While I can admire DeSantis, he is valuable as a FL leader - showing the nation what can be accomplished, I'd prefer he not run in '24. I would like to see Vivek Ramaswamy get some traction. Like Andrew Yang, he is an outsider with an ability to manage. Neither has any chance with the political machines to control their sinecures in the Uniparty.
Trump did well to latch onto MAGA which to my mind was a resurrection of the Tea Party but with a leader. I still think we have a huge citizen desire for some level of control of our federal government, to reign it in. It may be impossible to do that but it needs to start.
I might think their rank incompetence enough to cause voters to reject them, but that might require a clean-up of the election machinery.
This is so spot on! Appreciate your thinking and clarity in writing. Trump is a continual distraction--he can’t help himself.
