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.

This DeSantis guy is a strange ranger indeed though.

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.

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?

““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.

Except that’s not what DeSantis said, though I think it’s quite telling that that’s what Trump and his supporters heard. Trump is never one to let an opportunity to play the victim go by.

How else to say, “Hey, I went to Yale” without actually saying, “Hey, I went to Yale”?

Mission accomplished. Heck of a job.

This “Listless Vessel” will happily help reelect Trump.

“We have a strand in our party that views supporting Trump as whether you are a RINO or not. And so you could be the most conservative person since sliced bread. Unless you’re kissing his rear end, they will somehow call you a RINO,” DeSantis said. “Ultimately, a movement can’t be about the personality of one individual.” He then targeted Trump supporters directly, telling the outlet, “Because if you’re not rooted in principle, if all we are is listless vessels that are just supposed to follow, whatever happens, to come down the pike on Truth Social every morning, that’s not going to be a durable movement.”

That's not incorrect per se, but DeSantis' narrative since entering the race was that Trump didn't have that good of a record. So that throws the argument to the wolves that we need a candidate to carry on Trump's policies without the Trump drama. If it wasn't good, what would be the point of that? It also lets Joe Biden off the hook...also not a winning message for the general..."well, DeSantis, you yourself said Trump's policies weren't good, so all of the problems we are having are just Trump's mess I'm cleaning up."

He should be so lucky to have supporters like Trump does. Apparently he can’t seem to apealto us. He doesn’t have the balls necessary to act on behalf of Trump voters. He couldn’t even win his first race withouþ Trump. Backstabbing liar.
