Team DeSantis Announces Support for Political Prosecutions by FBI-DOJ, Lawfare Against Trump, Jailing Innocent Trump Supporters for 2 Years without a Trial

CNN and the fake news legacy media were not the only losers last night.

President Trump agreed to appear at a CNN town hall in New Hampshire on Wednesday night that turned into a lopsided debate win over CNN host Kaitlan Collins.

Trump gave Kaitlan a thorough thrashing.

But CNN was not the only loser last night.

The DeSantis team posted comments following the debate where they revealed their support for the Democrats and administrative state.

The DeSantis team came out in support of” ** politically motivated prosecutions ** FBI-DOJ interference in elections ** lawfare by the FBI, DOJ, CIA, and deep state against undesirable political opponents ** Blaming Trump for the fedsurrection ** Support for E. Jean Carroll the crazy cat lady who lied about being raped by President Trump ** support for stuffing drop boxes, late night ballot drops on election night, locking doors on voter counting rooms, supplying unlimited boxes of ballots until Democrats pull ahead, mail-in voting and Zuckerbucks in elections

Here is the DeSantis team’s response to the Trump town hall/CNN debate last night

If they are bankrolling the candidate and are their surrogates, then, yea, they are responsible and so is RDS. Any candidate who has a PAC speaking for them and they make statements that are not approved by the candidate should be immediately fired and disbanded. Let’s see if RDS does that in this case.

Okay, then just show where RDS has declared that this PAC is one of his surrogates.

“Any candidate who has a PAC speaking for them and they make statements that are not approved by the candidate should be immediately fired and disbanded. Let’s see if RDS does that in this case.”

You do realize that it would be a huge violation of federal campaign finance laws for DeSantis to exercise operational control of a PAC like that, right?

They certainly look like a team for DeSantis..

We’ll see if any official statements come out or if the DeSantis team will just let this sort of speak for them, rightly or wrongly.

Suicide indeed. If Ron is going to run he needs to distance himself from whomever wrote this and fire them immediately. This can’t be Ron as its just too stupid...I suspect it’s the Lincoln project by a different name.

I have a feeling many of those so-called DeSantis supporters were Dems stirring the pot.

It’s possible they are. Nevertheless though, it’s all RINO’s involved. DeSantis meds to put out a statement disavowing the PAC tweet for damage control.

Assuming that this is true, the DeSantis “supporters” couldn’t do a better job of sabotaging the DeSantis campaign.

Since desantis has been lying about his intent to run for president...

What makes anyone think he wouldn't lie about his associations with a pac or the people running it, supporting him?

Ok, sure, so then anyone who says anything and also supports a candidate can be declared a “surrogate” for a candidate and we can condemn the candidate for what the candidate didn’t actually say.

Except... that’s exactly what the media does to Trump. Remember how many times they demanded that he renounce all his supporters over QAnon, or any other crazy thing that they might also have talked about? You just want to pull the same sleazy tactic.

DeSantis should be asked to clarify on the record where he stands on the tweet. I can see where that tweet by his PAC could be misconstrued, if that is not what was meant.

The okie dokey tone on lack of due process and the casual dismissal of the 2020 shenanigans is disconcerting.

Now you are trying to put words in my mouth.

I'll simplify it.

The question was, since desantis has been lying about his intent to run for president.

What makes anyone think he wouldn't lie about other things?

I have a feeling Ronny supporters don’t fact-check for themselves because they are afraid of what they will find.

It would take 2 minutes tops to find out yes, he said J6rs deserve prison. That has always been is position.

It’s a silly hypothetical. What’s there to accuse him of lying about?

Nobody has presented any statement at all from DeSantis about this PAC. Go out and find one and show it to me, and then I’ll decide whether I think he’s lying or not.

So you won't admit desantis has been lying about his intent to run for president.....

And, you want to cover for his character of being deceitful.

Well, back when he was running for re-election...

“You’re running for governor,” Crist said, looking at DeSantis as the governor looked forward. “Why don’t you look in the eyes of the people of the state of Florida and say to them if you’re re-elected, you will serve a full four-year term as governor. Yes or no?”

DeSantis said nothing as four seconds ticked by and the debate hall started to fall quiet.
“Yes or no, Ron?” Crist asked again.

“Well, listen,” he said, “I know that Charlie’s interested in talking about 2024 and Joe Biden, but I just want to make things very, very clear. The only worn-out old donkey I’m looking to put out to pasture is Charlie Crist.”

Crist to DeSantis: Will you run for president? Florida governor refuses to say in caustic debate
