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.

What a bunch of hostile surly foul-mouths we have here lately.

Please note the FR rules. If they could police it well lots of posts would be removed the last few years.

Never-Trump?

No I’m just not an Ever-Trump.

And who cares anyway? Stop being so beholden to a single highly flawed man. Can’t have any viewpoint other than Trump is Dear Leader.

In other words — you were incorrect and you can’t admit it

were those GOP-controlled legislative bodies during 2017 and 2018? Yes or no? simple question — which you of course won’t answer because then you’d have to admit you are wrong

“tagging desantis “desanctimonious” while desantis was running for reelection for florida governor last year (2022)...”

Where is the backstab? He earned that name by claiming he was the 8th day creation of God.

“3 weeks ago trump stated florida has been benefitting from charlie crist’s policies...”

That is called politics. Where is the backstab?

I am still looking for the backstab. But the little ingrate is backstabbing Trump daily by running against him. Were it not for Trump, who brought him about 20 points up by his endorsement, DeSantis would have been trounced by the sodomite. As it was, he barely won.

Paul Ryan, speaker of the house when Trump became president. Might as well have been Nancy Pelosi. Got it?

And, like I said, with congress being so tight with the numbers, it might as well have been a democrat congress. Got it?

However, Trump got things done, with a democrat congress and a republican congress. Republicans were weak, which is why democrats won the house again during Trump's years. Got it?

It's a wonder that Trump got so much done with so many opposing him, from the left and the right. What he got done is a credit to him and not to the brief republican control at the beginning of his presidency. Got it???

It's very,very doubtful that DeSantis would have been able to get 1/3 of what Trump did, even if DeSantis had friends in congress.

So, am I wrong? Heck no! I can't admit being wrong, because, I'm completely right, and you can't understand the logic behind my arguments.

DeSantis? I like him, but he can't even come close to being a Trump-like president.

Who is surly to you, me?

I could care less about you or anything else you have to post. Stop posting to me.

I'm not interested. Now go bother someone else.

None of you DeSantis-bots, who attack Trump for ego, have never ever responded to my reminders that DeSantis modestly claims to be a special 8th day creation of God.

What would you all do in Trump had said that? Stroke out en masse?

Willful ignorance? Can’t you do better than that?

I don’t like either one of them. Trump is overrated and I don’t think Desantis is any better.

“With Congress being so tight with the numbers” — your words

How tight?
U.S. Senate started out 2017 with a 52-48 margin (GOP majority) and ended 2018 with a 52-47 margin (counting the 2 communist independents in the Democrat total) (plus the GOP VP to break any ties)

U.S. House of Reps started out 2017 with a 241-194 margin (GOP majority) and ended 2018 with a 236-196 margin (GOP majority)

At the best you’re incorrect. At the worst you’re living a fantasyland of willful self-delusion.

A margin of at least 40 votes in the House is way more than plenty to get lots of things done. And a four-vote margin in the Senate, while prey to the whims of the then-senators from Alaska and South Carolina and Maine, is still quite workable.

About the only bill enacted and signed that was worth anything was the tax cut and reform act of 2017

so again — you’re wrong. and now you’re twice wrong.

got it?

“i did address it...it’s a campaign video...”

You ever hear after each campaign ad, the voice over says: “I am [candidate so and so] and I approve this message.” It is required by law to filter out fake campaign ads from an opponent. So, no, you have yet to address it.

“there’s nothing wrong with protecting our children from looney leftists indoctrination...why do you have a problem with that?...”

I quoted you a line from a recent speech by Trump. He was saying that he would stop all that, like he has been saying for years.

And why do you think I have a problem with that?

You must be kind of dumb.
