Gov. Ron DeSantis is talking 2028 and a potential rival for the Republican nomination, but he’s not being pinned down to specifics.
Florida’s Governor took to Newsmax, where he was asked about Democratic talking points that vice presidential nominee JD Vance is “weird” and what advice DeSantis might give the Ohio Senator, as well as if he had any regrets about the 2024 cycle and not being on Donald Trump’s ticket.
When asked about Vance and the narrative, DeSantis said to ignore the noise.
Democrats “want the election to be about something that the VP candidate said five years ago or something that happened 10 years ago. If we’re arguing on that, then the Democrats are in a better spot,” DeSantis said.
Kamala Harris’ campaign has called Vance “weird and creepy,” while the candidate has been dogged by a false rumor that he performed a sexual act with a sofa in the past, as well as real comments he made condemning ideological opponents as “childless cat ladies.”
Though Vance is getting more scrutiny than any VP candidate since Sarah Palin in 2008, DeSantis says looking ahead to a future election is premature and counterproductive, as is wondering what might have been if he hadn’t run for President in 2024.
“We believe in getting things done. But ultimately, you do that by not worrying about elections two or four years-plus in advance,” DeSantis said. “You worry about what you can do right now to actually deliver big results. And so my hope is, is that we’re successful in 2024 and that Republicans actually capitalize on the opportunity.”
Polling for now says Vance has supplanted DeSantis atop a list of 2028 presidential hopefuls. But the Governor seems good with it.

Rhonda’s calling somebody weird? Oh man.
So, perhaps Jadie didn’t copperlate with the couch, but being that he was allegedly once a 13 year old boy, he copperlated with something(s) untoward; that’s for certain.
Given Jadie’s weird obsession with cats, I’d say they must of regularly nailed the cat all through adolescence until that poor cat met its demise from butt related issues.

Hey Don’t Say. Did you see that takedown the other day by “weird” JD Vance when Ka Mana raised a question about what he has done for America? It will be on a commercial at some point. She should know better than to question a person who served about commitment to this country

Maybe I’ll catch that someday but so far all I got is the Southport child murders, inspired by Jadie Vance, up at the childless cat lady yoga party for kids where some dipstick Vance support decided to kill some little girls who might end up childless cat ladies because yoga was having a Taylor Swift theme day

I’m sure you are aware that Southport is in England right? Do you think that 17 year old kid has even heard of JD Vance? How many in the US know the name of the British Prime Minister?

Excuse me but seriously WTF? You are conflating the murder of little girls in England by a 17 yo male person from Rwanda, with the VP party candidate in the US? What is wrong with you? Have people just lost their minds? You can’t even make an argument in good faith or stay on topic? This is grim, flippant, and twisted.

No one in this day and age is buying the argument that military service makes one a better person or a better candidate for public office.
Today’s military are volunteers — since 1973 — and what good Americans OUGHT to be doing is making sure the government lives up to the contract it signed with volunteers.

I have no problem with abortions. As a matter of fact I am in favor of a woman’s right to choose. I have said that multiple times. I just don’t get in this day and age of all forms of readily available contraception why this is a big issue. Then again the Demos are making it a big issue because they have nothing else to run on.

All of them need to focus on the issues at hand and stop the childish name calling. All of their records are out there if you research. Harris is no better than Biden and on most issues, she is worse. Don’t be fooled. Research. America is in trouble thanks to the Biden Administration and she is a huge part of it.

There would be few unwanted pregnancies if men used a condom and used it correctly, but instead the woman is left responsible if inception occurs.
Saying you believe a woman has the right to make choices but aligning with MAGAs IS weird. Who buys into such an argument since its a woman’s civil rights that are at stake?

In one week’s time Kamala has made more changes to the political climate in the USA than Trump, DeSantis and a host of other Republicans have done in the four years since they lost in 2020.
VOTE FOR HER!

Under only two presidents — Lincoln and W — did the national debt grow more in terms of the overall economy’s size.
DJT would do it again, and more if reelected. Huges tax cuts for the Big Enchiladas, micro-cuts for the people in general, and cuts to social services because of the loss of revenue.
