Friends of ron desantis was a soft money pac created to seek donations and fund his re-election for governor.
This pac was also what desantis has planned on using, to illegally convert and use to fund his run for president.
FEC campaign laws say it is illegal to convert state level campaign donations to use in federal offices, and regulations concerning limits and fund raising for federal offices are stricter than many states.
desantis appears to have deliberately lied and hidden his intent to run for president, and delayed any announcement, in part to avoid FEC campaign laws regarding running for federal office/president.
Trump’s “4-D chess” was supposedly to keep his friends close and his enemies closer, or so that was what the Trump chumps rationalize away his horrendous judgment of character. The truth is Trump never met someone he could trust, and has a bitterly perverse sense of loyalty. Which is why his cabinet and inner circle includes:
William Barr
James Mattis
Mark Esper
Rick Perry
Alex Azar
John Kelly
Kirstjen Nielson
Andrew Puzder
Alexander Acosta
Rex Tillerson (!!!)
Elaine Chao (!!!!)
Steve Mnuchin (!!!!!)
Michael Cohen
Rick Gates
Paul Manafort
Roger Stone (!!!!!!!!!!!)
Timothy Mellon
Robert Wood Johnson
Sheldon Adelson
Deutschebank, to which he is indebted billions of dollars
But DeSantis is evil because globalists.
Amen
President Trump treated people like they were/are government... He did not seek Congress to hide anything ... I just cannot imagine any cause that would require a governor's travel to be sealed. You will never be as 'good' a person as President Trump, in spite of his many flaws .... and for that matter neither will your Saint Desantis... Saint Desantis has NOTHING to offer this nation ... all he has is his need to be somebody. So he slips around the globe pretending he is somebody and some of the masses hail him like he is 'Mary'... It is revolting to watch the deification of this one term governor.
Both Ryan and Rove have been hyping DeSantis and trashing Trump since, and that includes many of Trump's candidates BEFORE Election Day.
Many of those candidates needed RINO Senate approval.
Anyway I believe Trump has now learned how deep the Deep State is.
I believe DeSantis is where Trump was in 2016.
I don't want to go through that again.
You don’t think that he has attorneys that have worked all this out to make sure it is completely legal?! Your attempt to cast aspersions on him is boring.
Oh for chrissakes.
Submit a complaint to the FEC using your real government name if you actually think this is an election law violation.
Good luck toppling a sitting US governor with a professional legal staff, who himself happens to be an experienced legislator and trained lawyer, with your internet searches.
FR vanities are just circle jerks that lead nowhere and you all know it.
All you’re doing is pissing off people that you are desperately going to need in your camp and on your side... in order to win ANYTHING. Not a real bright plan or tactic. Almost leftie-like in its stupidity, in fact.
Very good points. It screams rat.
DeSantis people were knocking on doors and handing out literature in my neighborhood on Saturday.
Several months ago, a big DeSantis supporter on FreeRepublic, who I don't see around anymore tried to do a similar thing to Trump.
The poster claimed that Trump raised money to fight the steal in 2020 and then transferred that money over to his presidential run.
I guess you would call that DeSantis poster leftie-like, right?
Duck Fesantis.
And I’m still waiting for the desantis supporters to defend why they want desantis, a deceptive liar, and apparent criminal with the conversion of the campaign funds, as president, and how anyone knows when desantis is telling the truth.
I’m not a DeSantis supporter, but will try to answer anyway.
DeSantis supporters are not judging him and Trump using the criteria you are using.
There is not broad consensus that DeSantis is a deceptive liar.
There is not broad consensus that DeSantis is an apparent criminal regarding these campaign funds.
You are judging DeSantis and the entire situation using criteria other than the criteria others are using, for judging the GOP nomination.
If others start using these criteria, there will be more productive conversations surrounding the idea of people thinking DeSantis is a liar and all that.
“I guess you would call that DeSantis poster leftie-like, right?”
Only if their claim is untrue. If it’s true, speaking the truth is never “leftie-like”.
I don’t see how the claim could be true, considering the fact that there are rules and laws regulating campaign donations and their use.
Bottom line, this circular firing squad BS is self-destructive idiocy that the left is using against us (divide and conquer). I can’t believe so many are falling for it.
maybe you don’t understand it, because you either don’t clearly see who Ron is, or you don’t care about the truth of what he has done and is doing that would harm the USA even more?
“Ron’s plans to run have been well known for a long time.”
but Ron said no, he would fulfill his gov term, then played stupid any other time asked. so according to Ron, his plans weren’t known - even to him.
In both cases?
You clearly do the game of "I don't understand why so many Trump supporters won't vote for desantis if he is elected'
Then prop desantis up as being conservative, sucessful, etc.
But your postings don't go the other way.
And people can see if they search your name, and look at your postings.
So the 'not a broad consensus that desantis is...' is because desantis supporters don't want to acknowledge the real fake, deceptive, liar desantis is, by what he has done.
His actions with the campaign funds is clearly illegal, and what he hopes to do, is get a deadlock with the FEC, so he gets to spend the $85-100 million for his presidential run.
I don’t like door knockers.
Btw, have you ever seen this short video? It’s a pro DeSantis political campaign commercial. You might have seen it, if not....
God wants Ron DeSantis to be Governor?
It starts out, I paraphrase, “And on the 8th day, God looked down on his planned paradise and God said, “I need a protector, a person to serve the people”

And it’s this real mysterious voice...Very odd.
