Title: Trump or DeSantis
Post by: DocMercy on May 24, 2023, 02:29:46 PM
Puffy Ron announced today, and appears to have the backing of Elon Musk.

Elon is buttering up Ron to get the next Tesla factory built in Florida (after Disney abandons the state). I can't wait for the first debate. Ron had better hire a good comedy writer.

Trump's numbers make this moot

And the fact that Elon is involved makes me trust DeSantis even less

Why not both?   :geekdanc: :thumbsup:


Ron & Don  for Co-Presidents!!

Better than picking a running mate based on skin color or gender.

If Tulsi were to drop her anti  2a Bullshit, she and Trump wold walk into the white house.
She is an officer and ALL officers are afraid of guns. So that may be a stretch.

I'd like to see Trump and DeSantis strike a deal.  Trump as President and Ron as Vice President.

Then 4 years later Ron takes the reign.

Realistically, no can. If both presidential and vice-presidential candidates are from the same state, they cannot get the electoral votes from that state.

Either 1) one of them would have to change state of residence (like Cheney did in 2000), which I think would be unlikely, or 2) they’d have to forfeit all electoral votes from Florida, which would pretty much guarantee a loss.

Trump should have no problem temporarily changing his residence.  I think he'd be fine with NY for a few years, but I'd recommend a Red state.  A big consideration is his security detail.
He needs to have accommodations for Secret Service agents wherever he is.

He received some pushback after declaring Mara Lago as his official residence due to an arrangement he made with the town council when getting approval to open the private club.  Plus, he had to demolish his helipad because Palm Beach bans them.   :wacko:

Sounds like he's had a lot of back-and-forth over a few issues in FL, so it might be to his benefit to pull up stakes -- at least as his primary residence -- and find a more hospitable locale.

I want Bobby Kennedy to win so he can disband the CIA for killing his dad and uncle.

Everyone needs to go watch Dave smiths interview with RFK. I might be voting democrat. I would need to see his 2A stance. But seeing how strong the Bruen decision has been it may not matter anymore.

I'm seriously considering registering as a Democrat.

Waiting to see what Tulsi does first.

Neither

Not sure you know how Boolean logical operators work ("or").

Exclusive OR (XOR) might work…. :shake: :wacko:

That would definitely negate the residency issue.

But for Jaco808, his answer earns hm a big, fat "F".

T+F=T
F+T=T
T+T=T
F+F=F

Trump has been the exact same person for decades

If you’re good to him, he’ll be good to you

If you hit him, he’s going to hit you back twice as hard

This isn’t complicated

Or literally any of the other republican candidates...

If it came down to Trump or Desantis I would easily choose Desantis.

But I am liking Tim Scott . Vivek Ramaswamy sounds like a good candidate too.
