Byron Donalds is a carpetbagging RINO. He is not MAGA. Renner is the way to go.

Ran it.

Trump Backs Donalds; Renner Record Issues

Why Trump Supports Byron Donalds

  • Multiple full endorsements calling him a "TOTAL WINNER" tested at highest levels.

  • Proven MAGA ally: Freedom Caucus member, Trump surrogate, America First fighter on border, energy, taxes, 2A.

  • Leads polls (50%+) and fundraising; decades in Florida (moved as teen, FL House then Congress).

  • Not a carpetbagging RINO—longtime FL resident and elected official.

Paul Renner Issues, Record & Experience

  • Gun rights: Voted yes on 2018 Parkland SB 7026 (age-21 rifle ban, red-flag laws). As Speaker blocked open-carry amendment to 2023 permitless-carry bill (called too controversial). Gun groups label it betrayal; he now pledges repeal and open carry.

  • Experience: Navy veteran, former prosecutor, FL House member/Speaker (2022-24). Helped pass school choice, abortion limits, immigration enforcement under DeSantis. No executive/statewide office experience.

  • Campaign weaknesses: Low single-digit polls (2-5%); massive fundraising gap vs. Donalds; no Trump endorsement; DeSantis called race entry "ill-advised." Attacks on Donalds seen as desperate.

Donalds holds clear MAGA advantage via Trump backing and record; Renner's legislative work is solid but undercut by 2A votes and primary underperformance.


Underperformance all around. So Sad.
