          @George-K the live numbers were actually 900K, anyway. Saw that myself, though I couldn’t listen live.

            Thanks for the link. It was good stuff.

            I am curious what some of our resident DeSantis haters think of the conversation.

            Education is extremely important.

              Here’s a guy who is coherent, disciplined and has thought this through. He can thoroughly articulate his positions. I like him a whole lot more today.

                  I didn't listen (yet), but I watched his interview with Gowdy. It was good.

                    Wow. It would be one thing if the lincoln project presented itself as entertainment punditry. But they want people to believe they are serious historians and thinkers. And millions think of them in exactly that way.

                    I noticed they included my favorite bit of gaslighting from the left. The one where they accuse the right of pushing some bizarre culture war that comes out of nowhere.

                      I don't think he's afraid of Trump. Judging from what I heard today I also think they are flat wrong, and frankly irrelevant.

                            No, they carry a lot of weight in the NAMBLA crowd, and that’s a big enough demographic that Target and the Dodgers are willing to give up their Christian base to try to win…

                              I don’t think DeSantis gives a flying fuck for the poseurs of the Lincoln Project.

                                      Maybe he drives a Foad. I can see the confusion.

                                        Bad news for DeSantis. Continuing his downward trend, DeSantis is down to 19% support among Republicans, vs. 59% for Trump. Pence comes in 3rd place at 8%.

                                          Polls are really kind of meaningless right now. Get back to me after the South Carolina primary...

                                          Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton
