    DeSantis is not catching the eye of the Left which implies that he is catching the attention of most on the Left and this is false. I can see this guy is an acolyte of Trump and twisted.

    He has been slowly turning away from Trump for some time now.

    What would happen if Joe Biden runs in '24? I can't see him or Harris in there. We need fresh directions in politics.

    No thanks. I already owe @Lanny a steak dinner for my last political bet in here involving Trump. LOL

    Moreover, I don't trust Trump's tactics anymore, so you may end up being right, anyway.

    It's gonna be a shit show. Regardless. We used Trump as an excuse to vote in Joe freaking Biden...

    Honestly.

    Trump was a disgrace. But aside from our voting him out and overcoming his insurrection attempt our response has been a disgrace.

    I think you mean "typical of the spineless democrats who work for the same rich people that the republicans do".

    I knew they weren't going to do jack shit about what he did.

    Trump will run and DeSatanist will be his running mate

    DeSantanist is an acolyte of Trump. He was created by Trump and is only where he is because of Trumps brand of politics which DeSantanist adopted.

    Trump is like Sidious to DeSantist's Darth Maul. It will be no surprise if apprentice turns against his master if he gets the chance. It's the Sith way.

    But, if Trump runs which seems likely, he will kowtow to his master.

    Trump could 'move' back to NY, or to any other state for that matter. But there's zero chance that Trump would actually accept DeSantis as a running mate.

    Because he instinctively knows that DeSantis would have him removed or killed once they were sworn in.

    I was about to say "and vice versa" but I'm not sure. On the one hand, I think DeSantis wants to run in 2024, but on the other, if he can avoid looking like he's crossed Trump he absolutely will, seeing how many of his supporters are Trump supporters first. On the third hand, he's got the example of Pence to see what happens to Trump's VPs.

    Exactly

    They have the same supporters. If he crosses Trump his supporters will jump ship

    I would like to see Kinzinger throw his hat into the race. He appears to be honest, despises Trump and calls out the self serving Republicans like Greene and McCarthy.

    Both Trump and DeSantis live in Florida. There are lots of thunder and lightning storms in Florida. There’s still hope for a clean slate of Republicans.
