Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida said that claims about the 2020 election being stolen were false, directly contradicting a central argument of former President Donald J. Trump and his supporters.
The comments went further than Mr. DeSantis typically goes when asked about Mr. Trump’s defeat. The governor has often tried to hedge, refusing to acknowledge that the election was fairly conducted. In his response on Friday, Mr. DeSantis did not mention Mr. Trump by name — saying merely that such theories were “unsubstantiated.” But the implication was clear.
“All those theories that were put out did not prove to be true,” Mr. DeSantis said in response to a reporter’s question after a campaign event at a brewery in Northeast Iowa.

Biden had the most votes of any candidate in history!
hahaha!
In what alternate universe were these theories “proven not to be true?”
I find the theories of election fraud very believable, it fits the known facts better than any alternative. I don’t think anyone could point to any proof the theories are not true. A million progressives saying they are not true means nothing, the grasp of truth or reality among progressives is clearly missing to a massive extent. At least that’s my theory, perhaps they just lie for fun.
Stick a fork in him....
DeSantis was never going to be Trump’s friend. He used Trump to get his Governorship the first time then turned around and stabbed Trump in the back.
“Trump alienates his conservative allies because he considers them rivals while he should consider them supporters.”
When your ‘supporters’ run against you, I think he has a right to consider them rivals.
Why ?
Trump ran a terrible 2020 campaign and had his Son in Law Jared in charge and that incompetent crook Ronna Romney destroyed the RNC get out the vote campaign .
Jared had no experience in that field.
Trump had no campaign ads running ever and did not even spend all his campaign money at the end .Why ? The rules he Created for Covid killed his
sorry campaign .
The NIH Dems he put in charge of the WH killed millions of jobs and business and millions had there loves die alone .
Mail in ballots were flooding in all the Dem states .
everywhere thanks to Trump Evil Covid laws .
He set himself up .
Trump was manipulated through his own germophobic fears into making a lot of bad decisions in the 2020 run up.
The first rule of reading any statement from The New York Times or any MSM/CIA/FBI news source is to assume that it is a lie unless shown otherwise.
Sorry, DeSantis. I will never support anybody who denies that the 2020 Election was Stolen. NEVER.
The Next Generation of GOP leadership are committing political suicide.
Trump lost the election by 43,000 votes, spread across three states.
How many ineligible Democrats voted in those three states?
Unknown.
How many Democrat ballots in those three states had no verifiable chain of custody?
Unknown.
I cannot prove that Donald Trump won the 2020 election.
But, no one in the entire world can prove that Donald Trump lost the 2020 election.
President Trump didn’t lose the 2020 election, numb-nuts.
Trump has divided the Gop and we will lose big including the WH and the House and Senate too if
Trump is the nominee .
I want that evil Biden gone.
He doesn’t want the US presidency and this proves it. Hey should just as well move over to the dems side.
You have to wonder if Pence and DeSantis have decided that they are not going to win the Primary, and have now moved on to all out support and PR for the deep state democrats.
They have become enablers for the democrats cheating and stealing elections and their lawfare against political opponents.
And now he says as I suspected all along, that he does think Biden won the election.
Ron will never drain the swamp because he doesn't believe that they cheat to win.
Yes he did .
Are you in third grade ?
Trump ran a awful campaign .
He killed the country . Millions out of work or lost there business
or banned from seeing there elderly parents .
He put two Dems from the NIH in charge of the country .
He put clueless Jared and Ivanka in charge of his campaign .
No experience. They got crushed .
No ads . No door knocking.
No get out the vote thanks to his brilliant pick Ronna Romney an Incompetent Crook .
Trump does not talk to Jared anymore .
Obama ran Bidens campaign. They knew how get out the vote .
Covid helped the Dems in many ways .
The DeTitanic has hit an iceberg more cold than Meatball’s personality and it is going down as you keep fiddlin’ while it sinks.
The dullard Captain RDS is going down with the ship[.
Give it up. People don’t like Desantis as you should be able to see by now.
I dunno. I cannot yet make sense of what he is doing.
