I understand everyone has different opinions here and that is perfectly fine. Some folks are about Trump, some DeSantis and so on. Support who you want to support. But there is no need to attack people you don’t support. If you are all about Trump then spend your energy supporting Trump and not attacking DeSantis and vice versa.
That sort of behavior is a waste of energy and a misdirection of motivation that the powers that be love. They love when you attack each other because it means all the shady sh!t they are doing flies under the radar.
For example, how many of you know Sam Bankman-Fried had more charges dropped against him and the one that would probably would cause discovery of political things?

Not that anyone cares but here is my take on the field. I dip into it just for the purpose of conversation.
– Trump
Someone needs to wreck the establishment but when he had his chance he did not do it. If he were to win again, best case scenario is he takes a wrecking ball to the establishment and doing it that way will cause a lot of colleterial damage. I think the motivation is correct but the method needs to be different.
-DeSantis
Great Governor as he does what his people wants. I know he gets tagged with being anti-LGBT but from everything I have read that is entirely propaganda. He should have sat out this time, did his job in Florida and then stepped up in 2028. He would have won hands down. But he has thrown all that away in my mind as he is now basically abandoning Florida, running an awful campaign and showing that he is not ready.
-Vivek
I know this guy is young but I have listened to him speak for at least several hours at this point on podcasts that came at him with everything. I never once heard any BS, any confusion and every time he was asked what he thought he delivered an actual answer or even a full blown plan with details. I like this man a lot. He too wants to wreck the establishment but I have heard his actual plans on doing so and doing it without lighting the entire thing on fire.
-Larry Elder
Larry is great, California basically sealed their destruction when they kept Newsome and did not elect Elder. Elder understands America, he understands how society works and he reminds me of Thomas Sowell. Not that he is as intelligent as Sowell (few humans are) but his logic follows the same tact.
-Everyone Else
While I am not an expert on the rest of the field I heard all of them speak on Tucker’s Townhall. As far as I am concerned they are all establishment war mongers.
My personal pick? I want a Vivek/Elder ticket. I would donate money, campaign and knock on doors for that.
