Your next president did a great podcast with the author of EuroTrash. I’ve yet to read the book, but plan on doing so soon. Brings up a lot of points I’ve made before about the left’s irrational love of Europe.

1. Europe is poorer than American

2. European healthcare has worse outcomes than America

3. Europe is more racist than America

4. European countries have less progressive taxes than American as measured by effective rates

So we're supposed to believe that a partisan podcast is going to give us a straight down the middle view of things. Right.

The left just likes the pomp and circumstance, aristocracy, socialism, etc.

That guy isn't going to be POTUS. He supports Red Flag laws so he's no better than a democrat.

Trump wasn’t strong on the 2nd amendment either. I’m still a fan

Trump's ban on bump stocks was a violation of personal property rights more than an attack on the 2A and it cost him my vote. Crenshaw's public support of Red Flag laws has cost him my vote in any potential election. I would actually donate to his opponent if he were to run. We can't afford to have people like him in the WH.

You can be both partisan and honest. I’m unaware of a non partisan source. Matt Tiabbi and Bari Weiss are both left wing, yet both do fair and honest reporting. Maybe you should reconsider your premise

I decided long ago to never again vote for someone cloaking themselves in conservatism when their record states otherwise. That and most all incumbents.

Besides he's not qualified to be POTUS, he's never held an executive level position.

I get that. I 100% agree there’s certain issues we can’t compromise on. I understand concerns over red flag laws, but I can support arguments regarding actual threats. That’s more of how I took his endorsement.

But what I like most is that people such as him is that they bring an intellectualism that we’ve missed in previous Republican presidents.

If he got some executive experience either in public or (preferably) the private sector and pledged to never sign any legislation containing red flag language I could change my mind.

Just curious as to why someone would prefer Crenshaw over Desantis. Im a libertarian, so honestly Desantis may end up being too right wing for me. I admit to not being any type of expert on Crenshaw, but he seems awfully Neocon-ish.

But if there’s anything about the points either in the video or that I’ve stated, that you don’t believe, let me know and I’ll gladly provide objective data to back up those claims

After DeSantis signed legislation stripping business owners of their rights I can't see how anyone could support him either.

Desantis is intriguing too. I’m open to either. I like Crenshaw’s military background, Harvard education, how I’ve seen him engage others and defend conservative ideology. Idk enough of Desantis to have any strong opposition

I believe Trump voiced support for red flag laws, too.
