Senator Rick Scott of Florida is considering a late entry into the Republican presidential primary race, a move that would make him the latest high-profile Florida Republican to try to wrest the nomination from Donald J. Trump, according to two people familiar with the discussions.
Should he enter the race, Mr. Scott, Florida’s former governor, would be challenging both the front-runner, Mr. Trump, as well as the distant-second rival, Ron DeSantis, the state’s current governor. Mr. Scott would also join Mr. Trump, Mr. DeSantis and Mayor Francis X. Suarez of Miami as the fourth Republican presidential candidate from Florida. Mr. DeSantis in particular could see his support erode further if Mr. Scott adds to an already crowded field of Trump alternatives.

Is Harold Stassen running again?
He is doing it (like most of them) so it can say “Former Presidential candidate” when the whole themselves out to do interviews.
Also to get the campaign money to use for future “exploratory campaign expenditures”.
I think President Dewey hurt his chances.
My hub just said he’s going to run!
How much does a lead balloon weigh?
Is Harold Stassen running again?
*************
When do we “dig up” Lincoln?
Who in Florida politics is NOT weighing run for the nomination of his or her party for president?
If this keeps up there will be 300. Just how stupid are these guys?
These folks are all running to be Trump’s VP pick. Ultra fast way to elevate profile.
What gives?
Deep State doesn’t have a deep bench, but it does have a YUGE collection of dunce chairs...
The delusional GOP wannabes are certainly looking like assholes.
I agree, but I like him. I’m still voting Trump of course, but I like Scott. Not sure why he thinks he needs to get in the race.
Grandiose delusions.
Although his private business experience involved fraud so yeah. He is good to go
They think Trump will not be running!!! They think Trump will be elsewhere!!
Trump is so far ahead of all the rest.. there is no other reason to enter the race.
IF Trump is taken out of the race.. this Trump voter will hope the world comes to an end.. and save us all from destruction that is hanging out there since the bidens and barry have been at the helm.
It is unbelievably corrupt to have a government that completely ignores the crimes of the bidens and hones in on Trump, who would fire them all and clean up the place..
I’m a senior...I’ve been around for awhile. I’ve voted for a long time. I’ve seen a lot of water over the dam..I’ve seen the ups and down of this land.. NEVER have I seen what is going on today in Washington.. black is white.. up is down... right is wrong.. wrong is right.. laws are no more for the daring left who do not care for this land..they only care for what they get..and a bit of news on that.
You can’t take it with you, and it’s very hot and dirty there.. no water and no light.
Doesnt he identify as a Republican...Who is going to vote for him? Theres already a bunch of RINOs fighting for the non MAGA pie.
lol... I was thinking of Rick Wilson
