desanctimonious is still campaigning with his daily attempts at media face time press conferences....

But desantis has shown what a lying, manipulative, corrupt, unlikable swamp rino uniparty puppet he is, and he's got little support except from nevertrumping supporters now.

Can’t you find a Dem to pick on. Ron is good for Florida...you think he’s not good for this world. Get over it.

Look, I was always going to vote for Trump in the NH Primary, but I was shocked at what a bad candidate RDS was.

He needs to go to candidate school if he wants to do a national race again.

If I had to make a bet, it won’t be the last we hear of DeSantis.

He’s young, is a good governor, Republican talent is slim, and he’ll have plenty of time to recover from his first *political defeat.

*I don’t recall DeSantis ever losing an election, but haven’t checked out his election history.

We already know what he’s good for. Not keeping his word to the people who elected him, using the State Legislature to benefit himself politically, and monetarily, and then finally crawling back to Florida to do the job he took an oath to do all along.

” The main event Saturday evening featured DeSantis speaking with Reps. Chip Roy, R-Texas, and Thomas Massie, R-Ky., “


They can’t wait to bring back the GOPe. So they can once again be credible by contrast as the “true conservatives”.

As long as Trump is there, they look like the fakes they are compared to a real conservative nationalist.

These sorts of antics by the supposed “Right” of the Regime conservatives is not unique to the United States.

I see the same tactics by the right of the Conservative Party in the UK, in Australia, and in Canada.

Its purpose is to cut off any real conservative nationalist populists.

If DeSantis is not ready to ENFORCE STATE SOVEREIGNTY and TAKE DOWN MOST of the unconstitutional fed gov’t he’s NOT the guy for 2028...

It will just be back to corrupt DC politics as usual and good-bye America.

Trump is the best. DeSantis is next best.

He needs to repair his image nationally,” said one of the attendees.

He sure does. Trump could help with that if the time comes. My opinion is that he got horrible advice and allowed himself to believe he was ready and could make himself more popular than Trump.

Again, a lot of damage to be repaired, but he has been a good governor that has not shied away from conflict with the hard Left.

He’s in for 2028. Good for him. I love that you don’t like it. We don’t want liberals like you voting for him anyway.

One attendee said... “Some on the Trump side quietly say DeSantis is not doing enough, but Florida is a Republican state that Trump will win. What more can they want?”

The person said that there is likely not going to be a moment when DeSantis is any sort of surrogate or prominent voice helping Trump...”


Sorry, but this is BS. ND is also a Republican state and the governor won by 40 points. Doug Burgum seems to know how to come together and campaign for Trump. I wanted to give DeSantis a chance again, but he is being his old ungrateful backstabbing weaselly self again. People will remember this in 2028.

This has nothing to do with RINO, uniparty, or any the pet names Trump ad libbed. In general, presidential nominees unify the party by picking the runner-up as VP. JFK did in 1960, Reagan did it in 1980. And these were men of vastly superior political gifts.

Trump has chosen the path of the spoiled, overgrown toddler that he is. His message to the also-rans? Kiss my ring. While the election looks like a lock for him, if he does lose, it will be his sore winner antics that ultimately doomed his comeback.

I liked Ron DeSantis’ record as governor and would have been behind him all the way had Trump not decided to run. However, after seeing him as a campaigner, he seems to leave a lot to be desired (much like Scott Walker). Perhaps, it is a blessing that his deficiencies as a campaigner are revealed now. DeSantis can correct them or the Republicans can look in another direction in 2028. 2028 is a long ways away in political time but right now Rand Paul is my favorite to follow Trump into the White House.

The poser became a backstabber. So arrogant he thought he'd run against Trump and win. Thought he was big stuff. Even with insider money Trump KO'd DeSantos in the first round. Now he spends his days flailing his arms for attention. Like the squatter deal..."I know, I'll make it a crime to take over and steal private property". Brilliant.

What about RV's? Will there be a law against squatting and taking over someone's RV? How about a law stopping people from building treehouses in your trees? Lots of press! Gak~

The simple concept of trespassing has these people baffled. Yet another career lawyer turned lifer politician.

Are you a closet Democrat? The primaries are over. We've united behind our candidate, Donald Trump. Why don't we talk about the Democrats instead?

I would never vote for DeSantis or Ted Cruz for President. They both showed their unworthiness for the Presidency.
