Exactly.

Trump was so RIGHT to go after DeSantis early on.

Why wait to start running until the other guy is half way around the course?

Go ahead and jump the starting gun. Nice guys finish last.

Whatever it takes to win! Why? Because our country/culture/way of life is at stake, that’s all.

The END is near. ONLY TRUMP can fix it. (IF anyone can, may already be too late, even for Trump).

This article is about DeSantis. The fact that Uniparty played Trump in the White House is still FAR BETTER than Trump being one of them, as DeSantis has shown us that he is, given his siding with the Leftists on the Ukraine War.

Trump and his brand have failed to win general elections in 2018, 2020, 2021 and 2022.
Past his sell-by date. Time to move on.

You are correct, and Democrats thank all of you, please clap

All the comments.. this country is in danger of losing everything we have had.
You all disagree on what DeSantis would do on this and that..you don’t know how conservative nor how he would deal with pressure from the other side that is already working on him.

I just want Trump one more term to finish the job and clear out the stink.

I bet you thought Trump would never be indicted either.

I live in Florida..

Let’s talk about what “Uniparty Ron” has done here..

Signed a bill into law banning Chinese citizens from buying and owning property in the State of Florida, those who already own property here must report it to the State.

Took on one of the largest employers in the State, Disney for their pro pedophile and pro grooming political activity. (Also the 4th largest contributor to the Trump 2020 campaign)

Made E verify mandatory for every business in the State with over 25 employees or has State contracts.

Signed a bill into law eliminating DEI education and requirements at State Universities.

Banned Sex Education and Gender Identity discussions and curriculum for K-8 and extended bans on Gender Identity nonsense through 12th grade.

Ended the automatic deduction of Teacher’s Union dues from Teacher’s paychecks.

Signed “anti riot” bills into law provoking outrage from BLM and race pimps.

Signed a bill into law preventing the removal and vandalism of historical monuments.

Removed a Soros backed DA in the Tampa area who refused to enforce the six week abortion ban.

Signed into law that very same six week abortion ban.

If that’s “uniparty”..give me more of it.

DeSantis stands against the swamp


Does he stand against stolen 2020 election? If not, then he doesn’t stand against the swamp.

He sounds all tough about this, but he has no power to pardon anyone for anything except Federal crimes. That’s why they’re limiting their persecution to states — NY, GA.

What is with all these questions from the media about pardoning from the leftist media lately? And not just in this case, to every Republican? Never heard “Will you be pardoning Hunter or Joe” questions.

And what now should be done about the stolen 2020 election? It’s three years in the past. DeSantis made aggressive moves here against Vote fraud. How elections are run are up to individual states, so I’m not sure what DeSantis is supposed to do about cheating in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. Trump needs to move on and move forward. Focusing on Biden would be a good first step.

“Agree he’s pimping a bait election story he has been doing that of that of late.”

Yep, I think DeSantis also said that he would pardon the Jan 6th prisoners...same deal, meaningless now that he’s proven to be controlled by the Uniparty.

Funny, Desantis donors almost all used to be Trump donors. So I guess Trump is as establishment as establishment gets too…

“I’m not sure what DeSantis is supposed to do about cheating in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin.”

He can start by acknowledging it. After all, he IS running for national office now. The excuse that it happened in other states so there’s no need for him to address it, no longer holds water.

How to fix the problem is a difficult question. But, how NOT to fix the problem is easy. Not acknowledging it, and “moving on” is a guarantee that the problem remains unsolved. Any candidate who doesn’t promise to investigate the stolen elections of our recent past, forfeits their claim to being a swamp drainer.

No matter how bad conditions get between now and November 2024, the odds are that the Democrats will manage to steal the election again, so no Republican will be sworn in on Jan. 20, 2025.

But if by some fluke DeSantis does become the next President and meanwhile Trump has been found guilty by one or more courts (very possible given the judges and juries which will be deciding the cases), it should be obvious to any fair-minded person that the convictions were miscarriages of justice and DeSantis should pardon Trump.

But if DeSantis is the nominee and looks likely to win, the Democrats may gin up some state charges against Trump (which the President has no power to pardon). All very hypothetical because it's very unlikely DeSantis will become the next President.
