Trump vs. DeSantis

Governor DeSantis is currently on a foreign tour of Japan, South Korea, Israel, and UK.
I had to laugh at the part of the article:
QUOTE
The governor is spending this week abroad on an international trade mission that will also take him to South Korea, Israel, and the United Kingdom. The trip will give him an opportunity to expand his foreign policy chops — which are typically a smaller part of a governor's portfolio.
UNQUOTEExplain to me how a 1 week tour of four foreign countries will increase his foreign policy skills? As someone who has been involved in this, he will fly in, meet some "important" people, shake some hands, get some photos taken, give a talk, maybe sign a few papers, etc. and then leave. The odds of him really "seeing" any parts of these countries is about zero.
I am sure his handlers (and maybe even himself) thinks this will be good for his foreign policy skills, but it is kind of laughable.
(I know that Gov. DeSantis is not the only politician that does this. And I laugh at the others also.)

What it actually does is let a few foreign folk know that he exists, so that when he runs for President their initial reaction isn't "Who?".

GOP mega donor billionaire: definitely not Trump, now maybe also not DeSantis.

Huffpo still exists?

Trump's very first TV spot of the 24 election season.
Saturday Night Live has really gone downhill of late.

First thing I noticed in that Trump campaign screed was the narrator’s voice. Same folksy cadence and timbre of Ronald Reagan.
No doubt intentional.

And the Democrats continue to smile and rub their hands, hoping that President Trump is the Republic candidate.
-
They better rub their hands and hope Biden is not the Demonrat nominee.
But I think they are working on that...

Made me like DeSantis a little more…
But as to the quality of the ad… Seriously? Of all the potential Sci-Fi futures we could have selected have we really decided on Idiocracy?

So on one side we have a guy that was good friends with Jeffrey Epstein (called him a terrific guy), supports Disney and their grooming ways, and not only argues against the Bud Light boycott, but is an investor and has tried to promote Anheuser Busch… A guy that shut down the United States for months and allowed the most basic and fundamental rights to be taken away for many weeks on the advice of Fauci. A guy the swamp he railed about take the reins of the country for months in the middle of a crisis.
On the other side we have a decorated Naval Officer that served 3 successful terms in the House, and then successfully led one of the largest states in the nation through COVID by adhering to certain principles, most notably that in the middle of an emergency is when you most have to respect our fundamental rights. He has adroitly and compassionately removed CRT (which prospered under the Trump/DeVos Education Department) and trans idealogy (which prospered under the Trump/Azar Health and Human Services…How many kids transitioned between 2017 and 2021?)…
How is this even a question?
