President Trump just called Ron DeSantis a globalist. He’s 100% right. Here’s a long thread with everything i know so far to validate his point.
1. War
DeSantis said Trump wasn’t tough enough on Russia and advocated for more lethal aid to Ukraine.
He also voted to sanction Iran, Russia and North Korea while Trump opposed it. Earlier he wrote a joint letter to John Kerry, asking him to force Ukraine to join EU to fight against Russia. His former press secretary is a foreign agent who worked for a Zelensky official.
He seemed to support a regime change in Venezuela. Called the current regime illegitimate and wanted a “free Venezuela”.
He also supported the unending war in Afghanistan, called to use everything in our arsenal.
Not to mention his best friend Kent Stermon, who was the COO of Total Military Management. DeSantis lived in his condo when he was in congress. And of course in return, he appointed him on board after he became the governor, just like he did to other lobbyists.

Read the article. There is a difference between state economic policy and national economic policy, especially in the foreign arena.
Will he appoint Globalist after Globalist? Trump NEVER should have fired Bannon. He should have canned the little globalist princess and her globalist husband instead.
What has the article and the difference in economic policies of Federal and State got to do with the fact that DeSantis, and every Governor before him since the mid-90’s has had a Republican majority in both Houses of the Florida State Legislature?
I can agree with you on that one. Without Kushner, there would be no Abraham Accords though. He never should have let General Flynn resign either.
I 100% agree. Bannon and Flynn were his best assets, and we need more like them. No globalists.
Fact. Without DeSantis voters, Trump is dead in the water.
Even with them, his odds are slim. This isn’t about who wins the primary. This primary is about shaping the dialogue for the next election. All these candidates count for that process.
Most political neophytes on this board think name calling and gotcha post help their candidate. Wrong. People better wake up because this party is so divided and it looks like Trump will keep it that way and go down with the ship. Right now, he’s running a losers campaign. Just like Hillary.
Meaningless bullshit.
Trump created a financial real estate empire, Ron has no such accomplishments......There's that.
He got elected in 2016 without DeSantis voters. Rick Scott was Governor at the time. Dialogue and policies won't matter if the election is stolen again, which I'm sure it will be. No matter who is on the ballot for the Republicans in 2024, they won't be allowed to win. That's the truth of the matter.
President Trump was the first president to actually be chosen by the people that is why the establishment and the clueless hate him.
Lake would have been a people chosen Governor so they dared not let it happen. Does no one remember how Presidents used to be chosen by smoke filled backrooms at a convention? When mass communication became available the tactics changed but were no less manipulated by the elite. Early primaries were engineered to make a candidate of their choice begin to emerge as a favorite helped along of course by endless fake polls showing how the people loved or hated a candidate.
I have to admit that at this point I wonder if Trump and McConnell can ever effectively work together again - their beef has gotten very personal. And if Trump’s second term is to produce anything that outlasts his time in office, he must have legislative wins.
Only one thing can lead to that, fake elections.
I would argue that this party was divided long ago without Trump; he was just a catalyst exposing the disease by providing a stark contrast. The disease was always there, and I think it is tempting for some people to return to the status quo and start trusting the GOPe. Voting for them, taking their words as gold, all the while, they stab us in the back.
WITHOUT Trump voters DeSantis is dead in the water!!! I WILL NEVER vote DeSantis NEVER! Completely and totally DONE with the GOPe, for DECADES I have fallen in line and held my nose and voted for their globalist, open borders, Neocon pussy candidates, the ONE TIME in my life I was elated to vote for a candidate AND he won these scumbag bastards gave us all the middle finger and have done EVERYTHING they could to DESTROY his life AND his supporters lives We NOW HAVE political prisoners GOPe DOES NOTHING!! We have been attacked by the FBI, IRS, CIA, HSA, republicans have DONE NOTHING!! We have been censored at every turn and republicans have DONE NOTHING………SPIT, NOW the bastards have the utter audacity to impeach Paxton!! We lose the country Dem or Republican it is TRUMP or NO ONE for me I AM DONE!! DeSantis and his GOPe team are going to be utterly shocked at how many people feel exactly as I do and stay home!! I can not believe the hours I have spent over the last 5 decades making calls working in the offices, walking door to door, sitting in front of supermarkets registering voters, working the polls, donating what money I could, AND JUST LOOK AT MY COUNTRY, SCUM ALL OF THEM, I HOPE THEY ALL ROT IN HELL for what they have done to Trump and the people who support him!! He is a good man and deserved NONE OF THIS!!!
So if someone walks up behind you and knows the cr@p out if you, you should attack the guy in front of you? Got it.
Ask DeSantis the same question?
It's MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction)
For people that grew up watching National Conventions like me, we had no clue what deals had to be made to get the key votes, but we accepted what ever they produced. Trump is the first President that was actually chosen by the people who voted for him and I doubt that will ever happen again until Jesus returns.
“Dodged? In what way?”
These days it usually means that someone isn’t old enough to have lived through the draft. So they don’t know the difference between a 2-S deferment, legal, and draft dodging, a crime.
The draft ended in 1973 along with our participation in Vietnam. 2-S deferments ended earlier than that, in 1969, when the draft lottery was instituted.
