Congressman Ron DeSantis was very upset about Trump “being very positive about Putin”, wanted more lethal aids for Ukraine. Right now people are still suffering, while McConnell is still working hard to send more money to Ukraine. In the meantime this is the guy GOPe is pushing. pic.twitter.com/KptcFcLZIa

More:
For those who may say that was from years ago, this was him this year, calling Putin a “gas station attendant” while being just a governor. Imagine what he would do if he became the president. You don’t provoke a country with a large amount of nuclear warheads like this. pic.twitter.com/4IH7yY2PyL

And Afghanistan:
He’s also a strong advocate for military ops in Afghanistan, said “we need to use everything in our arsenal”. Trump however, made a concrete plan to get troops out of there, though the evacuation was poorly executed by Biden. Trump is not a warmonger, can’t say the same for Lil D pic.twitter.com/fviqJQD6Lv

Unlike with being a governor, foreign policy has a massive role to play in being the president. The fate of the entire nation is at stake.
Making foreign policies is a major part of being POTUS. Especially on wars. And yet, based on the record, “Trump without baggage” does not even remotely resemble Trump on this. Instead, he has almost the exact same stance as Bushes and McCain. And it’s very dangerous.

Of course, these select quotes are not dispositive, they merely serve as evidence that DeSantis will need to clarify his foreign policy stance as he emerges from one of the greatest (if not the greatest) governorships to a new role as a politician with national ambitions. There is time for him to clarify, and evolve his positions if necessary. Both DeSantis and Trump are excellent, and to make them even more excellent we do them a service not to withhold constructive criticism. And, of course, we must give credit where it is due. DeSantis is rightly lauded as a hero for his brave, principled, and wise leadership during the Covid era. Just a few days ago, he took yet another important step toward accountability for the criminals who have foisted the Covid regime upon the country.
