You could roll a 3-sided die with those choices, and I think whatever turns up is still a winner.

I hope RD didn't screw himself running against Trump in 24. I still think a lot of MAGA dislikes him over that. He was also not a great campaigner. But of the 3 I'd say he's the most slam dunk to be the best president of all time. On the other hand if we could get him to the USSC, he'd be a thorn in the side of the left for 30+ years.

My preferences:

1) Rubio
2) Vance
3) Desantis

But like you said, I'd vote for and support any one of those three.

They are sharp, quick on their feet during interviews or debates and can swat down the BS talking points that dumbs*&t-o-crats and their acolytes in the media throw at them.

I'd love to see those three meet together publicly before any campaigns started and show a united front against leftism of all sorts and commit to fact-based, respectful campaigns and each to fully supporting the ultimate Primary winner in the general election. Highlight that they may be opponents in the primaries, but they are not enemies.

DMN desperately trying to give all their attention to the 5 people outside listening to Beto whine and call it a "powerful counter protest" so they don't have to cover the tens of thousands inside

A protester just interrupted Vice President JD Vance waving both a Mexican flag & a Palestinian Authority flag.

Without missing a beat, Vance replied, “If you love Mexico so much, then get your a** over there.”

The RNC Convention erupted with cheers & chants of, “USA!”

LOL. Looks like a Black man with the Mexican and Palestinian Flag wave.

Even if the R's take a hit this November (as is typical of a mid-term), I think any of those three will come out focused and swinging in 2028.

Arguably the best potential choices the GOP has ever seen collectively.

Any of them would take the good parts of the Trump era and put their own stamp on it.

Rubio is still my #1, but JD is great from the platform

We have potentially 3 absolute topnotch candidates. All 3 would be outstanding presidents. Our bench is deep.

Hannity I believe had McCormick on and said he should consider running.

I don't think the R senator from PA could sniff the bench much less rise off it.

At this point, it's hard not to see JD Vance have the initial lead, but Rubio does continue to shine on several major fronts and that will be hard to ignore.

Keep in mind only JD is exempt from Hatch Act. I am beginning to be convinced Leavitt resigned for Hatch Act reasons. She's just too strong a voice to be restrained by the rules of politicking from the press podium.

I like Vance and Rubio but Brandon Gill is at the top of my list.

He will be ineligible by about 35 days.

I did just learn, even though he mis my representative, that he is married to Dinesh DSouza's daughter.

Flag waver was likely one of the enraged gender confused theater kids from the Elm Fork John Brown Gun Club.

JD Vance will be 48 and will be on of the best presidents we've ever had. Right wing Populism IS actual conservatism, and he'll be the Pat Buchanan we always deserved but never got; thanks to that snake William F Buckley

I was wondering about that . My first thought was "is he old enough". R's have a deep bench of qualified POTUS candidates . D's have who… ?

We do have a plethora of valid choices. I kind of wish we could put one of them in cryo for a few years!
