since he's owned by the establishment and GOP donors that utilize illegal immigrants.

Why didn’t Trump hire better Lawyers in Nov. 2020? The guys he hired were a joke.

“Yes. I’m in favor of using the Government against Marxists. Trump’s problem was that he was way too nice. Hopefully he has learned. These people have forfeited the right to be called Americans. They support Treason.”

Agree with you, but does Trump? I think not. When Trump needed to call out the troops to fight Antifa and BLM during the BLM riots of 2020, he did nothing. Trump lacks the courage to act decisively, in my opinion. Has he learned? Doubtful.

If we win PA, then there is no way that Biden gets re-elected. Trump can’t win PA.

And if he loves his country... he would add...Like Ted Cruz did... President Trump in 2020 had border crossings at a 45 year low...

If he followed up with. Trump won the election, but we have evil people working in our government who stole it... then I would be on the Ron Train... until Ron DeSantis says the 2020 election was stolen through industrial scale voter fraud... Give me more Trump. He is the only one telling the truth.
