Yeah, and how much influence did either of these people have in his administration? And Bush sure as shite didn’t need the Vice Presidency for an additional qualification to be President. It was probably the least prestigious position he held for like 20 years.
Bush only took the VP job to keep an eye on Reagan for the establishment queers, which he most assuredly was one. I'll always suspect that hw bush had a hand in the assassination attempt.

DeSantis is more relevant than Pence ever was.


Yes. Is. DeSantis is the top governor in the country and Pence is no longer in office.

The question is will DeSantis be more relevant in 2028 as a VP, 4 years from being governor of Florida - or as nothing, 2 years removed from being governor of Florida.

If Trump were to step down two years in, DeSantis would potentially have a decade in charge. Just saying. In terms of longevity, it is the smart play.


That is the only reason I can see for any possibility of a Trump/DeSantis ticket.

You don’t know that.


I do.

Similar ballsy calls in his Presidency include Iran's Soleimani, Syria drone strikes, firing Comey (though that should've been handled much cleaner) and lastly, endorsing DeSantis when he was considered a long shot for Florida Governor.

There may have been a short term furor in firing Fauci but in time it would have been recognized as the right call and I'm basing that on how DeSantis defied Fauci.



When DeSantis defied Fauci and kept Florida open, he got a ton of shite for it. He was standing alone in the middle of a grass field with arrows everywhere pointed at him.

Where's DeSantis now? Widely seen as the most popular GOP Governor in America, widely seen as a big time 2024 contender and is responsible for setting off the dominoes of reopening around the country.


I also remember Trump bashing Brian Kemp for keeping Georgia open last summer and this board getting pissed over those comments.

Pelosi’s and your RINO pals would have more than likely gone 25th


Even after Jan 6th, there was no credible attempt at 25th amendment and there was never going to be enough GOP support for impeachment.

Firing Fauci would've been nothing to them.

Let me answer that very, very easy question for you: the later. As easy as asking if 2+2=5 or 2+2=4? It’s the later no question. He’ll be off the scene for 4 fricking months before announcing his candidacy. Last I checked, Biden didn’t hold office for over 2 years (not 4 months) before announcing his candidacy and Trump held no office ever. What you’re asking is absolute extreme stupidity.

I have confidence in him to handle business pretty easily from a VP position.


You overrate the value of the figurehead and ceremonial VP position and its actual power and clout, especially compared to being the most popular GOP Governor in America and the Chief Executive of the 4th largest state in America.

It's weird.

Putting that aside for a second I personally prefer DeSantis bigly, but if it is Trump, I'll ride. The scene you lay out of Trump's rebirth + DeSantis taking over in 2028 is a wet dream scenario. Can't really get there on Trump winning in 2024 after the absurdity of what happened to him but it would be amazing and stranger than fiction. At any rate this is all moot if PA and GA aren't fixed.

Of course Meadows and DeSantis are going to say that. Desantis is a slam dunk, Trump is not.

So, y'all go ahead and screw it up and put another DumsA$$ Democrat back in the White House.

A I've posted before, DeSantis is a lock to win, Trump is not. DeSantis can win over the Trumpers, the non-Trumpers and the "moderate" Republicans who wont vote for Trump.

That, and Desantis will be only 45 vs 78 for Trump.


Bill Clinton was in his 40s for his Presidency and once he and his party got a big asskicking in the 1994 midterms, he changed a lot of things about how he operated, what policy he fought for and he went on to win reelection for 2nd term and have a successful Presidency that's considered one of the best in American history.

Can you see an old man in his late 70s and early 80s being prudent and shrewd enough to recognize mistakes and change things? I don't.

I was expressing my doubts about him in the weeks leading up to the runoff election and I was completely dispirited about the dogshit and tone deaf campaign he was running.

Rispone did everything he could to lose the race and he did. He earned the loss.

The biggest warning sign for me was that he did not have Ralph Abraham out there stumping for him on the campaign trail, doing ads for him and they only appeared together at Trump rallies. That was political malpractice on Rispone's part.

DeSantis keeps his name in the news with policy actions, EOs, bill signings and managing the state of Florida as its Governor.

VP is where you have to maintain a really low profile for 4 years because you cannot overshadow the President. How often did you hear about Pence and Biden when they were Vice President?

I said JBE could beat the weak assed candidates the La. GOP put forth while you were jerking off to Rispone.

I said Cassidy was a snake, you love that sorry motherfricker. I said frick him and voted for the welder

I said Kamala Harris was the pick of the handlers of the swamp.

I called ALL of this on this site.

No offense, but I put the skins on on the wall, and all you have is your revisionist history.

Traditionally - yes.

My take is that Trump gives DeSantis th reigns. Again, my takes have come to fruition...yours haven’t.

Dude also LOVED Loeffler and Perdue but blames Drumpf


Also wanted Drumpf to drone the protesters so you are not dealing with a very stable person mentally

You're sorely mistaken in thinking LA GOP is this all seeing powerful entity that pulls the levers in this state.

Lol, it's one of the weakest state party organizations in the country and that's by design.

If they had any power, John Kennedy would've been the candidate against JBE.

I'll give you a challenge here. Find 10 posts of mine where I profess my extreme admiration of Bill Cassidy and I'll gladly eat crow here.

With that said, I'm looking forward to voting for a conservative replacement for Cassidy in 2026.

Who?

Yeah, that's what I thought.

Ok? Good for you.

I couldn't have cared less who Biden's handlers were going to pick for VP because I was never going to vote for them anyway. Not my concern.
