We are still in need of the qualities of great leadership. Many leading Republicans and conservatives want someone other than Donald Trump to run for President in 2024. But this judgment requires an assessment of Trump’s vices and virtues in the context of our current political and cultural circumstances, as well as an assessment of other prospective Republican presidential candidates. Among the talked-about alternatives to Trump, I have not yet seen anyone who possesses either his virtues or his backbone. I am not suggesting that everyone make way for Trump; rather that it is too early to throw him overboard. I regularly ask Republican politicians what they think of Donald Trump.

F#(& DemRATZ....Go Trump 4 POTUS 2024...MUD

DeSantis is the man. He is good for Republicans, and he doesn't drive Independents away. If elected, he'll be a two term President.
