Trump Takes Yet Another Shot At DeSantis: "I got 1.1 Million more votes in Florida than Ron D got this year, 5.7 Million to 4.6 Million? Just asking?"

Trump is meat that’s been left on the counter overnight. Toxic to too many. He appeals to only the die-hard fan-boys, and has become unelectable at the national level.

Trump is running in '24. Desantis will get crushed if he tries to go against Trump.

You will be voting for Trump in Nov. ‘24.

Get used to the idea.

Where else are you going to go?

Trump failed to mention how DeSantis had over 3.1 million votes tabulated against DeSantis. The Democrats’ best hope for being unified and motivating their people to vote in 2024 is for Trump to be on the ballot.

Trump 5,668,731
Biden 5,297,045

DeSantis 4,609,112
Crist 3,102,136

It’s what he always does - they set up a trap and he jumps in head first.

They want to destroy DeSantis and will use Trump as a pawn to do so. They know exactly what they are doing and Trump is falling for it.

Trump is acting very jealous and envious because of the way the media is acting - he lets things get under his skin. Comparing total votes in an off year election is also beyond absurd. DeSantis got nearly 60% of the vote. That’s the story. DeSantis convinced many more people to vote for him by convincing them his way of doing things was right on substance. DeSantis fights back just as hard and doesn’t let it get under his skin. His military / JAG officer background probably helps with that, I’m sure.

Welcome back from 2019, Anonymous coward.

I see a LOT of posters have resurfaced, to jump on to the Trump Slamma Jama wagon, in the past few days.

I prefer your comment from 2015, a few comments down, in your scarce FR feed …. It would serve YOU, and, many others well, to re-read it …

…………

TRUMP is just a big Dog. He is not ideologically pure, but what we need now is not a perfect return to the values that made us strong, but first a slam down and beatdown of all the pernicious ideas that have been eating away our core.

And Trump is good because he is a fighter, and he will use wile, guile, ridicule and yes, strong-arming to smash anyone who wants to weaken us. Both internally and externally.

We mostly agree, my FRiend.

No fan of the duplicitous McCain am I.

Part of being Presidential is to think before you say things, and "I like people that weren't captured, OK?" goes beyond, beyond "OK".

His verbal swipe at DeSantis will likely ire more undecideds than convince to favor Trump.

In the 2020 primaries, Trump had the tailwinds of a fairly successful presidency and the fact that the incumbent is the de facto nom.

This time? He, and everyone running (and it'll be a large group of moderates, RINOs, and Trump and DeSantis) will need to convince GOP voters that he is the best choice. In some ways, it's his to lose, as many Trump voters have a strong attachment (not a bad thing). In other ways, and paraphrasing the never-Trump WSJ, Trump continues to be his own worst enemy. Voters, like me, who believe that competition between the two front runners will reveal the better nominee, observe that Trump might be blowing it early.

well, Biden got more votes than Crist. Trump has a huge naïve streak, he is taking the bait of divide and conquer.

Trump is self destructing. He needs to stop talking about 2020, people are hurting with inflation all over the country.

Talk solutions and policy, send $5 million to Herschel so we win the Senate, and declare a truce until the Run Off is over.

Maintain the Trump the Fighter, but against that radical hippie Warnock and Moron Biden.

Trump should try making stepping stones, not walls.

But that old dog will not learn new tricks.

That’s it.

My friends ‘like Trump but they want someone who gets along with everyone, as ya polite, someone the media likes, but can take power.

They want a democrat or a democrat who calls himself a Republican- a RINO, or their husbands who might be nice and also protective but are not slaying dragons -ie the devil- in DC

This fight is getting tougher. Dems will never give up RINOs are worse. It is not for the faint of heart

They could be trying to reconcile Trump’s bad staff choice record with this

Well one thing at least- anyone he chooses gets raided threatened or bribed thrown in jail.

"...DeSantis is flirting with Paul Ryan ..."

Don't let the proud collaborator on TrumpRyanCare hear you bad-mouth his partner.

"Comparing total votes..."

Ron must be a real gentleman to NOT point out how dumb is aging Don's argument.

Trump brags that DeSavage won by a margin literally 3 times the size of his own.

Very Stable Genius!

Well, except for the Stable part. And the Genius part.

On the other hand Trump took Florida by 3.5 points while DeSantis took Florida by 19.4 points.
