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.”

He constantly makes things harder on himself, also his personal choices were awful.
And he sucked upto the media too much.
What have the done for this nation? Name a big achievement they have accomplished.
The last one to achieve any accomplishments for the Republican Party was Newt Gingrich with his Contract for America. But they couldn't even stretch that winning movement for very long, because in reality the leadership within the GOP was, and continues to be, non-existent, weak, & totally unimaginative.
I am happy to inform you that the chocolate ration has been increased to one piece.
Dark or milk?
Florida 2020 election votes received by Trump 5,668,731
Florida 2022 governor election votes receive by DeSantis 4,613,783
Trump received a million more votes than DeSantis received, from Floridians, in Florida.
Now it's true that Ron DeSantis handily won re-election as Florida governor on November 8, 2022 by the largest margin of any Florida governor in 40 years according to Associated Press VoteCast data. But that has nothing to do with Donald John Trump.
In a head-to-head vote count with Trump, albeit in different elections, Trump trounced the DeSantis vote count, even while DeSantis rightly earned the above accomplishment.
Trump.
Making political enemies, when he could be wisely and diplomatically making critical allies.
I'll vote for whomever wins the GOP nom.
As Trump shrinks his base and gives the Dems material for ads each and every day, however, I'm part of a select group that gets smaller every day.
When you call someone a “loser” it behooves you to spell it correctly, lest you embarrass yourself.

I would say it would be easier for them if they knew what was done, if anything was done. Frankly, it may have been Biden’s turn to have lightening in a bottle.
Comparing a governor election to a presidential election seems a bit off balance to me.
Wrong. It floods almost every time it rains here for a couple days straight. Then goes away after the rain stops.
So Ron agrees to be the heel and damage his career in order to rob the consultant class blind? That doesn’t really pass the smell test. The GOP consultant class is not going to run out of money anytime soon.
What matters is the bottom line - who’s going to win the 2024 general election? Trump or the Dem (presumably Biden)? Having Ron play the heel doesn’t improve Trump’s position in the general election in any obvious, meaningful way.
If the two of them have concocted a plan to have a fake feud, it’s not a very good plan. It accomplishes very little and probably does more harm than good.
I think what he meant to say was that Trump is the only President to get more votes than his previous election - and “lose”. If you know of any others, let me know.
Trump is right.
They’ll steal it from DeSantis too.
Did trump get 74 million? Seems strange he’d get more votes Then 2016. Cheating on both sides. Republicans just didn’t cheat enough.
I don’t believe for a second that DeSantis begged for endorsement from trump. Show me the video. Trump exaggerates constantly.
“I predict Ron will drop out in mid-summer. “
He hasn’t actually dropped in yet. And maybe all of this IS theater in a way you described. It’s hard to keep up with the nonsense.
I’m already sick of this 2024 race. None of it matters as cheating will be 10X worse than 2020 cheating.
“He gave the green light for Ronna Romney McDaniel again to be head of the RNC.”
Right. That was a hugh and series mistake on his part. How many times does a person have to betray Trump for him to say, “Enough already!”? WTF was he thinking, anyhow? Lindell might be a dork, but he’s our dork, 100% all in on Trump and fair elections, and works tirelessly.
Ronna... pfffft!
