Most likely a Democrat for the next few terms.
Trump has poisoned the well for the GOP. Just look at the sorry likes of Cruz, Desantis, Cotton, Josh Hawley, Tucker Carlson, and Lindsey Graham. Each one would cut the throat of any and all of the others. The same with Trump. If Trump is alive, vertical, and still running around loose his ego and narcissism and need for conning people out of their savings will force him to run again...a spoiler. Everything he touches goes to manure.

You call people names because you don't agree with their politics or policies, tell me, what makes dems so much better?

I watched as they tore down whole cities, burned them to the ground, defaced government properties....actually shot people, blocked traffic, hurled bricks and urine filled bottles at officers....and then you have the nerve to make this statement? You need to brush up on what is actually happening in the world....and who is behind all of this hate....instead of calling people names like a five year old, because they have a different belief system then yours.

One dirty cop makes the whole entire force look bad, well so do people who call others names, burn down cities and riot to prove their point, why? Because the truth eludes them, they only see and believe what they want to....and yet, they are the problem
Obnoxious behavior cost Trump the election. He even tried to tone it down in the second debate. Having people think you're an ******* only works for a minority of voters.

While I agree that his obnoxious behavior didn't help, his inability to handle the COVID crisis was the kiss of death for him.

True

Having an obnoxious and divisive President doesn't work well when facing a national crisis.

DeSantis is simply AWESOME!

He is extremely intelligent and deals with the media the way they should be, yet he does not have the personality defect Trump has.

No. They will be dropping the building next to the debris pile so they can then proceed with the search in areas they can't currently because of fear of the building failing on them.

As others have said, he supports most of the policies that Trump did, but isn’t quite as toxic and polarizing. If he does run in 2024, he can probably attract voters who don’t like the Democrats but just couldn’t bring themselves to vote for Trump.
Exactly. I couldn't and wouldn't vote for Trump (not Hilary or Biden either), but I will vote as many times as I can get away with for DeSantis.

Exactly my thoughts. I almost try to dislike Trump because, honestly, he's somewhat of a jerk, but I can't. Every time I hear him speak he makes more and more sense.

But my goodness, almost anybody would be better than what we have now. People saying "Well, that's Joe" are getting a little old.

He handled the Covid crisis pretty well - the vaccines were developed under his watch and with his persistence. And he was probably less divisive than the current administration. I suppose opinion on what is divisive is a matter of perspective though.

didn't cost Trump anything....
I guess you haven't viewed the turn outs at any of his rallies. There is no way Bidon won no way in hell. The truth will come out....
