Governor DeSantis is the young, up and coming star of the Republican Party. He is a popular Governor of a critical swing state that is critical for any Presidential victory. But what really sets Gov. DeSantis apart is that he seems like a person with all of the good policy inclinations of former President Trump without the unhinged bluster that plagued the Trump administration. People who work with DeSantis do not leave him and speak about how impossible his personality is.
DeSantis has learned from President Trump that it is popular and wise to attack the media when the media attacks him. Nobody does that better than the Donald. But DeSantis is a good student, and has adopted the habit well. However, as far as decision-making goes, DeSantis is less of a deal-making businessman, and more an ideologue with down-to-earth sensibilities who knows how to cut to the chase and dismiss policies that are not based on sound reason.
DeSantis is likable despite his occasional combativeness. That is an excellent trait on the campaign trail. He is also young and should not make the mistake of running for President in 2024. Marco Rubio is still working on rehabilitating his tarnished image. If and when former President Trump runs for office, the Republican Party should steer away from propping up any contender that is any more than a potential Vice President. Mike Pence will probably announce early on that he is in contention. It will not be pretty watching a primary between Donald Trump and Mike Pence. Trump will probably eat Pence alive. But Pence will do some additional damage to Trump’s already tarnished reputation. But the more the bungling and corrupt Joe Biden serves, the more President Trump becomes attractive. More than 70% of America today probably believe that Putin invaded Ukraine because Joe Biden is half asleep at the wheel.
The Democrat Party is walking straight into a major trouncing in the 2022 midterms. Any Republican with any political aspirations should be jumping into the fray this time around. Democrats who seem unbeatable will either announce sudden retirement or face an angry electorate that gets more angry every time they fill up a tank of gas or go to a supermarket.
America is going through a major reset now. Governor DeSantis is in sync with a major swath of America. The more negative press he gets from the far left media, the more he becomes popular. Be prepared for Gov. DeSantis, former Secretary Pompeo, or Nikki Haley to take the reins in 2028. They are the main reasons to be hopeful for a positive future in the United States. The only question is how much damage Biden, Obama, and the other power brokers in the Democrat Party will bring upon the world before they are toppled.
