Donald Trump: Ron DeSantis ‘Hurting Himself Very Badly for 2028’
Breitbart ^ | HANNAH BLEAU

Posted on 07/05/2023 12:17:22 PM PDT by SoConPubbie

Former President Donald Trump believes Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is hurting any potential 2028 presidential prospects, criticizing the presidential hopeful following the governor’s recent appearance in New Hampshire.

“Ron DeSanctimonious is getting absolutely ‘demolished’ for yesterday’s performance in New Hampshire,” Trump stated in a Truth Social post.

“No crowds, no enthusiasm, no interest. His Campaign is in total disarray. He’s hurting himself very badly for 2028. See, loyalty does matter with Patriots!” Trump exclaimed.

Trump’s criticism follows DeSantis and his family spending the Fourth of July in New Hampshire, marching in the Fourth of July parades in both Wolfeboro and Merrimack, alongside his family.

The DeSantis campaign, of course, had a very different take, asserting that “enthusiasm was high” despite the rainy day.

Meanwhile, Trump has received criticism from the establishment media and rivals for not campaigning in the same manner on Independence Day. Trump 2024 campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung, however, asserted that Trump did, in fact, participate in Independence Day weekend, particularly with his massive rally held in South Carolina on Saturday, which reportedly drew an estimated 50,000 people.

“His campaign will have an overwhelming presence in various parades and patriotic events in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina, engaging with voters and Americans who are sick of Joe Biden’s failed leadership,” Cheung told the New York Times.

Despite the efforts of his rivals, Trump is continuing to dominate in national and state-level polls, including the early primary state of New Hampshire. A recent Anselm College Survey Center poll found Trump with a 28-point lead in the state.

Stay the course, RDS, don't be bullied.

RDS can actually WIN the general election, that's what's important to the future of our Republic.

DeSantis shouldn’t be running.

DeSantis has doomed himself for 2028. Maybe he could run for Congress in Florida but his prospects as a national candidate are done.

Apparently, he doesn’t appear to be.

Trump is 100% correct and the media, deep state, and democrats are all gleefully helping Ron destroy his chances in 2028.

Sure was easy for the deep state to create a candidate and then convince some of us to follow him.

Reality check is the Trump should drop out for the good of the country, if he were to secure the Republican nomination, he would not win the national election. Consider all the bad mouthing, disloyalty with his former staff, he’s done nothing to enlarge his base. All of his actions have lost him voters in the big picture. He can’t win and the sooner that he and Republicans recognize it, the better.

Note to Trump: Concentrate on where you are going...not where you have been.
If he gets in, he will AGAIN discover that much of the GOP leadership hates him.
Now is the time to start looking for help you can trust and NOT family members.

Keep deluding yourself.

Desantis has been underperforming Trump vs Biden for a long time now...

Morning Consult tracking shows Desantis losing to Biden, and Trump winning v Biden and has for weeks now.

This narrative that DeSantis may have been true back during January Polling, but it hasn’t been that way since Feb.

Read RCP polls. Biden defeats DeSantis in all polls.
Trump wins over Biden in post polls.

But your OPINION is of course better than RCP averages. You are a political genius. RCP simply reports polls.

The Democrats do this every time. If he doesn’t see their game he shouldn’t ever be in DC again.

Trump is hurting himself, the Republican Party, and the USA with his nasty-bully behavior. I continue to believe that someone other than Trump will be elected President in November 2024, and I hope that our Republic will somehow continue to survive and prosper.

Remember when Trump lost the 2020 election as an incumbent?

That was awesome.

Let’s nominate someone who knows how to combat voter fraud. You know, like DeSantis.

DeSantis should have stayed out, continued to do good things in Florida and been a VP candidate.

He’s already been both a state and federal representative.

Uh Dude, the man got at least 74 million votes in 2020. More than anyone in history. He is on track to get more in 2023 now that all the scams perpetrated against both him and the American people are coming to light.
