Ron DeSantis looks more and more like a political amateur by the day.

The Refuge is a joke. He’s nothing more than a paid hack now. Paid by the post.....

Nope, DeSantis is confirming every day he is a career politician, and will be controlled by his rich donors just like all career politicians. Only thing Ron cares about is his career.

He’s a politician who will say what it takes to get conservative votes, then pivot left for the general, then govern like every other GOPe scumbag. No different.

DeSantis knows how to win elections and enact conservative policy but when it comes to the art of politicking, he's definitely got some learning to do.

If DeSantis not attending the event cost Lee Zeldin the governorship of New York I can understand the hurt feelings.

What this article doesn't make clear is why President Trump - who must have known of DeSantis’ treachery - didn't immediately step in and make an appearance at the event and save Zeldin’s campaign.

Trump has the reputation of King Maker but in this case Trump let Zeldin lose. Why?

Yep, you DeSants-bots are thin-skinned when it comes to anyone criticizing your Special Eighth Day Creation.

Rush Limbaugh use to quote Sundance on his radio show.

I think Rush has at least a little more credibility than you.

DeSantis was a part of the New York republicans surge in November. Campaigned on long island for all the winning candidates and for Zeldin. The idea that he supported Hochul is the new dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. Especially considering Hochel’s covid incompetence.

“He’s a politician who will say what it takes to get conservative votes, then pivot left for the general, then govern like every other GOPe scumbag. No different.”

Hell, he did that ‘growing’ regarding Ukraine in about 4 days (from anti-war to pro-war). I think Ukraine is a special case, though, as the Deep State DEMANDS that Trump’s anti-war position remain isolated among major Republican figures, which DeSantis nearly destroyed by initially being honest about Ukraine (basically none of our business)....but they did tell him what was required, and he complied.

“The contingency for the contribution”

What a nice way to put it.

Took the check and screwed the pooch.

Not even as backup singer.

“… Cayre told DeSantis that he supported Zeldin’s Democrat opponent Kathy Hochul. The contingency for the contribution appeared to be that DeSantis would cancel attendance of the dinner for Zeldin. DeSantis took the Cayre donor check and at the last minute cancelled his attendance at the Zeldin dinner.…”

I did not know that. Not good.

Next time, read all of the article for all of the context.

The claim is that DeSantis cancelled his fundraiser with Zeldin as a condition of getting the money from Cayre, NOT that DeSantis supported Hochel.
