Florida Governor Ron DeSantis condemned the federal indictment of former President Donald Trump — and used his statement about it to campaign.
DeSantis posted a statement about the “weaponization of federal law enforcement” to his Twitter account on Thursday evening.
“The weaponization of federal law enforcement represents a mortal threat to a free society,” DeSantis began. “We have for years witnessed an uneven application of the law depending upon political affiliation.”
The tweet continued, “Why so zealous in pursuing Trump yet so passive about Hillary or Hunter?”
DeSantis then quickly switched gears to campaign for himself.
“The DeSantis administration will bring accountability to the DOJ, excise political bias and end weaponization once and for all,” the governor concluded.
The Department of Justice has indicted former President Donald Trump on seven counts related to handling classified documents, according to reports.
Trump responded to the federal charges by declaring, “I AM INNOCENT” in multiple posts on Truth Social.
This is the first time in the history of the United States that a former president has faced federal charges.

Looking forward to the Bushies and McCainacs taking back the party?

You nailed it, DesertRhino. Saint DeSantis is implying Trump is equivalent to Hillary and Hunter. A dirty trick. Does he think We the People don't notice this?!
Another thing, his phrase: "The DeSantis administration will bring accountabillllity to the DOJ,"
What? Slap them on the wrist? We need a President who will GO AFTER the Deep State and Justice Department. Someone who dares to call out the Deep State for what it is: a Soviet KGB and Gestapo at the highest levels of our United States of America!
I will never vote for DeSantis, even for dog catcher.
I thank you, Lord, that I am not like other men!
“There is no GOP without Trump”
Without Trump or BECAUSE OF Trump?
I have at least some respect for liberals. None for GOP establishment.
Does anyone honestly think that Trump would suspend his campaign for one millisecond if DeSantis were indicted like this?
OH, my, did Gov Ron step in it again? Now PP, never
say never. Not having the world experience of DJT, he’s
an infant just learning to talk. Imagine the possibility
of two candidates: one newborn, one a crippled, dishonest
old man unable to walk and chew gum at the same time.
It appears DJT is the punching bag for every wants to be
that enters the Pubby primary. Go, DONALD, go!
Please do. I can think of one. But who cares? I’m not voting now anyway. Let the computers vote for 5 or 6 times. We’ll be lucky to even have an election.
“Don’t blame others for Trump’s own failure to prove his own case.”
Well there’s plenty of blame to go around for the failure to prove any of the election fraud in a court of law. Corrupt and/or weak kneed judges top the list.
But that’s beside the point I wasn’t blaming DeSantis for the lack of progress. I was addressing DeSantis’s refusal to even acknowledge the problem. If he’s unwilling to acknowledge that there has been outcome changing levels of election fraud in the 2020 election, and now the 2022 election, then he disqualifies himself from consideration in my book. And that goes for any other candidate who won’t acknowledge it.
Because the GD GOP and losers like you couldn’t stand “populists” and working class staining your Tory party. You just couldn’t embrace puttng America first. Wallet first - America last is the GOP way. You power pigs had to stick with globalist and cheap labor. F the GOP.
Yes for two reasons. First he may win a write in and second it would destroy your precious GOP forever.
“Yes for two reasons. First he may win a write in and second it would destroy your precious GOP forever.”
“...may win a write in.”
Seriously? I’ll bet you think the stork brings babies.
“and second it would destroy your precious GOP forever”
It would also destroy what’s left of our precious Bill of Rights freedoms too. While you’re dreaming of pissing on me, you’re okay with putting a thumb in the eye of freedom loving Americans that don’t deserve it. Classy.
That may be true but the constitution doesn’t protect Hunter Biden and other family members and as I said the day after Biden himself leaves office he gets indicted as well
As far as the constitution, indict him anyway, since when has the constitution stopped the democrats
“our precious Bill of Rights freedom” are fake now. You don’t get it.
This person gets it. Its just that the only thing which matters is scoring points for their side, the GOP establishment along with getting rid of Donald Trump any way they can. Funny they should talk about the Bill of Rights and freedom as if it holds any true meaning. Those people threw meaning out a very long time ago. Is all uni party now.
Did he mean bring accountability to the DOJ like Kevin McCarthy beat Joe Biden over the debt ceiling?
BTW, where is the motion to vacate? Put aside while they dupe and gaslight their supporters? America First!
Dear Heavenly Father, please protect and vindicate President Trump. Crush his enemies under Your heel and obliterate the evil destroying our country. I ask all the saints above to pray for President Trump. Keep him strong unbending, keep his council wise, his faith solid. Bring him victory in accordance with Gods will. Amen.
“Charlie Kirk said on Twitter that any Republican candidate that didn’t suspend their campaign and travel to Miami to unite in support of Trump is part of the problem”
Good.
A pundit on Newsmax said the same thing.
He was really passionate!
If this was done the dems wouldn’t be able to steal the election.
Explain how Republican candidates suspending their campaigns and supporting Trump would stop the Democrats from stealing the next election.
