Former President Donald Trump went scorched earth on Florida Governor Ron DeSantis after he weighed in on his potential indictment in the Stormy Daniels case brought by prosecutors in New York.
Trump, in a post on Truth Social, raised questions about DeSantis’s sexuality and once again peddled his groomer smear against the Florida Republican who is seen as a potential presidential candidate in 2024.
“Ron DeSanctimonious will probably find out about FALSE ACCUSATIONS & FAKE STORIES sometime in the future, as he gets older, wiser, and better known, when he’s unfairly and illegally attacked by a woman, even classmates that are “underage” (or possibly a man!),” Trump seethed. ‘I’m sure he will want to fight these misfits just like I do!”
Trump also included a picture from an article suggesting the worst about DeSantis’s conduct with “underage” young people.
Trump’s scorched earth remarks came hours after DeSantis made snide comments about the former president while addressing the possibility Trump will be indicted this week over the Stormy Daniels hush money scandal.
“I don’t know what goes into paying hush money to a porn star or to secure silence over some time of alleged affair. I just – I can’t speak to that,” DeSantis told reporters on Monday. “But what I can speak is that you have a prosecutor who is ignoring crimes happening every single day in his jurisdiction and he chooses to go back many, many years ago to try to use something about porn star hush money payments. You know, that’s an example of pursuing a political agenda.” **/

I used to like Trump - Not anymore. I am voting Desantis in the primary. Will vote for Trump against Biden but I no longer like him
Another example of the media telling you what someone said.
The train filled with tunnel-visioned, unhinged Trumpersonalities that are just as narrow-minded as the radical left is over absolute loyalty to their god. It’s just that their gods’ names differ. They just can’t get next to the concepts of logic, reason and unity.
DeSantis hasn’t been throwing out slanderous insults against Trump...yet still Trump rages as if DeSantis is the real enemy here, instead of the Marxist, radical left.
I’m about done and over the Trump Cult of Stupidity....
forever.
I think he is fighting his enemies. Apparently Democrats aren’t his enemies, conservatives.
IT WORKED!!!!!!!!
Not a single post regarding The Bidens!
Ta-Daaaaa!
Honey, where did I leave my shocked face?
“Trump is sounding desperate.”
Trump is sounding irate over the backstabbing from DeSantis.
The headline is a lie, Trump did not question DeSantis’s sexuality, but was warning of “FALSE ACCUSATIONS & FAKE STORIES” advising him on the type attacks he will undergo himself. The “man” attack has already been made and not by Trump.
Don’t be so emotional. Keep your eye on the ball.
This is not about Trump, it is about who gives us the best shot at getting out from under this communist assault.
Because FRiend, this one is for all the marbles.
“I bet he didn’t even do it.”
As in “Fake News”?
I agree...
Would you be pissed if Trump called you a pedophile and a bunch of other junk.
“ Well after tomorrow the debate may become academic.
Desantis might be the only one walking free.”

Really? Tomorrow starts in LESS THAN 3 HOURS. As of now THERE ARE NO “CHARGES”. NONE, ZERO, ZIP!
This is all much ado about nothing, IMHO. People are being HYSTERICAL about a NONEXISTENT indictment, NONEXISTENT charges and NONEXISTENT extradition attempts. Soros’ operative (Manhattan DA) Alvin Bragg is clearly shooting blanks with his possibly non-cooperating grand jury.
I made YET ANOTHER attempt using Duck-Duck-Go to find an actually existing indictment, charge or extradition activity and still find NOTHING. So folks are working themselves into a frenzy over NOTHING.
Easy for DeSantis - all he had to do was stay focused on THE ENEMY, which is Bragg (and Soros, and the Democrats), rather than try to back-slap Trump in the process. Fat chance that DeSantis gets any Trump voters now.
His ONLY chance is for new advisors who are NOT part of the GOP Establishment...but I doubt he knows of any.
“DeSantis hasn’t been throwing out slanderous insults against Trump”
Did it twice today in one breath.
The title doesn't match the Trump quote.
Outside of the name call, Trump's comment is pretty tame.
2020 was for all the marbles.
“Am I the only one who remembers that?”
Maybe. Honestly, this is one situation I’ve paid almost zero attention to.
“DeSantis hasn’t been throwing out slanderous insults against Trump”
Did it twice today in one breath.
Yes, they are trading barbs, we should expect that. It is the MEDIA that is getting it way out of proportion.
Never let a headline do your thinking for you.
Good post. If only your advice were followed we’d be far better off.
Trump does not sound like he is doing well. He DOES sound desperate. I feel bad for him.
“So folks are working themselves into a frenzy over NOTHING.”
You need to contact every mover and shaker in the country, on both sides, and let them in on your inside, accurate knowledge. No one else knows anything definite, but it all points to an indictment.
