Top DeSantis Influencer EJECTED From GOP Debate After Harassing Kari Lake
The Last Refuge ^ | WILLIAM UPTON

Posted on 09/28/2023 2:43:33 PM PDT by SoConPubbie

Florida blogger and Ron DeSantis campaign influencer Chris Nelson was ejected from the Republican primary debate in Simi Valley, California after harassing Kari Lake and other debate guests. In the hours prior to the event, Nelson posted a series of videos to X (formerly Twitter) that show him shouting at Lake and others. In one video, he can be heard ranting about former President Donald Trump – suggesting his supporters intend to make him ‘Emperor of the United States.’

Nelson has become a fairly regular figure among the DeSantis campaign’s online trolls, routinely attacking Trump supporters. Sources close to Nelson have told The National Pulse he receives his marching orders to behave in such a manner directly from Christina Pushaw, DeSantis’s “Rapid Response Director” who is also a registered foreign agent and amnesty advocate.

Nelson was a key figure in an online mob of pro-DeSantis accounts that celebrated the indictment of former President Donald Trump – other pro-DeSantis accounts even insinuated that Trump supporters would be joining him in prison. The same troll army recently attempted to weaponize Hurricane Idalia, falsely claiming President Donald Trump instructed his supporters — including a new mother in Congress — to not appear with the Florida Governor or promote the state’s response to the storm.

🚨Just got kicked out of the GOP debate for calling out Kari Lake 😬 https://t.co/iexsQlsHEf

In 2017, Nelson’s ex-wife filed a restraining order against Nelson, whom she then accused of domestic battery. It appears Nelson has been legally barred from owning a firearm under the Baker Act due to drug and alcohol abuse, as well as mental health issues.

I wonder what Chris Nelson's Freeper Handle is?

I know I have seen the exact same behavior / comments concerning both Kari Lake and President Trump here on FreeRepublic by DeSanctimonious Online Influencers posing as Freepers!

dear demented “Florida Man”,

President Trump promised, publishing his promises in PDF format, AND, delivered on every one of them.

That is why I support him.

There is nothing in the article connecting him to DeSantis at all, let alone him being a "Top" DeSantis operative.

So just more fake nonsense from "The Last Refuge." Some online troll elevated to create a fake story and divide conservatives in general and spread lies about DeSantis in particular. Unfortunately typical of the nonsense you like to spam the forum with.

These establishment/Uniparty/globalist shills are just detached from reality…

These “debates” just reinforce to everyone watching why Trump will and should be the nominee… the whole lot of them are just clowns…

I originally had hopes of DeSantis as the Trump-without-the-bad -stuff candidate. Boy am I ever over that. Not ready for prime time Ron.

It’s laughable to hear video clips from last night’s debate. It appeared to be from an SNL skit.

Mocking Trump for being absent from a three ring circus.

Truth is, every one of these clowns would be begging DJT for his endorsement were he not running.

I am over it as well - this DeSantis is not the DeSantis who has been governor of Florida.

Nonetheless, this article has nothing to do with DeSantis - and your comment shows the power of fake news headlines.

You should probably get a TWEETER account and jump into the high flying world of social media. You’ll probably learn a lot.

Supporters like this are the reason DeSantis is sinking

He obviously has multiple handles and is also a Zeeper.

This goes to show just how bright Meatball is. I do not see how angering Trump supporters aids in getting votes. Yes, there’s little difference between a Lake supporter and a Trump supporter. They are simply Trump supporters that live in AZ.

About a week ago I noted that some of Donald Trumps detractors were giddy over Trumps indictments hoping that if he is taken down it would assist ratings for his opponents. I was basically called a liar.

Well, there’s one key example.

I agree, but neither do I see how angering other GOP candidates’ supporters aids in getting votes.

Only Trump and his supporters are allowed to harass his political opponents.
