LET'S TALK ABOUT DESANTIS STATEMENT THAT BIDEN WON THE ELECTION:
THE PREMISE:
DeSantis set the premise by saying this:
"Whoever puts their hand on the Bible on Jan. 20 every four years is the winner," DeSantis told NBC News correspondent Dasha Burns.
So, in essence DeSantis is saying that according to our form of government, whoever is certified by Congress as the winner and takes the oath of office is the winner. This is simply a matter of fact. Biden was certified and took the oath, Biden was the winner.
DESANTIS BLAMES TRUMP:
However, DeSantis then went on to say this was a flawed election and that much of the blame lay at Trump's feet for passing the CARES Act, putting Fauci in charge and flooding the nation with mail-in ballots.
Still, DeSantis made sure to point out in Sunday's interview that he saw a number of problems with the 2020 election, including Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s grants for election administration, the widespread availability of mail-in ballots, state laws that allow third parties to collect and return voters' ballots, and how social media outlets de-emphasized a story about the laptop of President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden.
"I think what people in the media and elsewhere, they want to act like somehow this was just like the perfect election. ... I don’t think it was a good-run election," DeSantis said. "But I also think Republicans didn’t fight back. You’ve got to fight back when that is happening."
"But here’s the issue that I think is important for Republican voters to think about: Why did we have all those mail votes? Because of Trump turned the government over to Fauci," DeSantis said, referring to Dr. Anthony Fauci, a leader of the White House Coronavirus Task Force. "They embraced lockdowns. They did the CARES Act, which funded mail-in ballots across the country."
CONCLUSION:
At no time did DeSantis say Trump was NOT cheated or that this was a perfect election. He put the blame for the imperfect election at Trump's feet.
DeSantis is a dullard. He knows exactly what he said and how it would be taken.
No amount of pity is gonna help this guy connect.
DeSantis blames Trump for an corrupt election? That’s a difference without substance IMHO.
Please let us know when you’re done playing stupid, Ron.
Blame Trump for 3 AM vote dumps and burst pipes..
Boy, the Swampy R team wants to lose MAGA voters
Trump is going to "Ted Cruz" DeSantis. This is part of that strategy, and so far, it's working.
A dullard that wins 60 percent of the votes cast and out polls everyone not named Trump in the primary.
And you bring on Bill Mitchell to prove your case? Mitchell is a CONservative grifter, someone who made app $200,000k off the "Trump Operation" before latching on to the DeSantis Operation, a sole subsidiary of the GOPe. Good luck trying to push the Meatball up this primary hill. He's a loser and his poll #s prove it.
“Grifter”? Nobnody is paying him.
What did he say that was wrong?
“A dullard that wins 60 percent of the votes cast and out polls everyone not named Trump in the primary.”
The Deep State is throwing everything they have to get DeSantis as our nominee. That will always be worth a few points.
Trump signed the CARES Act and turned the country over to Fuaci. He and his campaign did nothing to stop the ballot harvesting, dropboxes, and other abuses.
What could Trump have realistically done, when elections are run by state and local officials, and not run by the federal government?
He just deleted more than 9500 Tweets from when he was was a Trumper. This in anticipation to a coming debate with Laura Loomer on the 18th. Take Bill Barr and add in Mike Pence and you get the bottom dweller, Bill Mitchell. Maybe you have a soft spot in your heart for RATS, but normal ppl can see through him.
How about that he was running for President?
Trump provided the means for the Dems to cheat on a massive scale.
“...the blame lay at Trump’s feet for passing the CARES Act, putting Fauci in charge and flooding the nation with mail-in ballots.”
I did not know that Trump flooded the nation with mail-in ballots. I thought the democrats did it.
Fauci was not put in charge. Pence was.
Meatball took $4.1 billion in CARES money for Florida
I why didn’t state clearly that Trump was cheated?
Karl Rove told his hand puppet Ron to say that.
As usual, he complied.
