President Donald Trump has endorsed Florida Senator Marco Rubio for re-election. This has angered many MAGA supporters who view Rubio, correctly, as a DeceptiCon establishment figure. However, there is a pragmatic political approach evident that should be considered.
First, it must always be remembered that the Republican party is a private club. The RNC is part of that private club. Both the Democrat Party and the Republican Party are private clubs. There are no federal, state or local election laws or rules that require club participation in order to run for elected office. The clubs exist to facilitate the infrastructure of a process that is guided by inside rules made by club members.
Second, within the MAGA community there has been a recent argument about the Republican party that essentially boils down to this: (A) President Trump should start a new party; a new club; and/or (B) President Trump should reform the Republican club from within, removing the establishment elements.
Within the club President Trump can influence the rules and agenda, but the club itself must support them. As we saw in 2016 there is a significant portion of the club who do not want Donald Trump within it. Thus all moves to influence the club should be cast against this reality.
President Trump endorsing a club member should not be a surprise to those who have advocated for Trump to take-over the republican party. Rubio has enough support within the club that a non-endorsement, or Trump’s support for a primary challenge, would exhaust a lot of political capital and ultimately result in a fight within the club.

While balancing the economic needs of the people, and keeping the majority of the state functioning and open, DeSantis prioritized protecting the most vulnerable elderly citizens; and then, once available, coordinating the COVID vaccine for that vulnerable population by expediting a massive distribution network to be the first state with over one million doses administered for those who wanted it. In addition DeSantis allowed local communities to make their own decisions about mask wearing and school opening.

Direct targeting of Donald Trump has not succeeded. Direct attacks against Donald Trump and his organization and personal finances have not succeeded. The DOJ is not getting the results they need…. So now they need a backdoor, some leverage, from somewhere, anywhere, where they can use that leverage to destroy their enemy. THAT is what’s going on.
