He seems like it, intervening in Venezuela and Guyana's foreign affairs, got money from the once-heir of the New York Yankees franchise, etc.

Doubtful. The guy has zero charisma and was only lucky to have run against either weak opponents or in good Republican years, each time winning by about one percentage point. He may run for the White House in 2024, but I don't see him getting past Iowa.

No, he lacks the charisma or the debating skills to be a viable candidate on the national level.

Also, why did he win in 2010, 2014 and 2018 by barely 1 point?

Is he a good candidate, or is he lucky despite his horrible business record?

He's great on paper but he lacks campaign skills, similar to Rubio.

Campaigning in Florida is just too different than the rest of the country?

I wouldn't support him, however, I'd rather have a president who looks like a penis than a president who actually is one.

Medicare fraud is usually a disqualifying trait in states that aren't a meme for being batsh!t crazy.

I mean anyone could run for president regardless if they're presidential material or not. I think he could be a viable candidate in 2024 but I don't see him being the nominee (DeSantis would have a better chance).

No, he looks like the villain from National Treasure 2.

No, he lacks the charisma or the debating skills to be a viable candidate on the national level.

In all seriousness, this.  Plus he'd be over 70.

I wouldn't support him, however, I'd rather have a president who looks like a penis than a president who actually is one.

LMAO!

Ron DeSantis had a campaign ad about building the wall with his kid out of toys. I think it would be funny if he had one campaign ad to show he's "Trump material" by showing him chasing and picking up his cat.

This.

And he'd most likely lose to the Democrat if he got the nomination.

Beating the FL Democrats isn't the same as winning a presidential election.

There's that. I don't know why they all haven't just been sacked down there after losing 5 elections in a row.
