Trump Plans to Make Ron DeSantis a ‘Political Eunuch’
Rolling Stone ^ | FEBRUARY 8, 2024 10:00AM EST | ASAWIN SUEBSAENG AND ADAM RAWNSLEY

After a year of getting roundly humiliated by Donald Trump and failing to unseat him as the leader of the Republican Party, Ron DeSantis finally dropped out of the race and endorsed Trump’s bid to reclaim the White House. But while the former president publicly retired his “DeSanctimonious” nickname, Trump has privately made clear over the past two weeks that he’s not ready to let go of his grudge against the Florida governor and former ally.

One of the sources, who has spoken to the ex-president about this topic recently, bluntly characterizes Trump’s attitude on DeSantis’ future as wanting to turn “Ron into a political eunuch” who never gets to be president, much less lead his party. In months past, as Rolling Stone previously reported, Trump privately insisted that if DeSantis truly wishes to earn his forgiveness, the Florida governor would have to “kiss my ass, a lot.”

For now, it appears that the adequate ass kissing has yet to begin.

"Rolling Stone LOL, LOL, LOL, I wouldn’t put this rag into a bird cage utter BS!!"

The same rag that had to airbrush a bulge on Al Gore's crotch on their magazine cover in 2000.

Yes. That, plus calling anyone who supports Trump a “Trump cultist”.

He forgives.

Ted Cruz did him big-time dirty by preposterously (and self-servingly) laying the blame on Trump for the violence committed by anarchist and communist mobs during the 2020 primary season.

Trump could, justifiably, still have it in for Cruz for that cheapest of shots. Yet, no...smooth sailing between Trump and Cruz.

Now, Chris Christie? He’s signaled he has no interest in reconciling with Trump. So Trump will, once again justifiably, continue to take small- to medium-sized pieces out of Christie’s hide as appropriate opportunities to do so arise.

And don’t forget Cruz’s refusal to endorse Trump during that infamous speech of his at the 2016 Republican convention.

Only idiotic tools would be OK with this. Ron made a dumb mistake. Should have waited until 2028. But he’s done now, will learn, and will hopefully run again.
How can any of you DeSantis haters out there argue with what he’s done in Florida?

2028 is a heck of a long time from now. Quite a few will be dead due to old age. You are right about no voting unless you registered democrat.

Easy.

They don't want a conservative for president and they don't want conservative governors successfully executing conservative policy at the state level because it makes Trump look bad.

We can’t afford elevator shoes or Bud Lights as the national debt is 34.2 trillion & finances are tight.

One thing that is certainly true, is that a year from now ASAWIN SUEBSAENG and ADAM RAWNSLEY will be receiving pain.

Agonizing, torturous, never ending pain. Their propaganda days on this earth are coming to an end. /spit

Rolling Stone up to some political division on the right. I am sure that Trump consults with Rolling Stone to tell them his inside plans everyday. /s

Nothing from Rolling Stone should be posted on a news forum.

“LOL, you fall for the Rolling Stone fairy tales/lies. how special”.

In case nobody’s noticed, Rolling Stone, Yahoo, and The New York Times have turned up the rhetoric. Even my searches at Google show the insidious extent of domestic propaganda.
