Opinion
Dear Friends,
Just a few remarks about Wednesday’s Republican Debate. Frankly, I was not overly impressed!
DeSantis, Haley, and Scott gave strong presentations that indicated they could do the job and straighten out the Biden nightmare, however nobody really presented anything that at this time could be considered a breakthrough that could give Trump a contest.
DeSantis claimed he would put Troops on the border and use deadly force against the Cartels and indeed I liked that idea !
Fat loudmouth Christie is a total jerk and totally mean-spirited. Ramaswamy, although personable, doesn’t want to fund Israel or the Ukraine. I refuse to consider him. Former VP Pence was obtuse and has no shot. The rest of the field are not worth mentioning!
I still say Trump should have been there and ultimately it could hurt him. On Thursday, he got arrested in Georgia! I’ll write more about that this weekend.
Regardless, the eventual GOP nominee — whether it be Trump or not — will be the only way this country has a chance at continuing to be a free country with continued prosperity. Vote Republican or your life as you know it will be over.
We will see?
As always your comments are welcome and appreciated.
Sincerely yours,
JUDSON Bennett-Coastal Network
