I would happily vote for either, and I agree that it's good to have a real choice. What I don't get is where all this Trump hatred is coming from. Yeah, he made a bunch of bone-headed moves as president, particularly in his cabinet appointments. He took a lot of bad advice from a lot of RINOs... his naivety is now pretty apparent. Hopefully, he's a lot more savvy now.
But he also did a lot of good -- tax cuts (particularly the corporate tax cut), energy independence, increase in manufacturing, et cetera And Trump also ignited the America First and MAGA movements among the Republican base. Those aren't just catchy campaign slogans... they're sentiments deeply rooted in Conservatism and patriotism.

Excellent comments! Regarding where the hate comes from, it comes from two phenomena. First, the threats Trump posed to the agenda of the wicked and their loss of power, and second, their psychosis. Yes, psychosis! I firmly believe that those on the other side are absolutely delusional and literally have lost their minds from Trump’s triggers. Most of them were about half crazy to start and he simply nudged them over.
He absolutely did good! Frankly, it was a travesty that the election was stolen. But had it not been for his four years of logic and business sense we would be on the very verge of collapse today. Actually, we are almost there now at only a little over a year of Xiden and the dem congress.
In the last 18 months, there have been atrocious decisions that directly affect all of us — and the outlook is a big question mark (even considering IF there is a sweep in November).
My personal bottom line is I’m pulling for DeSantis, but would certainly take either. DeSantis so far has proven to be effective in governing and does so without all the drama. The drama was a feature of Trump that had both positive and negative consequences. It was a different time, but Reagan was also very effective and did so without all the drama. I am hoping we can get to that place again — if it is not too late.
