Well looky here. Seems that you anti-DeSantis guys (with your severe case of DDS).... are doing the exact same thing to DeSantis...that the idiot left has done to Trump.
Telling outright lies and exaggerations blown up to emphasize negatives, using leftist-leaning sources for propaganda bilge, and posting unflattering pics. You guys proud of yourselves now? I sure as hell wouldn’t be.
Please smile.
Riiiiight. This is so dumb. The guy was out during covid mixing it up with voters and drinking beers. His anti mask efforts were built around interacting with voters. Desantis has made a point for years of visiting restaurant teams and doing photos to post all over the state. This is another damn lie. Trump fans, of all people, should understand the media makes up shit daily to report against republicans.
“I’ve consistently heard DeSantis is stiff and doesn’t relate to people well....that he lacks the natural charisma a top contender would have.”
Yeah, I don’t give one damn about his “natural charisma”. It has been said that Obama had loads of that and look where that got us.
And who have you heard that from? Trump cultists and the radical left? You guys listening to extremely biased “sources” need to catch a clue and focus on the traits that are important....for a refreshing change of pace. You know...like enacting pro-American policies that are NOT leftist policies. If DeSantis pushes policies that thwart the leftist takeover of America, he’ll relate just fine with me.
DeSantis’ appeal is the perception that he’s “Trumpism without the Trump”.
Nothing but gossipy old busybody hens trying to comment on so much as how DeSantis combs his hair.
DeSantos may be great for ‘28 but not for ‘24.
“Please stop. He served and made a CHOICE to do so. It may not be what you consider legit, but he voluntarily served. Other candidates including President Trump made a CHOICE not to serve.”
Isn’t it funny ....ironic, in fact...that some of these same people bashing DeSantis over his military service... would be outraged if the left was doing this to one of their chosen candidates. And then there are others doing the bashing, that would be bashing anyone on the right, I’m betting. It literally reeks of how the left attacked GWB for his military service in the TANG. Deja vu....
You DeJeb fans need to realize that the guy has to actually win the nomination and then win the election. He is trailing badly for the Republican nomination in no small part because he lacks charisma.
As for Trump’s policies, I loved them for the most part. His choice of personnel left a lot to be desired, but his policies on the whole were quite good.
Are you going to believe your eyes.....
or desantis supporters who seem no different than the lying, deceptive desantis
“For me, DeSantis is the spare, not the heir. At least not yet.”
Yes, and if you successfully eliminate or destroy the spare.... where will you be if or when you end up needing the spare?
Too many here with tunnel vision focused ONLY on Trump....who the left is busily attempting to disqualify from even running, much less from winning. We need a backup plan but these people are, for some reason, trying to destroy that backup option. You have to wonder why. It’s almost like they’re not really focused on saving America but have another agenda in mind.
“You DeJeb fans need to realize that the guy has to actually win the nomination and then win the election. He is trailing badly for the Republican nomination in no small part because he lacks charisma.”
And you Trump Only fans need to realize that if you successfully bash and destroy DeSantis as a candidate...and the left manages to disqualify or wound Trump’s campaign enough that he can’t run OR can’t win....we’ll have NO candidate remaining that would have a chance of beating the Democrats in 2024. What? Do you really want to end up with Pence as the only GOP option?
This circular firing squad BS is just that...asinine and idiotic BS. There’s a right way to run against other GOP candidates in a primary and this ain’t it. This reeks of leftist ‘politics of personal destruction’ crap to me.
Right. Which is ‘why’ the left is determined to eliminate Trump from the running ...or from the winning.
What then? When the idiot left succeeds in their agenda of “get Trump”...what’s the plan then? The idiot right will have destroyed DeSantis as a candidate as well...
so that leaves who, exactly?
There's no way they can keep him off the ballot. The SCOTUS has already ruled on this several times. Eugene V Debs ran for president from prison in 1920. As for wounding his campaign, every time they try this corrupt lawfare BS they only strengthen Trump's support from the voters.
desantis supporters/likely nevertrumpers think if Trump is taken out, Jeb2.0/desantis will be the default backup republican candidate.
the lying, deceitful, corrupt desantis, who’s being propped up and endorsed by swampy GOPe rinos, and will become a puppet to the uniparty that just gave everyone the new debt bill, and is gaslighting everyone it’s a great deal.
Nope.... if that’s the current ‘republican’ party, it can go away.

In a perfect or sane nation or world......or at least one that is still going by ‘the law’...that might be true. But do you not see how the law has been thrown out by these leftist cretins and is being twisted and used against us now?
Hell, this is probably all just moot, anyway. We’ve seen only part of what the left is willing to do to get and keep their power over us.
There are millions of illegals flooding across the border as we speak. Millions more already here, millions more to come. Do you really think the Obama/Soros regime will not give blanket amnesty to those illegals making it legal for them to all vote Democrat? I see it clearly as their next new outrage against Americans. And nobody on our side has even tried, really, to prevent more election theft by fraud.
If I sound upset, it’s because I am. We’re screwed.

Um....the new debt bill “deal” was done by Kevin McCarthy, a Trump-endorsed and Trump-approved and praised RINO. I can’t believe you just tried to use that as a talking point against the swamp and “for” your argument...lol. You’re hilarious.
And that would be the same ole same ole “republican” party it has been for decades now. Some of us just call it the Uniparty. Which is ‘why’ some of us see DeSantis as a refreshing change to that same ole same ole crap...proven by policies he has in place in Florida against the radical, evil left.
I’d support and respect DeSantis if he came out today and said he would drop out and support Trump given the egregious politicization of the DOJ and he would stand by Trump and campaign for him.
Thank you for not jumping on the, “Oh you will destroy the country bandwagon by that thinking.” -— To answer your question, I will write in President Trump.
I’m an America First voter. President Trump governed by that principal (under 2 horrendous impeachments BTW), and the country prospered despite everything thrown at him. Actually, my family did VERY WELL. Now President Trump is once more running on America First. He’s not abandoned it, and thus has my vote.
As for the GOP, I’ve learned in my life NEVER to say NEVER when I lay down ultimatums; however, I can promise you this, The GOP Establishment will NOT get my precious vote.
Why? I’d rather vote for the enemy who’s face I can see, not the enemy (who professes to be on my side) twisting the knife in my back. I offer Kevin McCarthy as a current example.
I’m done with the gaslighting of your party leaders. I’m finished with the knives in my back then telling me why I should be happy about it. I’m sick of GOP politicians joining the Uniparty in DC every chance they get and suffering no consequences for that behavior. The GOP will either change or die along with the country.
I like Ron DeSantis, but as the saying goes, he has all the wrong friends. If he gets in the WH I have no confidence he will be his own man—I believe that the Bush/Ryan wing of your party will control him. After the Jim Hoft Gateway Pundit article of May 11th, I wrote (snail mail) the Gov asking if he would denounce his PAC’s assertions that Hoft highlighted. CRICKETS.....
