Did you watch his campaign? The guy is soooo awkward. Secretary of State is a no go. Are you serious?
Trump probably believes his biggest mistake in his first administration was selection of advisors and cabinet officers who expressed their opinion when they disagreed with him. This time the litmus test will be absolute loyalty. Ron DeSantis may meet the test, no way with Nikki Haley. I cannot see her changing her mind with respect to aid to Ukraine.
You mean the way Lerner weaponized the IRS like this? 3 Groups Denied Break by I.R.S. Are Named (Published 2011) And this happened after Lerner left but when Obama was still president. IRS Rejects “Charitable” Status for Democratic Host Committee, Denying Corporations a Tax Write-off On the other hand this is a real example of the weaponization of the IRS. Comey and McCabe, Who Infuriated Trump, Both Faced Intensive I.R.S. Audits (Published 2022) Among tax lawyers, the most invasive type of random audit carried out by the I.R.S. is known, only partly jokingly, as “an autopsy without the benefit of death.” The odds of being selected for that audit in any given year are tiny — out of nearly 153 million individual returns filed for 2017, for example, the I.R.S. targeted about 5,000, or roughly one out of 30,600.
I just said Desantis is awkward as shit and would suck at SoS. That isn't exactly a hot take. Dude is awkward - everyone knows that now. He'd be fine in justice. Jesus you snowflakes are so sensitive.
I agree with that part of your take…he is awkward and not a great fit for sos. You had some other cnn bs in there you omitted… Prior to aging gators response to you.
Since when do you have to be rico suave to be SOS? Cackling Shillary wasn't the best, but whatever anyone wants to say about her stint as SOS, it wasn't because her cackling screechy midwestern radioactive repellent personality.
I agree with you 100% that is Trump’s only criteria for selecting advisors and cabinet members. I just think Desantis is smart enough to manipulate Trump into hiring him if that is his goal. I mean look at what JD Vance previously said about Trump.
Right, because Antony Blinken would be so suave as a presidential candidate. How could I forget the silver tongue requirement of being SoS? Silly me.
Ok so people who have watched desantis in Florida actually think he would be good at something as delicate as Secretary of State? Seriously? Or are you just arguing with me to argue? I mean his tenure has been marred by petty disputes with many of the states most important institutions. You want to put a sensitive dude like that into a position where he has to deal with disagreements and sensitive topics with Allies and enemies on the regular? Really? I think there are plenty of pubs that could do better.
DeSantis is the guy who threatened “cold war” against Florida’s neighbor if Georgians elected Stacy Abrams. That’s the guy you people want to run ourNation’s diplomacy?!?! DeSantis says 'Cold War' could ensue between Florida and Georgia if Stacey Abrams wins governor race
