1. No politician, especially at that level is squeaky clean.

2. If by chance he was it wouldn’t matter. The Dems and media have no problem making up complete false stories to derail the opposition

He’s just sucking up because DeSantis is walking on water right now. Jeb backed Putnam, a true gope pos, in the primary against DeSantis. I think you’re worrying about nothing.

Hes better than Trump in that he is also conservative. He is a very proud Rush supporter and as Rush said, if there were honorary graduates for the Limbaugh institute of higher learning, DeSantis would be one.

Limbaugh also said there are no graduates because no one ever stops learning.

As long as he is not a neocon, I am all in. I think he is as close to Trump as we are going to get.

the video

of course he is going to be pro Trump though.

they all put on pro Trump acts to win.

anything is better then Biden.

DeSantis is for Jeb's education, I can live with that. Florida's politics are complicated. Where does DeSantis stand on on Afghanistan and ending all the fake wars?

Seriously, does anyone know?

Also would he pick Nikki Haley, or Romney as VP? We always get strapped with a swamp VP it seems...

It’s easier to be “philosophically pure” when you’ve never really done anything outside the realm of politics. That’s not a criticism of Desantis, but I can’t say it’s not a tad bit of concern either. I’d likely vote for him over just about anybody else currently holding an office, though.

I judge Desantis on what he’s done, not what he’s said and his track record is impressive. In a world where the simplest actions to not destroy people’s lives has been foregone to keep up a political narrative designed to gradually take over total control of your freedoms, Desantis has been the rare, common sense politician that does what is best for individual freedoms and the people.

And, like Trump, he’s smarter than the left, and outmaneuvers them when they try to set him up for a fall (60 minutes hit job for example).

This stick you have is becoming annoying and it's not rooted in reality.

DeSantis is the anti-Jeb in Florida and took down the Establishment heir apparent when he ran for governor.

He won in Florida because Trump endorsed him, not the other way around. I'm sure the guy's not perfect, but if you liked how Trump ran the country you'd be a fool to vote for anybody else if he runs in 2024. I know running a state isn't the same thing as running a country, but right now he's Trump without Trump's weaknesses.

He’s been phenomenal. I can’t understand cajunangelle’s aingst about him. The absolute best hope for the Republican party going forward. HANDS DOWN!!!

why do they need to do that when they can just create bogus ballots like last time?

You'll notice that didn't happen in Florida this time.

Trump didn't endorse him in the primary where he was the underdog.

My understanding was that Trump did endorse him in the primary which pushed him ahead of the establishment favorite and leading Republican candidate at the time.

I hope he is what he appears to be, but...

I got downvoted to oblivion for suggesting that a while back. He is Ivy League...
quote:

He graduated from Yale in 2001 with a B.A. magna cum laude in history.[11] He then spent a year as a history teacher at the Darlington School.[12] DeSantis then attended Harvard Law School, graduating in 2005 with a Juris Doctor cum laude.[13][14]
