Subject: Re: Trump: I Would Encourage Russia...
Disagree. I thought DeSantis was better than he actually was. His campaign exposed that he is just a more intelligent (slightly) version of Trump. He picks fights he doesn't need to (e.g. Disney), and really isn't a policy wonk. Of everyone that attempted to run this time, I think Christie was probably the most competent and politically savvy. Even with the bad optics of his closing a beach, and then lounging on that very same beach. I wouldn't vote for him, but at least I can respect him as a politician.

Haley would probably be next. Her calling out of DeSantis and Trump were right on the money. I would think from a policy standpoint, if you support what you claim are Trump's policies (ignoring that he has no policies), you would want her. She gave voice to actual policies, and likely has the competence to make them reality. Again, I wouldn't vote for her. But she does not represent chaos. She represents competent opposition.
