Trump escalates attacks on DeSantis with social media re-tweets posted by Democrats

You can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Donald Trump is starting his third run for president much as he did during the first run. He appears to be trashing any candidate that he sees as a potential threat to his nomination. Trump is the only Republican candidate who has announced his candidacy so far. Nikki Haley is expected to do so next week. In the meantime, Trump is focused on Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who hasn’t even said if he’ll run in the 2024 GOP presidential primary or not.

Right now, DeSantis is busy being governor. He was re-elected last November. That victory was one for the books. When DeSantis was asked about Trump’s criticism of the governor’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic last month, he pointed to the victory.

I would love to see Trump back in the White House but I wish he would stop vendetta or whatever he has with DeSantis. Biden and the Democratic Party are the problem, not the governor of Florida.

As President Trump had access to a lot of information. He also gained a lot of contacts. And he has a lot of money. He knows more than we know about DeSantis.

Maybe so. But he should be focusing on his campaign and making the case why he should be President again. Go after Biden.

If DeSantis is rotten it's good to get it out now. We already know the Biden is rotten.

Agreed...DJT should be concentrating on his vision for us post 2024. He should be skewering FJB at every opportunity.
He should be denouncing the fascist dumblecrat party.

What he should not do is heckle fellow Republicans in what he thinks are pre-emptive attacks...people he MAY need in 2024.

There’s some serious concern whether DeSantis is a pedo “ groomer”.

Then we’ll find out later. All this is doing is providing fodder for the MSM.

This is why he won’t be the nominee. Turning off just the folks who like DeSantis will keep him from the top of the ticket.

If there was anything there, Charlie Crist would be governor of Florida right now. You’re being ridiculous.

I doubt it. Trump was not in control of the administration. Don’t smear DeSantis by innuendo

Who knows what he found out after 2018?

How many times are you all gonna post the same story? What’s the matter, not getting enough traction from the first 3 or 4 times?

There were tons of people that liked Ted Cruz. There were tons of people that liked Rubio. Trump's approach showed what they were.
