In Virginia the governor can only one run one term at a time. He could be back and in a greater numbers but not consecutively

He’s running for president. And honestly, with Trump and DeSantis tearing each other apart, I think Youngkin has a good shot coming in and looking very reasonable for GOP.

Virginia Governorship gave him the baseline to run for president just like FL governship did for DeSantis.

Remember how important local politics are. VOTE!

Mark my words, Glenn Youngkin will get less than 2% of the primary vote. maybe less than 1%. I doubt he will even win VA. He's done absolutely nothing of note that he can point to, unless his strategy is to say "well I would've been a strong conservative big boy like DeSantis, but the liberals wouldn't let me." People need a reason to vote for someone, and theres absolutely nothing of note Youngkin can say he's done in this state other than win. He's toast.

I tend agree with the central premise that Trump and DeSantis may eat eat each other alive, but it could also be over the second Trump calls DeSantis "Miss Florida" in the debates. That said, should the big two eat each other alive, I just can't see Youngkin being the one to break through to victory.

Of course - whoever wins, we lose. feel free to bookmark this post and own me the day Youngkin cruises to a 49 state electoral victory 😂

It's vital that trumpkin be cast as the wolf in sheep's clothing that he is. We can't let him get away with appearing as a moderate republican on the national stage like he did in VA
