Why was Cruz in the damn victory parade? What has he to do with the team? Not player, coach, broadcaster, owner. Fuck, probably not even fan.
...the owner likely supports his campaigns or some such shit and he is a self proclaimed "diehard Houstonian" since he grew up there. Also, Texass. https://www.houstoniamag.com/news-and-city-life/senator-ted-cruz-childhood-in-houston
Trump with the grade school, "mine's bigger than yours!" It's going to be so much fun watching these two douchebags go after each other.
Hmmmm....I don't know. I'm not sure Trump would want another alpha male dog next to him. I've heard it would be Kari Lake. It wouldn't surprise me if DeSantis holds out until 2028.
I can't help but feel like something about the DeSantis hype is artifical. To get the voting base out of the woods and into more conventional politics, basically a reboot to post Reagan conservative values and all that. Not sure how it'll work out in the end. So many people who vote R are in it for Trump alone. Bridging that gap with Ron will take a lot on his part, otherwise he's going to be a Romney tier candidate.
I'm not too worried about DeSantis. He's basically Al Gore, suits the base just fine but comes off as a smug dick to those that aren't in full agreement on the issues. Anti-charismatic. barfo
Trump is done politically. That may be a relief to many, but I've not talked to any conservative nor heard any pundit who doesn't want to move on from trump.
I don't think people understand what the pandemic did to demographics in certain lax on mandate states. Besides, he was running against an AI generated candidate. I agree, Trump had the ear of way more people with his foolishness. Nobody wants sensible DeSantis talking about the issues wearing 7 layers of body armor. I vaguely remember an article that said he didn't even enjoy campaigning. They're going to market this guy as a firebrand conservative, but he's a total introvert.
