Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said Thursday that the Manhattan indictment of Donald Trump was “un-American” and that his state would not help hand the former president over to New York officials.
The conservative Republican, who is expected to challenge Trump for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, said District Attorney Alvin Bragg was weaponizing his office by bringing charges after impaneling a grand jury to look into hush money payments to pornstar Stormy Daniels
“The weaponization of the legal system to advance a political agenda turns the rule of law on its head. It is un-American,” DeSantis said on Twitter.

We’ll see. He should be able to afford one.
Whether he can find one that is willing and can afford to take the slings and arrows is another matter.
I’m not him, but if I was, I wouldn’t be enjoying a second of it. This is a dangerous game.
I wouldn’t either, but I don’t enjoy a lot of the things he enjoys. I don’t want to be on social media, or get a lot of ettention.
The ‘rule of law’ is that DeSantis can’t stop the extradition even if trump wanted him to for reasons other than to get DeSantis in trouble.

What would this mean for his rally’s?
Yes, he's done quite a few things that can be construed that way. If so, it would be the most cleverest plan ever devised by man. It is still in the back of my mind though, haunting me.
“Once I’m separated from my security, the world becomes a dangerous place.”
Gee, you act like a celebrity can be locked in a jail in New York City, and then the cameras can be turned off, his cellmate removed, and the guards on duty might “fall asleep”, long enough for some incident to occur...
Yes....and I’m going to fly my US Flag with Trump posters.
The Xiden controlled Secret Service will handle the job.
? **The** DS = **the** Deep State
No, don't stop to consider it's **the** common acronym, used with the definite article to distinguish from someone's initials, just jump to conclusions lickety split. It's the knee-jerk way to make a beeline for the worst supposed interpretation and then run with it. Not okay when the Establishment does that all day every day, like it does to President Trump, though..
I wrote **the** DS, as is written a 1000x over around here for **the** Deep State, but if I thought about the potential for automaton hysterics on a thread involving DeSantis (RDS), I'd have written it in full.
Then again, maybe I should just keep on using **the** DS, so bad actors will self-implode. Handy!
As for what else I wrote in post 16,
You'd think folks would begin to catch on by now.Living parables in real time.
Believing in the constitution and reality are two different things.
Ever hear of state rights during the civil war?
We are at war and the other side(the uniparty government) thinks our sacred constitution is a useless piece of paper.
Embrace reality!
Vindicated or assassinated.
That was a fairly aristocratic group of peasants.
Yes. That’s exactly it. And where are the other governors? DeSantis made a great statement. None of the others did. Youngkin? Huckabee? Ect:
Lying trash.
After DeSantis’ incredibly thoughtful statement, Then trump decided to just comply.
DeSantis could cure cancer, and some of these folks would still be griping about something. You can't win with a bigot.
Unproductive at best, and what we expect to find on DU. Fix your own backyards; Florida's one of the best in the nation, and that's no accident.
