    you seem to fail to grasp the concept of mocking.

    I'm sure he wants you to go through the list of things he "did", pick the ones that you dislike the least, and yep, those are the same ones he loves!

    Personally, I don't care what he likes, or dislikes. One thing's for sure, Biden ain't doing a blessed thing for me. Moreover, I don't see anyone in the Democratic party stepping up to assume the mantle. As mentioned in here a number of times, I won't be voting for Trump. If it's him vs. the Democratic nominee, I may just abstain. Clearly, I hope DeSantis gets the nod. If Trump somehow gets elected, this country may very well be headed towards martial law.

    Serious question......you don't see the same type of threat from DeSantis if he' is elected?? The man has made it clear that he views the entire world through a political lens, and he bends over backwards to cancel anyone and everyone who disagrees with him. This is a guy you can get behind???

    I see DeSantis not even to close to the volatile, childish, and prideful nature that is Trump. I've learned over time that demeanor definitley makes a difference.

    The difference is DeSantis actually believes in the shit Trump is espousing. Trump is just an egotistical clown putting on a show. DeSantis believes in the hateful rhetoric of the far right and seeks to make it reality. Trump just wants to be liked. Trump is a demon jester. DeSantis is the devil.

    I couldn't agree more. And that is exactly why DeSantis scares me far more than Trump. DeSantis is deadly serious about what he is doing, he doesn't care what anyone thinks, he has NO sense of humor and far, far worse, he has some actual intelligence. None of that bodes well for the future of the majority in this country. The man is an American Putin waiting to happen.

    The devil? Hmmm...strong words. Me thinks you're buying into the liberal media a bit too much. Could just be me, though.

    Exactly, DeSantis isn't doing it because of some ego complex. He's doing it because he believes in it.

    DeSantis is going to bide his time though. Trump will run again in 2024. As long as he does, DeSantis won't run. They share too many supporters. He can just win re-election in Florida and wait Trump out.

    If Trump decides to run and is then charged for crimes connected to January 6th, and becomes inelligble to run, which is possible, DeSantis will step in.

    At this point, if Trump runs he will run unapposed on the right because the other potential candidates are cowards. (Well I could see Cheney running against him as she has nothing to lose now). DeSantis though will wait behind the curtain to strike until Trump is not running one way or the other.

    And Trump's tax cuts for the wealthiest 1% will save them twice that.

    I'd rather we don't give the ultrarich tax cuts and spend that on improving infrastructure for all Americans.

    Not quite sure of your descriptions of those. I do think he is being liked/loved more and more by minorities.

    I lean toward that solution, as well.
