Gov. Ron DeSantis may believe Tuesday night’s re-election was a “win for the ages,” but former President Donald Trump isn’t sold.
Trump took to Truth Social to diminish DeSantis’ accomplishment Wednesday.
“Now that the Election in Florida is over, and everything went quite well, shouldn’t it be said that in 2020, I got 1.1 Million more votes in Florida than Ron D got this year, 5.7 Million to 4.6 Million? Just asking?”

“if Trump leaves the scene, MAGA will die off”
I disagree—President Trump’s greatest accomplishment was to create the MAGA movement, and at this point it is reaching adult-hood and is strong enough to carry on its own.
We will evaluate every Republican by their deeds and not by their words—that is the lesson and it is not forgotten by anyone.
I love Trump.
HOWEVER, he is becoming insufferable. At this point he is the ONE candidate the Democrats are praying for.
Do we really think talking about what happened in 2020 wins for us in 2024?
Trump, he just can’t help himself, will be sucked into talking about the past. It will allow Democrats off the hook.
Thanks for everything DJT. Please step aside and help.
Trump is behaving like a 3-year old sent to bed early...
Trump has great policies, but he sounds like little Lord Fontleroy.
As much as I like The Don, the Ron would be a better choice for 2024. He handles the legacy media better and is more humorous in a non-confrontational way. With electronic-only voting, I doubt either will beat Brandon.
The elites and DeSantis don’t own trump. DeSantis’ mega donors don’t own trump. Trump doesn’t have megadonors. He owes no megadonors he owes no media.
He doesn’t care. DeSantis has somehow declared being on a side not compatible with trumps.
This is the result
Best man win.
It seems
Trump just needs to STFU. Really-really.
I get that he is a clinical narcist, he’s from NY after all.
I hate to say it, but I think he was more a hinderance than a help in this mid-term. He sure as hell did not make any friends in AK.
He **talked** a lot (mostly about Donny T) - I didn’t see him put any $$$ down to help any candidates - did I miss this???
Nope, the GOPe, the RINO’s want to kill MAGA off.
Just had a thought...maybe Trump is TRYING to drive people away from himself and toward DiSantis. A bit of reverse psychology.
Sometimes it’s better to say nothing...
The DOJ and Trump are in a race. That’s what’s happening.
Of course our enemies want to destroy us.
It is our job to make sure they don’t succeed.
That is not the job of one man.
That is our job.
This is Trump’s weakness.
Sure seems that way, don't it.
Envision an old guy ranting about how well he threw the ball when he was captain of the team.
Trump is that old guy.
Don’t vote for anyone over 70.
Grassley is going to be in his 90s. That’s just absurd.
>>Trump needs to STFU
Agreed
What to do if DeSantis is being offered a billion chinese $$ and life for him and his family just to go “Never Trump”?
Or he is playing coy to out all the never Trump types…
Only if Trump chooses not to run, and DeSantis vows to go scorched earth on
the 2020 election thieves is this even remotely OK.
Trump sucks, he should be jailed!
“ “DeSantis’s best play is to simply have no comment.”
No, his best policy is to come forward and explain why he is taking in so much Wall Street money from donors who hate MAGA and what he intends to do with it.
Or, will he go to Georgia and campaign for Walker.
Or will he ever condemn specifically, in no uncertain terms, that Trump was attacked, as it were, on the raid at his home.”
Ok but then how will he be able to continue to play the victim in his passive aggressive anti Trump game?
“Trump’s not letting up on DeSantis.”
Why should he?
DeSantis is sitting on a mountain of unspent cash and getting ready to run for President in 2024. He’s also being extremely coy about his future intentions & ambition.
That makes DeSantis a rival, not a ‘buddy.’
