My introduction to Ron DeSantis was reading about things he did I agreed with.
I liked the guy, what little Ihad seen.
I saw short video clips of him, and I saw no problems.
During this campaign season I have seen more video clips of him in which I
was surprised by how awkward he appeared at times.
I had thought he would stay out of this election cycle. I was wrong.
I have not been impressed by his campaign, and it has forced me to choose
sides, Trump has had my trust. Ron, by trying to get me and others to select
him over Trump, has lost mine.
Something like 60% of the nation thinks Trump has been treated unfairly. Many
of them have rallied to Trump’s defense.
Now when Ron tosses out reasons why he and not Trump should be the
nominee, it just seems like more attack, even with reasoning that sounds as
if it was a Democrat that had said it.
Last week it came to the point that I thought Ron had done everything he could do to gain support, but it just wasn’t happening.
Any attempt by him further was going to cost him, rather than help him.
His chance at the ring it’s gone.
Ron DeSantis has shot his short term game plan. Hus chance is gone.
Now he’s damaging his long term chance.
He doesn’t understand that, so he doesn’t see that dynamic.
He’s not going to stop until he’s so offended folks, they are never going to want him.
He’s now Gon DeSantis. It’s a shame really. He could have had my full support,
but now I’m no longer interested.
DeSantis lost mine for the same reason, but it was right out of the gate. When he entered the race, he was saying Trump out and DeSantis in, because DeSantis is more capable.. Otherwise, he would have endorsed Trump.
It changed my mind on who DeSantis is.
A fair a personal testimonial as you’re going to read. Thanks for laying out your reasoning, DoughtyOne.
It was very clever of the “donor community” to invent a DeSantis and to give him all the gay + trans stuff to have like a chew toy.
The regime really doesn’t care about those issues at all. But a lot of Trump voters do care about them. So it was a perfect opportunity to give the bitter clingers something to cheer for while electing a guy perfectly aligned with actual GOP donor priorities.
