DeSantis says Maine Trump decision ‘opens up Pandora’s box’

“The idea that one bureaucrat in an executive position can simply unilaterally disqualify someone from office, that turns on its head every notion of constitutional due process that this country has always abided by for over 200 years,”

“I don’t think that this ultimately will be legally sustained by the US Supreme Court. But I do think that this is going to be a constant throughout the election year, where there’s going to be different parts of these legal cases that are going to be front and center,” DeSantis said.

You desantis supporting nevertrumpers seem to put desanctimonious on a pedestile, but can't ever seem to defend his actions.... Even something as simple as why desantis, a harvard lawyer, doesn't know the constitution.

I listened to a podcast of the Ben Shapiro show last night. Trump may have gotten himself into a real mess. He has admitted on tape he had classified documents he failed to declassify.

Amazingly he made the brainless statement on a recorded meeting with some sort of women group. Shapiro thinks, as I feel, that Trump is not being willfully criminal just careless.

My opinion is the DOJ is corrupt and biased to the Democratic Party and that Trump is innocent of any real crimes, at least compared to say HRC. However does that make a difference to the Dems prosecuting him? NO.

Anyone can listen for themselves right here,,, between the 46 min and 50 min time stamps:

What i haven’t figured out yet is what value these imbeciles that keep promoting this nonsense think they have to gain.

It's all about spreading lies to the uninformed and breaking POTUS45 financially.

Word from Florida to Maine.

It's like a tsunami warning, or something. 😲

The Maine bimbette already stayed her own ruling pending a Maine Superior Court ruling. Nothing has changed except today’s headlines and news cycle.

I would guess you fall into the “just plain stupid” category, as evidenced by your use of a Simpson character in your illustration. You do realize the Simpson’s were written at about a 6th grade level of comprehension, right?

But even their base (ie the ignorant and broken) are not buying what the MSM are selling any longer. Its clear. Whether its the economy, Ukraine, the border and even Trump…. The “news” is forcing folks to look for other means to support the lies theyre being told and they arent finding it. In essence , the medias 24/7 gaslighting is counterproductive to their mission, as you stated it…. The fake news is not actually spreading misinformation ,its being extinguished by the media itself, but the medias hubris does not allow for them to see it. Its pretty amazing to watch.

“insurrection = vaccine”

Two words we just allow in the context of a narrative. Neither are true.

>>”Governor DeSantis proves himself to be articulate and well reasoned in his analysis of the Democrat attack on free elections”

That was analysis? He merely repeated what the rest of us have been saying on the subject, then sought to gain political advantage from the “bad news”.

DeSantis wants to pretend election integrity matters to him while hoping the left will succeed in preventing Trump from running. His whole campaign strategy is based on that outcome. If you genuinely believe DeSantis cares about election integrity then you are easily fooled.

“J6 insurrection is the unsold Big Lie. Only a lunatic believes that J6 was an insurrection.”

Actually, J6 was an inflection point for an ongoing insurrection... by the Deep State.

The wrong people are in jail.
