Behind the Trump-DeSantis influencer Twitter bloodbath

"Forget the campaign trail: the real Trump-DeSantis fight is spilling out on Twitter. Conservative influencers who support the respective campaigns are duking it out on Elon Musk’s app — and it’s getting personal."

(snip)

Then there’s radio host Clay Travis, the Outkick and the Coverage founder, who was busted attending a DeSantis donor event. Travis claimed he attends events for different candidates all the time so he can hear from them directly, that the events inform his coverage on the radio and that he is not endorsing anyone in the primary. A video later surfaced of Travis actually giving a speech to attendees at the event. Incidentally, Travis’s attendance at the event became known after Pushaw sent out a photo of the group of donors while identifying one of them as the source of a different leak. Campaign consultants tell Cockburn it’s typically a big no-no to send out photos of donors without permission.

Clay Travis? Of Travis and Sexton?

Heirs to EIB indeed.

[DallasBiff]

Dan Boingino is the true heir.

Can't stand milquetoast, Sexton and Travis.

[one guy in new jersey]

Can’t tell them apart on their radio program except when one of them intones the other’s name.

[Reno89519]

Don’t known any of them. Haven’t listened to any post-Limbaugh folks just as I have not listened to any post-Carlson folks.

[JonPreston]

Can't stand milquetoast, Sexton and Travis.

If these two are selling the conservative movement, on any level, wrap it all up and go home.

CIA plants. Swamp monsters, and nothing more. They ain't even remotely on our side.

Just say no to Conservative Inc. They are all posers.

It is certain that Rush would NEVER have supported DeSantis, except for the governorship. Not vs. Trump. Rush got over his Bush fungal infection, but never apologized for jumping on the mil-industrial needless Iraq war. In any case he would recognize real time what DeSantis and other wannabees purpose is to be “in the race”, as being to screw with trump and join what he knew to be the uniparty.

Correct, furthermore, DeSantis is just a more polished GWB trying to get MAGA Conservatives to compromise on their principles against Globalism by being putting forth a Faustian bargain of being strong on the Moral Issues.

For me, this is a "No Sale"

DeSantis's voice tone sounds exactly like the Rabbi in Seinfeld.

[Robert DeLong]

Well, you are backing a stone cold liar, just like Joe Biden:

DeSantis true record on his Covid-19 response. Not what he now claims was his response

You can also see the same video as the link at the following link @ the 22:41 mark of the video:

DeSantis/Noem

[Reno89519]

So Trump-backed Coumo over DeSantis. Just great. /s

[GulliverSwift]

Clay Travis is a RINO sports guy. His political opinions have always been trash.

He should be fired for such bias and deceit.

[Robert DeLong]

Cuomo is not running against Trump, but more importantly, he knows that Cuomo is not a threat to what Trump is trying to accomplish. You still do not understand Trump at all. Even worse, you do not understand what DeSantis' goal is. He desires to be a member in standing of the Uniparty. Thus he is doing their bidding to divide MAGA while he runs as Trump on policy in the primaries. Should he win the primary, which he won't, he will then pivot to being a moderate, because that is what his handlers want, someone they can control.

While I will thank you for your service to this nation, it will not stop me from telling you when you are wrong. You are wrong with your support for DeSantis. If you will stop your obsession with DeSantis and his well scripted record in Florida, you may begin to see the truth for yourself.

Listen DeSantis has done a good job in Florida, but running the country is far different than running a state. He is not ready for that. If he keeps aligning himself with characters who support the Deep State, he will never win the presidency. At least not without wholesale cheating by the Uniparty who currently controls, for the most part, who gets elected at the national.

[Reno89519]

So, supporting Cuomo over DeSantis is to trash DeSantis, not to believe our lying eyes that Trump has claimed Cuomo was better?! Sure.

[Robert DeLong]

Now you know I didn't say that. I explained why he said what he said. I also do not believe you have a comprehension issue either.

Trump didn't need to do for this nation what he tried to do for her. Was he naive about what it actually took to be president, of course he was.

By all means support DeSantis, your regret will be triple of that you know have for Trump. Guaranteed.

One thing I can say is that you are now an ingrate. That is on you.

[Chgogal]

Were you in Florida 2029-2022? I was and DeSantis did a great job.

[Robert DeLong]

I didn't say he didn't, in fact ,I said he did a well scripted job. I said he is a stone cold liar with the narrative he is peddling now with regards to his Covid-19 response:

DeSantis/Noem

It is what it is.
