DeSantis Tells Silicon Valley McCarthy Donors He’s Against Tariffs on China
National File ^ | June 21, 2023 | CHARLES DOWNS

Ron DeSantis is embracing the globalist trade policies that destroyed the American Working Class. As Ron DeSantis pledged his allegiance to Silicon Valley elites, Donald Trump’s interview, in which he stated he would tariff China and Ron DeSantis would not, was airing.

Pro-China globalist Ken Griffin is in control of Ron DeSantis’ foreign policy. Many political insiders speculate that Griffin aims to be DeSantis’ Treasury Secretary.

Laura Loomer commented on the DeSantis tariff news, tweeting, “@RonDeSantis’s loyalty to Silicon Valley and his ties to Big Tech tyrants is the main reason why I cannot stand him. Look at what he just told a bunch of Silicon Valley donors. And just as I reported before, @SpeakerMcCarthy still hasn’t endorsed Donald Trump but his biggest donors are having fundraisers for @RonDeSantis. And that’s because McCarthy intends to stab Trump in the back and endorse DeSantis. McCarthy’s son Connor, as I have reported, even works for Joe Lonsdale, a long time McCarthy donor and Big Tech investor/ Trump hater.”

“I do not understand how he thinks that stance is either good for the country or good for his candidacy.”

He doesn’t think that. What he actually said was that Trump’s tariffs were ineffective.

And, since Biden has been ok with keeping Trump’s tariffs in place (yes, even today) DeSantis is correct.

Nothing. National File is Down’s anti-DeSantis blog, just like Last Refuge’s is Sundance’s blog. They take their personal anti-DeSantis mindset and twist news stories to fit their hatred of him. If you go to their blogs and look at their sources, what the sources say is usually very different from their “interpretation” of them.

How can a judge rule that he can’t hold office?

“ As Ron DeSantis pledged his allegiance to Silicon Valley elites, ….”

This sentence is enough to demonstrate that this article is nothing more than a hit piece.

I would think Trump supporters would know how to ignore those at this point.

The same could be said about you and your fellow posters fawning over Ron Baby. It’s kind of nauseating.

100% GRADE A BULLSH!T

This was posted before. The National File cites a Twitter tweat which cites a Twitter tweat which cites a news clip of a funder saying what DeSantis said, and includes nothing of the sort.

Find one post—just one—where I have “fawned over” DeSantis. Your lies and your nasty, insulting comments make you a miserable ambassador for your idol, DJT.

DeGlobalist reassures Rich donors behind closed doors he won’t do tariffs on
China, then says the opposite to the public.
Typical low life politician.

“I doubt he really wanted to run.”

I agree, and he shows it. Even though he initially got Ukraine right, saying, in effect, that it wasn’t worth World War 3 just to protect Biden’s buddies - he then flipped 3 days later.

To me that says he’s not even thinking about Ukraine as he OBVIOUSLY does not have a thought out position, literally the top issue affecting this country.

So he’s told he’ll be flooded with money, the media will treat him really nice (he likely has no clue what will happen if he did somehow make it to November, simply because it didn’t interest him in the past), and our corrupted ‘Justice Department’ will take care of his main opposition. (for you stalkers, this is my speculation, I’m not stating it as a fact)

Inflation was 2% when Trump was toppled in a coup de Etat.

In my opinion, they are only ineffective because they are not strict enough, and are sabotaged by our own politicians.

Tarriffs are imposed when nations engage in practices that do not practice free or fair trade practices. And with respect to Communist China, they are absolutely warranted.

Anyone who thinks that Communist China engages in Free or Fair trade practices needs to have their heads examined. The Chinese Communists are engaged in, and have been for decades, warfare that goes far beyond the scope of hard-nosed business practices. “Negotiation” with them as we continue to trade as if they are “partners” is lunacy.

Americans just do not recognize it as such, and that recognition is long overdue.

Treating them as if they were a trade “partner” is a psychotic delusion.

Ok, not backing Trump means you are ok with a lot of things: Here are just a few:

That is just few....

You probably think the '20 election was legit and Biden got 81 million real votes.

Not the only reason. Tariffs protect industry, support wages and raise revenue on the back of consumers of imported goods. win-win-win.

Trump is going to be in prison accompanied by a judge’s ruling that prohibits him from holding the office. His own arrogance and narcissism would have put him there. What are you going to do then?

As if we all don't have a problem if a Deep State judge unconstitutionally prevents an American First candidate from running?
