DeSantis did not make it personal, it was well stated. Like him more every day.

Yep. He never mentioned Trump's name.

He doesn't need to. Neither does Trump.

“DeSantis did not make it personal, it was well stated. Like him more every day.”

A numbers argument (a mistake if anyone actually looks at them). And of course numbers don’t lie, but liars use numbers.

I like DeSantis as governor and have voted for him twice. Here is where the numbers come in, Trump’s vote total in Florida was 5,668,731, DeSantis’ vote total 4,613,783. While DeSantis might have won by a higher percentage, he got over a million less people to vote for him than Trump.

I know some whiners are going to say, well a presidential election is different. True, but no where a million vote different from the Gov totals. Usually the vote difference is half that.

In essence Trump way outperformed DeSantis.

Indeed - who is breaking Reagan’s 11th Commandment and who isn’t?

DeSantis deserves about as much loyalty as he’s giving. He wouldn’t be where he is without trump and is of an age where he could sit out this presidential election and take up the bid on the next election. He’s allowing his ambition to get in the way of what’s good for the country as far as I am concerned. It should go trump, desantis, desantis is they could just get their strategy together. Instead its going to be a dem again because of this sort of betrayal.

I for one will not vote for desantis in the primary, and if he does run against trump then I will never vote for him.

Plus, there is a lot of talk about his globalist ties and who is funding his campaign. Since he is essentially beholden to these donors, I’m not interested.

Take a look at who has funded his campaigns. You may make the same decisions.

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