Minutes before Trump announcement, DeSantis receives standing ovation at Republican confab
Fox ^ | Nov 15 | By Paul Steinhauser | Fox News

ORLANDO – Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida received a hero’s welcome on Tuesday night, as he addressed an audience of leading Republican minutes before former President Donald Trump announced he was launching a 2024 White House bid.

DeSantis, who last week won a landside re-election victory for a second term steering Florida, garnered a standing ovation from the audience as he delivered a keynote conversation at the Republican Governors Association’s winter meeting in Orlando, according to multiple sources in the room.

According to one source, DeSantis spotlighted his "impressive re-election campaign" and how he won Maimi-Dade County, connecting with Hispanic voters.

Another source told Fox News that governor received an "enthusiastic" response as he "recapped the Florida blueprint and the path to winning Hispanics, women, and independents."

And a third source added that the speech received a very warm reception from an audience that is energized about the possibilities of taking the DeSantis model and applying it to battleground states across the country.

Minutes before Biden fell up the stairs of Air Force One, a dementia patient took a tumble in a nursing home.

Anyone too dense to see this pattern of the Left and MSM attempting to destroy both by incessantly attempting to create conflict is too stupid to be allowed to vote.
The Left and the RINO’s are incessantly stoking conflict in order to destroy both and divide the MAGA movement into factions and eliminate MAGA as a threat to the DC Establishment. THIS is so very obvious it simply cannot be ignored.

“Fox thinks they run the Republican Party just don’t watch them and after 2020 they had no choice since their ratings started to fall off the planet”

That won’t be a problem because I’ve never given Fox News the time of day. Their “look at me” hosts and the way they present information is stupid.

I’m a data first type and fox is into trivial human interest stories, which I can find on other media sources.

A illegal immigrant committed a crime.

The liberal college professor did something.

My conservative cat wouldn’t come down from the tree when asked.

The liberals are going to jail because........

Fox is bad media, I’m glad people are figuring it out.

Florida needs De Santis at the helm

As soon as he leaves, the Left will try to turn the state.

If there’s a Democrat in the White House, all manner of
chicanery will take place.

Florida is important, because it is a swing state every
election. We lose it, and we’re in big trouble.

With Trump in Washington and then De Santis, the state is
covered from Washington, which is important.

If Ron runs for the nomination now, wins it, and loses, the
State of Florida will come under direct attack from
Washington and the person after Ron may not be very
savvy.

Then we are destined to lose in 2024. There is no way in hell Trump won't run 3rd party if he doesn't get the nod. Trump believes he is owed this, for all this shit he gets. This is personal. Either Desantis steps aside or joins Trump, or we lose. That's just reality. This isn't just going to go away.

Fox has nothing that I want. Tucker Carlson and Jesse Peterson keep them alive. I don’t care for Levin because his voice is irritating when he gets worked up. Hannity is me, me, me, and also excruciatingly boring. There are a few other bright spots but I can’t watch them because I don’t have cable.

“I just want DeSantis to stay put. I am concerned about Trump’s age, though.”

His age won’t be an issue running against King Tut.

I think the chances are infintesimal are also.

I do value Trump’s BS in Economics degree, which I think was
big help to him in his first term.

The media doesn’t tell us what we need to know.
The media tells us how they want us to think.

This article is a claer attempt to make you think that RD is the better POTUS option.

be aware of the prpaganda meant to divide a nation that WANTS to be great again.

Okay, so? What does one have to do with another? What a ridiculous headline to combine a news story out of two completely separate events.

Exactly!!!!!!!

All the left and the GOP-E have to do is screw him out of the nomination and he’ll run third party.
