DeSantis is the furthest thing from a RINO, just look at everything he has already got accomplished and he isn't stopping. He's now taking on the teachers union there by making them lose their pension teaching license if they teach any form of DEI.
No doubt.

@Sheik Why are you that down on Desantis? I'm as disgusted with McCain (politically) and Romney as you. Romney turns my stomach and I still can't believe he was the R candiate that year. But Desantis isn't either of those guys. Not even close.

It will really be sickening if we get more Biden style garbage because a portion of red America sits out the election. Either Trump or Desantis or anyone on our side is better than the radical Left that has taken over the Dem party.

Just my take, DeSantis has taken far more action against several woke issues (such as with Disney, CRT, sexual/trans indoctrination in schools, transing the kids, the DEI crap in college education, defund the police) than Trump ever did. That's big. Obviously managed a thriving economy in Florida (it was already very good, but still.).
A leader who can and will push back against this absolute woke insanity that is infecting our country, lead a good economy and restore competence to the WH is an absolute must. Also temperament matters.
With the tension growing between the US and Russia and China going to need a POTUS that is tough, but smart. Disciplined.
I trust Ron D more than Don T or Biden there.

I’m not sure. I can’t point to any one thing that turned me off of him.

I’ve mentioned above, my intense hate for RINOs is a large part of it. I watched Trump’s surprisingly conservative agenda be thwarted by assholes like Ryan, McCain, Romney etc. for 4 years.

He’s the only President in my lifetime that has actually kept campaign promises. To see his own party turn on him because of democrat tantrums and media pressure, it’s pretty sickening.

Open border republicans like the aforementioned, those are exactly the types that are flocking to DeSantis. There has to be a reason for that. If DeSantis plans to govern like Trump, which is what he’s tried to do, going after woke ideology and shipping off illegals to other places than Florida, what exactly is the difference?

Is it because his name is different? Or is it something else? My gut tells me it’s something else. He’s not independently wealthy, he doesn’t have “fuck you money”. You have to wonder who has him by the purse strings.

that's absurd but it does make him look a little weak. people who disagree with you are allowed to buy your book. let them in and kick them out if they make a disturbance.
I would kick every goddamn kook ass motherfucker that showed up in a MAGA hat.

You know damn good and well those people couldn't control themselves.

This is exactly right. You can't bitch about big Tech censoring people and then do it yourself.
