George Soros wants to destroy the Republican Party. He’s made that very clear many times. So when Trump loyalists started spreading a video of remarks he made recently purporting to show Soros endorsing Ron DeSantis over Trump for the Republican nomination I knew there was something very fishy going on.
Soros did express hope that DeSantis is the Republican nominee, but not because he thought the governor would make a good president.
He hates DeSantis just as he hates Trump. What he wants is a 3-way race for president, which would guarantee a Democrat victory.
He is convinced that if DeSantis wins the Republican nomination that Donald Trump will jump into the race as a third-party candidate and lead to a Democrat landslide in the 2024 election.
You can listen to the full remarks here:

Here is the end of that clip which was left out:

Trump proxies are spreading the calumny that DeSantis is a globalist disciple of Soros, and that Soros let slip his support for DeSantis as leader of the free world because he would do the old man’s bidding.
How desperate can you get?
Sure, Soros stated the obvious: Ron DeSantis is shrewd and capable, but Soros clearly sees that as a bad thing were he to win. He is shrewd enough and capable enough to give the Left a very hard time indeed.
It is Soros’ judgment, though, that Trump is such a narcissist that he would rather doom conservatives to another 4 years of Biden than allow another Republican to win.
I can’t endorse that judgment because I don’t really have a bead on Trump’s psychological state. He is notoriously full of bluster, obviously self-centered and arrogant, but that doesn’t mean he would rather the country go to hell than be supplanted as leader of the Republican Party.
It’s possible, of course. Trump is Trump, and by nature very unpredictable. And we do know that his adherents would take a bullet for him.
What I am sure of is that those partisans of Trump who are spreading an edited clip of Soros’ remarks are being highly deceptive by cutting off the conclusion of Soros’ remarks. This isn’t a low blow; it is intentionally lying to deceive fellow Republicans into believing something that is manifestly not true.
If DeSantis weren’t a public figure this would border on slander, since these people must know they are lying.
Here’s the clip that the Trump supporters are sending around to mislead people. And, I am afraid, it has worked with some Trump-aligned supporters who will buy the deceit.

We expect people to spin things, so I shouldn’t be surprised.
Yet, of course, I am. This is such a ridiculous line of attack that it surprises me that anybody could take it seriously. But of course, some do, because they think Trump walks on water and everybody else is a globalist sellout.
I could just as well argue that Soros is endorsing a Trump 3rd Party run, and might even finance it. After all, that would serve the purpose he reveals here: destroying the Republican Party.
I suggest that if Trump’s supporters want him to get another shot at the White House they start doing something other than slandering their competitors. Is Trump so insecure that he can’t run based on his accomplishments as president?
Texas would be all it would take to sink any third party hopes, and there’s likely others that would stop any sore loser attempt. If Trump chooses that route it would be clearly vindictive and serve little other purpose other than chest pumping, but some might say the same thing about J6.
Soros says Desantis is the man to beat and then sends his minion Romney out to say Trump is the guy to beat.
They’re just pittong both sides against the other to stir the pot.
It was an endorsement in the sense that $0R0$ wants to promote whoever he thinks has the best chance to take the nomination away from Trump, who he fears more than any other potential candidate. In no way does he want either Trump or DeSantis to be president, he hates them both.
Thanks for posting.
That was posted by someone who would surrender their last round and last weapon in trumps 4d chess.
They are butt hurt because trumps presidential record is this: mail in ballots, guaranteeing perpetual tyranny. Travel restrictions, unless you’re an unvetted Syrian, no freedom to assemble, unless your burning cities, billions to big pharma to save us all, a bumpstock ban because he is anti 2A.
Trump handed the country over to a career bureaucrat.
EUAs are only authorized for very specific circumstances. I printed the 2020 EUA CFR.
So it was either an abuse of power or we are in real trouble.
Bottom line: trump folded like Lindsey graham when the left betrayed him.
FR changed in 2016.. trumps personal record was always big government leftism. But there is a group of people that would take every covid shot he asked them to and obey without question.
They are not rational people, they are like the audience of the view who are obedient without question. Holocaust levels of obedience.
They are more dangerous than rational people of any ideology.
We know Trump isn’t Deep State.
I’d argue that the jury is still out with regard to DeSantis.
With its 180 on FEMA aid to East Palestine, Deep State just telegraphed who it fears, and it isn’t DeSantis...
After 2020?
Why even play politics anymore?
Its like a hobby now. If you like sh!tty hobbies that make you mad. Like building a matchstick house with rubber bands.
Putting together models and jigsaw puzzles with missing pieces.
What Fun!

Well no shit. Boy, you can’t pull one over on this guy.
LOL ... yeah ... but just look at some of the other posters on this forum ... LOL ... hook, line, and sinker ...
maybe for you ...
Nobody fears Trump at this point. Dems and RINOs hate him but they don’t fear him. If you want to see what a second Trump term would look like just review his first.
What he wants is a 3-way race for president, which would guarantee a Democrat victory.
Spot on the no wins don’t care it’s a nice money grab from backers if the lose their in fat city.
