A New Star on the Horizon

 Anyone who knows me knows that I'm a diehard Trump fan.  I voted for the man twice, and in my humble opinion he's the best President to sit in the Oval Office in my lifetime (and I'm 66 tomorrow, by the way).  He did more for this country in four short years than any other President in the history of our nation.  Unemployment was at an all-time low, black employment was at an all-time high, gas prices were lower than they had been in the past 20 years, our military was strong, the southern border was secure, and Wall Street set record high after record high on a consistent basis.  Mortgage interest rates were low while new home sales were at an all-time high.  And finally, we had a man in the White House who truly loved his country and was doing things for the betterment of the country as a whole, not for just his party.

Then the Demoncrats stole the election and installed "Creepy Joe" Biden as President.  Things went to hell in a handbasket after that, and anyone who thinks otherwise is either dumb as a post or intentionally ignorant.  

So for the past 2 years everyone on libtard side of the political spectrum has been crowing about what a fantastic job the pedophile in the Oval Office is doing, while the rest of the world realizes just what a fuckin' disaster this doddering, incompetent old fool truly is.  (If you want a glimpse of how the rest of the world sees it, just take a look at the BBC.  Get ready to be embarrassed.)  Needless to say, the cries of "Trump for President" resounded loud and clear, and I was all for it - until the midterm elections, that is.

Now that the midterm elections are over and the Republicans are in charge of the House again (bye-bye, Pelosi), two things have become glaringly apparent - first, Trump's time in the spotlight is over.  He doesn't have the influence and clout that he did when he was President, and part of that is because of his own doing.  He's still running his mouth as he always has, but the only thing is that since he's not the President anymore he doesn't have the chance to do anything spectacular to justify it.  In short, there's no reason to put up with him right now.

Second, there's a new star on the horizon, one that absolutely has the potential to eclipse Trump - and that star's name is Ron DeSantis, the newly re-elected Governor of Florida.

Plainly put, DeSantis is Trump without the mouth.  He's Trump without being crass.  He loves Florida and the country just as much as Trump, he's clear-spoken and direct, and most important of all he gets things done.  He ignored the bullshit mandates put out by the Biden Administration during the bullshit Covid "pandemic" created by Fauci and the Biden Administration, and while all of the libtards whined and cried about it saying that Florida was doomed and that everyone was going to die, the exact opposite happened - Florida flourished, the rates of Coved infection were one of the lowest in the country, and people started leaving blue states and moving to Florida in droves.

Then he turned around and got re-elected, proving that the people of Florida know a good thing when they see it.

Now the big question is, will he run for the Republican nomination for President?  Right now Trump's only challenger is that idiot of a former Secretary of State, John Bolton, who stands about as much change of beating Trump as a snowball in hell.  I think the only person in the Republican party who can give Trump a run for his money is Ron DeSantis, and if DeSantis runs then it's a whole new ball game for a couple of reasons.

The first reason is that the same people who love and support Trump also love and support DeSantis.  They realize just as I do that DeSantis is Trump 2.0 and can get the same job done as Trump but without the mouthing off and constant controversy that Trump brings with him.  That's a win-win any way you look at it.

The second reason is that the Republican party will never let Trump win the nomination.  There are way too many RINOs and others in the GOP who were embarrassed by Trump when he defied their predictions and accomplished all that he did, showing them to be nothing but Demoncrats in disguise along the way.  So now it's time for them to play a little catch-up, and they'll do it by denying Trump the nomination.  And if DeSantis runs, that gives them a way to do it.

If DeSantis runs, the RINOs and the rest of the GOP will throw their support behind him, eclipsing any chance that Trump may have.  And I'll tell you right now, as much as I love Trump and am grateful for all of the great things he did for our country, if DeSantis runs then he has my vote.  Trump has become too much of a polarizing figure over the past two years to be as effective as he was the first time around, and that will prevent him from doing the things that need to be done to fix all of the shit that "Creepy Joe" has broken and make our country great once again.  DeSantis, on the other hand, can do just as good a job without the controversy that Trump brings with him.

So as much as I'd love to see DeSantis win the Republican nomination, if that happens that brings us to a point that could very well be a "make or break" one that could hand the Presidency to the libtards again.  And that point is this:  if DeSantis gets the nomination (which he will), what will Trump do?  Will he throw his support behind DeSantis and campaign on his behalf, or will he let his ego get the better of him and run as an Independent?  I'm hoping he campaigns for DeSantis, because if he runs as an Independent all that will do is take votes away from DeSantis, which will literally hand the Presidency to the Demoncrats.  

And that means we'd have to suffer through another four years of a libtard Demoncratic disaster regardless of who the Demoncrats have in the White House.  (And it won't be Biden, that's for sure - not even the most hard-nosed Demoncrat will support him after his abysmal performance ratings of the past year, and just how much of a buffoon he's proven himself to be.)  

So I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that if DeSantis runs and wins the nomination, Trump will bow out of the race and campaign for him so we can put a Republican - a TRUE Republican, not a RINO - back in the White House and get this country up and running again as our Founding Fathers wanted.

Time will tell.
