<p>I’m stoked! ; In the 2024 Presidential elections, we have three likely candidates who are well qualified to take over from a dismal Biden Administration, rebuild America and take us forward. ;</p>



<p>Any of these three would be able to deal with Russia, China, Iran and any other threat that comes along. Any of them will protect our children from the Democrat predators who want to groom them for new sexual identities. ;</p>



<p>Any of them will protect our gun rights, deal with crime, protect our voting rights, and much more. Any of them will be able to put our country back on track and improve our economy.</p>



<p>But which is the best?</p>



<p><strong>Mike Pompeo</strong> &#8211; You may have noticed that Mike has been raising his profile a bit (and has slimmed down!). He is displaying loyalty to Trump and likely will not run for President if Trump runs again.</p>



<p><strong><em> ;Pros</em></strong>: ; Mike is always the smartest guy in the room. He was trusted by Trump and is responsible for many of Trump&#8217;s successful policies. ; He is an excellent negotiator and diplomat and knows how to conceive and execute strategic wins.</p>



<p>Mike  ;is competent far and above anyone else in government.  ;Anywhere. ;I’d pit him against Kissinger any day.  ;The world will be a more peaceful place with a more respected America with Mike Pompeo at the helm.</p>



<p><strong><em>Cons: </em></strong>Mike hasn’t “sat in the chair&#8221; as governor of a state as compared to DeSantis, nor does he have the business experience at Trump&#8217;s level.  ; ;Mike hasn’t been in the limelight as much as a Presidential candidate should be, he chose to support Trump largely in the background. These are problems of perception, though, I have confidence that Mike would be fantastic (maybe even the best of the three) as President. Getting America onboard will be a challenge.</p>



<p><strong>Ron DeSantis</strong> – He is obviously contemplating a run, perhaps even if Trump decides to run as well. I have no doubt he will be President someday. The only question is whether 2024 will be his year.</p>



<p><strong><em>Pros:</em></strong> Ron is beloved in Florida, he has made bold moves, and each has been the right move in my opinion. He knows how to fix problems, he knows people, he understands issues and goes about solving them intelligently and with common sense. He brooks no bulls&;^t.</p>



<p>The State of Florida is massively better off with him. I admired Rick Scott as governor, but I have to say Ron DeSantis is better. ; He is an excellent communicator, an excellent campaigner. If he is nominated he will win.</p>



<p><strong><em>Cons:</em></strong> ; While Ron would achieve domestic goals with alacrity, he is a question mark concerning international affairs. ; He doesn’t have the depth of experience Pompeo has in complex international issues and doesn’t quite have the peer to peer power-wielding experience that Trump has.</p>



<p><strong>Donald Trump</strong> – It looks like Trump is gearing up for another run.</p>



<p><strong><em>Pros</em></strong>: ; When Trump was President, things happened. He tackled the tough problems, he took them head-on and dealt with them. ; He met with Kim from North Korea, he went head-on with the Chinese, and he went tit for tat with Iran. ; Trump is a man who truly wants America to be great, he has no agenda other than that. He doesn’t play political games except to achieve worthy goals, he says exactly what he thinks (much to the chagrin of many).  ; ;</p>



<p>Trump knows how to wield power. He knows how people will react and he knows how to take risks and win. He knows how to surround himself with good people (like Pompeo).</p>



<p><strong><em>Cons: </em></strong> ;Trump’s biggest detraction is that the Democrats have made him into the great Satan. Trump is perhaps not careful with his words, but they are frankly not that bad. But the Democrats, under the leadership of evil queen Hillary, really wanted to be polarized, so every word Trump has said has been twisted into badness. </p>



<p>Trump has to carry the baggage of two bogus impeachment attempts and a stolen election. The media will not cover any of this in his favor. It doesn&#8217;t matter that he was exonerated and proof of Hillary&#8217;s conspiracies came to light.</p>



<p>His second potential issue is his age. He will be 78 in 2024. While Trump certainly hasn’t lost his mental acumen as Biden has, his energy levels might be questioned.</p>



<p><strong>Result</strong></p>



<p>My preference is still Trump. </p>



<p>I believe the world still needs some shaking up, it needs a leader of the free world who knows how to wield power and whose only motive is the greatness of America and the spreading of freedom and democracy. The world was nervous with Trump in power, he truly was a bull in a china shop (on purpose and enjoying it). ;</p>



<p>European leaders were nervous because he dared to be politically incorrect in getting a job done rather than accept inaction that allowed problems to fester. He told our NATO allies to start upping their defense budgets, he told them depending on Russia for oil was a mistake, and he started to work against China’s theft of intellectual property. On and on.  ;</p>



<p>And you know good and well that he will ensure the integrity of our elections.</p>



<p>And the looming problem is a crushing national debt.  ;Trump is the most likely to do something about it.</p>



<p>I prefer Trump even though I know it would be four years of constant hate mongering by the left. We need Trump that badly.</p>



<p>Between Ron DeSantis and Mike Pompeo, it is a toss-up as to who would be a better President. ; I&#8217;m thinking Mike would be better internationally, and DeSantis better domestically , but each would adapt quickly. They are both unbelievably talented and qualified. ; As it stands right now, I believe Ron DeSantis would win because he has the better political posture. But if Trump decides to back Pompeo it could be a decent race.</p>



<p>DeSantis vs. Trump? Hard to say. I believe Trump would win in an isolated race, but the liberal media will play a huge part in this and may swing it one way or the other.</p>



<p>Bottom line? ; All three are great. ; As I said, I’m STOKED on behalf of America. ; Better times lay ahead.</p>
