Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said Thursday that the Manhattan indictment of Donald Trump was “un-American” and that his state would not help hand the former president over to New York officials.
The conservative Republican, who is expected to challenge Trump for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, said District Attorney Alvin Bragg was weaponizing his office by bringing charges after impaneling a grand jury to look into hush money payments to pornstar Stormy Daniels
“The weaponization of the legal system to advance a political agenda turns the rule of law on its head. It is un-American,” DeSantis said on Twitter.

DeSantis won’t even say Trump’s name. This is an example of a politician doing the absolute minimum that he needed to do.
Wow, you are sick anti-Cristian. Did you cheer when Audrey Hale shot up that church?
It's a DeSantis stunt...
Since most of the rich are now liberals, I say "Tax the crap out of the rich!"
No, I said nothing of this sort and not sure where this came from.
No, I didn’t decide the Constitution is void either.
I’m not sure what you are talking about now.
Yeah, kidnapping people is prolly not helpful.
If DeSantis were to do that, he would probably earn my vote. It won’t happen, so we can stop with these ideas. Trump will surrender, there will be a YUGE spectacle, he will hire some fossil as counsel, they will ultimately convict him, and we will totally own the libs on Twitter and elsewhere. Oh, and the Democrats will win the White House again in 2024 because they will just cheat. Again.
“So you want DeSantis to take a bullet for the guy who implied he’s a child molestor?”
Good point! Why should we ever expect a politician to defend the rule of law when it might help a political rival who’s said mean things about him? That’s asking too much of a future presidential candidate.
What the hell?! He didn’t suggest anything like that.
What about his secret service protection?
Low Tax Tranny Reading Hour, brought to us by The National Review. I can totally see it. The drag queens will read Milton Friedman essays to the children they are grooming. So much conservatism! Our values!
P.S. the other day, I wondered if you simply had Monty Python memes at the ready at all times. Your response time is impressive. A nod’s as good as a wink to a blind horse!
A Trump stunt.
Deep State is likely using the indictment in part in an attempt to rehabilitate DeSantis.
That is the implication of Post #15. You don’t believe in the Constitution, which it plainly says.
First of all, the Constitution specifically requires extradition. But there is no extradition in this case.
I agree the rule of law. Which specifically states extraditions are mandatory.
The jury pool will largely be against Trump, as they reside in NYC. Alvin Bragg will make sure the empaneled jurors are his people. The convictions are pretty much a certainty.
Why would they? They hate DeSantis.
