Interesting. I knew he was a JAG but he’s written of often as a Navy Seal. Probably let’s the confusion live for a reason.

DeSantis was not a Navy Seal. DeSantis deployed to Iraq as legal counsel to a SEAL commander during the 2007 surge of US troops.

There are no reasonable Republicans left. None of the names currently being bandied about are less radical than Trump, they are just possibly more palatable - with the exception of DeSantis, who seems determined to out Trump tfg . The Democrats need to up their messaging game, which has always been terrible , and register people to vote as fast as they can. The soul of America is indeed on the line.

I think messaging is the Ds biggest problem, John, though they are appearing to show some early signs of organizational strength and that they have gotten the message about their messaging.

Gets even madder if we elect a Republican next year, bro. Can't happen. Not Trump, not DeSantis, or anyone else with an R next to their name.
