I know it's been mentioned before, I know I'm wary of the Yale education but think he's probably our best option after Trump. Here is John Doyle with his opinion.

I don't trust any politician. Remember Sessions? He was trusted by a lot of people, but then immediately stepped back after he took over the DOJ, and allowed the FBI, doj,cia,nsa to run unchecked over trump, trump's other cabinet members, trump's family members.

Much like I felt about Trump, I go into it with high hopes but expect the worst. With Trump, conservatives finally found someone who did exactly what he said he was going to do. And, I didn’t agree with everything he wanted to do, but he was honest about it and did exactly what he said he would do.

Not very well known but smart guy. Would you like me to find Cardi B for ya lol

One of the better points in the video is that control factor. I don't think anyone is going to go against the system like Trump

What we need most is someone who will fight. Who will not be bought off by the establishment.

Desantis has some establishment roots, which is a concern.

But who else is there?

Trump was one of a kind. There isn't anyone else like him.

I fear whoever we nominate will bend the knee like all republicans do.

Yes.

He combines Trump policies and the MAGA platform with discipline, institutional knowledge, competency and the appropriate amount of aggressiveness.

He's the best possible candidate the GOP has for 2024.

At this point it is either Trump or DeSantis. Not really any other options to speak of. I like General Flynn, but he won't be able to win. Tucker Carlson is another name that has been talked about. Allen West if he were to win Gov in TX.

Sessions was telling Trump that he needed to fire Comey and all of his associates on day one immediately after the inauguration as he could not be trusted after the Hillary debacle where he tried to play both sides.

But no, Trump thought he knew more about the swamp than a US Senator with 20 years of experience and actually thought it was a good idea to keep Comey around and they could deal in good faith with him.

Sessions confirmed this last year btw and no one from the Trump admin or campaign bothered to dispute that. Not even a peep.

This is where the problem is with so many in the GOP.

So exactly what we had in Trump.

Big concern for me.

Rush said it often before his passing The reason Trump was so hard to “knock off” politically was because he was not built (in the political sense) by the media or by the political establishment, built himself with his own brand and was villainized because they couldn’t knock him down.

I’m 99.9% sure this will happen.

According to my former state rep buddy in Florida, they are all bought off.

Starts the moment they get elected.

No fundraising, no good committee appointments.

DC is fricked. No where near what our white supremacy founders intended.

Sad.

A reset must happen eventually. Hopefully before it’s too late.

I'll have to wait and see on Desantis. Can't tell if his demeanor is genuine or if he's trying to ride Trump's coattails. Time will tell. I wasn't sure about candidate Trump, but President Trump was a badass who delivered.

Seems to be an RNC problem then?

Didn’t read all this. Answer is never trust a politician. If they aren’t crooked going in they will be shortly
