‘Stand Up or Step Aside’: Republican Presidential Candidate Calls on Governor DeSantis to Take Action Following News of Potential Trump Indictment

As previously reported by the DC Enquirer, five senior officials told NBC News that law enforcement agencies are conducting “preliminary security assessments” for the Manhattan Criminal Court in case Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) brings charges.
In response to this news, President Trump responded, saying that he will be “arrested” on Tuesday:
“Our nation is now third world and dying. The American dream is dead! The radical left anarchists have stolen our presidential election, and with it, the heart of our country. American patriots are being arrested and held in captivity like animals, while criminals and leftist thugs are allowed to roam the streets, killing and burning with no retribution. Millions are flooding through our open borders, many from prisons and mental institutions. Crime and inflation are destroying our very way of life. Now illegal leaks from a corrupt and highly political Manhattan district attorney’s office, which has allowed new records to be set in violence crime and whose leader is funded by George Soros indicate that, with no crime being able to be proven, and based on an old and fully debunked (by numerous other prosecutors!) fairytale, the far and away leading Republican candidate and former president of the United States of America, will be arrested on Tuesday of next week. Protest, take our nation back!”
In response to the news, as previously reported by the DC Enquirer, businessman and rival GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy came out to call for the Manhattan DA to not indict the 45th president.
‘IT REEKS OF… POLITICAL PROSECUTION’: VICE PRESIDENT MIKE PENCE REACTS TO POTENTIAL INDICTMENT OF FORMER BOSS
He explained that if the district attorney did go forward with an indictment of President Trump, it would be “the beginning of the end of the American experiment.”
With Vivek speaking out clearly about the issue, he called upon Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is widely expected to announce a run for the presidency, to voice his opinion, particularly since President Trump currently resides in the state of Florida.
“[T]he ruling party is now looking to use police power to lock up its biggest political rival,” he wrote in response to a tweet sent by the governor yesterday. “The [GOP] donor class favorites have been deafeningly silent about it. Stand up or step aside. Stop being fake.”
Governor DeSantis is the second most popular potential GOP candidate for president and the most popular governor in America. Given that Trump also resides in his state, the Floridan should immediately issue a statement on a potential indictment.
The American people respect Governor DeSantis’ opinion and want to hear what he has to say on this important issue. As of this report, Governor DeSantis has not made a statement on the matter.

DeSantis has zERO OBLIGATION to say ANYTHING.
He’s NOT RUNNING in ‘24.
He’s the Governor of Florida.
He can stay in his own lane, and that may be best.
This crap is all ginned up by the eGOP wall of voodoo trying to goad DeSantis into a bid for the white House in ‘24.
Nuh-uh.
Y’all take a cold shower, and change your BVD’s; it’ll be 2028 at the earliest.

Meanwhile Trump had years to comment about the mistreatment, injustice upon the J6 prisoners and didn’t say or do squat until March of this year now that he’s running for office again.
Weird, isn’t it?

It is good that people are starting to realize the deception in the world of politics, specifically republican politics, by watching what is not done, who does not speak, and what is not being said in the aftermath of a visible effort to indict President Trump by a politically motivated New York district attorney.
The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence; however, the silence tells you something very specific when it comes to politics. The corrupt and manipulative political system is designed to test opinion, that is what most professional politicians do before they take a position. In essence, the ones who wait are the ones who manipulate.
The politicians who wait to express opinions on substantive issues, are the ones who are comfortable operating in the world where manipulation is the tool, and authenticity is something they do not carry. In the biggest of big political pictures, this approach is what supports the maintenance of the professional political system.
Without manipulation as the primary agenda of focus, politicians do not need consultants, polling, managers or branding groups. However, when the creation of an artificial premise, the manipulation itself, is the baseline for the character of the principal, all of these systems are needed. This video by Vivek Ramaswamy has gained a lot of attention, because at the core of the purpose – he is correct. WATCH:
However, the issue extends well beyond individual politicians; the issue goes all the way through the political apparatus into the systems and institutions itself. This is one of the reasons why, when you fine-tune your discernment, you can predict “what systems” are carrying “what motives.”
Remember, CTH outlining the Republican Governors Association (RGA) as one of the manipulative political institutions that was different this time around, for the 2024 race? {Go Deep} It’s not just Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis that you should notice. Pay attention to the specific silence, positioning and wind-testing that is taking place from within that entire network of the Republican Governors Association. There’s the *tell* that indicates I was correct.
The good news is that President Trump can also see it. [LINK]

Why they wait….
The professional republicans follow the instructions of the professional republican control agents. Those control officers are waiting to see if the predictions do come true, and if President Trump is actually indicted. They want the opportunity for the dates to pass without action so they can use the absence of an indictment as a political tool to advance their narrative against Trump.
The publicity of the statements by Trump and the Mainstream Media, may actually influence the decision by Alvin Bragg and the New York City DA’s office. However, for the purposes of the RGA and the characters intent on controlling the 2024 GOP nomination, that aspect will be ignored in favor of driving a bigger wedge between Ron DeSantis and President Trump in the absence of an indictment.
DeSantis branding is all about these types of consultant advisors. This is why I said do not look for a statement from him. It’s the same reason why the DeSantis managers kept him in a bunker for five days after the Mar-a-Lago raid. This approach is all about manipulation and narrative creation.
World War Reddit and Ron DeSantis have something identical in common. It’s the same playbook, the creation of an illusion.
Once you see how much planning goes into these types of operations, then you begin to realize the scope of the financial interests that are involved. There are trillions at stake.

So you’re sure he never mentioned it before March if this year??
Have you not read his Truth feed??
Have you not listened to his rallies??

No one but some of his supporters have anything to do with truth social not listen to his rallies
I’m still a fan of DJT but reality is he really hasn’t done shit for the J6 prisoners especially considering what “he could have” done and to many of us it seems like he waited to see which way the winds were blowing before he said much
Look, this “prosecution” of him is egregious and absurd but expecting everyone to jump in (even the people he has attacked) and tip their hands before anything has actually happened is a request for ego validation and nothing more
To: SoConPubbie
Bullshit, complete and total
Now if and after something happens I’ll expect to hear something and it will factor into my support afterwards
To: Manuel OKelley
No one but some of his supporters have anything to do with truth social not listen to his rallies Truth Social has more than 2 million active users, and everything Trump posts on Truth is reposted on the entirety of other social media.. Millions watch his rallies. Video clips from his rallies are posted on Truth, Twitter, facebook, etc.
reality is he really hasn’t done shit for the J6 prisoners
Trump has been supporting J6 families financially. What are you doing personally?
expecting everyone to jump in (even the people he has attacked)
I see it as a chance to grab the news cycle and lead.

So many times he mentioned it at so many places yet you couldn’t manage to find any sources with statements he made.
How about actions? That’s louder than words.
Why hasn’t he visited them?
Why not have a presser outside of the prison they’re in??
He’s been to the Border as ex-President.

No.
I asked you three simple questions.
You didn’t answer any.
To: aMorePerfectUnion
Yes, 2 million and it’s basically an echo chamber
Thanks ve heard not seen anything about him supporting the J6 defendants and their families other than comment where he said he was-the people I know who have tried to help get legal aid to them have said they have not heard of any (that does NOT mean he hasn’t and I certainly hope he is helping)
Grabbing the news cycle and leading is never good when you don’t know all the facts and was in fact one of DJTs greatest flaws
I still think he was the best president in my lifetime, I think he was cheated in 2020, etc but this attacking any potential rival is not winning him any supporters
To: SoConPubbie
It’s all fake. Trump is in on it......
To: alstewartfan
That is why I support Ron. He is NOT childish, and the former great President is.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Oh yeah, and that is strong evidence that you’re thoughts and opinions are focused like a laser on the major threats to our country, and which man has demonstrated that he’s the candidate who’s most capable of dealing with those grave issues. NOT!

The double standards between treatment of democrat supporters and conservatives are glaring!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
True, and what’s even more glaring is the fact that our criminal justice system has been so severely damaged that defendants who have not been convicted of any crime are suffering abuses in prisons while they are being denied all legal representation to which they are entitled by law!
