Trump claims DeSantis attacks are personal, calls him ‘disloyal’ for running against him: ‘I got him elected’
NY Post ^ | 06/21/2023 | Yael Halon

Former President Donald Trump suggested that his attacks against his Republican challenger Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis are personal in the second part of his exclusive interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier, saying that he finds it “very disloyal” that DeSantis joined the 2024 presidential race after he helped him get elected in Florida.

Trump, who is battling DeSantis for the GOP presidential nomination, was discussing the COVID response of several Republican governors when he invoked the Florida governor’s nickname, “Rob DeSanctimonious” during the second part of the hour-long interview that aired Tuesday on “Special Report.”

“Why do you use that name?” Baier interjected.

“I got him elected,” Trump replied. “And I thought it was very disloyal when he said ‘Yes, I’d run.’ I got him past two races."

Who types for you? Because you certainly can’t read, so how do you write? I never said trump was dead nor do I wish it on him. And you call me an idiot. Project much?

I have heard about Desantis’ plan and team to take apart the swamp, but Trump just makes some vague statements he’ll do it. Maybe he’s going to reuse his previous highly successful plan of hiring them to his side? Maybe he’ll even hire Fauci back and turn his presidency over to him again.

I’ve seen DeSantis firmly address the cultural rot and corporate support of it, while DJT supports Disney and AB because they are big donors. And who threw a big LGBT gala at Mar-a-Lago? DeSantis told Disney who donated to him to kiss off with their groomer advocacy, while Trump worried that Disney would stop donating to the GOP, so to go easy on them. True conviction from Don. But DeSantis is the supposed sell out. SMH.

As President, Trump praised Diane Feinstein for her work on gun control and uselessly banded bump stocks while DeSantis got Constitutional carry passed in Florida. So who is really in favor of our 2A rights and who can be trusted to protect them best? Not NYC Trump if he doesn’t have to worry about re-election in 2028.

Trump hired backstabbers and grifters to staff the WH and his administration and had leaks and turmoil galore, while the Gov. of Florida has had virtually no leaks and chaos in his highly successful administration; all done without petty name calling and blame placing.

Trump will do, but he’s not the best to do what needs to be done and he’s least likely to get elected to do it.

Either way, chances are extremely high that Biden cruises to victory while the Dems take both houses of Congress, thus sealing the destruction of the country.

And Biden dying in office, thereby leading to his sainthood and eternal presence on some coin - ala FDR,JFK and the others.

DeSantis supporters will get angrier & angrier as their little hero continues to “flame out” in 2024.

It’s only going to get worse.

Wonderful observations, Observator! Let me repeat your points and add a few more to show the kind of character DeSantis is proving to be:

I have a new meme for FReepers to consider.  And no, I feel no shame to post this -- if you can't have free speech on Free Republic, what's the point?

And since Ron's donors are paying tens of millions of dollars to hire many thousands of DeSantis supporters to knock on doors in Iowa and South Carolina, am I entitled to post a new meme that nobody paid me a nickel to create.

Click to see the meme:

De Snake Hiss!

So what is a snake?:

Dictionary.com: a treacherous person; an insidious enemy.

Urban Dictionary: A person who seems like a really nice person you can confide in, but is actually a backstabber waiting for the moment to strike.

Merriam-Webster: a secretly unfaithful friend

The entire DC Swamp sabotaged him every step of the way, but he accomplished more than any conservative President in a hundred years.

You suck.

He certainly did with E. Jean Carroll and Stormy Daniels and 19 others. A role model to say the least.

Not only do you suck, all you know how to do is parrot documented lies.
