    I don't know a lot about DeSantis, but I assume all politicians are products of what they think their voters want. I would prefer him to Trump, for sure. The cultural baggage of Trump isn't worth it.

    Education is extremely important.

      Saturday Night Live has really gone downhill of late.

      I was only joking

        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.

                    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?

                                Gov. DeSantis is trying to walk a thin line - show that he is different from President Trump, but also not attack him directly.

                                    I think that VP Pence is trying to the same as Gov DeSantis - let people know that he is different from Pres. Trump without making Pres. Trump fans too mad.

                                    Pres. Biden - Haven't heard what he has said on the subject.

                                      I'm sorry, I was unclear.

                                      I was referring to DeSantis' comment about how he would be in a world of hurt had he taken classified documents off-site. He was, as you point out, referring to Trump.

                                      Why didn't he comment on Pence and Biden?
