DeSantis... does not even rate as one that should be thought of and certain never one that should be considered.

Being a governor is good preparation for the office. Hopefully either one would do a decent job.

Thank you for that rational response. Would you rate their bio's in the original post? Thanks

It doesn't matter how. Indictments, Election Rigging, Trump being forced to bow out but pretending it's on his own accord, If Trump is not the republican nominee or running as third party I will be voting the democrat candidate period. **** Desantis.

DeSantis is not a great choice. But I know he's better than Newsom.

Who's a better governor? and who'd make a better president? Newsome or DeSantis?
The one you managed to spell correctly.

This country is ungovernable. Neither these two nor anyone else can do a good job. The best they can do is take the job and use the office to fatten themselves and their buddies. Meanwhile the party that is not in the WH does everything they can to undermine the guy who is President.

It's hopeless.

Everything about Desantis screams “bush league”.
Billionaire heir Gordon Getty owned, with other investors, the Mt. Eden Winery.

Then Getty bought out the other investors in Mt. Eden Winery.

Then Getty, who is like a second father to Newsom, brought in Gavin Newsom (the son of his best friend, Judge William Newsom) and his own son Billy Getty (who, IIRC, was named in honor of Gavin's father), and they founded the PlumpJack Group.

The PlumpJack Group was founded in 1992. By 1996, Newsom was elected to The SF Board of Supervisors, which is the legislative body for the City and County of San Francisco.
