Trump Considers DeSantis for Defense Secretary as His Support for Hegseth Falters

Get over myself? 😂 I definitely know how message boards work which is why I responded to his vapid and silly remarks.
You can't find humor in this?

Probably. Unfortunately, it would position him better to run for the White House again.

Unless Trump throws him under the bus. Which is likely if Trump stays President for very long (I don't expect him to).
The problem I have with trump's cabinet choices is that most of them are willing to let vengeance and personal agendas rule the day. While Desanctimonious is capable of creating and governing on good policy, he has a chip on his shoulder that is very unbecoming.
 
Ron has served overseas and been a JAG Officer as well. A former Congressman, he knows how things run.
CNN also hinted at Senators Joni Ernst from Iowa and Bill Haverty from TN but this morning it seems the Governor is emerging as the strongest candidate. I’d be sorry to see him leave early but he’s done a lot for the State already.
Ernst or Haverty? 🤣

He or Ernst at least would be qualified. Presidents should be able to pick their cabinets…. The President’s only obligation is the nominee needs to be suitably qualified professionally And morally. (But then, we’d have to have a different President, wouldn’t we?)
Is Ernst qualified?
 
First 2 are exaggerated bullshit.

Kidnapped migrants? By sending them to Martha’s Vineyard? GTFO
So, it's your claim he didn't deceive them by saying they had jobs, loaded them on a plane, and flew them to a place where they had no idea where they were going? All for his usual political theater BS. You GTFO

My contention is he didn't "kidnap" them as Fried posted.

The only reason I’m for it is because it likely kills the political career of that white boot wearing Oompa Loompa, fake tough guy POS.

Then how would you classify what was done given he went outside of his jurisdiction to Texas to find the migrants?
Not "kidnapping".

If he was "kidnapping" people I think the Biden DOJ would have charged him.
 
A effective political stunt.
This is the definition of kidnapping. Given that he and the private airline owners are being sued for their actions, the illegality is in play.

Kidnapping or abduction is the unlawful abduction and confinement of a person against their will. Kidnapping is typically but not necessarily accomplished by use of force or fear, but it is still kidnapping if a person is fraudulently enticed into confinement. There must be movement, however, not only false imprisonment.

What's the status of those kidnapping charges against DeSantis?
 
Sure seems like Patel will have to withdraw next. Hard to see someone who thinks like this becoming the next FBI Director.

“We’re going to come after the people in the media who lied about American citizens, who helped Joe Biden rig presidential elections,” Patel said then. “Whether it’s criminally or civilly, we’ll figure that out.”

A local news reporter asked Grassley about Patel during a conference call. This is the transcript of his answer:

He was asked about Trump's nomination of lawyer Kash Patel to replace FBI Director Christopher Wray. In Grassley's view the FBI field offices, such as the one in Omaha, do good work but the FBI administration in Washington D.C needs reform. He thinks Patel is reform-minded.

Grassley: "I'm going to make my judgment on the fact that we don't further have political interference in the work of the FBI."

I asked him about Patel's unsubstantiated claims that the 2020 election was stolen and his threats to "come after" the people he claims rigged the election.

Katrina: “I'm curious, given your desire for reform and your desire to restore trust in that agency, do you have concerns about those kinds of comments?”

Grassley: "The things you bring up about the nominee are things of the past and I'm looking at somebody that can be forceful in reestablishing public confidence in the FBI."
 
If DeSantis was given a cabinet position I just can't see it lasting for very long. DeSantis has too strong of his own independent personality for there not to be big clashes with Trump.

If DeSantis was smart he wouldn't take the post because he could find himself without position 3 weeks after taking it.

Like so many of Bonespur's failed appointments from dumpster fire administration #1.
