Why these people keep talking about DeSantis running for President in 2024 is not helping the Governor at all. In Florida we want another DeSantis term and out there telling the world DeSantis will run in 2024 is letting the Democrats tell Floridians that DeSantis cares more for DC than for our state. There are Democrats running with that statement in ads, especially Charlie Crist. I think people like Griffin know this and are throwing Florida under the bus along with DeSantis AND Trump.

That is about my age. It’s too old to be President. Even if he’s healthy when elected, physical and mental problems can occur at any time at that age.

My concern about Trump is his age.
He will be 78 in 2024.
Even older than Biden in 2020.


Unlike Biden, who showed clear signs of mental impairment before his presidential run, Trump seems to be fine. I'd have no concerns about that.

While I like Desantis and would be happy to support him I don’t understand what it means to ‘move on’. Without Trump the Republicans would be out in Left field pandering to the MSM and their Leftist overlords.

“The strength of an argument can’t be bought.”

And neither can PDJT by big bucks “mega-donors.”

That’s why he’s persona non grata with the Deep State, and one of many reasons why he has my support.

“I’m leaving Trump for DeSantis...”

and this is the whole problem with the DeSantis people because there will be sore losers when DeSantis is not the candidate for the WH who will not vote for Trump. The left, they love it. They know it.

Trump needs a solution to his personnel problems. That is where he has gone awry and stayed there. He’s had limits due to black balling, and threats to candidates, but even towards the end he was having issues, if lessened. So many people leaving in flames, some of them good people and others people who should never have been hired on.

Does he have that figured out?

And no better way to say thank you from Trump than calling him
“desanctimoneous”. Seems to me with remarks like that Trump is goading desantis to run against him.

Whatever. Trump is about to crush the mid-terms. He will do the same in 2024.

Agreed!

If he was truly serious about 2028 he would state it lodly and clearly and constantly that he is not running in 2024 if Trump runs.

The fact that he is not doing this just makes me distrust him.

It makes him look like a darn politician rather than a potential leader.

Griffin is half bird and half Lion but in this
case half jackass and half bird.

Recent poll Trump 70 percent Desantis below
20 percent. I voted for Desantis and hope
he is on the Trump ticket in 2024. But I would
not be disappointed to have him stay as our
Gov. in Florida for 4 more years. He is
doing a good job getting rid of Dems.
Miami Dade is now a red county.

Trump has a very impressive list of enemies, most of them are worthless RINOs like W and Paul Ryan. Either Trump or MTG are fine with me.

I think Lake is the better choice that Desantis. I never got a “warm fuzzy” about Desantis. I smell establishment residue on Desantis.

*********************************************************

That’s why you’d want to have a vibrant, strong, assertive, fighter as your running mate such as DeSantis or Kari Lake.
