You aren't wrong. But in this case DeSantis is a good solid choice with policy that I agree with. If the media annoints DeSantis, so be it. I think he would do good things. He has stood his ground against to the feds against all the recent insanity and won. He could beat Biden and the country would be at least marginally better.
That's a clue, actually. Since these days the fastest way to rally the GOP base around someone is to tell the base how much the left hates him/her (see:Trump), the fact that "right" media does not afford Rand such "left hate" coverage that he would otherwise clearly deserve, means the "right" media does not want the base rallying around him. They're being directed (by the CIA/CFR implanted in the news rooms) to rally the base around DeSantis, and Abbott to a lesser extent. The next logical step in the authoritarian playbook is to attempt to do away with nominating contests entirely and crown a nominee without opposition. That pretty much took place already with Biden and the DNC. A few primaries, fake staged rallies, and the dude never even left his basement after SC. The left said "sure, sounds good!" The GOP is next. Media and shill ops are clearly laying the foundation for it. Trump kicked it off by cancelling most primaries last time cuz, ya know, teh covis, also.
Heard it. Got anything new? Don't forget to mention how important SCOTUS picks are too.

A Drag Queen-Loving Military Can’t Defend You. Go Buy an ‘Assault’ Rifle
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2...assault-rifle/
John Nolte 23 Jun 2021
When the U.S. military starts sanctioning drag queen shows, it’s time to buy an “assault rifle,” or ten.
Remember back in 2007 when Rick Santorum said, If we allow homosexuals to serve openly in the military, within 15 years this same military will be putting on drag shows?
And then, do you remember how the fake media freaked out and attacked Santorum over that — all the fury over his “outrageous” and “inflammatory” fear-mongering!
Well, you probably don’t remember that because it didn’t happen.
But it could have.
Just like this could have happened…
REPUBLICAN: If we allow same-sex marriage, within ten years drag queens will be performing in front of small children in public libraries.
JAKE TAPPER: That is outrageous fear-mongering and bigotry!
And yet, here we are.
And, uh, here we are.
How far is this $#@! gonna go? That’s a fair question when you recall how ridiculous the idea of allowing Drag Queen Story Hour would’ve sounded just a few years ago.
At this rate, in just a few years the left will be putting on live sex shows using children. Go ahead and pretend to be outraged over that prediction, but the left is nearly there already. Look at how this 11-year-old drag queen. And it’s not the radical left. The 11-year-old was celebrated on NBC News.
If you don't support Drag Queens reading to small children, you hold "white supremacist beliefs." #LeftistLogic https://t.co/fFE2wNVNuV

Okay, one small thing before we get to my primary point… You’ll note that in the headline I’ve deliberately placed quote marks around the word “assault.” This is my gift to the gun pedants who will now not have to waste an afternoon raging in the comments about how there’s no such thing as an “assault” rifle. You’re welcome. Get a life.
So on top of providing sex-change surgeries and trolling civilians on Twitter and teaching the pro-racist, anti-science Critical Race Theory, the U.S. military is now sanctioning drag queen shows and defending this with a statement that should make every normal person’s skin crawl:
The [drag show] … provided an opportunity for attendees to learn more about the history and significance of drag performance art within the LGBT+ community.
Ensuring our ranks reflect and are inclusive of the American people is essential to the morale, cohesion, and readiness of the military. Nellis Air Force Base is committed to providing and championing an environment that is characterized by equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion.
In other words, the military’s doomed.
I don’t say that lightly. But the military cannot survive without a being professional monoculture devoted to protecting a country they love and believe in.
But as we now know, the military is promoting multi-culturalism instead of a mono-culture and using Critical Race Theory to teach the ranks to hate America.
The military is doomed, which means you are more vulnerable than ever before and you need to run out today and purchase what is incorrectly called an “assault rifle.” One is good. Ten is better.
To recap…
Democrats are emptying prisons of violent criminals.
Democrats are allowing the left-wing terrorists in Antifa and Black Lives Matter to rampage without penalty.
Democrats are overseeing a violent crime explosion.
Democrats have turned the U.S. military into an anti-American freak show.
Let me repeat: You must, right now, run out and purchase what is incorrectly called an “assault rifle.” You must be able to protect yourself because no one else is going to protect you, most especially a military focused on sex changes, diversity training, and books that declare America an evil not worth defending.
Buy guns.
Buy ammo.
Learn how to use your guns.
Pray that you never need to.

Oh, and get the hell out of Democrat-run cities, which is where all the racism, hate crimes, pollution, homelessness, violence, despair, broken schools, and poverty is located.
Move to the relative paradise of Rural MAGA Land, where we all own guns and there are no gun violence crises, where people of all races and creeds live together in harmony and look after one another; where the streets are safe, where the air and water are clean, where life is good and people are normal, where we all live and let live…

This link should help explain that:
He's a Trump wanna-be but only much more disciplined, scripted opportunist and reliable puppet/PR officers of 'follow the money' leadership. Trump also played role of a puppet off and on but was an unreliable puppet relatively and occasionally went off the script too.So called "settler's man" is now inching ahead ...
If they both became contenders in 2024 primaries, I'd support Trump over him for fun of watching Trump turn him into another "Rubio" if nothing else.
On a side note, there is no Rubio in this poll

That's slightly encouraging, then. I'd thought that Trump's time in office ran out the clock on the dispossessed's ability to regain control of their own government. If they are still investing in martialing that political will (at the national level) then maybe there is actually still enough of it left to actually change the course of this ship.
At Nellis Air Force Base last week, pilots were gathered around a different kind of runway. That's because the southern Nevada post, home to one of the most advanced air combat programs in the service, made the controversial decision to host its first-ever drag queen show. To the amusement of America's enemies, some of our most skilled servicemen and women spent their Thursday night "discover[ing] the significance of drag in the LGBT+ community" at a base club -- a lesson sure to please their transgender activist-in-chief.
Welcome to the Biden military: you can't have a Bible on the table, but you can have heels in your footlocker. An Air Force veteran posted a picture of the digital flyer over the weekend, which read, "DRAG-U-NELLIS" and "CLASS IS IN SESSION" surrounded by pictures of Coco Montrese, Makena Knight, and Alexis Mateo. "I guess the airmen at Nellis have completely mastered air and ground combat, so they can relax with an event that has grown men in dresses twerking; very cool!" he tweeted.
When Breitbart asked for comment, Nellis officials seemed almost proud of the fact that they were hosting this kind of gathering. They confirmed that, yes, the 99th Air Base Wing held the event and explained that it was sponsored by a private organization. But the spokesperson insisted that it was important to "provid[e] an opportunity for attendees to learn more about the history and significance of drag performance art within the LGBT+ community." Inclusivity, the official went on, "is essential to the morale, cohesion, and readiness of the military. Nellis Air Force Base is committed to providing and championing an environment that is characterized by equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion."
No doubt our mastery of the catwalk will strike terror in the hearts of Iran and China, where leaders must be looking on with glee at this administration's social preoccupations. According to the base website, Nellis is where pilots undergo "the most demanding... air combat training in the country." North Korea will be relieved to know that this sophisticated training has taken a backseat to nights of transgender frolicking. But then, that's all this administration has had on its radar since taking over. Like Barack Obama, Biden has never seen our troops as anything but a force for social change.
Of course, the irony is that while the military defends drag queen acts on military installations, they aren't extending Christians troops the same tolerance. At least two active-duty service members -- Lt. Colonel Matthew Lohmeire and Chaplain Andrew Calvert -- have been fired or suspended in the last few weeks for daring to talk openly about the Pentagon's new policies. "My Republican colleagues and I hear regularly from active duty and retired service members that even holding conservative values is now enough to endanger a service member's military career," Rep. Mike Rogers (Ala.) told Politico. He and his GOP colleagues are racing to put together legislation that would combat the wave of targeting and censorship.
In the meantime, conservatives watch helplessly as the proud warfighting ethos that Donald Trump restored is replaced with a circus of LGBT activism. Just ask yourself: when was the last time you read a headline about the military that actually had to do with national defense? Instead, we're talking about climate change, extremism "stand downs," critical race theory, rainbow flags, and maternity flight suits. The Defense Department, NRO's John Rossomando warns, is a case study in "misplaced priorities rooted in myths." It's a woke military focused on politics, not "lethality and readiness," one former undersecretary of Defense under George H.W. Bush argued. "It will excel in virtue signaling and fail at winning battles..." Including the one for the heart and soul of America's proud fighting force.

According to their Wiki, they apparently haven't held a convention since around 2015. Suddenly it's a news worthy barometer of popularity that's spread across all online conservative and libertarian discussion sites and news sites? Smells like bs.

I never heard of Burgess Owens. I like Herschel Walker. I think Candace Owens is a shock jock. She makes some good points, but then does some things just for attention. And supposedly she was liberal until some other liberals called her out for doxxing minors on her anti bully website...so she became conservative. Odd reason to change ships. Just saying. Kimberly Klacik is hot! (Sexist for me to say that I know). I don't know who made her otherwise great campaign ad that unfortunately misspelled Baltimore. TBH Candace Owens is hot. And what about Katrina Pearson! (Okay. I've been single too long and it's showing. I am supposed to be talking about their polices and how well the articulate them and all that. Sorry.) I love me some Stacey Dash. (Stop it man! Stop it!) There are some black YouTubers that I think show a lot of promise. Colin Noir is awesome on the 2nd amendment. (I have no idea about any of his other views). I kind of go back and forth on "The Amazing Lucas." Sometimes he's on point and sometimes I think he's just trolling. I consider officer Tatum a cop boot-licking embarrassment. Seriously, he defended the lady cop that said "taser...taser...taser" and then shot and killed a man with her pistol.
Anyhow...I think this was Candace Owen's best moment. She had a great interview with Marc Lamont Hill and even though they agreed on almost nothing, it was very respectful and she did a great job articulating her points.
Edit: Here is "The Amazing Lucas" doing a video about Kim Klacik going after Candace Owens. And Officer Tatum went after Kim Klacik. Anyhow, again I don't hate Candace but I think she goes for shock value. But I can't stand Tatum.
Tatum bootlicking:
"The cop was wrong but...." Nope. She was wrong period. A cop who can't tell the difference between a gun and a taser doesn't deserve to be on the force. And trying to mitigate this by talking about all the wrong Daunte Wright did before that is just bootlicking. (I know you didn't bring up Tatum, but I've seen people on this forum reference this jackass before.)
There are black conservatives who are trying to sell conservatism to a broader community that are turned off by the officer Tatums and the Candace Owens' of the world. It's a tough sell sometimes.
Another black conservative worth listening to IMO:
In the description of this video, "Black Guns Matter" channel owner writes:
STOP listening to these fake ass “conservatives.” They don’t conserve the constitution, tax dollars, the concept of limited government, ANYTHING.
And yeah...he can't stand Tatum either.
Here is a promising young black conservative taking on liberal media mogul (in his own mind anyway) Roland Martin for prioritizing voting over education.
There's also that young cat that spoke at the RNC last year and made news years ago taking Obama to task on YouTube while still in high school. I can't think of his name at the moment.

I think the left hatred for Rand is multifactorial. Ron was consistent. Rand is not. I don't think Ron would have signed off on the Tom Cotton letter. In fact I'm certain he wouldn't have. And Ron wouldn't have picked a fight with an ad hominem attack against Ilhan Omar. "If you have a problem with 'Merika go back to your home $#@!ry!" I know (or at least I think) Rand did those things to placate the teocons. But, for some odd reason, he didn't get the traction with the teocons that I thought he would. He got enough traction to win the senate, and I believe he could stay in the senate as long as Strom Thurman using his current formula if he wished. But it's like the teocons know "Yeah...you're not really with us but thanks for the assists" and the liberals think the same thing.
Back to Desantis, I despise him now and I think you might after learning this. His "anti vaccine passport bill" gives the Florida equivalent of Dr. Fauci the power, under a health emergency declared by himself, to do forced vaccinations and quarantines.

Fox News Flash top headlines for July 4
Trump makes no mention of DeSantis at Florida rally
Your weekly look at the latest developments, buzz, and speculation in the next race for the White House
By Paul Steinhauser | Fox News
Former President Donald Trump hit all the high notes at his second campaign style rally since leaving the White House.
Trump, holding court at the Sarasota Fairgrounds in southwest Florida in front of a enthusiastic and loud crowd, took aim at his successor, President Biden, as he spotlighted the issues of crime and immigration. Trump charged that "our streets are being overtaken by vicious thugs and bloodthirsty criminals," and claiming that "our border is being erased before our very eyes."
DESANTIS AIDES DENY REPORTS THAT GOVERNOR URGED TRUMP TO CANCEL RALLY
A week after he held his first post presidency rally in Ohio, Trump on Saturday night also spotlighted the culture wars, arguing that "Critical Race Theory is being shoved down our children’s throats and into the ranks of our military." And he zeroed in on the political battle over transgender rights, emphasizing that "men are allowed to play in women’s sports, so unfair, so crazy."

He also once again teased a potential 2024 presidential run to try and return to the White House, saying "we are looking at the election, more than looking at it," which elicited cheers from the crowd.
And the former president jabbed at New York City prosecutors for their move Thursday to indict the Trump Organization and its chief financial officer on tax fraud and conspiracy charges, calling it "prosecutorial misconduct."
But there was one glaring omission from the former president’s roughly 90 minute speech in the Sunshine State – he didn’t mention his ally and fellow Republican – Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Trump reportedly 'f---ing hates' Ron DeSantis
Brendan Morrow, Staff Writer
Fri, September 3, 2021
As former President Donald Trump possibly eyes a 2024 run, a new report suggests there's one other potential contender whose popularity he really "resents": Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R).
A report from Vanity Fair this week delves into how various Republicans are "testing the waters" for the 2024 presidential primaries in case Trump doesn't decide to seek the GOP nomination, and among the likely contenders in that scenario would be DeSantis. But the report describes the fact that the Florida governor's "biggest challenge" may be his "fraught relationship" with the 45th president.
"Trump f---ing hates DeSantis," a Trump confidant told Vanity Fair. "He just resents his popularity."
