This is so sad. I love what DeSantis has done in Florida, but his presidential campaign was ridiculous from the very beginning. I’m not surprised that the head of his campaign wasted hours on a puzzle instead of working.
If he’d gotten on the Trump train instead of blowing 130 million on his vanity campaign, he’d be riding high. He might have even gotten the VP spot, or been in a great position for 2028. It’s all gone now.

2024 is Trump's revenge tour. I get it. This is want the base wants.
But it's good that people are challenging Trump. This is not a coronation.

On a serious note, we have multiple wars going, porous border, metros crumbling, peak inflation, manufacturing down, trillions in debt......
and the team to elect the next leader of the free world is doing children's puzzles.

I thought Ted Cruz was good at political suicide until Ron DeDumazz came along. 😏

I agree 100% that DeSantis staying in Florida (where he has a job) and supporting Trump in 2024 from the beginning would have set DeSantis up nicely for 2028 at a minimum - if not a shot at the VP slot this year.
However, he was apparently convinced by the RINO Bush wing of the party that Trump was going to end up in jail or otherwise disqualified so he should run now so he would be in position for the nomination.
Ironically, should the above happen (much less likely now) and Trump was removed from the ticket by hook or crook, the Trump supporters DeSantis alienated will never come around to him due to the horrible manner he ran his campaign.

DeSantis certainly jumped the gun. Bad judgment call.

What is puzzling? The voters see Trump as a dynamic economic and political genius and he has the record to prove it.

Look at the picture I posted below my post.
I was making a play on words based on the DeSantis campaign team literally doing jigsaw puzzles at campaign HQ.

Good thread and good post.
I just want to remind you of the full context.
The puzzle guy is in a SuperPac that technically is not supposed to be affiliated with the campaign.
If it is affiliated that is a violation of Federal Election Laws.
Yeah.
Nasty stuff.
DeSantis has really dug himself a deep hole here—and I don’t think the Ground Hog can save him.

Interesting! If you look at the photo closely, it clearly resembles a DeSantis HQ. One of the workers has a DeSantis sticker on his laptop. On the whiteboard in the background, there is a listing of DeSantis precinct captains. On the wall is clearly a large DeSantis sign.
So this puzzle guy was definitely affiliated with the campaign.
