Fine, but then why ding him for supporting the ONLY Republican Senate Candidate in this race? It's not as if it's a Primary, and there's a Real Conservative DeSantis could've endorsed, instead.
It's counterproductive to punish DeSantis for advocating that Colorado Republicans settle for half a loaf, instead of pouting, going on a political hunger strike and staying home. Conservatives cannot afford to pitch a potential Republican Senate seat to the Democrats just because the only Republican running is a RINO. THAT IS NOT a viable action plan for setting up Congress to help a GOP President come 1/20/2025. YES, we'd like to quash Mitch's undermining, but to cut off our nose to spite our face won't get us there, and DeSantis is acting as clear-eyed about this as anybody.
If Conservatives in the GOP are ever going to gain a more dominant voice in Washington, it's going to have to be an incremental strategy that will necessarily include some RINOs who get elected ONLY to secure GOP majorities so Conservatives cannot be TOTALLY silenced a la the Jan 6 Committee. Until there are no RINOs anymore, that's a Reality we'll have to cope with in a NON-DESTRUCTIVE fashion.
Until they are driven to extinction, a RINO here and there will be a necessary evil.
How is Desantis thinking for himself, being disloyal to Trump?
Lol.
Trump is mad because the guy he didn’t endorse for Senate isn’t endorsing him for President in 2024?
He needs to stop. Who is going to not vote for someone because Trumps feelings are hurt? I’m sorry but we’re trying to feed our families out here.
People are getting Trump burn out. It’s ALWAYS something.
Burn out? Hardly. The Trump wave will begin in earnest after the mid terms.
Desantis is making too many mistakes. He is not reading the room correctly. He is not ready to be President.
This is telling. I just showed this to a few people. They had no idea.
