DeSantis is going to win the New Hampshire primary, isn't he?
“LEADERSHIP MATTERS”
Gov. @ChrisSununu introduces @RonDeSantis in Seacoast, New Hampshire — praising DeSantis’ leadership during crises and record of getting things done.

This man was this solid on almost every issue facing America.
The Republican Party whiffed this one bad.
DeSantis on H1-B visas: “I don’t support undercutting American wages, and the H1-B program has been used for that.”
As president, @RonDeSantis will make immigration policy that benefits Americans first.

Those of you Trump supporters who've been insisting DeSantis wait till 2028 have put the country in crisis (with help from the feds).
Trump needs to drop out and endorse DeSantis if he has any hope of avoiding prison.
There is no path to victory for Trump any longer.

You know I love you, David.
But:
1. I see no substantive difference between Trump and Biden.
2. Trump isn't going to beat Biden, no matter what we do.
3. Trump has destroyed the GOP, and sadly must be humiliated before good people can begin the arduous task of rebuilding it.
I understand why you supported DeSantis in the primary. I love the guy. It is now over. I will never understand why you would support Biden over Trump and yes you are supporting him if you don’t affirmatively vote for Trump, whether or not you get that logic.

Yesterday I claimed that DeSantis is superior to Trump in every way.
Opened Twitter this morning and saw a reply from a Trump supporter touting a Twitter poll showing Trump trouncing DeSantis.
Does this Trump supporter think a Twitter poll refutes the qualitative claim I made?

I am not used to @DanaPerino , whom I've always admired, asking such an obnoxious question in such an obnoxious way.
Dana Perino: "What is your mathematical path to victory in order to try and beat President Trump who has a commanding and enduring lead in this race?"
DESANTIS: "Polls don't elect presidents. Voters elect presidents!"

JD Vance: "This is how wars ultimately get settled. If you go back to World War 2, if you go back to every major conflict in human history, they all end with some kind of negotiation."

No one, in all my 71 years of life, has ever co-opted a party in the way the Trump family have the Republican Party.
And they did it while consistently losing when it was critical that they win.
Truly amazing, and more than a little frightening.
I’m not sure. The GOP has been declared dead a few times to keep roaring back.
I suspect a Trump win will lead to a 2008-style 2028, though.

This is why some of us latched on to DeSantis.
And why some of you fear him so much.
First of all, that's not true.
Faithfulness to solid conservative values and principles doesn't require a party to be a political doormat.
And tossing out conservative values and principles in service of chaos-sowing makes "winning" pointless.

If, and only if, DeSantis is Trump's VP pick, I will vote for Trump.
In my book, DeSantis raises Trump's stock more than Trump diminishes DeSantis's.
And my book is the only book I care about in this whole mess.
I’m going to give my opinion on this. I’m sure it will piss off a few people. I can’t see DeSantis wanting this. After not getting the nomination I think he’s going to finish his term in Florida. If there’s a GOP win in 2024 maybe there’s a promise of a spot after his term is up.

Biden will be bad for America in the short term.
But no worse than he's been.
Trump **may** be less bad for America in the short term.
But in the long term, he's deadly for both the Republican Party and conservatism, which is unbelievably bad for America in the long term.
He's a New York real estate guy.

I'm going to say this again and again, even in the face of "they would hate DeSantis too" excuses:
DeSantis would have done his homework before taking a bulldozer to federal programs.
And he would be on this particular situation like white on rice.
DOGE closed 5 social security offices in GA a couple weeks ago. Now, they’re telling Georgia seniors they can't use the phone to claim benefits either.
Let's call this what it is: An intentional attempt to stop folks from claiming benefits they've EARNED. I will fight this.

I have never seen a President so arrogantly misplay, and overplay, his hand like Trump is now.
Trump reportedly won’t restore military aid or intelligence sharing with Ukraine — even if Kyiv and Washington strike a deal on mineral resources — NBC News
He wants Zelensky to cede territory to Russia, take steps toward holding elections, and possibly step down.

Dear fellow, um, DeSantis online trolls:
Why is everybody getting instructions but me?
Jenna, you are right. Calling me a food blogger--as the DeSantis online trolls have been instructed to do--is the furthest thing from an insult.
Creating original recipes, converting them into a cookbook, and teaching cooking classes in my home to busy moms who wanted to learn how to make dinner a few times a week was by far my most gratifying professional experience.
I also wrote a weekly column in my local paper to share those recipes with my community. It was so much fun. In fact, of all the work I've produced, I only have one framed article in my office--the local paper's coverage of my cooking class from 2014.
And as much as I appreciate comments from friends about my current work, nothing is better than when one of my former mom-students--or better yet, their children--tells me they still use my recipes and how much they enjoy them.
Cooking for the ones you love and sharing that skill with others is nothing to be ashamed of--so please tell your many RDS groups chats that obsess about me to keep the "food blogger" descriptions coming!
Merry Christmas!

My factory reset would be Reagan's foreign policy merged with DeSantis's domestic policy.
(When he was in Congress, DeSantis's foreign policy WAS Reagan's.)
I've seen too many MAGAs insist that Reagan conservatives are not "solid conservatives."
And too many DeSantis supporters who think everyone who disagrees with them on Ukraine is a "neocon."
We desperately need reset to factory defaults.

The penguin thing isn't the worst problem here, but it IS funny. And it IS a clear indication of the tariffs' bigger problem: the process was detached from economic theory/reality and frantically/carelessly executed by a bunch of rank amateurs.

Thinking the supposed end of the Cold War gave us an apparently limitless "Peace Dividend," almost the whole West decided it was time to stop spending money on defense industrial capacity, and now we are preparing to stop Chines aggression in the Pacific without adequate arms.
🇺🇸🇺🇦 "Aid to Ukraine" is really an investment in American manufacturing.
$51.2 billion has gone into the US defense industrial base to date. Once all funds are obligated, it will be over $60 billion.
Top recipient states:
1. Arkansas - $4.25 billion
2. Alabama - $3.31 billion
3. Pennsylvania - $2.83 billion
4. Arizona - $2.72 billion
5. Texas - $2.04 billion
6. West Virginia - $1.98 billion
7. California - $1.96 billion
8. Florida - $1.59 billion
9. Missouri - $968 million
10. New York - $943 million
Note that not all contracts and investments are reflected on the map, so it won't match the total obligations. Only prime contractors and select key subcontractors are mapped. The defense industrial supply chain stretches into all 50 states, and many states are underrepresented due to the nature of the weapon systems provided to Ukraine (e.g. no aircraft =very little for South Carolina & Washington).
If your state isn't highlighted that doesn't mean that there are no funds from the Ukraine Supplementals flowing into your state.

This is important.
Trump may have copied a little of DeSantis's ideas, but until they're codified, it doesn't count.
The gains made during the DeSantis administration have largely been codified due to actual legislation being passed.
While we admittedly have a RINO problem, as many are bought by Big Weed, gains will not simply disappear if we get a crappy governor.
And don't underestimate how badly those RINOs effed up with their special session stunt. If you're not seeing the day-to-day OTG response, you're missing a big part of the puzzle.

"Early" is the most crucial word in the article.

I don't support having a truck driver having to pay a student loan for someone that got a degree in gender studies. That is wrong.

It is my belief (that I freely admit may be projection) that any Republican kissing the ring now is DOA as a presidential hopeful.
In terms of voter approval, this administration is beginning the slow at first, accelerating later, descent into circling the drain territory.
Question for DeSantis supporters, is this fair criticism? Is Ron kissing up to Trump now and pulling punches, and if he is, is this a good strategy?
Imo, I do think RDS is starting to kiss up to Trump a little too much for my liking but I also understand the politics behind it.
