Ron DeSantis opens fire on Trump’s character, chaotic leadership style
NY Post ^ | March 21, 2023 4:57pm | Piers Morgan

Posted on 03/21/2023 3:09:41 PM PDT by conservative98

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has finally taken the gloves off and launched a blistering attack on his former mentor President Donald Trump.

In an exclusive wide-ranging interview with me airing on Fox Nation’s “Piers Morgan Uncensored” on Thursday, he said “stay tuned” about his widely expected announcement that he’s running for president and declared: I have what it takes to be president and I can beat Biden.

But it’s what he said about Trump that will ignite a firestorm in the Republican Party.

Trump? Not quite. Unless he does go to jail.

Look at you, cheering on the corruption of the legal system so you can get your way. Just like desantis, you don't care about anything but yourself.

Didn’t read the article, did you?

If anything, Piers Morgan is trying to incite outrage.

He uses provocative headline and lead-ins, but Desantis delivers little in print anyway, in terms of “opens fire” or “roasts”.

He may have something different to say on the recording Thurs, but the extensive print doesn’t reveal much “opening fire” hyperbole.

He’s critical, yes, but metered.

It’s Piers (Trump invitee on Apprentice, and winner) who is stoking fires.

Anything for publicity.

Ron is growing old and tiresome.

“President Trump’s “chaotic leadership methods” made money, jobs, and prosperity to America.”
*********************************************************
Yeah and if he had worked on having less chaos and hiring loyal people he might still be making money, jobs and prosperity for America.

Mssr. Governor’s state is still leading the way with jobs, prosperity and freedom. Why? Because Mssr. Governor has self-control, in addition to focus and drive.

desantis never announced he’s running for president...

I wasn't talking to you bot dot dot dot

Since you can't read so well, the poster I responded to made it clear that Ron was in the race. Much like you, that poster is a Ronbot dot dot dot

That makes it a violation of Florida Law. It's clear as a bell that Ron is running and Ron should have the common decency to own up to this shadow campaign he is being sued over or resign and register his campaign. Being a 'Florida Man' you should be able to confirm that with in your systems dot dot dot

Ask your programmers to update your optical reading system and you will stop suffering these weird disconnects dot dot dot

Why sit out? If Trump is not the nominee, I plan to write his name in. It’s Trump or nobody for me and my family. IMO, Trump is the only one who will fight for us. And with the way everybody, both the left and right, has been coming after him since June 2015 when he first announced he was running, that has to tell you something, no? For the 4 years he was President, I give him a lot of credit for what he got done with arrows going after him the whole time. It’s a miracle he got anything done!

If you read the article, you’ll see it’s not that bombastic or cutting and “pissing match”.

I’d agree with you except they still haven’t proven Ron is a petulant child like Trump.

Trump don’t back down from media, he’ll play the game with these media hacks and won’t back down. Btw, you do know Morgan is a rabid anti 2nd A right?

Desantis looks like he’s wearing hand me down pants, saggy too big looking in top of pants and they’re floods. Whomever dressed him must want him to look like a clown.

Yes, but Piers nicely transcribed much here, and I’m not seeing real bombast.

We can verify it Thursday but the transcript isn’t that exciting about any “pissing match”, to quote another poster.

“what we floridians elected him to do...”

Y’all elected Charlie Crist, JEB, and almost a Crackhead to run your state.

Judgement is not your forte.

Our PDJT the GOAT is ready to lead.

Tallahassee Ron is just your next JEB!

I just knew I’d create a knee-jerk reaction with that post - along with an adjective injection too.

LOL!

Read the article.

Not seeing this world-shaking animosity that Piers declares there is.

My inquiry still stands. I want to know who DeSantis would appoint. Actual names, not a vaporous “solid conservative credentials” description.

But I also want to know Trump’s appointees as well. Not past appointees but future appointees.
That is what will run the next government.

Iknow Piers has been a lib. I also know sometimes he acts reasonably.

Partly from watching Trump’s show. Trump sure invited a lot of curious people on his show and gave them money.

Yes, much ado about nothing. Tabloid clickbait headline, Piers teasing his show for ratings. Freepers used to be more savvy and wise to these tactics. The body of the article does not match the headline at all. We have no idea what DeSantis actually said or didn’t say. But hey, that does not stop some people from getting all worked up over a fake headline. Good grief, Charlie Brown.
