Ron DeSantis has been accused of making his “worst strategic move” of the race for the Republican nomination so far, getting into a scrap with a conservative women’s group by scheduling an event in New Hampshire on the same day as their annual fundraiser.
“It’s just stupid, actually. You don’t take on the New Hampshire Federation of Republican Women,” said GOP strategist Mike Dennehy of the Florida Governor’s move to counter-programme the “Lilac Luncheon,” which is being headlined by his opponent former president Donald J. Trump.
The GOP women’s group put out a statement chastising DeSantis: “[I]t has always been a New Hampshire hallmark to be considerate when scheduling events,” they complained. “To have a candidate come in and distract from the most special event [the women’s group] holds in the year is unprecedented.”
“If there’s one thing you don’t do in New Hampshire, it’s piss off the grassroots women,” commented a source described as an adviser to one of DeSantis’s rivals. “Don’t mess with them, they remember everything. Rookie move.”
Dennehy, a former staffer on the Rick Perry presidential campaign in 2016, also warned “it could be death by a thousand cuts” for DeSantis if he continues making unforced errors.

As do I.
"And the GOP can die a Swamp death too.."
I think it's time for a Patriot Party. I'm already there if and when.
"I am a Deplorable though. And an American citizen.
And a voter who will happily write Trump in if your R Swamp stupid party plays the stupid game"
If the swamp makes it necessary to "write in" Trump's name, that means DeSantis will be the backup candidate who I will vote for. No write-ins will win, IOW. Remember, we have an electoral system in the USA.
"Your FBI has consequences.."
Not so far, but hope springs.
You may find that, unlike President Reagan, Ron’s will be a trail of tears.
He could’a been a contender.
A hurried shot often goes wide of the mark.
Well, they could invite Trump as alternative speaker and he could regale them with stories of adultry, grabbing pu55y, paying off porn stars and hookers, and his great women hiring choices that he later trashed for disloyalty. Should be an engaging conversation.
Oh, and don’t forget that Trump could tell them again about coming down the gold escalator. Or is the Golden Escalator. Yes, they will be impressed.
The REAL standout from this Poll is that Biden leads Trump and DeSantis by 9!! Si much for “ Live Free or Die” TRADE NEW ENGLAND FOR THE CENTRAL CANIDIAN PROVIDENCES.
“Somebody has to point out the idiocy of his...”
Well, point out some idiocy. Saying someone is an idiot is not pointing out idiocy. You are engaging in the very thing you condemn Trump for doing, so, by your own measure, you are an idiot.
“and that of the Trump Onlys, campaign of personal and political destruction against one of our own (no, not “MAGA”, but patriotic, anti-Marxist Americans).”
The object of your heart’s desire voted for the trade agreements that would have ended American sovereignty. Yes, I am Trump only, the only one the whole damn evil world is trying to destroy because he stands for MAGA.
“let the best man win” mantra?”
That is Trump.
“The FACT that Trump supported and donated to MANY heinous Democrats in the past should give you guys a hint not to do what you are doing against DeSantis.”
He loudly proclaims that he did. In his world at the time, he could not operate successfully unless he did, to both parties at the same time. It was legalized bribery.
Screw DeSantis, the little ingrate. He won’t last very long beyond the first few primaries. He is too stupid. The governor of Virginia stands ready to pick up the pieces.
“Well, point out some idiocy. Saying someone is an idiot is not pointing out idiocy. You are engaging in the very thing you condemn Trump for doing, so, by your own measure, you are an idiot.”
I realize that you’re not bright enough to get this, but you just made and proved my point. Thanks for that.
“but you just made and proved my point.”
And what point was that? You never made a point, except it is okay for you to smear Trump but it is rude for anyone to smear the effeminate DeSantis.
Florida governors are limited to two terms, dumbass. Just further displays your lack of political astuteness. Please shut up and let the big boys debate.
Well since DeShortBus isn’t really governor now maybe this term doesn’t count.
Just, wow. For a guy that’s not governor, he sure has been signing some legislation since declaring.
Your governor is a politcally tone deaf backstabbing idiot doing the bidding of a facst regime. He is wasting political capital like no one’s business. He is taost.
“Rookie move.” … “it could be death by a thousand cuts”
OUCH!
Was it the white go go boots?
I know it’s hard to post with one hand while beating off on your Trump poster with the other, but if you are going to rant and rave, try using auto-correct. It does work with one hand.
Vulgar response .
.
See the NH polls. LOL.....
Aren’t FL governors restricted to two terms?
I was all for Pat in 92 and 96. To my regret I did not vote for him in 2000 as the “Reform” candidate; the winner of that election gave us Alito but little else.
I guess but maybe the term doesn't count when a FLA gov is gallivanting around the USA running for POTUS.
