Tracing the power of Casey DeSantis
Washington Post ^ | June 18, 2023 | Ruby Cramer

Posted on 06/19/2023 11:44:31 AM PDT by SoConPubbie

As Ron DeSantis pursues the presidency, his wife’s role is limitless. Casey, 42, isn’t a typical political spouse. Why does that inspire so much fear? Her rise in TV and insular marriage tell the story.

“Where is she at?”

Ron was always asking.

Ron DeSantis was in the middle of a picnic in Sioux Center, Iowa, bent over a homemade poster. Four photos, arranged in a neat grid, stared back at him: Ron and Casey, smiling on election night, 2022; Ron and Casey, smiling outside the governor’s mansion, 2021; a headshot of Ron; a headshot of Casey. The governor signed his name in the corner, leaving room for his wife’s signature. He was the one running for president, but of course she should sign it, too. “I don’t know where the first lady is, but she’ll do it,” he said.

She’s all class. So is Melania. See, I’m not a cult member. The OnlyTrumpers are mentally unwell. Cult members usually are.

Trump shut down the whole Country, and let Faucci run amok while letting Kurshner run the place. Who was the cuck?

Your fair game as well, you are a SMALL man who likes to go after people’s wives on the Internet. It excites you.

Yeah, I agree with you about those one candidate, one issue republicans.

I’m a big Trump supporter.

About 8 months ago I was tilting away from Trump for multiple reasons (none of them major) such as age, he does not deserve the BS but the HUGE thing that turned me away from Trump were the very posters you speak of.

They went from right to try to give it a try (Covid Vaccine) and hope you die. Everybody has a right to choose if they want to be vaccinated or not. Instead of fighting the policy that forces Americans to be vaccinated, they instead decided to demonize what was once referred to (by some Trump admin) as the “Trump Vaccine”. People know the risks of the vaccine. Stop calling them marxist, leftwing pinkos just because they got the Covid Vaccine.

These particular Trump supporters HURT Trump much more than any DeSantis or Biden supporter could ever dream of. They do NOT score any republican or independent votes. They likely discourage them away from Trump. They certainly got me looking at DeSantis and even though I would strongly support Trump as President, I was tilting more towards Ron Desantis.

After the last few months of trials and new charges against candidate Trump who is leading in the polls, At ths point if Desantis or any other republican were to beat Trump in the Primary, I would find it difficult to accept this win as legit and I would likely consider Trump’s loss as a result to election interference.

What would be different this time from the 2st Time. Almost all of Trump’s picks undermined him.

I may support Trump, but the Only Trumpers only belive in Trump. Most American Firsters saw, and see him as a flawed tool.

Trump gave power to Faucci Trump fired Bannon. The man who was most loyal to him, and who’s Campain got him Elected in 2016. Trump let Javanka have free reign of his picks, and they ram a horrible Campain in 2020, hardly any comercials. no answers to attacks. FACTS.

First thought I had, too-a retired general’s wife out here got a group to play cards once a month at her place-most of us were military wives, and she knew the rank and service branch of our husbands-at the refreshment table, she insisted on seating us in order of that rank-with her at the head of the table, which most of us were not going for-the woman was insane...

Does Casey DeSantis think she’s Hillary Clinton now?
