Mike Lindell Rages ‘Media is Covering-Up for Ron DeSantis’ at CPAC: ‘He’s a Trojan Horse!’

Pillow tycoon turned conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell raged against Florida governor Ron DeSantis at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Thursday, calling the popular conservative a “Trojan Horse.”

“Now I’ll tell you what Ron DeSantis — and he’s got money behind him — did he do anything for Disney? Remember that was the big thing, you’re gonna go after Disney,” began Lindell. “He did nothing, they got everything they wanted, everything — look it up!”

“The media is covering up for Ron DeSantis. He is a Trojan Horse, he is the Trojan Horse,” shouted Lindell on the convention center floor. “Do not believe anything you’re reading by the media about ‘Ron DeSantis'” warned Lindell, indicating that air quotes belonged around the governor’s name with his fingers.

I’m going to vote for the guy that says we need to investigate the CDC and put those responsible for funding research/then covering their tracks at the Wuhan lab, in Jail. If that guy is Desantis, I will vote for him. If that guy is Trump, I will vote for him.

Well it sure won’t be Trump, because not only was gain of function research restored under his admin, to this day he won’t even mention the words gain of function. Trump wants to pin it 100% on the Chinese, when per multiple factual reports they got all the technology from us.

I like Rand Paul. I think of those I know, I’d take DeSantis and Paul as my desires for president.

I’ll wait till the GOP Shakedown takes place and then I’ll make a decision. Right now it’s 2 years out and there’s so much s*** that could happen it is just not predictable at this point. Y’all are just blowing hot air way too soon.

Well Trump was responsible for pushing through the experimemtal vax at the cost of immunity for the pharmacuticals.

He was outsmarted by the swamp "Big Leauge" over COVID-19, and he knows it.

I think that is why he is so butthurt by a Governor who hasn't even declared yet.

>>>> Even Soros wants DeSantis to win. 🙃

>> Imagine being stupid enough to believe this.

It would make perfect sense for Soros to want DeSantis to win the primaries. But that doesn’t mean Soros wants DeSantis to win in the general.

Right or wrong, many of us believe Trump is the best candidate for 2024.

DeSantis should defer until 2028, and continue to serve FL before then.

They're panicked because their idol is panicked, and hot air is all he's ever capable of himself.

“DeSantis is the closet establishment choice.”

I believe this 110%. Same way 0bama was first SELECTED as a Senator in Illinois via DIRTY DEEDS, and then made a ‘speech’ and became the Leftists’ DARLING. *BARF*

In his defense, according to BRANDON he was, ‘clean and articulate!’

OMG. We’re so screwed. So, SO SCREWED!

WHO ‘represents’ us in this friggin’ UNIPARTY?!?!?

No one. You’re on your own. Plan accordingly.

I like Rand Paul I just question if he could win the general. Same for DeSantis. Trump pulled in more minority votes than a conventional Republican, and we lose those votes with the other candidates. A recent poll had black support for Dems at 80% as opposed to the 90% they were before.

Maybe he doesn't want to watch the destruction of America continue for six more years until 2028. A trump presidency means more gay marriage celebrations, budget busting omnibus bills, gun control EO's, and worst of all probably another scamdemic since trump orchestrated the last one so well, and still claims to have done such a wiz bang job. That's even if he got elected, which he can't. He's done nothing to secure elections, or win over voters in the states he lost last time.

Yes, it’s true, but for nefarious reason as is always the case with demonic Soros.

Mike, I think you are great, but DeSantis is not a Trojan Horse.

He may be a spoiler, but he’s a legitimately reasonable Republican, but he seems too close to ¡Jeb! and a few others I don’t trust.

I am totally ashamed of the Republicans. They’d rather shoot each other in the foot than join forces and do some winning. I don’t think I can be a card carrying Republican any more.

Soros stated it a couple of times. He thinks if DeSantis wins the nomination the Democrats will win in a landslide.

Right or wrong, many of us believe Trump is the best candidate for 2024.

And many of us believe that Trump has no path to the White House in 2024, a belief buoyed by his loss in 2020 and the dismal performance of his handpicked midterm candidates in the critical swing states he would need to flip.

And Trump winning the GOP nomination will guarantee the Democrats not only win the White House, but retake the House and keep the Senate as well.

Rand Paul has been growing on me. Trump is still my top choice with DeSantis second. I like Mike Pompeo, too but selfishly, I want him to come back to Kansas and run for governor in 2026. I don't see him winning the general election if he were to somehow get the presidential nomination which is a long shot.

Only on the condition that Trump, defeated in the GOP primaries, mounts a quixotic third party crusade as an independent candidate.

In which case, Soros would be correct. The Democrats would indeed win in a landslide, Trump and DeSantis would be soundly defeated, and both men would be expelled from elective politics forever.

This is what Soros wants to happen.

I agree. Despite all his flaws, I think that Trump needs to be the guy.

You didn't watch the full clip. He said if DeSantis wins the Republican Party nomination, sore loser Trump will switch to 3rd party and destroy DeSantis chance of winning out of his well known vindictiveness.

There is no evidence for this. I wish people would quit baying like jack-asses about it.
