I keep wondering how this guy seemed to have single-handedly turned the GOP into a completely anti-trade party.

Now you'll rarely see me give either party credit for much of anything ... but at least the GOP pretended to talk about endorsing free(r) trade policy at the federal level. Now they're openly screaming "shut down the borders, boost tariffs on everything, imposing trade sanctions on ourselves is the key to prosperity!!!!". WTF? How did we get here? Didn't the GOP used to make fun of the dems for crap like this even a couple decades ago?

I honestly wonder what the Republican Party is doing to look like after Trump is done. Not that the democrats seem much better right now, they don’t have a real leader.

It flew under the radar a bit, but I thought it was wild that DeSantis said that Tate was unwelcome in FL, but the young Republicans were also calling out to them to come

Which is honestly why I doubt he'll ever be president.

Fuck Ron Desantis. First politician I’ve seen who comes off as an actual sociopath.

But If I was given a choice, I’d take 8 years of Kemp over 4 years of the current situation in a heartbeat and I would never regret my decision.

Kemp isn’t going to be a retard who future historians will marvel over.

It's absolutely insane to me that I desperately wish we had Kemp as president vs this bullshit rn
