While DeSantis has not formally announced a 2024 presidential campaign, he is currently the only potential contender who has numbers even somewhat close to Trump.
There has been speculation, including from the New York Times, that Trump might switch his nickname for the governor from “Ron DeSanctimonious” to “Meatball Ron,” but Trump said that just isn’t true.
“I will never call Ron DeSanctimonious ‘Meatball’ Ron, as the Fake News is insisting I will,” Trump wrote in the post. “Even though FoxNews killing lightweight Paul Ryan is revered by him, Low Energy Jeb Bush is his hero and always at his side, his beaches and State were closed for long periods of time, his testing, testing, testing for the China Virus didn’t work out too well, and his loyalty skills are really weak, it would be totally inappropriate to use the word ‘meatball’ as a moniker for Ron!”
In another post, Trump said that it is obvious that DeSantis will try to challenge him in the Republican primary.
“All of the Fake News is reporting that I spend large amounts of my time coming up with a good ‘nickname’ for Ron DeSanctimonious, who is obviously going to give the presidential ‘thing’ a shot,” Trump wrote.
Trump also pointed to the fact that he dominating the polls when it comes to hypothetical primary matchups.

If Obama, Biden, and Soros also want to support DeSantis it’s OK with me. I support DeSantis because of his consistently conservative actions and his superbly assertive actions as Governor. I’m really interested to see what his grand jury investigation of Pfizer and Moderna turns up.
And Ron DeSantis isn’t the man who mistakenly appointed Chris Wray and Bob Barr to key jobs.
Donald Trump might want to study the life of Professor Isaac Barrow, and decide to step aside for an even better man. Then he would be a hero for eternity.
Is that kinda wishy-washy? Well, yes.
It is much better to tackle it straight on.
Now that may not be your style but it is Trump’s and let Trump be trump.
Like his man Fauci?
Or Don's Pfizer donors?
If Trump had been half as tough on his own awful underlings as he is on his better Republican rivals, then he would have no rivals.
Weakest R president in my lifetime.
That image is perfect. 😂
Everybody loves meatballs.
Amen!
Weakest R president in my lifetime.
Desantis cannot ‘legally’ run for the office of president as a sitting governor ... Disney is going to bird dog him out of office.
It's The NY Times that used the unnamed source. Why sugar coat that? Point it out let let them explain.
Say, Furry. Isn't one your cats named Meatball?
this is all narrative to keep RD from polling well into primaries. They both know the game afoot.
The leftist lying media narrative to push RD to the front is the decades old divide and concur. Don’t fall for it.
Don’t get sucked into the narrative like so many weak freepers have done.
Trump got to run against RINO lightweights the last primary.
Not the case if DeSantis runs. Acting like a child worked the first time, but Trump is a one trick pony.
I love Trump for what he did while President, but his campaigned sucked. A shallow INSULT COMIC DOG routine.
If he would have talked abut his achievements as President, his tax cuts etc. He couold have won.
The lying media and RGA (NEOCONS!) are pushing RD to run for POTUS, though he hasn’t announced and probably won’t.
DemocRATs always try to divide the conservative vote and that is what this is.
Build up RD as glorious
Later, the liars will destroy him.
An old playbook.
Divide
Conquer
Wake up freepers
It’s a predictive programming propaganda narrative.
Stay away!
I would like to do that. But the jackass-in-chief continually distracts me with his selfish and self-destructive garbage.
Most of what Trump got done is already undone. Because executive orders are not a path toward long-term change.
The greatest thing Trump did for the party is show that being tough against the enemy can work. But he only did it internationally.
Domestically, he folded like a cheap suit when we needed him most.
And now, unfortunately, he is ruining the memory of his achievements by demonstrating how ugly it is to be petty.
Stop. Seek help.
Our blue gov is the only real problem in otherwise bright red WI.
Trump got him elected.
