Nice try, Steve. A certain Florida governor has adopted a "say and do everything the America First voters want on the domestic front ---while placating the arms dealers on foreign policy" approach. This certainly will keep his ambitions well financed....but.... there's a teeny catch: it will lead to World War Three.

Appreciate your attempt to play both sides...just don't tell us it's a blessing for all of us.

Sorry not convincing to equate Trump with DeSantis, especially given the sneaky way he is conducting his campaign and the Koch money he is reportedly taking.

Then, too, vital questions linger over the international policies DeSantis would follow. But it's fair to suspect they would dovetail more with the Club for Growth and Mitch McConnell than Trump and Rand Paul.

Most of all: why the rush by DeSantis to compete in in 2024? To reuse a poetic cliche "you cannot force the spring". The suspicion can only be that large anti-Trump donors need a pretty face as a front for their anti-America First interests, and have realized that Pence et al. are dead at the starting line and have seduced DeSantis with blandishments. In their eyes, having Trump win would be worse than a Democrat, and they are willing to risk splitting the party to achieve their goal.

You are free to abandon your purported loyalty to Trump (unlike J. D. Vance) and pal around with Trump-bashing Matthew Tyrman as he puts James O'Keefe through a six-hour struggle session, but don't expect the Warroom posse, including me, to join you in blowing kisses to DeSantis.

The qualifying issues will hopefully reveal themselves in time. I’m also concerned about DeSantis’ funding. I would be much happier if we had a reliable cohesive RNC.

I don’t trust Ron at all. RINOs endorse him and he is funded by Wall St money. Why is he rushing into it for 2024? Just sit this one out and let Trump retake the office that was stolen from him in 2020.

Well said. Great perspective. Thoughtful narrative. I just love reading this. It is a breath of fresh air; a big inhale after so much nose-holding. Thank you. It is encouraging and positive. We need this!

DeSantis is a voice of reason in the cultural spell of chaos that our ‘betters’ have created. This chaos seems to have more traction than it deserves because of the capture that corporate America is under by those (ideologues) who are (presently) processing their gains by further intimidation. DeSantis is enguard with a sword that is demystifying EMG, CRT, etc, putting opposition off balance, and carving his Z on the shirt pockets of the arrogant bastards who have thought they Are the law, or above.

God Bless DeSantis and his patriotic pulpit -- and let’s give him the benefit of the doubt regarding the future of Florida’s security. Thank God it’s him and not Newsom governing 90 miles from Cuba - otherwise the CCP would have the Havana harbor by 2028, as well as (presently) the Panama Canal, And, the Mexican cartels On Our Border ! -- That’s the deal Biden would make to retrieve the pension money from the CCP and their ‘Silk Road initiatives, or not.

DeSantis has not yet been through the maze of betrayal, theft, and other high crime ‘dress downs’ so yukedly ‘weaponized’ by the ‘deep’ state alphabet supers. They must be so proud of themselves. Like the fat bastards that think they can escape (consequences of) the sacrifice of another mere 100B$ in Ukraine like they did in Afghanistan.

Not everyone knows this, but Florida has a ‘sulphur’ water that is uniquely soft with a taste most newcomers would want filtered. Well, ok, All want filtered ! But that water, if indeed locally sourced, has a ‘taste’, variously described as derived from eggs (outdated?), and medicinal. That includes ‘fountain’ drinks.

Governor DeSantis and President Trump are braced by the healing properties of Florida water and air. Both are in need of further healing, even as they bring healing to us from ‘something in the water.’

The woke fevers are breaking even as the demons that brought them are being exposed.

It’s ‘last call’ for the Biden DUI, DOJ, FBI, Fed.

For America First, it’s one for the road - to victory. The fever’s broke

Ron DeSantis knows in 2024 the war in Ukraine will be over and whatever he says now will be countered by the reality on the ground.

Your caution about WWIII is well made. If it causes DeSantis to to reconfigure his support for the ‘military industrial complex’ agenda, and their support for him, it will be a breath of fresh air. The difference I see is that WWIII is so immanent by ‘slow Joe’s’ hand, DeSantis is using the momentum even of otherwise nefarious interests to make his influence binding politically.

If he lays w those mercantile dogs, he’ll get up w fleas. But our sovereignty issues are keenly felt in Florida, and he may have the need for precedence over Ukraine at some point. DeSantis knows he can pay his bills; Biden only presumes he can steal more from Americans.

When the Convention of States is called in Florida to get the Congressional toilets flushed, and re-instate the Monroe Doctrine for the Western Hemisphere, ideally before the Biden Cabal crime family has installed China in Havana harbor, we will all cheer the Florida National Guard, with the full support of our military industrial complex.

Some things are worth fighting WWIII FOR -- especially the war that defeats the most dangerous enemy Americans have ever confronted -- BIDEN & the CCP, one and the same. His stupidity and arrogance are bottomless. The cult of ‘climate change’, officiated by brain-dead Orks created only for destruction ( of the rest of us), has filled up that cup of iniquity to the point where extinction of it is the most merciful thing our civilization could render. It is the difference between life and death, quality and zero.

After the zeros are eliminated, not aggregated like the floating plastic continent unclaimed by China at sea, the power of a once mighty military industrial complex will be recommitted to the future of America First, with Life, Liberty and Justice for all. To the extent that this end has not been our reason for being is another reason to hold a Convention of States realignment of original human rights as American values in governance.

There is a ‘good’ USA beneath all the corruption and derailment of that original document. Cleaning it up, and restoring its promise won’t be a cakewalk, but it will be worth the walk.
