EXCLUSIVE: Fox News has learned that more than 100 former Trump administration officials have formed a growing coalition backing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to be the Republican Party's 2024 presidential nominee.

According to multiple sources within the group, officially known as "The Eight-Year Alliance," DeSantis is "a proven winner," a contender with a depth of policy proven by what he's accomplished at the state level, and a leader who "does what he says."

What’s is not to like? Ford Mustang.

BDoes it have large windows and a big cup holder? That’s the criteria for the cars that I drive.

“Gaetz, MTG, Boebert, et al., need to get on the stick and remind him.”

Agreed. Wonder why that isn’t happening. It’s starting to feel like we’re being lied to and ‘led on’ by pretty everyone at this point.

Yep. KMc also is getting squishy on the debt ceiling “negotiations”, I think. Did I hear correctly that he’s backed off on the 40-hour work requirement for the slackers living off our taxes? Maybe down to 20 hours?

Maybe I’m crazy, but I object to supporting the slackers and the illegals.

Especially when US vets are still being treated like 2nd class citizens (or worse) while illegals are given priority status. It’s backasswards, like it always is when Democrats are in charge of running and ruining America.

Nice sidestep……..it’s apparent that debate is not your strong suit.

But, for fun I will entertain your ‘sidestep assessment’ - “Trump trusting 100 low level staff”

Who hires the thousands of low level staff? Answer: Not the president
Does the president spend hours with each low level staffer? Answer: No

Does a CEO know each and every employee? Answer: No
Does a CEO hire/vet each and every employee? Answer: No
If an employee goes rogue, does the CEO know about it? Answer: No

Feel free to answer any of those easy questions. If you can’t, you have zero understanding of how government works.

As for your long list of turncoats: I’d bet money that you and millions of others also trusted them in the beginning. And we were in the middle of a war, one doesn’t clear the field knowing that the replacements (if any exist) will be worse.

Pence helped Trump get elected by attracting hard core conservatives (seems ironic now, doesn’t it). Voters didn’t think Trump was conservative enough but liked Pence.

Sessions helped Trump get elected by being one of the few DC insiders that openly supported Trump. Turned out that he was owned as well.

Barr was one of a very few willing to force Mueller to stop the nonsense of dragging out the investigation for many more years. Barr knew it was nonsense and wanted to save the DOJ/FBI. And once it ended, he summarized the long report stating ‘no collusion’. He put an end to it, not for Trump but for the agencies.

Giuliani? Are you delusional? He made election integrity a national issue. He swayed many to look closer at their election processes and informed voters. He also brought us the Hunter laptop.

I’m seeing a pattern with you: any misstep wipes out all good deeds. Based on your rules of judgement, no one is worthy, including you.

“He (Trump) should have came to a deal with DeSantis so DeSantis would have been his VP”

No. DeSantis should have gone all out in support for Trump from the Day Trump declared he is running for 2024 Prez race.

Thank Trump for helping him get elected Gov of FL then wait for Trump to pick him for VP

That would have prepared him for 8 yrs as Prez after Trump finishes his next term.

Big mistake by DeS.

You’re so wrong.

After another 4 yrs of Trump, the USA will be back on track and the dems will be licking their wounds
Many high level dems will be jailed and a few will commit hairy Kerry. And it won’t be ketchup you see on their hands!

DeSantis can win in 28 if he wakes up and gets behind Trump NOW! I doubt his ego will let him.

DeSantis can’t beat Joe in 24, Trump can.

If we all do our part.
