SOROS: 'DeSantis is shrewd, ruthless, and ambitious. He is likely to be the Republican candidate'
https://thepostmillennial.com ^ | 2/16/23 | Roberto Wakerell-Cruz

Globalist billionaire George Soros predicted that Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will defeat former President Donald Trump for the GOP presidential nomination ahead of the 2024 election, and that Trump will run as a third-party candidate.

"This could induce Trump, whose narcissism has turned into a disease, to run as a third-party candidate. This would lead to a Democratic landslide and force the Republican Party to reform itself," Soros said at the 2023 Munich Security Conference, according to the Washington Examiner.

"DeSantis is shrewd, ruthless, and ambitious," Soros continued. "He is likely to be the Republican candidate." Trump, he said, "has turned into a pitiful figure continually bemoaning his loss in 2020. Big Republican donors are abandoning him in droves."

Soros, who is known for giving hundreds of millions of dollars to leftist causes, is the head of several networks and groups that promote social causes like climate change. He is also known to back soft-on-crime district attorneys.

Continuing on Trump, Soros said: "Trump is a deeply flawed character, a confidence trickster whose narcissism grew into a disease. He feels no commitment to democracy; democracy merely provides him with a stage on which to perform. As president, he was more interested in hobnobbing with dictators than in promoting democratic principles. Trump’s role model was Putin, who amassed a fortune while asserting total control over his country."

"Trump attracted a lot of non-educated white followers, but his biggest backers were the mega-rich — and he certainly delivered for them. First, he cut their taxes. Second, he nominated to the Supreme Court ideologues who embraced an extreme version of the Republican agenda. Third, he brought the Republican Party under his control by threatening those who didn’t swear loyalty to him with a challenge in the primaries," Soros said.

"Lastly, he encouraged Republican-controlled states to introduce outrageous measures of voter suppression to ensure that his party would remain in power indefinitely. With that program, he was almost reelected in 2020," he concluded.

How 2015 of you, never mind the bad links and hard-left sources. Trump’s actions as POTUS shows what he’s about and it’s not Soros’ agenda.

Opus?

Trump wasn’t getting any traction, so he sent his buddy to say some nice things about DeSantis, sending the faithful into a feeding frenzy. Predictable.

Well if we're simply judging by actions, then DeSantis is far more conservative than Trump.

The only thing Trump or his supporters can seem to find to pin on DeSantis are these pathetic attempts at guilt by association.

According to Trump’s EO’s, he’s a WEF man. Puts him in Soro’s camp.

Actually, no. Never mind false comparison. Whatever DeSantis has achieved is thanks to Trump’s precedent in fact.

But we don’t have Princes or Kings who are somehow owed eternal personal loyalty.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
We also don’t have any potential candidate that has exhibited the courage to take on America’s foreign and domestic enemies that President Trump has demonstrated both before and after the stolen election. Disagree? Then name one!

It’s an offhand endorsement but I doubt it’s genuine. Im an Ultra MAGA but in fairness to Ron, Soros is only saying this to stir the pot.

Are you asking me to list all the EOs, subsequent reports and WEF agenda?
Doesn’t anybody here read them?
5g, Ai, biotech farming and animals, IoT, Tele-Health, mRna vaccines, Fintech, et al.
All WEF Agenda. There’s more, that off the top of my head. You will even find amongst his EO’s Klaus’ “stakeholder” verbage.
There are links in my history.

Soros is just trying to get as many big names in the GOP contest as he can.

A costly primary wastes a lot of money and leaves less for Trump in the general election.

I really cannot imagine anyone else winning the nomination.

I would support DeSantis if he were to win the nomination, but I just don't think he can beat Trump.

I would like our candidate to be loyal to the voters who elected him to fulfill his term.

Biden was never a sharp guy. Just a rambling, pontificating blowhard crooked cheat who was, and still remains, wrong about everything.
