DeSantis: GOP 'Must Reject the Culture of Losing,' No More 'Excuses'
News Max ^ | 5/14/2023 | Eric Mack

Posted on 05/14/2023 7:47:32 AM PDT by rod5591

While echoing the policies and positions of former President Donald Trump, Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis took some veiled shots the runaway GOP primary polling leader – blasting Republicans as having been losers.

"We must reject the culture of losing that has infected our party in recent years. The time for excuses is over. We've got to demonstrate the courage to lead and the strength to win."

"If we make the 2024 election a referendum on Joe Biden and his failures, and if we provide a positive alternative for the future of this country, Republicans will win across the board," DeSantis said. "If we do not do that, if we get distracted, if we focus the election on the past or on other side issues, then I think the Democrats are going to beat us again, and I think it will be very difficult to recover from that defeat."

Harmeet Dillion and Mike “The Conman” Lindell were running too..
Trump stayed Neutral.

Trump infiltrated the Swamp, including the R team..

Trump doesn’t own the Swamp or the R team.

Trump is fighting the Swamp AND the R team..

MAGA gets this.

Bush,Dole,Bush,McCain,Romney Presidential timber R team does not..

Jeb was their choice in 2016.
Another FL governor is their choice in 2024.

How inspiring! Who’s DeSantis’s script writer? He deserves a raise!

No doubt his personel picks at times were really bad.

He was limited by Mitch McConnell and RINO’s in the Senate
on who they would approve for such positions as FBI Director
and AG.
Ron would face that same bunch of RINO’s in the Senate, as well
on his picks.

“Ah, but ‘excuses are us’ is the modus operandi of lingering Trump voters here on FR. It seems that every thread constantly repeats the narrative that if only, blames everyone else, says there were no good people for Trump to pick or trust from, etc. I look forward to DeSantis, joining the race, and expect he will match or even beat Trump in the polls within 30 days of announcing. Sadly, the fireworks will be depressing here on FR.”

I agree, and the very worst is how the Trump supporters follow his lowbrow NY tactic of using degrading nicknames, like he is some Jr. High School bully. I am sick of that tactic and every time I see it used against a fellow Republican by either Trump or his sycophants, I see red.

And no, calling someone a “sycophant” is not a lowbrow insult, it is a highbrow insult.

“[DeSantis’ is] not saying there was no voter fraud or manipulation of the voting process. He’s saying get off our asses and do something about the situation beyond whine and make excuses.”

Your govt is the bully.
Trump has been its target since 2015..

Trump is public enemy number one.
MAGA voters and Deplorables, public enemy number two.

Trump appears to be standing in the way of the bully so it doesn’t crush his voters..

You are safe
