We might as well support Trump, because he is going to run even if he were to somehow lose the primary. There is no scenario where he doesn’t run.

So it’s either support him and maybe win, or don’t support him and 100% lose.

I really wish this were not the case and Trump had not chosen to run again and had thrown his support behind DeSantis. If that had happened we would of won in 2024 easily.

It makes no sense to endorse someone who is not running.

Why not endorse Santa Claus? He’s done far more for mankind.

The insights from Congressman Greg Steube are particularly revealing.

Those without TDS knew this all along — Trump is the right choice, and that DeSantis is a facile, Establishment alternative.

Trump has the support of millions. DeSantis has the supports of thousands. ‘Nuff said.

I live in Florida. Think DeSantis has been a good Governor. Better than most past Florida governors. But, not my first choice for President at this time.

I live in Florida. My family is very politically active in our state. As a career military vet I am in touch with a great many veterans in the state and am active at the state-level American Legion and VFW.
One thing never discussed in the political news likely because they are not connected to this community in any way and unaware is, the level of disdain a great many Florida vets have for Governor Desantis. This is due to a series of campaign ads he ran trying to become governor the first time.
He ran TV ads and saturated the mailboxes all across Florida with ads associating himself with the SEALs. It was very obvious to the vets he was attempting to allude to Floridian civilians who know little about such things that he wanted those ads to give the impression he was a SEAL without actually saying he was. Vets reacted quite negatively to that saturation Ad Campaign. They referred to Desantis as that Jag Lawyer MF’er. And, accused him of a quasi-Stolen Valor ad campaign. To this day a great many have not forgotten those ads.

I would like Ron DeSanis to run and do well but lose the primary vote. I want to keep him in Florida so long as his term lasts. He also needs the experience of mounting a presidential campaign Regan ran and lost once before he ran and won. And. If Trump meets with a fatal “accident” during the primary campaign then I would prefer Ron to anyone else who is in with the possible exception of Ramaswami, who has announced and running but has not even managed to get mentioned in MSM.
