Ron DeSantis has run to the defense of his 2024 Republican rival Donald Trump to attack the Department of Justice and ask why it isn't going after Hillary Clinton or Hunter Biden - but stopped short of offering to pardon.
However DeSantis, who is second place in polls across the country, stopped short of saying he would pardon Trump if he won the 2024 race, and the former president was convicted.
DeSantis supporters have said that Trump should drop out of the White House race to the Florida governor can pardon him if he wins in 2024. Trump currently holds a considerable lead over DeSantis in the polls.

Why would you pardon someone before there is a guilty verdict? A pardon doesn’t clear one’s name and could be see. as an admission of guilt. If I were Trump I would want a chance at discovery and a chance to clear my name in court. If/when there is a guilty verdict there will be plenty of time for pardons
No. Another dem in office because Trump worshipping republicans would rather write in Trump than defeat a democrat.
You’re either speaking out of complete ignorance or fabricating a story to garner support for some unidentified side. He publicly spoke out against it.
“Yes the magic seed polls. 2022 were so accurate. 2020 was stunningly accurate. Sad you believe liberal polls. Or any polls.”
Yep, I’ll believe polls regarding Trump in the lead when the people polling hate Trump.
Just as I believe the NY Times article that Ukraine is infested with Nazis (since we already know they are).
At this point I support desantis but would vote for trump if he is the nominee and I hope you would too. I dont think trump can win at this point but 4 more years of biden/harris is unthinkable. I will not do anything to help elect them.
I really wish one of you calling yourself a 'conservative' would define what that word literally means...
I took people in Florida's word they wanted DEE-Saintis to be their governor for the full term. What I am discovering is a few cannot wait to ship him back to WDC.... Seems a bit double minded ... I do not find DEE-Santis a truthful person.
I further find his supporters less than honest as well... they too carry the gene of sanctimony .. as if that is their lot in life ...
Now IF my memory serves me, you never respected candidate Trump, and even less respect for President Donald Trump.... What is it with you Trump haters that demand your chosen candidate be idolized like you all idolize him/her?
I don’t remember that he did.
Would be interested to know what he said at the time.
I voted for the man twice and would do so a third time. Did I come to that decision slowly the first time? Absolutely. I have no idea what cockamamie thoughts have to run through your head to call out conservatives concerning their credentials, honesty or for that matter their disposition as “sanctimonious.” Forget me and my honesty. I could HONESTLY (see what I did there?) care less what you may think of me. But I am curious, what precisely has Desantis done that you’d call his honesty into question? What strikes me is that your rebuttal is actually quite humorous. I literally just said I want EITHER to win. Yet, in your deluded thinking I’m a “Trump hater.”
You’ve proven to be EXACTLY what you’re labeling others; and idolizing worshipper. Here, I’ll spell it again very very clearly so that it’s very understandable. I voted Trump twice. I’d vote Trump a third time. I prefer Desantis. I’ll root for both as both are after similar goals. Your response does nothing but alienate people, pit people against each other, is divisive and ultimately does nothing but create another Cruz/Trump war which is the last thing we need on this forum.
That’s very fair! Let me dig up the links for ya!

Simply not good enough
Voting for Dummies:
Never vote for a lawyer!
That was one of the best things about Trump!
DeSantis? No thanks. I don’t trust him.
Here we go again .. dancing a word dance spewing word salad and no viable definition of that word ‘conservative’
What that word means to me is ‘God’, family, and country ... There has not been a person in the office of the president since Reagan that has love of country like the man Donald Trump ...
Perhaps you know this, and your hate of him causes you to accuse his supporters of idol worship? I do not worship mammon... The Heavenly Father is where my blessings come, in the name of Jesus Christ.
I despise the trans-Republicans who helped steal an election ... They assisted in the theft of MY vote .. this is personal .. and they too call themselves ‘conservative’.. and trash President Trump calling him a populist as if he is inferior ...
I say, trans republican like and want godfather Joe, more power to them.
Absolutely.
One thing I forgot to mention earlier.
Folks talk about Pres Trump’s picks and how horrible they were. They have a point. I may not agree with it, but it’s a pint nonetheless.
In the private sector, where Pres Trump came from, if you’re hired for something and don’t produce, you’re fired and you might find getting a new job, difficult.
If you’re picked by Pres Trump for your subject matter expertise and you fail miserably or actively try to subvert his agenda, in DC it’s a resume enhancer. You get on CNN or MSNBC or get a job at one of the law/lobbying firms. Taken care of for taking one for the teamm
For creepy Trump cultists, like you, there is NOTHING DeSantis can say or do that would be enough.
DeSantis could have Garland at gunpoint and you would say DeSantis is using the wrong weapon....or why didn't he pull the trigger right away....or that is simply not good enough.
Your behavior is no different than the leftists who cannot see anything Trump did as good. Not the Abraham Accords, not the withdrawals from wars, nothing.
Take a hike Erik. You know nothing about me. 🖕
repeal and replace Obamacare ……. Blame McCain for putting himself over the people. Blame congress for not helping Pres Trump for two years
Seems like I hit a nerve.
Of course I will. I’m just sick of the trump cult.
