“What the left and the media and the Democrats are doing — they’re doing all this stuff, to basically solidify support in the primary for him, get him into the general, and the whole general election is going to be all this legal stuff,” DeSantis said Wednesday, speaking at the Westside Conservative Club Breakfast in Iowa.

“What they don’t want is to have somebody like me, who will make the election not about all those other issues, but it’ll make the election about the failures of Biden, the failures of the left and how we’re going to be able to turn the country around,” he continued.

Actually, it’s the only motive that makes any sense at all.

Is he serious, is he pulling my leg..so the left is trying to HELP Trump by doing this..is he smoking what Hunter is smoking

Solid Trumper here, however Vivek has it absolutely correct- pull out of CO, and so should deSwamptis, fat boy, nikky, etc.

The chair of the CO GOP also has it right - pull out of CO as a party, and plan for a caucus, where CO scotus has no reach.

Democrat appointed judges helping Trump? I don’t think so!

[Reno89519]

That is a cogent argument. Consider the ruling is stayed, so it has the media value, but no application. And all of the other court cases have more media value than actual physical results as well. The end result is that the news and everyone is focused 24/7 on Trump. Candidate, regardless of who can compete.

[Reno89519]

While they are helping Trump, in the short term, they’re helping the Democrats in the long-term. They absolutely want to run against Trump, and if you look around in the news, among the general Republican and independent voter, at least 25% won’t vote for Trump if he is convicted, which means he cannot win the election, regardless of who is competing against

I dislike Ronnie more and more each day!

[SkyDancer]

Right - Democrat liberals knowingly helping Trump.

“Actually, it’s the only motive that makes any sense at all.”

Leftists that I know often do things just for hate’s sake, things that make no other sense at all. Nursing hatred is their greatest joy.

Some of Colo. justices are strange; Marquez is a lesbian married to a Sheila for 25 years.

DeSantis is wrong. The ruling will solidify support for Trump, but the left is trying to take him out not solidify support.

[McGavin999]

Good grief, get a clue Ron. Nobody want you!

Somebody’s been nippin’ the Miracle-Gro again.

[Tell It Right]

DeSantis: It’s not fair that the Dims are trying to take Trump off the ballot and lawfare him into bankruptcy. They should come after me too!

[MDLION]

It’s not a stunt. Liberals are veiled Communists and they want him off the ballot.

[wild74]

DeSantis is on top of things he knows this is a a rouse and that the SCOTUS will overturn the dimwit judges

[escapefromboston]

That’s a bit of a stretch
Though I wonder if Trump raised any money off this ruling ?

[ConservativeMind]

DeSantis admitting 87 Dimension chess is being played…

[so_real]

Though I have complete confidence that WAS NOT the intention of the kangaroo court ruling ... I do believe that is the effect it is having. Write Trump's name in, Colorado. Do it!
