Exclusive — Trump Smacks DeSantis for ‘Campaigning’ While Fort Lauderdale Flooded: ‘He Should Be There’
Breitbart ^ | 04/15/2023 | Matthew Boyle

INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana — Former President Donald Trump ripped Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News here after his National Rifle Association (NRA) speech, saying DeSantis should be in Fort Lauderdale helping oversee the response to the flooding of one of his state’s biggest cities instead of touring the nation “campaigning.”

“He shouldn’t be campaigning right now,” Trump said of DeSantis. “He should be there.”

You always attack DeDantis from the Left like a Democrat. Conservatism without the LORD YESHUA in it is as bad as the left. The only solution is to stand up to cultural marxism and reaffirm that this is a Biblical Christian Country.

Meh. I think that the local clean up crews have it handled, it’s not like it ever floods in Florida. It honestly sounds like a comment that a Democrat would say. Seems like Big 45 has decided to run to the left this time around. Newsome is a good guy, Crist would be a better governor, Hanging out w/ Kanye. I guess Lock her Up!
Drain the Swamp! and Build a Wall! are just you know, slogans.
I figure some pep rallys and some sh@tposting on Troof Soshul is next.
Before you get all flustered, realistically how does Big 45 get to 270 EV? No emotional outbursts. No cult of personality crap. Just how? AZ MI PA WI are gone. Off the table.
Show your work.

That's really profound conboy.

I would like for Trump to be president again but I just don’t have that much confidence he would win.

Like he couldn't win in 2016 against 17 other GOP candidates and a political scion who was supposed to win in a cakewalk?

I believe he was cheated.

He fricking was. No other GOP candidate stands a chance against vote fraud.

Our nation cannot afford for the dems to win the White House again in 2024.

So you're going to support candidates who will fold like a cheap suit instead of fighting vote fraud and having experienced it first-hand?

Fort Lauderdale has not had a real flood in at least 75 years.

If DeSantis is NOT all over this issue with government assistance and sincere personal concern, it will be politically fatal - nationally, and in Florida.

Ya. I think that Reagan said once that Republicans shouldn’t attack Republicans.

Reagan and the 11th Commandment

The Ronald Reagan 11th commandment wasn’t necessarily set in stone like the rest of them—but perhaps it should have been. His famed 11th commandment dictated that Republicans, who were struggling to repair party rifts, needed to keep their dialogue and discourse with and about one another above board. It’s an idea that many in the Republican Party have been yearning to get back to.

" Afterwards Desantis’ numbers skyrocketed.

This is a lie. He trailed in almost every single poll of the race against the Democrat. He never "skyrocketed." Furthermore, Trump endorsed DeSantis in December 2017, DeSantis never had a chance to surge against Gillum because of a new Trump endorsement, you're literally just making crap up to suit your fantasy narrative.

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2018/governor/fl/florida_governor_desantis_vs_gillum-6518.html

The fact was Florida is trending red. That same year in 2018, Rick Scott ousted 18-year incumbent Bill Nelson from the U.S. Senate. Going to claim that was all The Donald too?

DeSantis won Florida in 2022 against a Democrat by a bigger margin than Donald Trump ever has and ever will in the state.

DeSanitized isn’t interested in governing. Like Hussein B. Obama he’s been running for president since day 1.

Your “ Conservatism” is useless against the left. The only thing that will defeat them is the power of the Gospel. Reagan knew it, and lived it.

Secular Conservatism can not beat the left
Only a biblical based Conservatism can beat the left, which is why they fear it the most, and make up lies about “ Christian nationalism.”

LOL! “Never-Trumper Trolls ?”

I voted for Trump twice.
- I want you to tell me how Trump wins 270 EVs.
- I want you to tell me what they’re doing differently to prevent the steal this time. If he couldn’t stop it as president, why should I believe he can now?
- He gave the green light for Ronna Romney McDaniel to be RNC chair. She was a failure in 2018, 2020, and 2022. Why should I believe doing the same thing over and over again will produce a different result?

Again, I would like for Trump to be president again but I just don’t have a high degree of confidence. If we lose in 2024, we’re done.

Trying to label people that supported him twice before as “Never-Trumper Trolls” is clueless and uninformed.

Reagan was a divinely ordained humble Christian man who boldly spoke truth, and through that spoken truth the Soviet Union fell.

Until we figure out how to stop the cheating (mail-in ballots, no signature verification, etc.), no Republican will win the presidency again. Quit pretending the quality of our candidates is what’s stopping us. It just determines how big of a steal the Dem☭crats have to pull off.

Still not getting it, we can't make alliances with the lbgt agenda, like Trump did. He should renounce that. Trump needs Evangelicals to win. But belive me, I'm praying for Trump to be truly saved.

The fact that a Mormon is GOP chair is a problem in itself.

Secular Conservatism can not beat the left

Roe v Wade - Overturned
3 additional Constitutionalists on SCOTUS
Protection of faith-based initiatives
Denouncement of the transgendered and homosexual movements

That didn't happen with "Christians" Bush I & II, and even under Reagan.

Only a biblical based Conservatism can beat the left, which is why they fear it the most, and make up lies about “ Christian nationalism.”

Only Constitutional principles can beat the Left. I don't care what grown adults do in private, just as long as kids aren't involved. Stop trying to micromanage people's lives.

Anyone could have beaten Charlie Crist, I mean give me a break.

I know that DeSantis is popular in FL, but will that translate nationwide?
