No it’s DeSantis who is dividing the party if he runs, especially after saying earlier that he wouldn’t.

The media has been attacking DeSantis over and over again on every issue.

Nothing more than controlled opposition. The Propaganda Media is playing patty cake with DeSantis because he's not a threat to RINOs and Democrats, unlike Donald Trump.

Intelligent and wise folks change. They consider their errors,make corrections and grow as a human. Folks that are unyielding, blame others and have an inability to self reflect, self destruct. Being unchanging is not a virtue, it’s a character flaw.

Trump is a 3 year old baby. Nobody owes him anything.

he has never wavered ... he said he will focus on Florida ... he has a wife with health issues ... he has young kids ... he has no desire to go to DC at this point in time ...

Erik Latranyi; jimwatx So far, you have not shown a single piece of evidence that DeSantis is anything less than a full blooded conservative and has governed that way.

State of Florida
Office of the Governor
Executive Order 20-51

Section 7. The Florida Department of Health, pursuant to its authority in section 381.00315, Florida Statutes, will ensure that all individuals meeting the CDC's definition of a PUI are isolated or quarantined for a period of 14 days or until the person tests negative for COVID-19.

Real conservative, using a test that the creator warned was not to be used for testing for COVID-1984.

DeSantis also created checkpoints to screen motorists in "an effort to contain the spread of the coronavirus". Notice how quickly that idea died when no one would get on board with it.

Trump is flawed, like every man.

He fights.

I cannot spare him or substitute a non-fighter.

So, your evidence is that in the early days of the pandemic, the Florida governor followed CDC guidelines?

What other guidelines were there? Please show your evidence.

You have none. You are a moron. Everyone was following the Trump-CDC guidelines in those early months. But when it became clear the virus did not endanger anyone except the elderly and those with comorbidities, DeSantis told the Trump-backed CDC to pound sand and re-opened the state.

Oh, DeSantis also turned against the vaccines that Trump still endorses today without exception.

So, please show me how DeSantis is less conservative than the CDC, Vaccine and Fauci backing Trump again?

What good is fighting if nothing gets accomplished? I’m not voting for anybody because they say all the right things or p*sses off the right folks. He’s becoming Don Quixote.

“Desantis - meet the definition of Club for Growth stooge.

You guys are so gullible lol”

Rather than making allegations, please provide some examples - like Soros backing a building Trump built in Chicago.

Don’t worry DeSantis won’t run in 2024. Surely he knows if he does the butt hurt ever Trumpers will throw a tantrum, stay home and give the Dims the race because their lord and savior, DJT, didn’t get the nomination that was “owed to him”.

DeSantis will run in 2028 and beat the incumbent Dimocrat in the WH. Hopefully the nation can withstand 6 more years of Dimocrat control.

BTW, did DeSantis say we wouldn’t run (future) or did he say he wasn’t running (present)?

“Desantis - meet the definition of Club for Growth stooge.”

Fact - deal with it if you want to smear by association:

1n 2004, George Soros backed Trump for Trump Tower in Chicago with $160,000,000.

There seems to be a desire by some to split the Republican Party apart.

And, unfortunately, Mr. Trump is leading the effort.

In a new Truth Social post, Donald Trump posts video of Ron DeSantis saying he sees himself as the next “Paul Ryan” leader of the Republican Party.

Me too. He’s the adult in the arena. I’m sorry but Trump going after DeSantis is insane.
