DeSanits / Noem 2024?
I really like Noem. Her CPAC speech was great. I haven't watched DeSanits' yet.
Having a woman on the ticket would be helpful. There are a lot of issues that are best championed by a female. The trans issue in sports is one; it is something that many women should get behind.
As much as I like Trump. I think he should sit this out. His age is a factor. His shtick (for lack of a better term) is getting old. His CPAC speech was meh to me. He spends too much time bragging and criticizing. He needs to do that, but it needs to be concise. I'm sure he has people telling him that, but he is know not to listen.
Trump should have spent more time talking about the future. In that future I'd love to see him campaign for DeSanits and Noem. I still like Rand, but maybe as a cabinet official. He just isn't very charismatic and unfortunately that is a very important part of politics now.
*Plus Trump is too divisive. People either love him or hate him. No matter what he does, he is not going to win people to his side.
Setting aside the 'it's all theater design to distract you' comments we're going to get for this conversation.
I like Noem, too. She seems to be level headed and fair and I agree that there are issues that are better championed by a woman. I only saw bits and pieces of her speech but will probably take the time to watch it soon. DeSantis' too. My friends and family in Florida have high praise for his handling of most things during his administration - not just Covid.
I don't like Trump. Never did. As a NYC native I couldn't get past the smarmy showmanship and immature behavior. I despised his idiotic TV show. I agree that he should sit this out and age is just one reason. He failed to deliver on many of his promises and doesn't deserve another shot at it IMHO.
Trump would serve the country best by doing what he's been ding recently. Going after RINOs and primarying them out. He should focus on taking the Republican party away from the old guard and giving it back to the people, to coin a campaign phrase.
I can see that take on Trump for sure. Although I think he did deliver on a lot. Some of what he was unable to do was a fault of his leadership and not his will. Mainly his inability to put people around him which shared his vision. (John Bolton, like wtf dude)
Some of that isn't his fault. Paul Ryan was a big problem. Plus the fact that the Republicans never had an actual plan to repeal and replace Obamacare. That was a shit show which is unforgivable. A major failing of the party.

Absolutely this 100%
It is said that he is also working on getting more Republicans in state legislators, and pushing for state level voter ID and restrictions on mail in voting. Those efforts, if successful will be very helpful.
But yeah goy, it's all just controlled opposition. lol :)
