Well, howdy there, internet people, it's Beau again.
So today we are going to talk about the mayor of Miami.
The mayor of Miami has announced that they are going to seek the Republican Party nomination
for president.
So we're going to talk about that, what it means, what the mayor may be trying to actually
accomplish and whether or not he has a shot.
Okay, so let's start there. Does he have a
shot of getting the Republican nomination?
Probably not. Probably not. It would be, this is a real long shot move
here. It doesn't seem incredibly likely that
Mayor Suarez gets anywhere. At the same time,
Nobody has ever accused this man of not understanding politics.
Nobody has ever accused him of being unintelligent.
He understands
that it is incredibly unlikely
that he actually gets the nomination from the Republican Party.
So why is he doing it?
I think the simple answer here is that he's trying to raise his
profile
the national and state stage to set to set the conditions to run for Senate or
governor or maybe actually run for president later. Some have suggested
that it's going to be an audition for vice president. Maybe, maybe. I don't think
that this is just the mayor suddenly deciding, hey I can win this. I don't
think he believes that. I think this is a very calculated move to raise his
profile, to put him in a position to win in other places later. Now what does it
mean? Because just because he's unlikely to win doesn't mean that this is a
a completely irrelevant endeavor. It's Miami, Florida. He's pretty popular in
Miami. He's a mayor that is pretty popular there. There is another candidate
seeking the nomination from Florida, the governor. The governor needs, needs the
votes in Miami. This move by the mayor may really hurt DeSantis. It may create
a situation during the primary where people who would have voted for De
Santos in an area he actually has a chance of winning in while they vote for
somebody else and it splits the vote and assuming President Trump, former
President Trump is still in the running, it may give the state to him. It's a
it's a unique development that is probably very unwelcome by a lot of
Republicans, but it will certainly serve the purpose of raising the profile of
mayors for us. Anyway, it's just a thought. Y'all have a good day.
