Trump is unopposed at this point. Who should he debate?
It worked for Ron in 2018
It's almost like 2020 was an anomaly
That needs to be avenged
Biden is looking back at 2020. He's running against ultra maga. Doesn't matter if its Trump or DeSantis
So who is he supposed to debate?
There have been dueling legal opinions about whether Florida’s existing “resign-to-run” law would apply to someone running for president or vice president. But GOP legislators have opted to remove any doubts with this legislative proposal.
“If there is ambiguity, and it’s been something that’s been talked about — especially ad nauseam since November if not longer — then let’s do it, let’s clarify it,” said Republican state Sen. Danny Burgess, the chair of the Senate Ethics and Elections Committee. “That way, should we be fortunate enough to have a president or vice president from Florida one day, we’ve cleared that air.”
The DeSantis campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The change by GOP legislators is likely to spark sharp criticism from Trump allies who had already been critical of lawmakers for discussing it previously. The Trump campaign earlier this month put out a statement zinging DeSantis over his recent travels and noted that he had resigned from his post in Congress while he was campaigning for governor the first time. Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung called it a “massive flip-flop.”
Florida law currently requires anyone running for a new office to put in an irrevocable letter of resignation ahead of qualifying if the terms of the two offices overlap. The law was changed in 2007 to open the door for then-Gov. Charlie Crist to seek the vice presidency, but legislators reversed course in 2018 and added back a requirement that someone seeking federal office would have to submit their resignation letter ahead of the actual election.
The 2018 law did include a carve-out for someone whose term is about to end, but that would not apply to DeSantis, who was just reelected last year.
Right after DeSantis’s blowout reelection win, the state’s two legislative leaders said they were willing to alter the existing law in order to help a potential candidacy. But for the first seven weeks of this year’s legislative session, GOP legislators did not release any actual proposals.
The Senate on Tuesday afternoon released a nearly 100-page rewrite of this year’s election bills that spells out that the state’s qualifying requirements — including the resign-to-run provision — do not apply to those running for president and vice president.

Trump is crying today about a “rigged” election in 2020.
If anyone thinks rehashing that is a winning strategy, they have shit for brains. Sorry, no one but the MAGA’s want to roll around in that slop again.
But once again it’s all about poor little Trump. Get the fuck over it and pull in the people who told you to fuck off in 2020.
