RDS if elected will be GWB-II.
Both social conservatives, both good speech makers (I attended GWB speech from front row seat when he was in Portland-OR), and controlled by their donor class (opposite of MAGA).

If RDS said Trump’s tariffs were not effective, he obviously has no clue how business operates in real world. That is understandable. RDS has never ran a business or worked for a private business.

RDS has never run or worked for a profit making private business. He is no more than a career politician same as Biden or GWB or Obama.
