I just heard DeSantis dropped out.
And once again neither party can cough up a candidate who is not an elderly man in steep mental decline.
OK, let’s give it another 4 years.

“DeSantis said Trump has his endorsement ‘because we can’t go back to the old Republican guard of yesteryear – a repackaged form of warmed-over corporatism — that Nikki Haley represents.’”
A statement conveniently left out by other Foxsnooze affiliates including the one in DeSantis’s home town of Jacksonville FL.

The people who left out parts of DeSantis’s self-debasement are trying to preserve at least a shred of DeSantis”s dignity because he’s the most promising Republican governor, and look what he did to himself.
Compared to the Dems who always play the long game (as evidenced by dragging in millions of migrants so that their children wokefy us into the ground 30 years from now), we can’t see 3 seconds into the future. Even if Trump were the magic pill his groupies want him to be, in 10 years he’ll be dead or on a drip. What will we do then?

The thing is that DeSantis could be very useful in a Cabinet post as a policy architect for Trump.
But I would be very surprised (as in “WTF have you been smoking, Donald?”) if any of the Republican challengers were to be the VP candidate.
You’d need to be in Florida to see DeSantis as the Chamber of Commerce candidate, which he is, and that’s why that particular statement stood out.
He’s not wrong about Nimrata, it’s just that DeSantis is the kind of corporatism you’d see in Florida Trend where it’s hidden well among people with similar values.

DeSantis opened up Florida and had reasonable COVID policy while Trump was still inflicting Fauci on us. DeSantis fought wokeness in schools when Trump did nothing. DeSantis had no BLM riots to speak of while Trump let the BLM destroy the country with complete impunity. So which one is the more of a Chamber of Commerce candidate?

Like seriously. The frequency with which people whip out the sad old embassy line shows how little else they have.
Remember that prison reform bill? The one that put druglords back on the streets? Because it was supposed to bring a huge upswing in black votes? That was funny.

“DeSantis had no BLM riots to speak of …”
Huh … so we were totally imagining what was going down at the mall on Biscayne Boulevard and near the Miami-Dade central cop shop.
Right.

Don’t try to bullshit me about events where I was physically in the area nearby.
What do you think got us to leave Miami for rural North Florida in the first place?
A sudden need for colder weather? :-)

I recall they tried it in FL, in the big cities where the admin was sympathetic, but it never reached the scale or duration it did in big cities elsewhere, and IIRC the state passed along some ugly threats to those municipalities if they didn’t get it under control. I still wouldn’t live in Miami or Tampa or St. Pete. I expected JAX would try that, but never heard a peep from there. Did they?
