I think I'm registered Libertarian, so I don't think I can vote in the Rep primary. They don't have anyone that I would absolutely support economically, both Trump and DeSantis have a protectionist streak which I don't support too a degree (there's valid arguments about Communist market manipulation making protectionism necessary, but both want more than that). Honestly, Trump's "freedom cities" schpeel actually sounds like he's taking a page from Thatcher to create Free Economic Zones. I don't agree with that (because you don't make specific places de-regulated, you do it everywhere so you don't parasitize the economy to them). But, making such a place would depopulate democratic cities and not make everything a pure rural/urban divide. I think Trump's economic policies make more sense, and he's likely to hit the government pretty hard, which should help alleviate the burden.
But, as I've said before, my vote would actually be for Larry Elder. He'd seriously do some damage.
Who are you going for in the primary? Especially from an economic standpoint

Yea I’m hoping Elder can gain some momentum
Like I said, if BLM starts rioting, I want him on that debate stage no matter what.
