The Maryland Governor?

Yep. I'm a big fan.

If the Republicans picked today, it would probably be DeSantis.

If the Republicans picked today, it would probably be DeSantis.

If they picked 4 years ago, it probably would have been Jeb Bush.

I agree though RE: DeSantis. Maybe Nikki Haley?

I don't think Trump will run again, but I could see someone from his inner circle running. Maybe DeSantis is that guy. The part that's going to be tough to watch is all the Republican Presidential hopefuls continuing to kiss Trump's ass for 4 more years.

Republicans don't like Nikki Haley. She will run but will be kicked aside like Jeb.

Maybe Tulsi Gabbard can tweak a few of her policy positions and run as a Republican. She seemed to get more traction with Republicans than Democrats in 2020. Andrew Yang also has the crossover appeal to run as a Republican, but he's spent the last year sucking up to the Democratic Party establishment to bolster his political future and in an attempt to become mayor of New York City.

Tulsi wants universal health care, supports abortion, and universal basic income. She also supports making college free for families below a certain income. She has spoken positively about the green new deal. She is awful on gun rights.

She has some views that are similar with republicans but she's no republican. Republicans just liked it when she wrecked house during the debates.

There is not a chance in hell that the republicans won't pull a ticket together capitalizing on the MAGA theme with a more refined approach.

I'm sure that's right, but one can hope!

The Donald is not happy with Mitch, who probably could have swung 10 more votes to convict, but instead voted to acquit with most of his caucus.
Can't imagine the reception if he had voted the other way.

At least the big lie of very fine people was finally put to rest.

This and Russia. Lots of people that bought these big lies are idiots.
