Trump accuses former press secretary Kayleigh McEnany of inflating DeSantis poll
NY Post ^ | 05/31/2023 | Lee Brown

She’s his new Mc-Enemy.

Former President Donald Trump has turned on his one-time White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany — accusing her of inflating poll numbers for his key Republican rival, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

“Kayleigh ‘Milktoast’ McEnany just gave out the wrong poll numbers on FoxNews,” Trump fumed on Truth Social late Tuesday, just after his longtime supporter appeared on Jesse Watters’ Fox News show.

Milktoast appeared to be a misspelling of “milquetoast,” a term for a timid or meek person.

“I am 34 points up on DeSanctimonious, not 25 up,” he said, using his nickname for the Florida governor running against him for the Republican nomination for president.

Its the way of mankind. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

We are already there and anyone who promises to do something about it will be crushed.

They all should focus on the federal spending and federal debt numbers instead of the poll numbers.

This is reminding me how when Trump would have rallies he would go on about the head count and call out the media for not showing the true crowd size. I’m glad he would point it out but referring to it more than once or twice, and bringing it up at media interviews- boring.

Why do you think Trump and DeSantis will be the only choices?

Yeah, he could have done that, but a lot of us would actually like to win elections. I know Trump and some of his supporters actually got tired of winning so much, but most of us did NOT get tired of winning, but of losing, and would like to change that.

Polling numbers and crowd sizes. You know, I have always looked at it as he is just sticking up for himself in the face of all the BS they were throwing at him and trying to reassure his base that things are looking good BUT I am starting to wonder if he doesn’t in fact have some kind of a narcissistic personality disorder. Before he ran for president yes he was a household name and I knew who he was but I didn’t know WHO he was. That said, I don’t mean to imply that he wasn’t a good president. I agreed with what he stood for and voted for him twice

And that's why I said WASHINGTON.

Now that we have seen that phony Rep. Tom Massie sell out on this debt ceiling bill, perhaps it will become clear to everyone that you won't find a conservative bone anywhere near D.C.

Securing our porous border, national security and rebuilding the military for just three main issues.

Only the first of those three is a major issue right now. Rebuilding our military is pointless when it isn't even being used for legitimate purposes. And "national security" goes out the window when the biggest threats to Americans lie right here inside our own borders.

Did the DS kill JFK? I am now 90% sure of it.

90% sure? It wasn't but a few weeks prior to Kennedy's own assassination that he had VOWED to DISMANTLE the CIA.

In case you had forgotten Kayleigh is NOTHING MORE than a PAID MOUTHPIECE who simply takes "orders from headquarters" in order to continue to receive a paycheck.

Kayleigh McEnany seems like a good person to watch for insights into the 2024 GOP primary campaign. The fact she used to work for Trump but doesn’t just regurgitate Trump campaign talking points works in her favor.

Securing our border goes hand in hand with national security, since every terrorist, commie and anti-freedom-loving, anti-American is waltzing freely (and probably gleefully) across our southern border ...and dispersing throughout the country with no vetting or tracking attempted. It is essentially thousands of ticking time bombs that can go off, anywhere and at any time in our future.

As far as rebuilding our military, we’re not talking about what is happening NOW. We’re talking about campaign “promises” to fix the problems if and when the next GOP president hopefully takes office.

“90% sure? It wasn’t but a few weeks prior to Kennedy’s own assassination that he had VOWED to DISMANTLE the CIA.”

And...didn’t that vow have something to do with him blaming the CIA for the Bay of Pigs disaster? I seem to remember reading something about that.

“Just so sick of his crap. He must be insane.
If he keeps this up he’ll damage DeSantis’ campaign.”

No, this will not gain him one vote and if this keeps up he will continue to give the Left fodder to attack conservatives with and he will continue to split conservatives. His psychology is being revealed and it is not pretty.

“Some of the anti-Desantis comments posted on FR (traitor, RINO, deep state, etc.) are so absurd that they surely must come from Democrat agents assigned to stir-up strife.”

Name calling indicates two things. One, lack of an argument so call names. Two emotion over reason. One can disagree without bloviating and name calling if one is mature.

“Yep, he just can’t help himself. He has issues and I’d rather not feed his disfunction for another four years when there are better options.”

Classic Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

“Why can’t he just be kind. Like Jeb.”

Why can’t he be mature and balanced like Reagan?
