Charitable journalists giving Ron DeSantis sage advice on how to win in 2024
American Thinker ^ | 29 Nov, 2022 | Jack Hellner

I mean, clearly these leftists in the media have the conservative’s best interest at heart.

Ron DeSantis just won the previously purple state of Florida by 20%, and now altruistic leftists are giving him advice on how to win a national election.

These people, thinly disguised as journalists, have no desire for a Republican to win the presidency, or anything else, so conservative leaders should never take their “advice.” Their “advice” is meant to reduce a candidate’s support among Republicans, derailing the conservative cause. In a recent piece published by The Hill, journalists Amie Parnes and Max Greenwood lamented DeSantis’ lack of political correctness, saying:

He’s not warm and fuzzy[.]

Anyone who has followed DeSantis in recent years knows he doesn’t mince words. In fact, he’s intentionally over the top. There was the time he called outgoing chief medical adviser to the president Anthony Fauci a ‘little elf’ and said someone ‘should chuck him across the Potomac.’

I had no idea that the requirement for a president was to be warm and fuzzy. I thought competency and good policies were much more important.

Of course, most journalists and other Democrats voted for a president who inappropriately and consistently sniffs little girls’ hair, called a constituent a “dog faced pony soldier”, threatened to take Trump “behind the gym” and beat him up, called election integrity measures “Jim Crow laws”, and told a Black radio host that if he didn’t vote Democrat, then he wasn’t Black.

Perhaps the leftists in the media should focus on making their own politicians “warm and fuzzy” because at this point, there’s never been a less palatable president.

These writers say DeSantis overwhelmingly won because he gets the job done. Isn’t that the most important thing for a politician to do?

DeSantis calls out the dishonest media too. Not as much as Trump, but enough to make them hate him more than they did before.

Not sure I see the problem, here ...

DeSantis was being nice when he said that.

The establishment chattering classes gave helpful advice to McCain, too
Then shredded him after he got the nomination

DeSantis yes got alot accomplished in Florida. But outside of Florida in the Swamp he will get eaten. Sure the RINOS (Ryan, McCarthy, etc) are backing him now. Will he get the majority of MAGA to back him? Don’t think so! So bottom line he will lose!

No Republican is going to win in 2024. If you haven’t figured it out after the last few election cycles then there is nothing that can help you.

But we will continue to pretend like we really really gonna win next time.

hey let us install a few RINOs in the House and Senate and Governorships to keep us thinking we can beat their cheat.

The US MSM are well beyond just butt-hurt over Trump. They are effectively state-run media. They will say whatever they are told to say.

When Trump is out of the mix, these will be the mean tweets that DeSantis is guilty of.

Then an endless stream of “conservatives” will whine and bellyache about how they “like” DeSantis, but just wish he was a little nicer, and that’s why they are supporting Romney in ‘28.

I know. I was listening to Hannity yesterday while cleaning the garage.

Telling us we just need to get out and try harder. I swear, that guy is controlled opposition.

I had to turn it off. Better to listen to the cars going by than his clap-trap.

My advice to Governor DeSantis. What the losers in the media advise, do just the opposite!

The Leftists Piranhas in Big Media attack anyone who even remotely resembles an effective conservative leader.

The astute person will recall that even George W Bush was so viciously attacked that the term “Derangement Syndrome” was invented to describe the leftist reaction to him.

I don’t interpret that observation about DeSantis in The Hill as being advice for him.

The game is rigged and I am no longer going to play. The country is going down to the NWO because both parties are working together to make it happen.

Trump, DeSantis or any RINO loser man or woman is not going to win. People will be made to believe it could happen but it won’t.

I quit listening to FOX after I realized that they lead us on the right to believe we are going to win, then on the election night, they pull the rug out from under us that they created and applaud the cheat of the democrats

They do it every damn time. I have had enough of it.

Its sad but you are correct.
Unlike the GOP, the Dems have a very organized plan with multiple leaders in key areas.

Money
Attack
Agenda
SJW
MSM
Message control
Infiltration

What happened in AZ is an example of how they work.
They will do the same thing to anyone who opposes their agenda.

Those blue states that Trump won in 2016 have all been taken back by fraud this last election. They have Soros installed SOS. They were already setting up for the big one coming in 2024.
