DC Draino on DeSantis: (I was very let down. Not even for 2024, but for 2028. That he would cower like this.) "How is he gonna jump up to the big leagues? Or lead us through WW3?"

DC Draino on DeSantis: "How is he gonna jump up to the big leagues? Or lead us through WW3?"

Bannon: Talk to me about your assessment of Ron DeSantis. He had the whole weekend to work on this. What is your assessment on how he pulled it off today?

DC: I think it's a tough day when you get outflanked to the right by Kevin McCarthy, which was very suprising. I haven't said a bad thing about DeSantis despite being an open Trump supporter, endorsing him for 2024. But today was the first day that I let loose.

I was very let down. Not even for 2024, but for 2028. That he would cower like this and not rise to the moment. This is a slam dunk. This one is so easy like I said even Kevin McCarthy has gotten it right. I got to give him a lot of credit lately.

But I went back and I looked at what DeSantis said when the FBI raided Mar-A-Lago. I'm pretty sure he had a tough stance there and he said:

"The raid of Mar-A-Lago (he tweeted it that night, didn't wait 72 hours) is another escalation of the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime's political opponents while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves. Now the Regime is getting another 87k IRS agents to wield against its adversaries? Banana Republic."

That's Ron DeSantis! What we heard today was Paul Ryan. That was Paul Ryan. That was the donor class. That was a terrible time to take a cheap shot at President Trump. No matter who is the lead Republican candidate they are going to come up with crazy salacious porn star accusations they can against anybody. Look at what they did to Mitt Romney. The guy has never even drank a beer.

So just a big letdown today and I hope he comes back from this. The one thing on the plus side to come out today is that Florida has a great governor for the next 4 years without any risk of him leaving.

Bannon: DC, Is he now totally controlled by the consultants and the big donors? Because that's clearly what it was. How did that happen over the last couple months? Walk me through because as you guys are in Florida, I am very high on him as governor. But walk me through what happened here.

DC: I think they got to him. I think that was the biggest letdown today because I saw what happened and I know this guy. Like I said I want President Trump in 2024 but I said that's not Ron.

And If he will take a knee in an easy slam dunk situation like this, how is he going to jump up to the big leagues? How is he going to lead us through WW3? How is he going to dissasemble the deep state? How is he going to withstand the onslaught of lawsuits and endictments and accusations when you're actually the guy in charge?

And now that was the biggest letdown because we haven't seen that in Florida. We haven't seen him back down like this.

And frankly I think it's just him going on his Presidential Tour across the country eventhough he is technically not because he is still governor. But just trying to play to the donor class, play to the middle is just terrible advice.

When he sticks to his instincts he is on fire. He doesn't need 72 hours to prepare a statement. He can go right then and there. He knows the right answer. This was, "Hey, Ron, you gotta finally hit back at him." Terrible advice, terrible timing. And two, "You gotta call this a sideshow."

If President Trump treated his request for an endorsement in 2018 as a sideshow we'd have a methhead as governor of Florida right now. But he didn't.

This is war. This is a war against a Marxist invasion of our government. We need all hands on deck, boots on the ground every step of the way. Because otherwise these political persecutions are going to metastasize and they are going to come after each and every one of us. Just like they already have been.

Dear Ron, Sorry I was late getting back to you. First you're going to go out of your way to talk about paying "hush money" to a porn star. Then you're going to say it's just a sideshow. Then say it is a manufactured circus. Also it isn't a real issue.

DeSantis needs to fold his tent until 2028.

He’s now catching it from all sides. In 2028, he’d be a much more exciting, and viable, candidate.

ALL DeSantis had to do was sound like McCarthy, another person who hates Trump, but still got it right on this ‘arrest your enemies’ Third World crap.

Seems to have been too much to ask of him.

I never cast a vote without first finding out what “DC Drano” thinks.

Yeah, good one!
DeSantis definitely missed at whatever he was aiming.
He seems to have forgotten the first rule of hunting in the Big Political Safari Tent - if you shoot at it, kill it. Or it’ll sure as hell eat you AND your lunch.

He is sounding more like a politician every day. He needs to fire is campaign manager.

“Florida has a great governor for the next 4 years without any risk of him leaving”

Agreed and after 2028 too.

Tallahassee Ron has shown his colors.
He’s done for good with the MAGA supporters.

What a waste. He took the pieces of silver.

DeSantis does not owe Trump Instantaneous-Cheerleading-
Duties. He’s probably waiting a few days, a few hours to see how this Cliffhanger evolves.

Cower like this? Trump unleashes every vile bit of sleeze he can at DeSantis, and weeps into his panties when DeSantis says exactly the truth.

DeSantis didn’t turn me off as much as he has some others.

I have thought we were going to be disappointed to find
out he’s a lot more like Bush (in some ways), than we
had hoped he would be.

I give the guy good marks in his home states for some
things.

We didn’t think McCarthy would come around, and I think
he pretty much has. We’ll see if he can keep that up.

It’s a fairly long period until 2028. Maybe Ron will
mature in other ways and become an even better guy
we can support. I hope he does.

I’m certainly not praying for more RINOs. You can take
that to the bank. (just don’t leave it there - LOL)

Ron is a typical RINO now.
