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

Posted on 05/13/2023 9:03:06 AM PDT by proust

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.

Thank you for responding.

Agreed the case is bogus. Disagree that is what because of Trump’s big mouth. The case happened because of the hatred for Trump.

The real question is: do they (deep state, media, dems, rinos, big corp, woke countries, etc) hate Trump because of his ‘big mouth’? I would argue, no. And it is because they hate him so much that these things happen.

In my book, they hate him for all the right reasons - he is a threat to them. More importantly, he energizes the base. All of our enemies prefer sheep.

And it would be difficult to get his point across without sounding like an angry old fool?

The chances of him dropping dead in a second term is about 40%.

He better be very careful picking a VP.

Or better yet, retire and go away with Biden.

Well, DeSantis’ “personality” was good enough to give him a 20-point landslide victory in 2022. I voted for Trump twice, but his attacks on DeSantis are a huge turn-off.

Oh for heaven's sake, get some new material 😂

DeSantis ran unopposed in 2022. Ron should have won by 40 points. And BTW, DeWine in Ohio, who had competition, won reelection by 23 points.

"Slinging mud" at little Ron? You mean like pointing out Ron's Congressional voting record (which he left out of his book) on Social Security and Medicare? His lying to the President's face about his presidential aspirations in 2024?

How about reminding people that Ron is lying about his response to Covid --- that he did shut down the state, including schools, followed every Fauci guideline for reopening, wearing masks, social distancing, testing, vaccines --- long after Trump was out of office. Is this "mudslinging"?

Or, my personal favorite ---- publicly thanking Fauci for supporting his decision to mandate a two week quarantine for visitors from states with high infection rates. Is this unfair, too?

There's lots more, but hopefully you get the drift. Keep it up and you're going to convince people that little Ron is too delicate for the job.

Ignore the desantis supporters, many of whom I think are just rebranded neverTrumpers.

They say Trump should be polite and not attack desantis, all the while the desantis supporters attack Trump and his supporters here.

They say Trump lost elections because he's not popular and people don't like the way he behaves or (or prior mean tweets), completely ignoring the election fraud that occured, in many cases, with the assistance of GOPe.

They say desantis is more conservative, yet, how can you tell if this isn't an act or not, because he could be acting conservative, just like he acts like he's not running for president.

And now, the desantis supporters are pushing Trump is broken sexual preditor, because of a trumped up charge by leftist justice system, yet ignories how the judge prohibited evidence that could have cleared him.

Trump has survived multiple impeachments, trials, and attacks, and except for this false sexual assault case, shown he's what he says he is.

Yet, the desantis supporters still push desantis, someone who deliberately lies, plays games with people, and endorsed and supported by swampy rinos and funded by big money hedgefunds is?

And as far as the nevertrump/desantis supporters saying "I voted for Trump x, y, z times....", give it up. That phrase was run into the ground by all the then nevertrumpers, gaslighting people into thinking Trump's supporters were giving up on him. When I see that, it's a signal someone actually a nevertrumper and is trying to spin optics to fool people

Trump isn’t good at it. He is a one trick pony when it comes to trash talk.

Trump does get massive turnout
So much so that they had to cheat, ban rallies and change laws. He’ll do that again but this time he needs to have banked votes prior to election day...probably 50 or 60m pre election day votes.

If you don’t want Trump to play to his bade then drop out of the primary and he’ll focus ALL his attention on crooked Joe Biden

Why would Trump be praising his competitor. If his goal is to have Trumps praise he could drop out, not run, support then guy who went all in for him and I’m sure Trump would be praising him to the hilltop. Instead he’s working with Paul Ryan to take down Trump. He deserves everything he’s getting from Trump And Much more!

Trump doesn’t get pushed around. This is his call. That’s why people love him, he’s not a phony.

Yea, people don’t care if she won’t vote for Trump. She can explain to the next rape victim in the neighborhood why she took her stand.

And how many times has DeSantis gone after Trump? Unless you consider ignoring Trump’s inane bluster going after Trump it’s pretty much a one way street where Trump does all the going.

Thank you for mentioning the rich kid angle. As an electrician I have met many ultra rich people and the vast majority of them saw me as a servant. I am not their servant. Don jr told me to not boycott bud light. The arrogance is astounding.

Trump is determined to destroy the Republican Party, and may succeed.

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

Wrong again. This happens to the famous, the wealthy and very pubic figures all the time. People take advantage for various reasons. And then ya get someone who's all of the above, plus a huge political target, this is to be expected.

Tiny example. I watched a well known celebrity at a public sports event, where his kid through a nerf football and accidently hit this lady in the head. She immediately recognized this person and feigned injury, demanding his contact information etc...
