Governor Ron DeSantis’s Super PAC boldly announced 99 new Iowa county chairs last week, leading to revelations that Washington county chair Matt Wells had recently called Trump supporters “degenerates” and told leftist media outlets that he would not “piss on Trump if he was on fire.” Now, another of the Florida Governor’s picks has declared himself a hardline ‘NeverTrumper’, in comments unearthed by The National Pulse.
Ryan Frederick, who chairs the Never Back Down PAC in Adair County, Iowa, described himself as a “party loyalist” in comments to the press, but declared on X (formerly Twitter) that he “will resign as a county party chairman and probably not participate in the party apparatus again until people come to their senses,” in response to a Trump primary nomination.
Frederick, who has lauded the British monarchy “the ultimate form of government” for “national prestige and accumulat[ing] wealth and status through stability,” also railed: “If we think for 5 minutes that Trump is somehow superior to DeSantis, we don’t deserve to have a political party. The man is a farce, and always has been.”
In a comment to The National Pulse, Frederick elaborated: “I wouldn’t say my mind is totally made up on that point, but I’ve been a county party chairman for nearly 20 years, and frankly I think we’re foolish if we think Donald Trump is a better candidate than Ron DeSantis. The most important thing this party has to do right now is to nominate someone who can win the election next year, and the obvious choice is Gov. DeSantis. We have the opportunity to make generational change and to move the Republican Party light years into the future, rather than brooding on the past. If we squander that opportunity, I’m not sure I’ve got energy left to continue at the level I’ve been involved heretofore. Simple as that.”
Several of Never Back Down’s county chairmen in Iowa appear to be NeverTrumpers, including Joel Kurtinitis (Dallas County) who penned lengthy articles against Trump in 2016, and Matt Wells, who has lambasted Trump supporters in worse-than-Clintonian terms as “degenerates”.
Resign now then.
Later....tater...
Why wait?? Beat the rush!! Bu Bye!!
buh bye, see ya!
This is not about character or virtue, but reality, knowing that the ranks will be fumigated of all deepstate ops as soon as DJT takes the oath of office.
He looks and acts like a real winner…🤣🤣
Awesome! We’ll miss ya, PigBoy!
Promises, promises.
...but I’ve been a county party chairman for nearly 20 years..
20 years!, time for some new blood
the least he could do in some dramatic fashion would be to promise the uniparty supporters that if Trump is elected he will board the first flight to Ukrain with whoopee Goldberg and Kathy griffin. And I would fully support that decision
Good news!
Is this Rob’s “Be Likeable PAC?”
He looks like a weak sister twat. LOL
Just like every liberal who claims that they will move to a (whiter) country when a republican is elected , this guy isn’t going go anywhere when Trump gets the nomination
Well, Ryan Frederick seems to be substantially disconnected from reality, and clearly is lost in the wrong country and on the wrong continent.
Let that jack-wagon swim to the UK since he fancies such a dismal existence.
Summer Beard says Bye Lie
Be still my heart.
Don’t let the door.....
After Trump is locked up DeSantis will be in a good position to lead the GOP into the 2024 election, if not 2024 then 2028
