Ron DeSantis is Slammed for Refusing to Proclaim President Trump’s Innocence After Soviet-Style Biden Indictment

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is being destroyed on social media for refusing to say that President Donald Trump is innocent following the announcement of his indictment on Thursday.

“The weaponization of federal law enforcement represents a mortal threat to a free society. We have for years witnessed an uneven application of the law depending upon political affiliation. Why so zealous in pursuing Trump yet so passive about Hillary or Hunter? The DeSantis administration will bring accountability to the DOJ, excise political bias and end weaponization once and for all,” DeSantis said in a statement following the announcement of Trump’s indictment.

Many critics on social media pointed out the weakness and cowardice behind DeSantis’ statement that was carefully constructed by his handlers:

Ron DeSantis says nothing should be done about DOJ’s partisanship unless he is President.

He doesn’t call for an end to the Trump witch hunts. There’s no call to action now.

This is a strategic blunder from a Tallahassee team used to dealing with an overwhelming majority of Republicans. https://t.co/9mHPyqCRrk— Richard Grenell (@RichardGrenell) June 9, 2023

“DeSantis administration”.

Every single Republican should be calling @RonDeSantis out for this disgusting, blood lust, power hungry post.

What a vile pig he is for making a campaign pitch off of President Trump being indicted.

I cannot stand with anyone who supports Ron DeSantis in 2024.

It’s where I draw the line. https://t.co/dj2MgUuVej— Laura Loomer (@LauraLoomer) June 9, 2023

I think it’s absolutely disgusting that people like DeSantis and some others who used Trump to advance their careers are now trying to politically capitalize on the political persecution of Donald Trump.

Big League Politics has reported on how the RINO globalist elite are coalescing around DeSantis as the man who they believe can upend Trump’s America First agenda and divert the Republican Party back to the ‘good ol’ days’ of Bush-ism:

“Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is quickly becoming the favorite of the globalist RINO mega donors who want to “move on” from Donald Trump.

Ken Griffin, a globalist RINO mega donor, talked to Politico about why he is backing DeSantis because he sees him as the vehicle to move on from Trump and his brand of populism that has made the GOP less hospitable for soulless corporations that have sold America down the river.

“He did a lot of things really well and missed the mark on some important areas,” Griffin said. “And for a litany of reasons, I think it’s time to move on to the next generation.”

Griffin has given $5 million to DeSantis’ gubernatorial re-election campaign in Florida. He is hoping that by buying favor with DeSantis, he can convince him to run in 2024 in an attempt to end the Trump revolution.

“Would I support him? The bigger question is, is he going to run? That bridge has to be crossed,” he said.

“He has a tremendous record as governor of Florida, and our country would be well-served by him as president,” Griffin added.

It is clear Donald Trump is intending to run for president again in 2024 from the comments he has made.

“Everybody, I promise you, in the very next — very, very, very short period of time, you’re going to be happy,” Trump said. “But first we have to win a historic victory for Republicans on Nov. 8.”

In addition to the RINO megadonors, the notorious former House Majority Leader Paul Ryan is also on board for DeSantis in 2024.”

DeSantis has emerged as the most dangerous and subversive RINO to date. Trump is the last hope for the country. Either he defeats the deep state or the Republic is lost forever – those are the stakes facing us in 2024.

Nonsense. That’s not the way it works. Some of us are able to both have character and expect character.

Someone made a great point today on radio. People are far too obviously putting Trump, a man, above the country. This is much more loyalty to Trump than it is to USA. It may be a weird exposure of the desire for a king which I’m convinced is some natural instinct. I never expected to see that truly manifested in Republicans.

DeSantis spoke up just fine.
Some people will complain no matter what he says.

DeSantis is all for Trump being charged. He’s an member in good standing of the Republican establishment and is hoping Trump is knocked out of the race.

DeSantis is an establishment joke. He's owned by the Republican donor class.

If he was patriot, he would withdraw from the race, condemn the phony charges against Trump and demand they be dropped.

There is NO scenario where I'll vote for DeSantis. It's Trump or communism in 2024.

Following behind Pence is a bad strategy for anyone. Pence is walking a plank over shark infested waters politically. Flirting with “less than 1%.”

The Trumpanzees are pathetic. Anything going on with Trump is of his own making and has nothing to do with DeSantis.

Yet all they do is deflect, deflect, deflect. “Let’s make sure we take DeSantis down with us.” With them, Trump is the perpetual victim.

Wow, I would leave my husband for either one of those political hunks in a minute. And I don’t think that’s my LSD talking. The flying bats above me are chattering up there agreeing with me. Listen.

Trump unfortunately, is his own worst enemy. He IS being railroaded, but he talks on tape too much, again Bannon would have kept him safe.

Don’t trust Mike Pence.

If you do, you will be PENCED, screwed to the wall and abandoned.

Mike, “traitor” Pence is a zero. How, the hell, was he picked to be VP to betray his President?

I will campaign against any chance the loser, Pence, has to be elected to any office.

Nonsense. That’s your take on what motivates Trump supporters - nothing more. And it’s inaccurate. Most of us come on here every day and offer rational reasons for why we support Trump. Defining us as a cult who worships the man over the country, is just a lazy way to dismiss our arguments.

Speaking for myself and I’m sure many others, I support the man because he fights for us. Period. Considering how rare that is in Washington, that’s reason enough to have earned our loyalty.

As I said in my original comment, it’s what we choose to focus on that separates us. We focus on the man’s actions. You focus on his personality, not his character as you like to claim. You falsely equate the two (i.e. personality and character), and I would go as far as to say that you value personality more than you do character.

As a leader, Trump’s integrity and character are unrivaled in Washington. That’s what we focus on, - not his personality.

I am disappointed to see the way Ron DeSantis is handling his campaign,
He is acting, the way he has to date, because Trump has mounted a nasty campaign against him.
Can you blame him?
Ron DeSantis is an honorable man, a great Governor and a legitimate prospect to be POTUS.
I would like to see him run in 2028, after DJT wins in 2024./

Don’t pull that high-minded air when you just libeled anyone who “focuses on his personality” to “not care about those things”, and expect anyone who likes those things to be loyal to HIM.

BTW, slinging insults at anyone and everyone, especially when unprovoked, publicly is not “personality”, it is CHARACTER.

Yours is an ok opinion. But as someone else wrote, if Desantis bows out for this he may never be able to step up. Opportunity lost.

Nonsense. I didn’t “libeled anyone who “focuses on his personality” to “not care about those things”. Read what I said. I was addressing that individual poster. I never said you don’t care about those things. But I did suggest they don’t matter to you as much as personality does.

Try responding with your intellect instead of your emotions next time.

Tired, old, fable.

Did he lock her up? No. Did he build a wall? No. Did he make Mexico pay for anything? No. Did he balance the budget? No. Did he keep his pledge to not support gay marriage? No. Did he protect us from Fauci? No. Did he secure the 2020 election? No. Did he investigate how the election was stolen, and try to actually secure elections before 2022? No.

What did he do? He built a website, where he plays a keyboard warrior in his member only echo chamber, which his disciples equate to "fighting."
