View Quote A discerning observer of politics would note that DeS dropped out before his own primary. Which begs the question, Why? I'll tell you why. The Rs of FL were going to curb stomp DeS in the primary. Yes, the very same people that elected DeS as gov. in the first place. Do you believe that the overwhelming number of people who elected DeS are Trump cultists? What does that say about FL politics? Nothing good. DeS dropped out to save his political hide for a future office, perhaps POTUS in 2028. And that's OK. Know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em and all that jazz. He is my favorite at this time for 2028. Unless someone better comes along I will happily vote for him and send $. |

As I've mentioned before, he will do much more for conservatives/right libertarians as Governor than he could possibly achieve as President. He is the right man, in the right place, at the right time. The absolutely massive amount of reform the Federal government needs can only come from state pressure. Furthermore, to make people's lives better the states can have a more immediate and effective influence. Decentralize now, stop making the Presidency a winner take all contest to force will on others, return to Jeffersonian, let the shitlib centralized experiment fail. /media/mediaFiles/sharedAlbum/this-gif-793.gif But we can't underestimate the ability of the Federal machine to power-grab.
