Desantis is a no hoper outside of Florida.

This is quite concerning, if accurate. Of course, his base couldn't give a flying f--k about any of this, so they'll blindly mash the Republican button and to hell with what happens next 😠
I would love to say at this point that Trump doesn't have a hope in hell, but everyone said that in 2016 and look what happened.
Mind you - I remember the Republican Party back them couldn't unite on a single candidate apart from Trump, which basically allowed him to clear the field while the rest of the Republicans were caught up in in-fighting and throwing insults at each other (as well as Trump).
The NY Times - E. Jean Carroll Seeks New Damages From Trump for Comments on CNN
breaking
E. Jean Carroll, who this month won $5 million in damages from former President Donald J. Trump, is now seeking a “very substantial” additional amount in response to his insults on a CNN program just a day after she won her sexual abuse and defamation case.
Ms. Carroll’s filing Monday in Manhattan federal court seeks to intensify the financial pain for Mr. Trump. ...
Monday’s filing came in a separate defamation lawsuit that Ms. Carroll had filed in 2019 against Mr. Trump, 76, which is before the same judge who presided in the civil trial.
The older case stemmed from comments Mr. Trump made that year, shortly after she said that he had raped her in a Manhattan department store dressing room in the mid-1990s.
That lawsuit had been sidetracked by appeals, but is still pending.
Excellent news! 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

He is running for vice president. This is just how he is making himself known.

I read it as he was running for president, not vice president.

You missed my dash of irony. He knows perfectly well that he hasn't got a hope of winning the nomination but he does have a hope of being picked for veep. This is just a ploy to increase his national recognition and maybe Trump's interest.
I have to reluctantly say that he is a very good public speaker, much better than anyone else on either side that I have heard. He would be a valuable addition to any presidential ticket. It doesn't hurt that he is black and from humble beginnings.

CNN"Good luck to Senator Tim Scott in entering the Republican Presidential Primary Race. It is rapidly loading up with lots of people, and Tim is a big step up from Ron DeSanctimonious, who is totally unelectable. I got Opportunity Zones done with Tim, a big deal that has been highly successful. Good luck Tim!," Trump posted on Truth Social.

IMHO, Scott's candidacy will be, for several reasons, a positive for the Dems. First, he'll likely become popular with Republicans who don't want a bar of Trump or DeSantis. Which will, when the results of his boosting Scott finally become obvious to Donny Dimwit, enrage him further. Especially if Scott starts magnanimously hinting at the possible suitability of either Don or Ron as Vice. And that will also enrage Ron. Second point, Tim Scott, given his background and rapid rise to fame, will almost certainly have bodies in his backyard, and if Don, Ron and their acolytes, as insurance, haven't already released packs of cadaver hounds, I'll be very surprised.
