“My reasons are too lengthy to name but mainly our retirement account.”

Your main concern is your retirement acccount. Fair enough.

I don't understand why you blame Governor DeSantis for a deterioration of your retirement account. Did he pass a law to cut it?

More likely you have been damaged - like all of us - by profligate spending in Washington D.C. Democrats and Republicans in D.C. have printed trillions of dollars and pumped it into the economy.

Inflation alone has probably robbed your retirement account of 25 percent of its purchasing power since 2020. Forget 6 or 8 percent; whatever the deep state claims inflation to be.

When the prices at dollar tree go from $1.00 to $1.25 that is not eight percent.

And that simply is not the fault of Ron DeSantis.

But if you want to say Governor DeSantis is responsible for congressional spending, I can't stop you.

Trump is the only candidate that has proven he can make us a nation of wealth and prosperity. My point is RDS hasnt done jack for us seniors. Nothing, nada.Disney doesn’t cut it. Don’t care about teachers, schools,woke stuff. RDS hasn’t even discussed monetary policies other than cuts to ss and Medicare. He has been blessed with 24 continuous years of preceding Republican governors and a very friendly legislature. He would not inherit this if he is the candidate /winner in 24. Can he handle this? Don’t know but I do know who can. I’m not a gambler. His time will come, not yet though. Hopefully Trump can get in in 24 and cut a path and RDS can just take over in 28. Put the country on autopilot. Good discussion with you my friend.
