Anyone else who can vote for DeSantis in a way that they just couldn't for Trump?
Posted by CAPEX on 2/3/23 at 10:26 pm1348
I strongly dislike Trump. I can’t stand the man. If he's on the ballot, I'm probably going to vote for anyone else.
But I have fairly conservative views on most issues from illegal immigration, race, affirmative action, and trans issues, BlackLivesMatter (I hated how every organization seemed to worship George Floyd - some organizations put up statues of him) and climate change (I don’t know why a 15-year-old girl was propped up to be a climate change ‘activist’). The only issues I’m left-wing on is abortion but that’s not an issue that affects me personally.
I still can't understand why there needs to be an AP African-American studies that teaches about reparations. They already get preferential treatment in hiring, college admissions and now they have the nerve to beg for reparations. Absolute joke.
So DeSantis is a better candidate. I’m sick and tired of how race is brought into everything, I’m sick of illegal immigration, and I’m sick and tired of how Democrats demonize wealthier voters as a college-educated recent graduate who works on wall street. I hate that academia is so caught up with diversity that they don’t seem to realize that they’ve alienated over half the country.
DeSantis is a much better candidate in my opinion. As long as he doesn’t tweet anything crazy and he’s relatively sane, he has my support in a way that Trump just didn’t. I’m confident there are millions of people out there that will vote for DeSantis that just couldn’t vote for Trump.
Rant over.

It’s what you said but also the core competency to lead a party to legislative accomplishments as well as executive fiat.
Trump could do one, but not the other.
Desantis has shown the ability to do both.

Wat? How often do you investigate where your tax dollars go?

You’re too emotional to take anything else beyond this seriously. Trump did a lot of good. He’s also had a metric frick ton of missteps.

Like restricting the travel of US Citizens?
I like Ron, and will vote for him.
I just want to use that instance as a barometer to judge your objectivity.

Not a fan of Trumps personality. Luckily I do not vote based on that. I vote based on policy. Desantis is a better option than Trump is, but if Trump ends up the GOP bid against the Dems I certainly will be voting for him a third time. How anyone can think this current admin is even acceptable is unbelievable.

Then why the hell would you vote for Trump more than once?

Sure. He’s the executive of state flooding with tourists and charged with keeping the state safe in an unprecedented pandemic.
He owed nothing to citizens of other states.
Hindsight is 20/20 but I have no problem with his decision at the time it was made.
Let the federal courts overrule his decision in the moment if need be.

Trump's policies are better than any Democrats.
I don't like Trump either and will be voting DeSantis in the primary but let's not kid ourselves into thinking a Democrat would have better policies.

Yeah I can see how that would be the case. Because you’re so levelheaded and reserved and contemplative. And he’s just too much for your more refined style to process. That’s actually the case with most same situations with others here. Y’all are stable and he’s a nutty knee-jerker who’s outraged at some thing about probably 7 times a day. And is always so sure he’s right, he acts as if he’s some sort of doctor or professor billionaire businessman when he actually ain’t shite. And y’all actually are those things.

Can you explain?

Leave your emotions on the outside of the voter booth and bring your wallet with you. Now vote accordingly. Many dislike Trump the person but you vote based on policies. This is why we have a pedophile in office. Too many now must reap what they sow.

Favoring RDS over Trump may be the right call, but not supporting Trump should he be the nominee is irrational if you “have fairly conservative views on most issues.”

You don't think this adversely affected floridian constituents who depend on out of state tourists?
