Trump has put in the work and I think no one sees DeSantis as the MAGA air apparent any longer. It’s clear that if he wins the nomination it’s a clear win for the GOPe
What a great resume!
“brings on Ted Cruz’s campaign manager”
that’s an extremely bad sign for a desantis campaign ... cruz ran a nasty, scurrilous, dirty-tricks presidential campaign ... those same dirty-tricks and lies would totally kill any goodwill that desantis might start with ...
“He’s dead Jim!”
Oh great
Wonderful move
“These Chicago rioters are Trump supporters”
That moment killed Ted on this forum with most of his diehards
DeSantis has too many Trump-hating neocons advising him.
He needs to cool his jets until 2028,and run on Trump’s miraculous economic recovery.
Cruz was the marquee "conservative". Jeff Roe was his campaign manager. Eventually the establishment would line up behind Cruz because he was their only hope to beat Trump.
And now here we are in 23/24 with the establishment trying to stop Trump again, this time with their guy DeSantis.
Sorry Jeff Roe, I won't be heading back. This time I'm going with the common sense, anti establishment fighter, and not the establishment conservative poser.

All ANYONE needs to know about Ron De Santis, from this point forward, is the company that he keeps. ROE is a SCUMBALL personified.
I planned to take a neutral approach to De Santis.
Not anymore.
You want war MFers?
You got it!
Another reason to vote for Trump!! Like we needed one. DeSantis is going to get so bloodied up that he will be unelectable in 2028. We warned him!! Trump 2024!!
Is this the guy who sabotaged Dr. Ben Carson’s campaign in Iowa? If he had a hand in it, he’s a dirty trickster.
DeSantis could have gotten Karl (Marx) Rove on the cheap...
When Ron announces he will have his own campaign manager, and it is unlikely to be Jeff Roe who took this job.
From Ballotpedia here is a little bit about what makes a Super Pac "Super":
A super PAC is a political committee that can solicit and spend unlimited sums of money. A super PAC cannot contribute directly to a politician or political party, but it can spend independently to campaign for or against political figures. These committees are also called independent expenditure-only committees. A super PAC is not legally considered a political action committee (PAC) and as such is regulated under separate rules
So, what about Trump's SuperPAC?
Trump's super PAC has $53.4 million for his 2024 bid
Trump's super PAC has $53.4 million for his 2024 bid Trump's Save America PAC largely funded the new super PAC, MAGA, Inc.
MAGA, Inc., a super PAC aligned with former President Donald Trump, the Trump-aligned super PAC, has $53.4 million to spend supporting Trump's presidential bid, thanks largely to funds Trump raised himself.
The super PAC had $53.4 million had on hand as of Nov. 28, per a new fundraising report filed with the Federal Election Commission on Thursday.
The super PAC, which launched in late September, became Trump’s main political arm. The vast majority of the $73 million the super PAC raised since it was founded through Nov. 28 came from transfers from Trump’s PAC, Save America.
The Save America PAC has been Trump's main fundraising and political spending arm since Trump left office. But now that he's a candidate, he'll need to raise and spend money used specifically for his presidential campaign through his official campaign committee.
So while Trump can't solicit money to his new super PAC, he was allowed to send money from his Save America PAC to fill its coffers before announcing his run for president. MAGA, Inc. is run by Taylor Budowich, Trump's former spokesman and a close aide.
