Politicians should not profit from office in any way aside from their official salary. However, I still supported my governor because he was an effective leader.

Americans will never regain the powers that we gave to politicians without drastic actions.

In my opinion, writing books should be held off until the politician is no longer serving in office.

That said, DeSantis is the future of the Republican party once the Republican party realizes Trump is an anchor around their throats.

I will be a great informative read I'm sure.

I LOVE the "The Courage to Be Free delivers something no other politician's memoir has before: stories of victory" part. Absolutely perfect and accurate.
So we should dig up Kennedy and slap him around?

Trump will destroy him with his childish name-calling. It'll be great and also a loss to American exceptionalism. Obviously Trumpy will turn it into a circus. Besides, does DeSantis poll well outside the extreme right-wing?

Get the book our first. Plenty of time to run and hopefully democrats keep Iowa and New Hampshire primary locations, which will help Desantis.

Extreme right wing? How did you come up with that? You think 60% of Floridians are extreme right wing? Florida is a very socially-diverse state.

Governor DeSantis is especially popular with parents with school aged children..

Desantis and diversity do not mix. He is more of an authoritarian governor. No thanks. He will not do well in the rest of the country.

Is crow a favorite meal of yours?

He's not authoritarian, in fact just the opposite is true .... he's a follow the rule of law governor. Authoritarians are above the law, make the law, ignore the law, none of which he's done or capable of doing.

Biden is an authoritarian.
