'Total radio silence': Trump's MAGA inner circle are furious at DeSantis and Nikki Haley for failing to back Trump and claim both GOP rivals are making a 'massive mistake'

Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley have been attacked by a number of Trump loyalists for failing to comment on rumors the former president will be arrested on Tuesday.
MAGA Republicans have criticized DeSantis and Haley for not speaking out against the Manhattan DA's office for what they claim is a weaponization of the justice system.
DeSantis is widely rumored to be preparing to run against Trump for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. Haley was the first to enter the race after Trump.
Jason Miller, a Trump adviser and the former CEO of right-wing free speech app Gettr noted a 'radio silence' from the two since the rumors gained momentum early on Saturday.

Heightening pressure on DeSantis was that he is the governor of Florida, the state Trump has made his home since leaving office.
Far-right social media personality Mike Cernovich suggested the governor should make it clear he would not extradite Trump from Florida without a 'proper legal review'.
'DeSantis is making his first unforced error by not denouncing this lawless act,' he said. One Twitter user pointed out that Trump had suggested that in his original Truth Social that he would be turning himself in, and that it was not an extradition case.
Ben Kew, editor-at-large of conservative news site Red State, wrote in response: 'I say this as his most fervent supporter, but Ron DeSantis is making a massive mistake by not speaking up on the Trump prosecution issue.'

They are simply doing what Trump did for the J6 protestors for the last two years.
nothing.
To: ryderann
Exactly. My guess is Trump had already made a few phone calls to top Gop leaders. Including Nikki and Ron. Others. Seeing how this plays out.

Just who does RdS think he’s playing to by shooting himself in the foot like this? This has nothing to do about the campaign. This is basic equal justice before the law. RdS is going to take a powder on this for political reasons? That’s pretty close to being as egregious as what this NYC Soros goon is doing. This could well be a career ending muff.

There is no charge, so no need to comment. This is just an effort to trash an ineligible candidate Haley and a potential candidate DeSantis. Besides, does everyone have to offer a comment?

What teammate?
DeSantis has been silent about Trump’s possible indictment.
That’s not what most MAGA voters want as a teammate.
Who is advising DeSantis? Karl Rove?

Go away troll. You have been told, and you know why DeSantis is not rising to take this bait from Trump.

We didn’t need this silence to know what these two are up to.
They have telegraphed their allegiance to the enemy.

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.

Santis condemns the arrest. It turns out to be one of trump’s usual nothingburger tweets and nothing happens.
Trump camp: LOL Trump playing 22D chess and played DeSantis like a fiddle LOLZ.
Independents: This guy lets Trump wind him up? Why should I vote for him when I’m already not going to vote for Trump?

That’s funny. Trump calls them names to draw attention to their moves. The horse came before the cart.

IF DeSantis allows an extradition, he’ll never be elected again to any office.
That’s as certain as the day is long.

The silence when FJB put a gun to my head to try to force me to take Operation Warped Clot Jab, was deafening.
I’ll vote against FJB even if his opponent is in jail, so I don’t care.
