Former President Donald Trump ramped up his attacks against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis on Friday, releasing a campaign statement claiming the popular governor’s record in the Sunshine State is “one of misery and despair.” In a press release titled “The Real Ron DeSantis Playbook,” Trump provided a long list of reasons why Florida “continues to tumble into complete and total delinquency and destruction,” and argued that it has become one of the least affordable states to work, raise kids, and retire.

“The real DeSantis record is one of misery and despair,” campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said. “He has left a wake of destruction all across Florida and people are hurting because he has spent more time playing public relations games instead of actually doing the hard-work needed to improve the lives of the people he represents.”
On his social media platform Truth Social, Trump on Friday also shared a number of polls showing him far ahead of all of his potential GOP competitors.
The attacks come amid speculation that DeSantis is planning to launch a 2024 run for president in the coming weeks.
According to Florida Voice reporter Brendon Leslie, the Trump campaign sourced far-left Florida blogger Jason Garcia for its anti-DeSantis talking points. Garcia regularly trashes the conservative governor from the left on his Substack and on social media.

If you wouldn’t even vote for De Santis if Trump endorsed him it shows exactly what you are. Preferring any democrat to De Santis means you are as worthless as the democrats.
Some of the most ardent Trump supporting posters on this forum are actually democrat moles. They want to divide the Republican party like Perot did in 1992 and 1996 to allow Biden to win again. Would you advocate Trump running as a third party if he doesn’t get the nomination?

So desantis’ actions as if he is running for months doesnt speak to you? You need to wait for the words?
Thats like saying the train didnt go by even though you saw it and were so close it almost sucked you under but you didnt hear a train whistle so you say it couldnt have gone by.
Its also why repub citizens get snookered so often. They wait for dotted i and crossed t while dems just plow thru on their agenda.
Pathetic, what is causing Trump’s desperation?>>. You might want to read some of Trumps books. and some of his comments to a lady who owned a house near his Atlantic city resort. And the guy who accurately blew the whistle on Trumps having to refinance his Casino debt.
I wonder what Biden did lately that was poor? Don’t ask Trump, not his priority apparently.
Trump is now a certified “nut case”.
Trump is now taking his cues from Governor Nuisance. Stop piling on! It doesn’t help anyone except Democrats.
“I have been here since 2008. It doesn’t bother you that Trump continues to attack DeSantis from the left? That he quotes joy ried? He is a 2 year old.”
Trump is a 2 year old? Haha. How old are you?
Lol… the president who locked us down, restricted travel, unless you’re his unvetted Syrians, no freedom to assemble for more than ten, unless you’re burning cities, no earning wages unless you are deemed essential or the how many billions for big pharma.
Trump handed the country to birx n fauci and claimed the deep state made him do it.
A bumpstock ban and mail in ballots as his gifts to the left to ensure his tyranny is permanent.
The vax he loves to brag about has hurt people, babies in the womb.
As the leader who approved, then pushed it… he is responsible, Biden just accelerated what Trump started.
Some of my leftists were oddly cheering for Trump especially after the bumpstock ban.
I know many here would give him their last weapon, last round and call it 4d chess.
The trump bots came to FR in 2016 and pushed one another into popular posting. No longer was there debate, reason and gentlemen agreeing to disagree.. it turned into and still is an all caps fight of ignoring the entirety of trumps existence and record. He has no accountability even as people died alone in hospitals and homes, without even the humanity of a funeral.
We suffered and lost much freedom under trump. His vax enabled the Biden administration to strip every critical institution of rational, reasonable leaders.
Trumps endorsement of homosexuality gave birth to the natural progression into what is the tranny library shows and schools filled with diversity.
Who is "we" you refer to? Do you have turd in your pocket or something?
Which POTUS was as successful as Trump? Look at what Trump accomplished:
Who the heck can accomplish the above in four years while being impeached twice and investigated by Obama's Weaponized Agencies?
He’s stepped in it now ( for the 800th time ).
The Passive-Aggressive behavior on Desantis part is a feminine trait. Not a good look.
Trump is ready to take on the Deep State. He is fired up.
If DeLoser ever gets the nod, in ‘28 whenever, if ever,then Trump is doing to him what the Left Wing Media will do to him then.
DeLoser better get used to it.
RINOs love DeFakeOut.
WA style over substsance loser like you is a bad endorsement for DeTrojanHorse.
