I think I still prefer Trump and DeSantis is probably still my second pick.

I don’t really trust Vivek cuz he seemed to duck out on a straight answer to the 2A question. Since I’m a bit of 2A fanatic that was a major red flag (pun intended). Probably didn’t help that I saw something online earlier about him having taken Soros money for business school.

I went in not knowing jack shit about most of the others but especially unknown to me were Nikki Haley, Asa Hutchinson, Tim Scott, and Doug Burgum. Fuck; I probably wouldn’t even have known who Christie was either if it wasn’t for Alice making fun of him all over here lol. Don’t think I’m a fan of Hutchinson at all.

Was kinda surprised that I mostly liked a lot of Haley and Burgum’s points. Not sure I agreed about Ukraine/Israel but she did make some fair points even on that. But if Trump and DeSantis weren’t there, I’d consider them.

Still wish my boy Josh Hawley had run tho

      yeah that part wasn’t so great. i guess the thing I liked about her was pointing out the limitations of what the position of president can actually do. I feel like a lot of the debate is basically what amounts to “I’m for this” but realistically if you had house or senate packed with dems, then a republican pres would still be pretty limited. was just refreshing to see someone actualy acknowledge that i guess.

      But like I said, wasn’t my 1st or 2nd pick or anything.
