Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is being destroyed on social media for refusing to say that President Donald Trump is innocent following the announcement of his indictment on Thursday.
“The weaponization of federal law enforcement represents a mortal threat to a free society. We have for years witnessed an uneven application of the law depending upon political affiliation. Why so zealous in pursuing Trump yet so passive about Hillary or Hunter? The DeSantis administration will bring accountability to the DOJ, excise political bias and end weaponization once and for all,” DeSantis said in a statement following the announcement of Trump’s indictment.

Many critics on social media pointed out the weakness and cowardice behind DeSantis’ statement that was carefully constructed by his handlers:
Ron DeSantis says nothing should be done about DOJ’s partisanship unless he is President.
He doesn’t call for an end to the Trump witch hunts. There’s no call to action now.
This is a strategic blunder from a Tallahassee team used to dealing with an overwhelming majority of Republicans. https://t.co/9mHPyqCRrk— Richard Grenell (@RichardGrenell) June 9, 2023
“DeSantis administration”.
Every single Republican should be calling @RonDeSantis out for this disgusting, blood lust, power hungry post.
What a vile pig he is for making a campaign pitch off of President Trump being indicted.
I cannot stand with anyone who supports Ron DeSantis in 2024.It’s where I draw the line. https://t.co/dj2MgUuVej— Laura Loomer (@LauraLoomer) June 9, 2023
I think it’s absolutely disgusting that people like DeSantis and some others who used Trump to advance their careers are now trying to politically capitalize on the political persecution of Donald Trump.

Big League Politics has reported on how the RINO globalist elite are coalescing around DeSantis as the man who they believe can upend Trump’s America First agenda and divert the Republican Party back to the ‘good ol’ days’ of Bush-ism:
“Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is quickly becoming the favorite of the globalist RINO mega donors who want to “move on” from Donald Trump.
Ken Griffin, a globalist RINO mega donor, talked to Politico about why he is backing DeSantis because he sees him as the vehicle to move on from Trump and his brand of populism that has made the GOP less hospitable for soulless corporations that have sold America down the river.
“He did a lot of things really well and missed the mark on some important areas,” Griffin said. “And for a litany of reasons, I think it’s time to move on to the next generation.”
Griffin has given $5 million to DeSantis’ gubernatorial re-election campaign in Florida. He is hoping that by buying favor with DeSantis, he can convince him to run in 2024 in an attempt to end the Trump revolution.
“Would I support him? The bigger question is, is he going to run? That bridge has to be crossed,” he said.
“He has a tremendous record as governor of Florida, and our country would be well-served by him as president,” Griffin added.
It is clear Donald Trump is intending to run for president again in 2024 from the comments he has made.
“Everybody, I promise you, in the very next — very, very, very short period of time, you’re going to be happy,” Trump said. “But first we have to win a historic victory for Republicans on Nov. 8.”
In addition to the RINO megadonors, the notorious former House Majority Leader Paul Ryan is also on board for DeSantis in 2024.”
DeSantis has emerged as the most dangerous and subversive RINO to date. Trump is the last hope for the country. Either he defeats the deep state or the Republic is lost forever – those are the stakes facing us in 2024.
Whaddaya know. Every DeSantis thread is loaded with RINOs and Leftist trolls. Wonder why....
Oh sure DeSantis supporter, Trump should have done it all by himself...
Pathetic...
Who needs to cheat when onlytrumpers will just stay home if for some reason he’s not the nominee.
Is trump and Jr still defending bud light?
Trump is probably guilty of some of the charges. That doesn’t mean it was right to press charges, but...
There is good evidence he was keeping classified that he KNEW was classified, that he did not de-classify while President, and that he tried to conceal his possession after receiving court orders to turn it over.

If the Swamp wants to swap it up,
The R and D co owned swamp can by all means go back to the Bush,Dole, Bush,McCain,Romney years that birthed the glory years of Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama era..
Those were the Swamp Days!
Cheating in elections may actually be a time honored tradition in the R vs D Con..
The good cop/bad cop con isn’t working when all the cops are swamp first..
Exactly. I have never personally liked him. I voted for him in 2016 because Hillary was NOT an option. In 2020 I voted for him because even though I didn’t like him he did a good job running the country. You don’t have to like him to acknowledge he did a good job running the country. Honestly kicking him off Facebook and Twitter probably helped him because the majority of voters didn’t go to truth social to follow him. The constant tweets were not always helpful.
I’ll vote for him in 2024 too but I don’t think he can win. He and his marry band of only Trumpers are going to run off more votes with their mouths.
So his endorsement in 2020 doesn’t mean anything?
RDS is garbage and will never get my or my family’s vote. He doesn’t deserve it.
They get lightheaded from the smoke coming off all the candles on their shrines.
Oh my, another whine because someone didn’t go full-on attack in defense of their savior?
Pretty lame.
“He didn’t say I was innocent so he is bad!”
This is exactly like the liberal statement, “silence is violence”. You’re guilty if you don’t go all in in all ways.
“Childlike obsession” comes to mind.
You guys hijack DeSantis threads, and then accuse others of hijacking Trump threads, hypocrite.
It’s been tiresome for the last year at least.
It's actually pretty bad.
And Trump is being selectively prosecuted. But that is a political issue that has to be dealt with, not a legal defense
That’s because he is a tool that wants dill the void
Funny but Trump just trying to help DeSnake out...little did he know as Trump said several times...Wow wasn’t expecting this for my help! DeSantis crawled in methodically and now celebrates he may win the prez nomination as Trump faces the Biggest travesty of injustice! Many may call DeSantis ‘meatballs” I call him Slime Ball along with backstabbing Pence,the worst of the two,if I had to choose!
Trump acts like a bombastic ass and y’all expect fealty to the Don.
We’re loyal to Trump because he’s been loyal to us. I would expect anyone who agrees with Trump’s ant-globalist, anti-deep-state, pro-American agenda to be loyal to him. I would expect anyone who doesn’t care about those things to focus on his personality.
I haven’t. Yawn.
It’s never good if it’s possible to stick anything on you, even if it’s just Post-It sticky.
