Desantis addresses potential 2024 presidential run: ‘You either gotta put up or shut up'
faux news ^ | May 5, 2023 | Paul Steinhauser

Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida say he'll decide "relatively soon" whether he will launch a 2024 GOP presidential campaign.

DeSantis, who won an overwhelming 19-point gubernatorial re-election victory last autumn, said at a news conference on Friday marking the end of Florida's legislative session that "I felt very confident going into November ’22 we were gonna do very well, but you really had to put up or shut up on that."

Wishy washy desantis, still can't stop playing games and jerking people around.

But, declaring he's running for president will confirm that he never intended to be governor for another 4 years, and that he is just another political animal, looking for the next position, without caring for the people that supported and vote for him....

The sooner he declares, though, the sooner he ends his future political career.

People have been saying for months he is going to announce in May after the Florida legislative sessions ends, it's not even a secret, yet people are still like "hurr durr when's he going to announce, why is he taking so long?!"

If Trump had done this in 2016 he’d have been a complete joke.

Discouraging to see these vitriolic comments regarding a solid conservative governor who one day will likely be president of the US. Yet the butt-hurt Trump sycophants say “How dare DeSantis challenge Trump”! They just don’t get it that Trump will just lose yet again in November 2024.

Really? Because Trump didn’t announce until June 2015. That’s later than May last I checked.

Why did Trump stall so long to announce his 2016 GOP primary candidacy?

What desantis' actions have shown is that he is deliberately being deceitful to people about hiding his actual intentions to run for president.

Because of this, how will you ever know if desantis is being deceitful and lying about other things, or not?

Besides, who likes to be jerked around by people, other than you, since you are defending him?

Who likes losing as much as you? Because when Trump’s the nominee in 2024 he’s just going to lose and you’re going to cry about voter fraud again. It’s boring.

“a solid conservative governor who one day will likely be president of the US”

Who would not be but for 45, and millions of MAGA’s flocking to FL to escape the Blue Wastelands.

The Ronettes & Never Trumpers won’t quit. If Meatball continues with this Fan Dance, he will absolutely never recover. We’ll need him 2028. Maybe by then he will learn to avoid the BushBabies, like the rest of MAGA America is trying to do

It’s MAGA now, not “Solid Conservative”. What’s that like Yeb! and the the other Bushies “Compassionate Conservatism”?

If YOU don’t vote for our PDJT The GOAT, you are part of the problem.

Are we being manipulated by the Never Trumpers? https://twitter.com/TrumpWarRoom/status/1640000173446250496

https://yournews.com/2023/03/27/2542935/analyst-says-the-bushes-are-running-desantis-presidential-campaign/

I don’t know the answer to this. I do suspect that Fox is pushing DeSantis awfully hard, just as they did the Bushes. I will be doing research looking for a connection now based on the prism of a Bush/Cheney coalition behind the campaign. I feel this nagging suspicion that the DS is trying to push us, as always, in the direction they want to go, so we have to vet ALL candidates with that prism.
