Ron DeSantis Says Endorsements Shouldn’t Be Criticized; Campaign Promptly Complains of AFP Backing Haley
Breitbart ^ | 28 Nov 2023 | NICK GILBERTSON

Posted on 11/28/2023 2:04:27 PM PST by conservative98

Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) said Monday night that candidates do not “always have to lash out” and levy attacks when a rival receives an endorsement, but his campaign did exactly that hours later on Tuesday morning.

When news broke that Koch-backed Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP), which reportedly plans to spend millions of dollars in the GOP primary, endorsed former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) for president on Tuesday morning, the DeSantis campaign issued a press release rife with sarcasm that was critical of Haley, former President Donald Trump, and the AFP.

Congratulations to Donald Trump on securing the Koch endorsement. Like clockwork, the pro-open borders, pro-jail break bill establishment is lining up behind a moderate who has no mathematical pathway of defeating the former president,” DeSantis campaign Communications Director Andrew Romeo said.

“Every dollar spent on Nikki Haley’s candidacy should be reported as an in-kind to the Trump campaign. No one has a stronger record of beating the establishment than Ron DeSantis, and this time will be no different,’ he added.

Ron didn’t beat the establishment. He joined them. Only problem is he sucks as a candidate and now they are wasting their money on ole Nikki the Neocon instead.

What’s confusing is that ANY of the Trump opponents think they have a prayer of becoming President. The best they’ll do, if Trump is jailed (or worse), is be the nominee in an election that will likely be the biggest BLOWOUT in US history, as very few Trump supporters, meaning very few Republicans, will vote for the Republican.

So, if they’re running to cement a Democrat (i.e., Fascist) overthrow of the country, then it makes sense what they’re doing. If not, they need to go to Political Science Grade School as they are TOTALLY CLUELESS regarding what they’re wishing for.

But, again and regardless, they will NEVER make it to the White House.

Campaign cash-starved politicians are the bane of honest government. Trump is the only one whose political livelihood doesn’t live or die on donor influence.

I remember when Meatball called a state of emergency and then flew to Dallas Texas to stuff his pockets full of money

If Haley is the nominee, she’ll be lucky to get 55 million votes.

If DeSantis is the nominee he’ll be lucky to get 65 million votes.

When Trump becomes the nominee his floor is 77 million votes and his ceiling is 80+ million votes.

Yeah, lets nominate a nobody that can’t win, because conservatives that live in urban areas and foreign countries have “delicate ears” and can’t “take the heat” from their liberal buddies.(sarcasm)
