“DeSantis is a strategic idiot. He could have backed Trump, remained Gov for 4 more years and then become the heir-apparent after Trump leaves office. This way, he’ll lose fair and square, and will always be looked at as a loser that chased his own political aspirations at the expense of his constituents in Florida.”

It didn’t hurt Reagan one bit to run against Ford in the 1976 primary. It gave him national exposure and set the stage for his victory in 1980 .

One can only surmise from the constant attacks on DeSantis from Trump supporters here is that they greatly fear DeSantis defeating Trump in the upcoming primary. Otherwise, they’d pay him no attention.

DeSantis ain’t Reagan, and Trump ain’t Gerald R. Ford

What’s funny is the crazies were never going to support DeSantis in 2028, either.

And there's this: Trump is best when he's funny, but for the true comedic timing to flower, he needs a foil.

Ron is going to be a great foil. And the experience dealing with Trump will be good for him in future contests. It's going to be a blast!

Ron DeSantis is a little man who needs to be canceled to make way for the next contender to be canceled.

One at a time is the TRUMP way.
