Former President Donald Trump criticized Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida Thursday in a statement posted on Truth Social, calling him an “average” governor who was “politically dead” and in “desperate shape” before Trump endorsed him in 2017.
“Ron came to me in desperate shape in 2017—he was politically dead, losing in a landslide to a very good Agriculture Commissioner, Adam Putnam, who was loaded up with cash and great poll numbers. Ron had low approval, bad polls, and no money, but he said that if I would Endorse him, he could win,” Trump said in the statement.

DeSantis defeated Adam Putman, the Republican Agriculture Commissioner, in the 2018 Republican primary for governor by 20%, according to Ballotpedia.

The swamp are not, at all, afraid of Trump.
They just hate him.
He got little to nothing done against the swamp. He actually dove into it at Warp Speed.
They want Trump to destroy Ron, who the left does fear.
I don’t doubt you at all which I thought was obvious with my last reply.
My account got hosed and Jim nor John could figure it out so I created scripter. BTW, Carol Roberts was that red haired election worker who said she would cheat to get Gore elected, so I used my screen name to poke fun at here.
This is wrong on so many levels. When DeSantis was a congressman, he was always out there defending Trump early on.
Yeah, Gov Ron!
2 more years.... 2 more years...
Do believe the two of us are seeing more eye to eye. There
is an important reason the two seem to be at odds. DJT must be aware of the strong possibility his base might evaporate
over the petty remarks, yet he continues nonstop. Me, now
imagining a scavenger hunt and the two are searching for the
last and final item on the list. As yet, neither one has been
fortunate enough to find it. There is a reason, important reason, to gamble away all one’s winnings.
Next you’ll be saying that DeSantis stole Melania’s panties.
Maybe that’s the big sordid scandal rumor that Trump is spreading!
👀🤡😎
Not vote for an idiot from New York.
Again, who do you want in ‘24? Answer or STFU.

Good point. I noticed Trump left that out of his rant, too. MAGA Twitter is just smoking Trump now. He’s losing the grassroots big time. Total self immolation.
Howard Hughes?
I don’t get it.
DeSantis was NOT the first choice of the Florida Republican party. That was Adam Putnam just like Trump said... Putnam's a good man and also supported Trump at the time. But Trump chose to back DeSantis. DeSantis became a natural - he might be the best Governor we've ever had.
That said, before Trump our guys (mostly boy scouts) - were spending most of their time 'apologizing' for hundreds of slights democrats condemned them for. Every 'card' worked - the slightest hint from some bimbo and our guys were gone. Same with the race card, the gay card, the 'hurt feelings' card etc etc etc... Fake hate crimes were everywhere, fake sob stories fake outrage...
TRUMP TOOK THOSE CARDS AND tossed 'em.
DeSantis was able to do what he did because Trump cleared the way. AND the deep state hates Trump. Which is telling. Trump, DeSantis, and about 25 others of 'our best' need to get together and come up wit a plan. Musk could be invited too...

Trump will be 78, Biden 82. Let. That sink in. If ever there was a time that a 3rd party could win it would it would be then.
Whether as a team or working apart, it seems to me they are
on a scavenger hunt and searching for all items listed.
This must be something very important they desperately search
for. DJT must be aware he stands to lose much of his base due
to his petty obnoxious behavior, yet he doesn't stop. Why? Why would he gamble all his winnings on something so minute?
Do hope whatever it might be, they find it soon. These antics are becoming ridiculous.
Ok, if not Trump then who do you want to run in ‘24?

Oh so Desantis is running in ‘24?? I was told he isn’t running and Trump needed to leave the poor man alone. I am so confused....
