2024 R race:

[Reynolds]

Are you saying that one issue makes him a RINO?

That one is enough.
Kind of like breaking into one house makes you a burglar. I wouldn't vote for that piece of scum for poop scooper.

I think Cruz could make a good POTUS, BUT
At the moment his senority in the Senate is 54 out of a hundred - - after this years election, he might go 5-10 higher - and then in 2024 he could be in the top 30 and that would give him much more pull.

Cruz is a moderate and has sold out conservatives more than once. Go to liberty score and look up his voting record. He has an 18% liberal voting record. liberty-score-frontend

Cruz is a moderate and has sold out conservatives more than once. Go to liberty score and look up his voting record. He has an 18% liberal voting record. liberty-score-frontend

Which means his conservative score is 82%
+ just because he voted for a liberal issue - does not mean it was bad

But more importantly -it is very hard for a hard right conservative to win.
The more moderate - the better chance he has of winning.

Brother, once the republicans legislatures in those key states certified their elections and appointed electors, the VP had no option but to follow the constitution.

He did not have the authority to do what you wanted him to do. If you want to blame someone, look at repubs in key swing states that certified the results and appointed electors.

Additionally, you might want to point blame at the people, including Trump, who said he had the authority as VP to challenge the results. He followed the constitution in the face of incredible pressure from his own pres. That takes courage.

Pence may be a little “dry”, but he would be a good pres.

peace to you

I don’t see him as a “wimp”. He isn’t Trump. He’s not going to be an “in your face” all the time kind of pres. That might be a nice change. Between Biden “you’re a lying two faced pony soldier” and Trump “I like my heroes not to get captured”, it might be nice to see some class and restraint from the POTUS.

I do believe he will fight for what he believes and he has a strong conservative agenda.

peace to you

The only real problem I have with Cruz is that every time he speaks it’s as if he is in a formal debate at Harvard. For some reason, he just doesn’t connect with me, he seems “aloof”, like he’s explaining or lecturing instead of empathizing.

peace to you

I agree with the poster above - Cruz simply lacks charisma, although it's possible to win without having so much (Romney, Biden). Rand Paul has the same problem but I like his take on that Fauci fraud.

I'll address my issues with that rating in the other thread, but I think the nominee will be Trump if his health holds up. Otherwise, it will be Cruz or DeSantis, the latter of which has charisma in spades.

 

[alexander284]

I have to admit: DeSantis is an intriguing option.

i don't believe he will fight. I believe he will fail to do what is needed to avoid a fight. He is a strong conservative but he is not what this country needs right now. We need a fighter.
