Doubtful. Especially once people get a better idea of his view on putting transsexuals in the military, supporting H1B, etc

Doubtful. Especially once people get a better idea of his view on putting transsexuals in the military, supporting H1B, etc.>>>> Post some supporting links. From what i have heard him say he is not pro trans and calls it a mental illness.

His illegal immigration position is horrific.

I suspect he’s an intel asset like Clinton and Obama were, in the race for a name recognition or veep opportunity to start. He’s playing that sunny “hope and change” kind tune, but for the patriotic, GOP set.

Polls at this point are often tied to name recognition and for him to be rising as a newcomer may suggest that he’s clicking into that great young hope sweet spot that Clinton and Obama found.

You really should educate yourself before making baseless claims. Now go ahead and take your foot out of your mouth please........Seems most DeSantis backers, at least the ones who post here, are completely intellectually dishonest. It’s a pattern for sure.

“I’ve also been clear about my position on the trans cult in America: transgenderism is most often a mental health disorder & should be treated accordingly. We live in a free country & that means you’re free to act how you want as an *adult*, but you can’t foist your views onto everyone else. Leave our kids alone, don’t try to change our language, our bathrooms, our sports. Don’t mandate special “trainings” in our workplace, our schools, our military. “You be you,” but don’t force everyone else to bend the knee to your confused belief system.

The Left attacks me for this as “transphobic” and for violating “trans rights.” They’re wrong about that, and I defeat them in debate about it every time.

But I also believe in consistency. If someone wants to serve our country, they should be able to serve so long as they don’t create risk or undue cost for other Americans. The risk of letting someone with a mental health problem serve in combat roles is too high, but for most roles in the military (administrative, support, legal, etc.), I don’t think a categorical ban makes sense. If a trans adult can’t serve as a JAG attorney, why should they be able to serve as a public prosecutor, defense attorney, local cop, fireman, doctor, or nurse either?

To the contrary: reviving our culture of national service can help address our mental health epidemic. I embrace national service as a precondition for voting, so it’d be totally inconsistent for me to ban an aspiring citizen who wants to serve his country from being able to do so in a non-combat role.”

Love how FReepers have to tell everyone why every candidate does not pass their purity test. He is not going to win but would make a good VP or IT specialist.
