In case some of you don't understand the reference...

 
True story: my grandfather used to bred top blood line pointers. On one quail hunt he took one of the young pups he was training with us. The dog was doing a good job for awhile and followed the other adult dog as they tracked the birds. As we topped a hill we saw both dogs pointing. As we approached the young pup broke position and flushed the birds before we were ready to take our shot. Next thing we heard was a shot and then saw the pup fall over. My grandfather acted as if nothing had happened and just said he wasn’t feeding a dog that flushed birds. My brother and I were both speechless, we were probably 10 and 12 at the time. Years later we asked him about it, he explained he was raising champions, not yard dogs. That his clients wouldn’t purchase a dog that flushed birds. Sucked to be that dog on that day.

In 1978, a friend of mine, Bob, paid $400 for a female German shorthair pup, which is just over $1900 today. I had an Irish Setter, and another friend, Jim, had a Golden Retriever. The three of us went pheasant hunting. Jim's dog pointed, and then Jim gave the command to flush. When Jim shot the bird, Bob's dog hauled butt out of there. Bob tried to take the dog back, but the breeder wouldn't take it. When Bob was buying the dog, the breeder told him the dog would hunt. He was stuck with the dog.

The story gets worse. Bob brought the dog with him the next time we went hunting. He had a coil of rope - 50' of it. He tied one end around his waist and the other end to the dog's collar. He was bound and determined to change the dog from being gun-shy. The dog hauled butt at the first gunshot. The dog pulled Bob to the ground, which caused us to laugh. That's when Bob realized that the dog wouldn't hunt. That did something to the dog mentally. They woke up in the morning to find the dog had chewed the stuffing out of the sofa and chair. His wife told him to get rid of the dog. He ended up having to give it away. The only thing that dog flushed was Bob's money down the drain.
 
DeSantis for VP, maybe....highly unlikely though.

An article I read implied that this meeting was initiated by the DeSantis camp.

What that means, I have no idea.
 

Trump says he and DeSantis 'had a great meeting' in Florida
