Baloney. The Democrats are on the ropes, facing losses greater than what they got in 1994, and will "come out in full force" against whoever runs for the Republican ticket.

Trump's long campaign to point out how biased and disingenuous their allies in the media are, is bearing fruit as fewer and fewer people are realizing that the Democrats never deliver what they promise and keep up an agenda that just doesn't work.

And Democrat have no more defense against it now, than they did in 2016-2020... because it's as true now as it was then.



??

It doesn't matter who runs under the "R" the Democrats and their propaganda media machine will go to work on that person and grind them into the mud.



You are right, the Dems are on the ropes right now and we still have 3 more years of this circus. The question is what will the Dems do between now and then to ensure they can push mass mail in voting which is ripe for fraud? It is not looking good for them in 2022 so handing a vote to the estimated 22 million illegal aliens has a slim chance even if another variant of the covid pops up.

The running average for Florida deaths....right now....is 0.09 per 100,000.....48 states are higher....Florida has the second lowest death rate in the entire country

Again, why would you think one day in a two-year pandemic is indicative of anything? Great, we are not several weeks into a surge right now. Obviously the numbers are going to be low. People aren't going to forget all of their parents and grandparents who died over the summer/fall just because the virus ebbed in January.

I mean, we could pick any arbitrary point in time for each state and say it was doing amazing or horrible. You have to look at the whole picture.

Second, FL has the highest population of people over 65 in the nation which stands to reason that Covid deaths would be increased.
Third, DeSantis was out there protecting civil rights and speaking out against the draconian authoritarian mob rule of mandates that don't work.

Your governor mandated and ruled CA population, and insulted them all by not following his own rules. He's a hypocrite.

Florida did it right.
People are flocking to Florida for a governor who might not even be governor in another year? LMAO Nothing at all to do with the weather, right?

We have about another 1-1/2 years to go before the pandemic is endemic. Don't count your chickens yet.

Once this whole 'thing' is over and we start counting the other people who died as result of the shut downs, from the economy, government over reach... the children mentally affected, the social ills born from isolation, the businesses that ended ... it will be revealed how short sighted blue state panic was.

Patience grasshopper.

Might, could, maybe, etc…, doesn’t mean anything, and Florida weather hasn’t changed. Many have full confidence in him winning since he’s a wonderful Governor and helps make Florida a great and refreshing place to live, especially compared to the shut it down folks and Governors.

The Left will even smear lies about your wife, children or any family member. No lies are off the table with them. Only fools belive their evil lies.

****************************************

Forty-sixth governor
January 8, 2019 to present

A native Floridian with blue-collar roots, Ron DeSantis worked his way through Yale University, where he graduated with honors and was the captain of the varsity baseball team. He also graduated with honors from Harvard Law School. While at Harvard, he earned a commission in the U.S. Navy as a JAG officer. During his active-duty service, he supported operations at the terrorist detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba and deployed to Iraq as an adviser to a U.S. Navy SEAL commander in support of the SEAL mission in Fallujah, Ramadi and the rest of Al Anbar province. His military decorations include the Bronze Star Medal for meritorious service and the Iraq Campaign Medal.

After active-duty service, Ron DeSantis served as a federal prosecutor, where he targeted and convicted child predators. He still serves in the U.S. Navy Reserve. He was first elected to Congress in 2012, as the U.S. Representative for Florida’s Sixth District, where he fought for term limits, the No Budget/No Pay Act, and to cut taxes. While serving in Congress, he refused his Congressional pension and health insurance plan because he is against special deals for politicians. He also sponsored legislation to make it easier for the military to prosecute sexual assault and authored the bill to end the secret taxpayer-funded slush fund for members of Congress to make hush payoffs for sexual harassment.

Governor DeSantis is married to Casey DeSantis, an Emmy Award-winning television host. Together, they are the proud parents of their daughter, Madison, and their son, Mason.

He's a rock star. And he has a great personality on top of it.

You see DID (DeSantis Insanity Disorder) from numerous posters on this very forum.
The democrats hate anyone who speaks the truth.

Totalitarians always have to rely upon censorship and restriction of speech and individual rights to gain power for themselves.

Democrats are the totalitarians of our time; even former liberals have expressed concern over the fascist over- reaches of the democrats. When we have the FBI seeking to silence parents when they express concern over the teaching of marxist CRT in our schools, we have a HUGE problem with big government.

DeSantis cruises for an easy win and then take stock on what 2024 looks like. He'll make his move IF he think it's time. The man's only 43 - he's got time on his side.

But I tell you this - I cannot WAIT for this man to be President of the United States someday. He'll rock this country back to greatness so fast that the liberal's heads will be a-spinning.

In the meantime, I'll watch DeSantis serve as the most awesome governor of the most awesome state.
Agree.

I think he might wait because of his wife's cancer. I really hope she is ok. Because she is young, they maybe just treating her really aggressively...or...because she is young, she might have a more aggressive cancer. They are very private about it which is their right.
