Another Huge Miss: Ron DeSantis’ Silence on Latest DOJ Special Counsel of President Trump Speaks Volumes

The Gateway Pundit ^ | November 19 , 2022 | Joe Hoft

[Macho MAGA Man]

Yesterday, the corrupt Biden Department of Justice announced the creation of another Special Counsel to attack and harass President Trump.

The lack of a response from Florida governor Ron DeSantis speaks volumes.

Ron DeSantis is doing an amazing job in Florida. His policies and statements have been very good. But his silence on the issues that matter to the Trump base speaks volumes.

DeSantis also remained silent on the raid of president Trump’s home at Mar-a-Lago.

DeSantis will be lucky to still be in politics after we get through with him.

He goes up against Trump we will smoke his a$$. He'll quit politics to spend more time with his family. LOL

[G Larry]

Yes! The best Ron can do is focus on the job he has and avoid getting pressured into a peeing contest or offering an opinion that would be criticized, no matter the perspective.

[thegagline]

Not DeSantis’ monkey, not his circus.

[metmom]

Too many people are too busy judging others on what they think the others “should have done” in response to a situation, without knowing squat about what is going on behind the scenes.

Far too many armchair quarterbacks.

DeSantis is no fool and does not need to get sucked into a tit for tat discussion involving Trump.

Maybe, just maybe he’s really being the adult in the room and watching this all play out before getting involved and later ending up looking like a idiot, for which he would also get castigated.

[central_va]

He’s a phony. I can tell. He has all the wrong friends.

[Cincinnatus.45-70]

What are all the other “GOP leaders” saying?

Good, bad, or indifferent, how many others have taken a position? He’s a state governor and he’s not yet a presidential candidate regardless of what the media is trying to force. There is nothing he can do about it except run off at the mouth.

We all know that the McConnell-Cheney swamp weasels are in favor of prosecution and maybe even requested it. At least he is not taking that side.

There is simply no way his speaking out would change anything. This is a police state terror op. They might get worse in the face of opposition (as in, let us show the dirty peasants there is nothing they can do), but they won’t change for the better.

I might like to see him come out in opposition, but at this point, what would it accomplish.

[central_va]

DeSanctus is astro turf MAGA.

[mass55th]

"Is this a good move by DeSantis?"

Is he keeping silent because he knows the DOJ/FBI, media, Democrats, and his own party members would do the same thing to him as they have to Trump, if he decides to run for President? He came out and criticized the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, so I'm assuming he'd say something about this. I'll give him some time, and see what he does.

[metmom]

Like you would know.

Right….

[the OlLine Rebel]

So does Trump.

No one ever noticed all these years. Just watch “Apprentice”, esp. Celebrity version, and you’ll get it.

[central_va]

Wow, so since when is being a gutless craven laggard a good strategy?

[alstewartfan]

Sorry. My vote will go to the man whom I think will get the most votes, and have coattails. Right now, this looks like DeSantis.

[thegagline]

Should he be the 2024 Republican nominee for President, he would like your support.

[dragnet2]

Hard to believe no one asked Desantis his thoughts on the 1/6 event are, as it seems to be the leftish benchmark question when determining who thinks 2020 was a steal or a legitimate election.

Yet no one asked the question and not a peep from DeSantis regarding 1/6. Seems a bit odd.

[alstewartfan]

YAWN. This is ridiculous.

Which POTUS was as successful as Trump? Look at what Trump accomplished:

1. Gas price per gallon was about $2.30;
2. Inflation about 1.4%, mortgage rates were half of what they are now;
3. Unemployment was low before Covid and before Blue Governors shut everything down and we were in the midst of a V-shape recovery until January 22, 2021;
4. Tax decrease; tax laws promoted small businesses as well as large;
5. US enjoyed energy independence - No Green Agenda, no war on energy, No Paris Treaty;
6. No war in Ukraine, no threat of nuclear war, NATO paid its way;
7. China was quiet and we were winning the trade war;
8. US companies were bringing home the jobs due to well executed tax treatments;
9. Peace in the Middle East aka Abraham Accords; US Embassy moved to Jerusalem; and Iran was isolated.
10. Got three non-left “I don't know what a woman is” Supreme Court Justices on the bench allowing Roe vs Wade to be overturned.

Who the heck can accomplish the above in four years while being impeached twice and investigated by Obama's Weaponized Agencies?

[the OlLine Rebel]

Yup, those deranged into thinking Trump is perfect and never does anything wrong, definitely cannot stand the thought of anyone ever but Trump-Trump-Trump.

“Greatest president ever” as per another thread - oh my God. Some of you are really, really nuts.

[central_va]

You DeSanctus fluffers need to wipe off your faces.

[Mount Athos]

The only way the silence on this subject speaks volumes if it is the voices in your head speaking volumes

[MinorityRepublican]

DeSantis is not going to attach himself to a losing campaign. No Thanks.

DeSantis is not stupid. FReepers think he should "take one for the team". Why the he** will he do that? No reason for him.
