I don't get this logic. There are things I take issue with in Trump, and there are things I take issue with in DeSantis. There are things I take issue with Vivek as well.

But I understand that it is highly likely Thomas and Alito will be getting replaced sometime before 2028. And Sotomayor may be as well. Robert's could very well step down as well (would be nice to replace him with someone better). Imagine the SC with 3 additional Ketanji Brown Jacksons.

Doesn’t matter. Selfish dipshits that refuse to vote for the “other guy” don’t actually care about the health of this nation. They’re just too dedicated to their side. You see the same thing in college sports. People will defend their coach, players, program to the death no matter what.

Biggest hypocrites in the world lie in the Republican swamp. Trump gave them the best appointments of any president, and here they are screaming about him getting the nomination. Frick them all.

I find it comical Ron supporters are forced to enjoy the fruits of DJT and Mitch’s labor yet at the same time, detest them both

Irony at its finest is that your fevered support of Trump ensures a lib majority on the SpCrt 5 years from now.

Right here.

Being the Republican party nominee doesn't make someone a conservative or even qualified to lead this country.

99.9999% of America First/MAGA types would vote for DeSantis, maybe Vivek, possibly Tim Scott? Outside of those R candidates I'm not sure who would be considered an America First type candidate. I don't see huge numbers of America First types voting RFK Jr and I think most would not want RFK Jr as a VP pick for Trump.

I won’t vote for Desantis.

It’s not because I disagree with his stated platform.

It’s because without a true opposition party, this country is dead. That’s what we’ve seen since Obama. The GOPe has become fake opposition. That’s what had led to the major shift left. As such, I’ll never vote for another GOPe candidate.

We have to remake the Republican Party.

No. It’s your fevered opposition of Trump…even as you admitted he’s going to win the nomination.

This would be the only thing that would give me pause about voting for Trump in the general. Sorry, but this would just be a giant FU to conservatives that have supported Trump since 2016.

Ok. Are you happy or not happy with the SC decisions?

If you are happy, but wouldn't vote for DeSantis, would you be unhappy or happy to see Alito and Thomas get replaced by KBJ clones?

This is why you have to vote for the GOP nominee. More than likely will get their judicial picks as recommended by the Federalist Society. They make SOLID recommendations.

The moneyG dude said yesterday that 20% of MAGA won't vote for DeSantis. I think he is right.

I am happy with the decision not because I'm against student loan relief, but because I don't the the president has that much power for what was tried. Using the HEROES act after the outbreak was pretty much done is disingenuous.

I would not be against congress passing something similar, but I know that will never happen. So I'm happy because I believe it rightly limits the presidents power.

But I would never in a million years vote for Trump or DeSantis. I have voted R in the past, but never for these. The Rs are going further to the right, and I would prefer a more moderate candidate from both sides.

“I’ll never vote for desantis because of reasons that I’ve completely made up even thought I agree with his policies”.

Just perfect.

None of that matters. He’s been completely brainwashed cares more about trump than he does America.
