Trump bashes DeSantis, claims he needs a ‘personality transplant’
The Hill ^ | 05/12/23 | Caroline Vakil

Former President Trump bashed Gov. Ron DeSantis in a new ad Friday, claiming the Florida Republican needs a “personality transplant.”

“The problem with Rondesanctimonious is that he needs a personality transplant, and those are not yet available. Almost all congressmen and women that served with him and knew him well supported me, some of them surprisingly so because of their relationship with Ron,” he said in the 40-second ad, using his preferred nickname for DeSantis.

Nice take. Kudos for your insightful response.

Trump wants to be president again because he knows where the bodies are buried, and because he loves his country. Few democrats can say that part out loud and mean it.

Sounds pretty petty to me

Got it. The GOPe attacking MAGA and DeSantis endorsing it, is fine.

Orange man then responding is "petty".

That’s because leftist have zero sense of humor. They’re so stupid they think he’s a big ego narcissus. They have no clue what stage schtick is. Ya think he’s serious when he talks about his beautiful hair?

Normal people get the humor. Leftist don’t get it.

‘ DeSantis is twice the better candidate that Cruz was’

————————————

Cruz would have lost because of personality and a being strict conservative (in reality, he is not, but that’s another subject).

Wake up folks…..DeSantis will not win the general for these reasons:

Passed 6 week abortion
Went authoritarian on censorship, Disney, gay laws, book banning, etc.
Lack of personality, not likable

Whether you think the above is true or not, doesn’t matter - the dems and media will frame it as such. The independents and moderates will not like the above.

Like it or not, most support 1st term abortion. Had he settled for 15 weeks like most red states, he could have sold that to the public. Every conservative legislation he passed will be sold as ‘authoritarian’.

As for the insults, those that dislike that will never like Trump and some will hold their nose and vote for him. It is a weakness on his part but many, including me, focus on the bigger picture. Trump is a proven diplomat and his flawed personality managed to put America back in the lead worldwide. He also forced other countries to do right by us. I’ll take that any day of the week and ignore his ‘petty insults’ of a man I will never vote for, DeSantis the opportunist. I would vote for Byron Donalds though.

‘Who just lost a lawsuit because of his personality?’
Sexual predator Donald.
I will never vote for him again.

If you need to be energized after being robbed in 2020, you aren’t MAGA..

And that’s okay.
Bush,Dole,Bush,McCain,Romney has a wing in the R party to try to win back the Swamp pick..

They’re happy Trump is out of the White House.
Not so happy he’s running again, though.

They aren’t energized with Trump.
They prefer another choice of R to con the public into their R vs D con..

Your mileage is closer to theirs, so you have company..

So, we should only elect showman and people with bubbly personalities? What is wrong with a serious, hard worker or someone who is very matter of fact and logical?

I will paraphrase Ben Shapiro and believe he is correct.

The best way to defeat senile fool Biden is to look at what a senile fool Biden is.

People won’t do that if they are focusing on Trump. They will do that if a lesser known conservative is running like Desantis. I will vote for Trump…3rd time and will likely see him defeated by senile fool Biden for the 2nd time as the Dems and sheeple moderates hate Trump.

But oh yeah I forget , Desantis is a deep, deep, secret deep stater. He is also married to George Soros. Everything he is doing like fighting the LGTBQ crowd at Disney, supporting immigration control has all been a deep, deep state secret devotion to fool us all.
😂

I am also a Trump supporter who voted for him twice. Neither you nor I understand this because we’re not only-Trumpers. I don’t believe that any criticism of Trump is unacceptable and unwarranted.I don’t pledge blind allegiance or trust to anyone but God.

“I hate to break it to you, but Jim and I had a nice back and forth regarding DeSantis’ true conservatism and his application of conservatism in Florida.“

———————————

Interesting…….maybe you could show me the same respect by responding to me. You blamed Trump for losing the Jean Carroll case in an earlier post. I responded asking ‘Does that logic also apply to Russiagate, spying and lawfare?”……….crickets.

It’s fine to have an opinion. It’s juvenile to ignore legitimate questions about your opinion. This is typical of DeSantis supporters here. When faced with a legitimate response…….crickets.

Why does that happen? Yet, they (and you) don’t hesitate to respond to barking. Very reminiscent of libtard conversations…..I expect more from this forum and rarely get it.

Look, I agree that case is bogus and fabricated. In no way do I believe the woman and have no respect for the prosecutor.

But you must admit, the case was based on Trump's big mouth.
