Seems like they’re the right guys to hire for GOP joke writing.

That is dirty pool. That is as bad as when Mitt Romney bought the search terms “Ron and “Paul” from google so he could control what Google spit out about Ron Paul.

Not even the Bee can hurt DT. All they will do is make him more popular.

Oh, where are the DeDantis purists that were on the We Hate Trump thread today. That Boy Scout Ron isn’t so pure after all is he? Maybe Trump brought up the pictures in response to this?

21k? LOL

“Video from June 2020 shows DeSantis threatening bars with revoking their liquor licenses unless they abided by his arbitrary restrictions enacted supposedly in the name of science:”

June 2020 was pretty early on. When exactly did Trump change from the initial shutdown experiment, and how broad was it by June 2020? The article should at least include that information to show the contrast.

Great, now this insane toxic rivalry will damage Trump, and DeSantis, and the Babylon Bee. Why not try to ruin Reagan's reputation while you're at it?

Is anyone -- anyone -- trying to improve Republican odds in 2024?

Unbelievable.

We (well they) are already tearing each other part and we wonder why we can’t beat a loser like Biden.

Babylon Bee has poked fun at President Trump forever. They could have made the same story without the donation.

A better question would be if they would poke fun at DeSantis if someone on staff comes up with a joke.

Well, there is a lot of low hanging fruit to be gathered.

Desanctimonius is a coward. He’s afraid to attack out loud. He won’t have my support if he is the nominee

i hope they think it’s worth it

their audience is 1/2 of the country, alienating 1/2 of them, prolly isn’t optimal...

So why doesn’t Trump have his campaign pay the Babylon Bee for some jokes and one liners?
The reason is that Trump figures that he is his is own genius at the one liner and zingers. That he doesn’t need the Babylon Bee.

Uh, anyone can donate to the Bee. Even you. Or Trump. And for the record, the Bee has produced plenty of articles with Trump as the butt.

So...DeSantis still isn’t running, but there’s a RAFT of folks pretending he is.

NONE of them folks you’d want to hang out with, of course...

I have TOTAL DISDAIN for such pretenders; festering pustules on the arter end of society, if you ask me.

RINOs
Never-Trumpers
Assorted leftists

All butthurt and still boiling inside.
Let ‘em seethe. Do death, if necessary.
