To all our detractors:

We have all been insulted enough.
We are the only ones defending the Great American Way of Life from the woke Commies who would enslave us.

Lay off with the insults.

Guarantee he’s regurgitating what the consultants/bosses are telling him to say.

Ron, grab a dictionary if you are going to try to insult us.

Listless: having or showing little or no interest in anything; languid; spiritless; indifferent

Maybe rabid, frenzied, populist even irrationally loyal. But certainly not listless. No one is saying "(sigh) well, I guess I'll vote for Trump if I'm not getting my earwax rotated on election day".

Even "deplorable " made more sense because Hillary and the Democrats did deplore us.

He doesn’t care if he wins. None of the conservative candidates do. They are getting paid under the table to help make sure Trump does not win.

Here you go again! And here I go again!

What I posted on a very similar thread.
https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4176254/posts?page=60#60

“ Whoa there Freepers! Listen to the entire response! DeSantis does a pretty good job if not excellent.

Listen to entire response and tell me where this listless phrase is.

Frankly, DeSantis had a good and in-depth response. If I were the Dems I’d be sticking it to DeSantis not Trump.”

I love Trump, period. I am not some over sensitive female who feels slighted every time someone hurts my little ol’ feelings. I have no idea what your excuse is for your massive overreaction.

This “listless” phrase took less than two seconds out of a 2+ minute response where DeSantis made some excellent points. Give the guy some credit. Now check you little hurt feelings at the door and man up. It’s a tough world out there! If you can’t handle this, you can’t handle much.

Trump supporters are about as "listless" as the Beatlemaniacs of the mid-sixties. In October, 2020, huge crowds lined the streets of Newport Beach, Calif. to see Trump's limousine go by (I was there). This was not a parade; Trump was in the Southland to visit a friend. Yet tens of thousands showed up just to see him go by. This sort of thing happens with rock stars, but never politicians.

You can cry to the Moderator like the Meatball supporter you are.
No one forces you to read every posted article.

Hope DeSantis isn’t now imitating Trump — the grand master of name calling and personal attacks. Why can’t they just get together and publicly vow to stop this BS?

Using one his last moments in the spotlight to insult Trump supporters. Goodbye, Ron.

““Ultimately, a movement can’t be about the personality of one individual.”

A movement can but a good choice for our representatives in government can’t.

A listless vessel is always capable of picking up the fresh wind and sailing off with a new captain.

But not with a Pegleg. Greasy. Moptheflooronhisknees. Meatball. RINO. Halfwit. With. A. Harpie. Wife.

You Ronlims go screw yourselves into the ground. You thought it wasn't personal before? Your posting histories are mine.

What are you talking about crybaby, are you whining about a different point of view?
