18. :) But WHICH Republican would you like to see in his place?

Nov 2022

tRump just announced he's running for president, cuing up the subject for national attention. Pretending nearly half of all voters won't be voting red no matter who and ignoring them isn't an option, of course.

VP Pence is hinting he'll run, talking about tRump, AND pumping his new book about all of this, so there he is. But if not him, who should get this media exposure to offset The Orange Candidate?

How about "Two more years!"-Governor DeSantis instead? He's currently the strongest contender, even stronger than tRump, with Pence considered less likely than both. Shouldn't Pence be given the boot for him?

Rick Scott? Mike Pompeo? Ted Cruz? All contenders for president?
