The screenshot that Trump reshared on Truth Social.Posted on 01/31/2023 8:34:10 AM PST by SoConPubbie
President Trump took a shot at Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) in a Sunday statement posted to Truth Social, touting his superiority in the polls and railing on DeSantis for his policies during the Covid pandemic.
“The revelations about Ron DeSanctimonious doing FAR WORSE than many other Republican governors, including that he unapologetically shut down Florida and its beaches, was interesting, indeed,” Trump wrote. “DJT leading BIG!!!”
The president also shared a picture from another Truth user on Monday that included screenshots of headlines written in 2020, comparing his Covid pandemic policy against Gov. DeSantis’s. “Remember this?” Trump commented. “Some Republican states got it right, Florida got it wrong!”
The screenshot that Trump reshared on Truth Social.Trump’s remarks come after a busy weekend for the 45th president as he kicked off his 2024 presidential campaign on Saturday in Salem, New Hampshire, with a keynote address to the New Hampshire Republican State Committee. He also spoke at the South Carolina State House on Saturday afternoon, unveiling his leadership team in the Palmetto State.
“The Fake News Media was good yesterday in their coverage of my stops in New Hampshire and South Carolina,” Trump said on Truth Social. “Other than The Globalist Street Journal, which is rarely accurate or good, they said the day was really ‘amazing.’ The enthusiasm to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN has never been stronger.”
Trump has dominated primary presidential polling over the last few weeks, eclipsing Gov. DeSantis by double-digit margins among primary Republican voters. As reported by RSBN, a new poll from Premise found that 59 percent of Republicans preferred Trump as the Republican nominee in 2024, compared to only 24 percent who preferred DeSantis.
Trump also emerged the victor in the eyes of the American voters in a new Emerson College poll, which revealed that he had garnered 55 percent of support for the nomination, while Gov. DeSantis had accrued 29 percent.
President Trump told reporters onboard Trump Force One over the weekend that he would consider a presidential bid from DeSantis as a sign of disloyalty.
Trump stated, “He would have not been governor if it wasn’t for me – and that’s okay. Number one, he wouldn’t have gotten the nomination, and number two, he wouldn’t have beaten his Democrat opponent. So, then, when I hear he might run, you know, I consider that very disloyal.”
Lindsey is nobody, and he’s certainly not running for president. No?
Did Trump say he wanted to be like Paul Ryan?
DeSantis is on video saying just that.
Whoops!
Don’t get me wrong. I think DeSantis works good for Florida. But he’s not ready for prime time, maybe after Trump and tens of millions of voters get back what was stolen from us.
How old is that? Does Trump really want to go down memory lane, and some of the things he’s said?
Hillary is terrific! Bill was a great President!

The age is irrelevant. It’s what was said.
Why would Ron want to be like Paul Ryan?
It looked to me like he was talking about climbing the ladder to achieve the same level of recognition as Ryan, such as being Speaker, VP candidate, etc, nothing about policy.
But, speaking of policy, why did Trump say Bill Clinton was such a great President?
Why do you think Jeb Bush and that crowd are praising DeSantis? Could it be this is yet another attempt to get rid of outsider Trump?
People always say that social polite crap in campaign settings. But did Trump ever say he wanted to be like Bill or Hillary? No he didn’t.
I just can’t figure out why DeSantis wants to be like Paul Ryan!
Would you like to see a video of what Trump really thinks of Hillary?
Obviously, duh. They have no real allegiance to DeSantis. It’s like your favorite team is the Broncos, and you just don’t like the Chiefs or Patrick Mahomes, mainly because he whips you normally in your division. So who you gonna root for in the Super Bowl, between the Chiefs and the Eagles, since your Broncos are way out of it? The Eagles, as I said, obviously.
So you admit the insiders are using yet another insider to get rid of Trump the outsider. lol...
I didn’t ask you about Hilary, I asked you why did Trump say Bill Clinton was such a great President, since you want to go down memory lane tonight.
Btw, I don’t watch football. Those people could urinate on the American flag on the 50 yard line at half time, and their preoccupied cup drooling fans would cheer it on.
F Desantis. If he would MAKE IT CLEAR he wasn’t running in ‘24 all of this would stop.
I told ya. That’s politics. He didn’t say he wanted to be like Bill Clinton did he?
You want to see the video of what Trump really thinks of the Clintons?
If he can play games, we all can!
Leave Desantis alone!!!!
He’s running for President.
Which POTUS was as successful as Trump? Look at what Trump accomplished:
Who the heck can accomplish the above in four years while being impeached twice and investigated by Obama's Weaponized Agencies?
I am losing all respect for TDS squishes.
