Ron DeSantis Is Preparing “Off Ramp” — What Does That Mean for Donald Trump?
TLD ^ | 1/21/23 | J.D. Rucker

Posted on 01/21/2024 6:28:46 AM PST by Duke C.

Nikki Haley said after the Iowa Caucuses that it was a “two-person race” now. She was ridiculed because she finished third, though at the time the speech was written she was still projected to finish second. Nonetheless, she may be right.

Reports and rumors are flying around social media after the campaign site of Ron DeSantis scrubbed all future events. The campaign also canceled scheduled interviews on corporate media for Sunday.

In short, it means that Trump can transition to campaigning and holding rallies.

Catch the hilarious New York Slimes quote—repeated around here a few times—that DeSantis is ignoring New Hampshire.

He spent $50 million dollars there—more than Donald Trump:

This is hilarious spinning—spend a fortune in a tiny state—then fail to gain significant support—then claim you “skipped” the state.

Lol.

She is right, it’s always been Trump versus Biden.

I’m sure he’s been doing that as well. However, now he can prepare to do that full time.

I’m just saying that is how politicians do things. Until they get the nomination, they spend some of the time trying to convince people to give them the nomination. Once they have it, they shift into campaigning.

Trump is an exception to the usual politics.

Since DeSantis cancelled his scheduled Sunday Press meetings today, it appears that Ron is giving Nikki his 5% of the New Hampshire vote to her.

DeSantis screwed himself out of a very good chance in 2028 by even running this time....

Who cares about (to you MSM) Trump as he’ll do just fine and run away with the nomination and the Presidency. The great news is that RDS is finally out of the race and a bitch-slap to the GOPe and the MSM. One can hope Haley will get spanked in SC and go back to the defense contractors and buy a house next to the Hussein’s on Martha’s Vineyard where the tramp belongs.

It means Ron knows it’s over for him this time.

Desantis fell for the line of bull from NeverTrumper RINO campaign contributors, who really just wanted him to leave the governor's mansion -- and if possible knock Trump out of the race. Ron may be reelected, but he'll only make it with an endorsement from Donald Trump. If not, he could start driving for Lyft, he's already got the shoes.
Rimshot!

Maybe DeSantis was given an offer to be Trump’s VP?

“””Ron may be reelected,”””


Florida has term limits. Ron is done in 2026.

Doubtful. I would be watching someone like Liz Stefanic, or Governor Sarah Huckabee.

Florida needs DeSantis. And thats where he needs to stay until 2028.

Is he going to try to salvage what is left of his career? Quit wasting our time Ron.

The only thing taking President Trump from full time campaigning is the lawfare. Its election interference. I don’t know if you watch his rallies.

I said Trump was an exception. Typically, a politician will secure the nomination before campaigning. However, now that DeSantis and Nikki are out of the way, he can do more of that than before.

I don’t watch his rallies, because I don’t have a way to watch them in my country except through the internet. When he’s holding the rallies, I’m usually at work.
