In reviewing the 2023 achievements realized by Gov. DeSantis and Florida's Legislature, pasting was the more practical option:

"What the GOP has achieved in Florida is astounding. Republican primary voters should credit the governor who spearheaded it.
There is there is not need

"In the space of just three months, Governor DeSantis and the Republican supermajority have created the largest school-choice program in American history, banned abortion after six weeks of pregnancy, made Florida the 26th constitutional-carry state in the nation, forced unions to abide by the Supreme Court's Janus decision, cut taxes by $2 billion, banned sex-change operations from being performed on minors, barred DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) initiatives in universities, expanded the use of mandatory E-Verify in the state, achieved a previously unthinkable collection of tort reforms, declared driver's licenses issued to out-of-state illegal immigrants invalid in Florida, prohibited state and local governments from considering ESG (environmental, social, and governance) factors in their contracting and investing decisions, extended last year's Parental Rights in Education law through twelfth grade, made it illegal for financial institutions to discriminate on the basis of "religious, political, or social beliefs," and prevented credit-card companies from tracking their customers' gun purchases."
===================================================================================
This legislative record is the most conservative I've seen in decades. It runs the gamut.  And for a governor who's alleged to be beholden to corporations, those stricter illegal immigration measures he spearheaded - E-verify, driver licenses et al - to prevent cheap illegal labor from pouring into the state must have been a real slap in the face to them. 

Now that's a substantive reply that addresses the achievement of Fla.s 2023 legislative achievements. 

Perhaps "W" even helped Desanitis spearhead the E-verify bill.

And Trump does so all for effect; to create a maelstrom and lure DeSantis off his game.

I  just think he  is  losing  it.

You could be spot on. I can't say for sure. I only know he's a walking contradiction at times and seems oblivious to it.

There  is  no doubt he  has  been unfairly targetted for  lawless prosecutions. He has withstood  more than i could  have. Its  just time to go to DeSantis.

All that is true.
But I have to add, that Trump proved not to be an alpha at all when it came to being a bold and decisive tactician, political or otherwise. That requires guts and the courage of ones convictions. Trump had none of that, IMO.

Did shutting down Florida help it in any way? Let me guess, that is not the BOLD AND DECISIVE you were talking about.

Your bull shit is wearing thin! You know the truth behind the first two, but lying about the UN was a step too far!
You know we are a truthful forum, even if the truth is painful to our side, but we never lie!

Trump praised Newsome for his agreement to work together, Cuomo was a big ass nothing, but your UN lie is another issue all its own.

Back it up with actual proof, and you know "Opinion Pieces" do not count as fact!
Do it or face a ban!

This from the guy who is in love with a psychotic murderer serving life. Yeah, your thought process carries a lot of credibility.

Ha ha. That's all you do is "guess," then attempt to present it as empirical information. Many here know that and let you just prattle on to yourself.

At least there is a form of "thought process." Not so much on your end though with the gibberish your posting(s) Whatcha talkin' bout here?

"Republican 2024 candidates criticize Trump for praising Kim Jong-un" -That's a June headline from, "The Guardian"
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jun/05/trump-kim-jong-un-praise-republican-presidential-candidates

Think you owe Idub an apology.
FYI: political ideologies are formed on the "opinions" of what's one's interpretation of the facts are.

I said before that Trump is moving to the left of DeSantis on the issues because he has no  grounding as a conservative.  This UN issue is just another example of that.
