Did DeSantis mention Trump in this speech at all? If not, then that’s another red flag.
No, he did not say “President Trump” nor “Trump”.
FWIW, he did talk about the raid, and Russia gate though.
How can he talk about the raid and not mention the person
who it happened to? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm!
Traitor to the person who brought him over the finish
line in the governor race and his name is Donald Trump.
People like him make my skin crawl.
He didn’t really talk about the raid. He just mentioned it once about 40 minutes into the speech and asked why Hillary’s home in Chappaqua wasn’t raided.
It is sounding somewhat like Trump’s famous snake tale.
“If you look at DeSantis university background & club affiliation he punches all the RINO tickets. I am very suspicious of these events that are promoting DeSantis as some kind of Trump-lite. Why do this now when the law fare arm of the administrative state has just launched its most intrusive assault to date on Trump?
It is disloyal, rude, and dismissive of all the man has endured for us.
I am pissed!
I think he will be Trump heavy when it comes to a lot of policy. I would look at his actions as governor of FL.
Great in FL policies, but no foreign policy nor domestic or foreign trade policy experience that I recall.
Neither did Ronald Reagan. Your point is nonsense.
He also has no experience as an astronaut.
“Your point is nonsense”.
Mirror gazing inspired reaction?
stick with the maincoons big guy. DeSantis is doing fine.
As long as the “big guy”, sticks with his state, Florida, ” DeSantis is doing fine”, especially considering the alternatives for governor.
I listened to him last night and found him pompous and all he ended up talking about. was what Trump had already accomplished or it was in Trump’s future plans…
When I first saw and listened to Trump I intuitively knew, that he was genuine; on the other hand when I first saw and listened to DeSantis I also knew intuitively that he wasn’t legitimate.
And that DeSantis had no new ideas, except for regurgitating Trumps accomplished lists, proving, Ron is not a leader, but he is someone who can be easily lead…
DeSantis spoke more to try to convince his audience, that if Trump was not available in 2024, then he would be the person to be available, I would be capable to continue Trump’s dream…
No background in economics. No business experience. During his 43 years on earth, only had government jobs.
Rons definitely the best choice for Florida’s governor right now.
Is Ron the best choice to replace President Trump as Establishment Conservative media keeps telling us? NOPE.
If the Swamp demons prevent President Trump from running the Establishment plans to insert Ron.
My counter, that I’m trying to spread far and wide?
If President Trump is prevented from running in 2024, its more important than ever that Ron stays in Florida to protect his state. Fortunately, if worse comes to worse, President Trumps very MAGA son can step in to finish his dads mission in DC with the help of his dads hand picked team and, hopefully, with his dads help. 😘
SUMMARY/rough draft:
Action: Don is “removed” by DC.
Reaction: Ron remains governor of Florida to protect his state from DC tyranny and to focus on countering DC tyranny via governor/state power.
MAGA Don Jr goes to DC to finish his dads mission with the help of his dads team and hopefully his dad.
Agreed.
NO, NO, NO! DeSantis, is doing what he is doing because Trump breathes down his neck! With Trump out of the picture DeSantis reverts to scumbag!
He’s copying to steal the Trump base, and by the looks of it many morons are falling for it!
This is why I’m so happy this is happening now, so far in advance of the 2024 primaries. It won’t be long til the rest of the ultra MAGA people are enlightened.
This is what the RATS do … identify potential competition and neuter it:
•Gingrich sat on a bench with Pelosi for a global warming commercial
•Jeb put a medal around Hillary’s neck
•Rubio agreed to a Gang of Eight position on illegals
•Jindal agreed to give the HORRIBLY WRITTEN Republican response to Obama SofU
•Cruz … “follow your conscience”
etc.
So you support the man who brought us Operation Warped Greed? Ohhh-Kayyy.
Do I support the man who made therapeutics, monoclonal therapies and Right to Try experimental “vaccines” available in 10 MONTHS rather than the 10 YEARS the NWO said it would take?
Absolutely!!!!
Globalists were blind sided when Trums astonishing Operation Warp Speed ended their stated reason for maintaining LOCK DOWNs in 10 MONTHS.
Ending the NWOs justification for lock downs in 10 MONTHs gave humanity a fighting chance to see, resist and ultimately defeat the NWO psychopaths.
You Tube. Movie. Hunt for Red October. Scene. Combat tactics, Mr Ryan.
Our inescapable torpedoes == vaccines.
The key to survival == Accelerate to Warp Speed
Why accelerate? So the torpedo jabs hit before they were “fully operational”.
I was there tonight. The audience was Trump people. It was like a Trump rally getting inside. The lines wrapped down one block, around the corner for another block, across the street and onto the next block an hour and a half before the event. Vendors walking up and down selling the same Trump gear as usual. People happy and loving it.
During the event nearly every speaker mentioned Trump and the raid. Desantis talked about the raid and the Russiagate setup. Kari Lake talked about Trump and her first meeting with him a year ago, and that they talk often now, and how she is honored to be called “Trump in a skirt” and now “Desantis of the West”. Charlie Kirk actually said he thinks Trump will be running again in 2024, and the video segments shown during speaker introductions were MAGA and America First with plenty of Trump mixed in.
I went into this with all Sundance has said on my mind, mostly listening for clues. I will say nothing I heard jibed with DeSantis being someone we shouldn’t trust.
Thank You for that comment and your observations at the event.
I swear, people who post here have gone nuts.
DeSantis is on the Gov. ballot here (the ONLY Repub) and people are voting Right. Now. for the FL. Primary August 23.
He will serve as FL. Gov.- God willing- until 2026.
If he runs for Prez in ’28, so be it.
This *speculation* BS here lately re. DeSantis is foolish.
I am GLAD he went to AZ. to support the (potentially) ONE other Gov. in the US who may have the interests of the Americans in her State at heart.
Florida should ban all federal officials from entering Florida (All Sheriffs have the Constitutional authority to eject or arrest any Federal Officer in the State of Florida) without a state trooper and Sheriff escort and all Federal search warrants should be examined by the Florida Governor for rejection or approval. So, what happened? No, wimpy DeSantis just sent out a Tweet Tweet. What happened to his
Fire and Brimstone speeches? MAGA Candidates have already received the highest endorsement by
President Trump. DeSantis need s to stick his nose in Florida NOT other States. He was elected to
serve the State of Florida. He’s getting way to ahead of himself. I’m happy his poll numbers went down
this week.
Building a coalition to push back against DC is my take. Or maybe you prefer communications that can be intercepted by the Feds rather than face to face in a secure room???
Florida has a lot of assets- except one big one- energy to fuel the State. It’s important for a coalition to be built so that Florida can get the resources she needs for the long fight ahead.

Many posters do not understand
FED jurisdiction extends 100 miles from any UNITED STATES border
So
100 miles inland
From any Florida Coast
Is deeply intertwined
With FED jurisdiction
Sheriff’s and The Governor can reject Eff Bee Eye
And
I don’t like De Santos silence
Nor am I saying wait it out
But
America is well into a Revolution
And
A financial secession from a UNION that is Malfesent as well as a fiduciary failure
So,
I am sure there is much going on
That the average arm chair governor
Cannot see
I am praying for anyone seeking Rightousness
And
Fighting the cabal
Ocean border, Canadian / Mexican border. I believe it now also includes a 100 mile ring around every international airport (ports of entry)
Approximately 80% of US citizens (and illegals) live within these areas.
Here’s a visualization from the ACLU … I guess when illegals are involved they still care about our rights.
It also extends 200 nautical miles offshore (EEZ). Only problem is this Border Zone is not enforced by the Feds, they don’t have the resources.
Jurisdiction is relevant and subject to their jurisdictional powers granted to them under law. The constitution is not superseded by additional federal law. If you believe federal government supersedes states government then you don’t understand the us constitution. The US Constitution outlines the limited powers of the federal government and relegates all other powers to the states meaning the federal government cannot invent new powers outside of the the US constitution.
So for example, if the US coast guard were to serve this warrant to Mar-a-lago, it would have to be relevant to the powers and the function of the coast guard.
As a nation, we have gone well away from the US Constitution and have accepted authority and powers which they do not have. It’s time to ensure the powers asserted against us are all fully legal and many/most are NOT.
Florida banned off-shore drilling. We have plenty of fossil fuel, we just lack the will to dirty up our beaches to get to it or the moxie to slant into it from land.
Not a problem. Two nuke plants and a NG pipe that connects directly to LA/TX. No refineries, no coal plants.
He needs to stay in his own lane.
Except Trump lives in a county with a DEMOCRAT sheriff. Rick Bradshaw. He has complained about protection for Trump since he became POTUS. Especially from a financial perspective. He’s not going to do anything to help Trump.
Saying stuff and doing stuff are two completely different things, the former of which amounts to literal doodly squat.
I live in the Free State of Florida, he’s Golden to me.
Make no mistake, we love DeSantis out here. What we don’t know yet is how the donors will ‘steer’ him.
With Trump we know the answer. Hopefully Trump runs as a term limited destruction machine paving the way for VP DeSantis.
We know how he is steered, no need to guess. Seems everyone forgets his time in Congress voting for the GOP and RNC.
Brown and Brown, CFR, Chamber of Commerce, Club for Growth, Koch Brothers to name a few of his long term doners.
The Republican fan club is disgustingly apathetic, loves amnesia, suffers from a lack of principles and acts like a battered spouse in an abusive relationship.
If you put that man back in DC you already have your answers.
VP DeSantis = VP Bush Sr = VP Pence.
These VPs would be/were the Swamps POTUS Compliance Insurance. One of many.
That’s why Establishment Cons are pushing their De Santis 2024 psyops AND Trump/DeSantis 2024 psyops.
Oviously, the most MAGA move is to have Ron remain governor of the politically powerful state of Florida; especially since MAGA is based on decreasing DC bureaucrat/fed power and dramatically revitalizing people/state power.
The tone here is unreal. FL needs to keep RD as GOV.
PDJT votes in FL any bets on which circle he’ll fill in next to GOV.
Ron serving as Florida’s governor =/= Ron going to DC to be VPOTUS or POTUS.
Conflating the two creates confusion, unwarranted division and can trigger unnecessary emotional poison.
This confusion, division and poisoning is being fuelled by Establishment psyops then spread by good hearted friendlies who aren’t yet psywar savvy enough to realize how they’re being used by cynical Swamp demons.
I do agree that DeSantis has made some impressive moves as governor. I just don’t want him promoted for president 2024. I don’t want the feds to read “the base“ is deserting Trump.
I feel that it is dismissive of his long five years of abuse by “our” government. He has battle scars. He has proven himself over and over. I will not even speculate that anyone else could have my vote for 2024.
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2022/08/it_would_be_foolish_of_conservatives_not_to_support_trump_in_2024.html
Excellent statement! I feel the same.
Look at the divisiveness DeSan has caused by his very questionable actions this week. Looks like, smells like….the same ol’ GOPe splitter strategy.
Fool me once….
DeSantis has said publicly that if Trump runs he will not. I have known Ron DeSantis since he was my US House Rep (New Smyrna Beach). He is as solid as solid gets. Navy guy (Jag Corp), born and raised Floridian.
I trust Desantis, too.
In addition to my trust, I believe Desantis believes in self preservation. The polls show that Trump would beat Desantis badly. Desantis does not like to lose.
Desantis has enough on his hands getting reelected in Fla. It would be difficult to turn around and start a new campaign. If he did he would risk alienating Florida voters. I could only see DeSantis entering 2024 if Trump decides not to run.
Desantis has a right to gain some national exposure to be a leader amongst governors and look to 2028.
Desantis is not presenting himself as a 2024 candidate. The media Rino’s etc are doing that.
I don’t think he will be tempted.
If he has enough on his hands getting reelected why is he campaigning for FL govrtnorship i AZ, PA & OH?
He is by far the most popular governor in America (not just with Florida residents).
Kari Lake MUST win in AZ and by huge margins to overcome the cheating. Trump already endorsed her, which helped her win the primary. DeSantis going there for that TPUSA event adds even more people to her side (younger people from TPUSA and every conservative in AZ who is sick and tired of their RINO governor and would give anything to have DeSantis as their governor).
I live in Indiana and feel the same. We are governed entirely by RINOs (governor and legislature). Every conservative I know here voted for the libertarian candidate in 2020. Our governor was #8 on that list of China’s most favored governors that Pompeo gave to them publicly at their conference. Our RINO legislature of course did no audit.
My point is, we have something similar to battered wife syndrome after years of this crap, and when we see a governor making all of the right moves for the people of his state and being the ONE AND ONLY truly conservative governor in the country, of course it would benefit any candidate in the country to have him speak at an event for them and endorse them!
An earlier comment said he’d go back to catering to donors he took money from while in Congress. If America First conservatives have learned anything in the past six years, it’s that money doesn’t matter like it used to. All of these primaries being won by Trump-endorsed candidates have been wildly outspent by their opponents. DeSantis knows this; he’s not stupid. He’s going about it just like Trump went about it – by his actions he gained more and more support from we, the people.
All you say it true EXCEPT you don’t acknowledge what everyone is on the table: his lack of supporting 45 during the RAID in HIS state, downplaying it totally. I’m not going to restate what the obvious red flags actions. You have ignored what has blatantly been there to see.
He didn’t cause it. Someone else did. Conservatives always eat their own. Which is why they lose.
Exactly.
In 2024, for me, if not Don then ONLY Don Jr.
As an homage to Red Fox, my tongue in cheek motto now is “Like Father Like Son” or close enough. No one but Don Jr. comes close at all.
Hopefully a strong “if not Don then Don Jr” pushback will thwart the Swamp schemers plotting to remove Don and insert Ron.
Remove Don. Get his son, Don.
Plus All of Dons Men and Women who will be Nuclear MAGA.
Totally nuts.
We need to focus upon now because now is the fight for our lives.
I few days ago I would have been in complete agreement with you. Then I saw the desantis’ clip with Hannity. He was very adamant That the raid was not a raid, it was a lawful servicing of a warrant. Argued that the fbi was not the Gestapo. Told me all I needed to know.
Omg. That was a Flippin fake. If you fell for that then you’re either a plant or you’re ignorant and easily led. They took a press conference of DeSantis and doctored it. Did you not even notice that the quality of DeSantis clip was off and he was speaking during the daytime and not even to the camera? Also if you didn’t notice Hannity spazzing when he wasn’t talking then you’re hopeless.
Devilspeak – apt name for minion of the Father of Lies .. “raid was not a raid”
The clip had been digitally manipulated to create the false impression that DeSantis expressed approval of the execution of the search warrant. He did not.
The video clip, as originally shared on Twitter by its creator, Timothy Burke, ostensibly documented a segment of Fox News’ “Hannity” show on which both DeSantis and Lara Trump were guests.
Twitter has yet to ban the account’s holder who admitted to creating the fake video. He deleted his tweet
Aug 12
Replying to @bubbaprog
i do not need to be informed. i made it. https://twitter.com/Ethanhamm/status/1558285484073160705
This Tweet was deleted by the Tweet author.
Uncharacteristically, Sean Hannity rushed to demand that Twitter delete the fake video. “This never happened!!” Hannity tweeted. “Twitter needs to step in and remove this immediately!!”
WARNING IF YOU SEE THIS ON TWITTER IT IS EDITED FAKE NEWS. This never happened!! They spliced in comments the Governor made years ago. Twitter needs to step in and remove this immediately!!
As of this writing, the video has not been removed.
Yep I fell for it, did not watch closely enough to see it was faked.
So my opinion goes back to, not really paying much attention to desantis because he is not a problem.
Btw, look up what the devil’s dictionary was. Very funny.
wow. I gotta admit tho, that was a pretty good Fake.
Ha!
Maybe this Fake Twit could actually get some Dem voters in FL. to Vote DeSantis this week and next!
You can hear the edits even if you don’t know it has been faked.
DeSantis was referring to a different case entirely there. Can’t remember the woman’s name right now.
He was NOT referring to the Mar-A-Lago raid.
OMG. Did Hannity really portray that as hime referring to the M-A-L raid?
I know Hannity sucks, but I really hope you heard it wrong.
Watching an obviously fake video told you all you need to know? Not gonna do any research yourself, just gonna roll with the fake vid and vote?
IMHO, we have been burned one too many times and people are paranoid. I am….
Maybe people need to just get off their Fantasy Flight re. DeSantis running for Prez in 2024.
I am not paranoid At. All. about the job he will be doing as Gov. of FL. thru 2026.
Sundance knows all these political tricks better than anyone – I choose to believe him.
Conflating young Ron, A relatively untested unknown, with the very well known Establishment Swamp demons tempting him clearly does create confusion and triggers emotional reactions.
This conflation, confusion and emotional poisoning is what Establishment schemers need and is hyped by their media models their and their more covert 24/7 psyop campaigns.
Young Ron is the prey. Establishment Cons are the predator.
Fighting to remain unaware of young Rons vulnerability and peril is a profoundly dangerous decision which is why Establishment psyops encourage making that choice.
Rather than ignoring/denying the GRAVE danger Rons in, instead consider praying for the kid.
Then perhaps push back on those who want a 43 year old to leave his home so he can battle the DC and Global Swamp demons.
Instead encourage the idea that Ron must remain in Florida, his home and his state, as its governor, which can inspire other young people to remain focused on their homes and their states.
Or don’t. 😘
I don’t think DeSantis is prey. I think he’s choosing to be with the anti-Trumpers.
I will grant it might not be a wholly heartfelt or even willing choice.
I agree. People are so quick to judge. His actions speak volumes.
Yea, and his actions were silent for six days. Why?
He was dealing w/ State business.
Why the f*ck should he get involved w/ Fed. crap?
He made a great statement- VERY similar to Trump’s I might add- w/in an hour after the raid and then put his Attention back where it NEEDS to be >>>on State of FL. business.
What’s more important than the corrupt FBI raiding a former President’s home? In his state? And all he did was issue a flaccid tweet from his personal twitter account.
Trump got DeSantis elected and DeSantis has inherited many of Trump’s supporters. You’d think he’d be more grateful. Well I DEMAND it. I have no tolerance for ingrates.
Why, did you think he would out himself again as double crossing President Trump?
Of course, he said all the right things.
However, his big mistake to those who pay attention, is that he never mentioned
President Trump. A true tell.
Thank you for this detailed report. I like DeSantis, for FL. He’s on my short leash outside of FL as he is isn’t campaigning for FL gov race inAZ, PA or Oh.
That was helpful.
That is not unusual early in the game – we’re not far enough along to make a determination. Remember how we have been snookered by the RINOs.
“Nothing I heard jibes with De Santis being someone we shouldn’t trust”.
Even if not a believer, perhaps consider the bibles warning to, “only TRUST God.
If not a believer that would mean adopting Trumps motto since the 8s;” don’t TRUST anyone”.
Rather than using the word trust, when dealing with humans, including myself, I have varying degrees of CONFIDENCE that I can accurately GUESS how they will behave in the future.
Rather than guessing about how Ron will respond to the Swamp demons temptations, I am praying for Ron.
My prayers are inspired by knowing that Ron is an ambitious 43 year young career politician, who the never trump, MAGA despising Establishment CONservative media started hyping.
I don’t need to have confidence in Ron. In fact, not having confidence in the kids ability to withstand Swamp demon temptations inspires my prayers for him and his very young family.
Let me said it simply, Ron DeSantis is not a MEGA Republican, never was and never will be…
Yeah, because him campaigning for TRUMP BACKED CANDIDATES just isn’t enough for some people.(insert roll eyes emoticon here.)
Well he was allegedly in Nantucket last Wednesday. Was he meeting with 2024 big donors? Ed Henry on American Sunrise (RAV) thinks maybe that’s why he was there, because his constituents sure are not.
Did he drop off a bus loads of illegals into Nantucket like he said he would do?
The guy he was raising funds with is all over the board politically speaking. His donations are searchable on FEC. Long history of donations. He has donated to BOTH parties. Note the donation disparity between the party candidates. https://www.fec.gov/data/receipts/individual-contributions/?contributor_name=James+Pallotta
Pallotta donated only $102 to Trump in 2016, but $50k to Carly Fiorina. And in 2020 Pallotta didn’t donate to Trump at all. Very telling. DeSantis is hooking up with what appears to be a wealthy anti-Trumper.
The Trump Backed Candidates did not need DeSantis’ support, and there is no doubt about that TRUTH!
Red flag for what? He would be a far better candidate. He’s quicker on his feet, not thin -skinned with the press, sharper and he is not in his late 70s
Did you know gullible is not even in the dictionary…lol
Bull 💩
If he pushes PDJT off the 2024 ticket … I won’t vote for President in 2024 … for the first time since my 18th birthday
So you experienced the pleasure of voting for Pierre Delecto, Juan McCain, and the Bush/Cheney syndicate? I skipped past them a long time ago. Why did you bother?
Kenji, there will probably be other candidates if Trump doesn’t run. I’ve already decide if Trump doesn’t run and DeSantis does, I will not vote for DeSantis in the primary, I’ll vote for someone else.
How could anyone push President Trump off the 2024 MEGA ticket, pray tell?
Yet DeSantis is not a visionary leader.
Nor is he one who understands trade deals or has experience with international leaders.
He’s never built a company, bringing that most important perspective to the economic decisions.
I voted for Trump in part because he was / is a developer. To do that takes more than money for you must have a vision and the tenacity to get the project done despite every unexpected obstacle that comes your way.
That’s right. And not just a US developer, he has properties all over the world.
‘Thin-skinned’? You believe that forcefully rebutting the consistently persistent and aggressive slanderous lies of the press, is being ‘thin-skinned’? Strikes me as *thin-skinned* to immediately deceitfully characterize a spine as thin-skinned. ‘Quicker on his feet’? Huh? By exactly impersonating the Trump bluntly quick demeanor that has so irritated the lesser intellects of his critics? Not even going with the wildly irrelevant ageist crap…my own grandparents and parents all lived into their 90’s and early 100’s with no cognitive impairment.
There’s Victoria again parroting the Dem talking point about age. 🙂
Florida’s most famouse resident left NY for the costs, taxes etc plus whatever personal reasons he had for doing so.
Regular residents…of NY go to FL and of Chicago, to AZ. I urge caution for Kari Lake.
While big companies moves around for tax benefits…the MAL is no exception and could in theory, do the same. If DeSantis loses that venue and or resident, it will not look good for DeSantis.
You will know them by their fruits.
“Did DeSantis mention Trump in this speech at all? If not, then that’s another red flag.”
I thought this was a rally for Kerry Lake and the other GOP/MAGA candidates. This was not the venue to make Trump front and center. I think President Trump might even agree!
Trump is the leader of the GOP party. And he was just attacked again by the Dems. It’s absolutely appropriate to mention Trump at every single GOP event.
He’s running for President. Slick and touching all the kitchen table key issues. He’s a MAGA splitter, Born of the cash coming from the RNC. Is this the guy who will take aim at the forth branch?
He can run but can he win….will “they” let him win…???
Will WE let him win. The only thing he will accomplish is to split the vote and likely put another democRAT in the Whitehouse. If he really is a MAGA supporter than he needs to make it clear that is not going to happen.
How does he split the vote?
Almost certain DJT will win the Republican primary, IMO, head to head with DeSantis. Are you implying that DeSantis would run as a third party candidate (doubtful), or that his supporters would not turn out in numbers for DJT as the MAGA candidate for President (also doubtful). Are you implying that DeSantis, as an offshoot of the primary process would attack DJT in ways that would fracture the base or lead his supporters to sit on their hands in the general election?
Splitting the base is a process argument – but it relies upon a psychological assumption about voter response.
If DeSantis is a plant, that will out quickly: the big name donors will surface, his election team will be staffed and known commodities will surface, he will have to identify his policy positions, sooner or later his relationship with DJT (political and personal) will become apparent. DJT “owns” the base.
Personally, I think DJT runs and wins a head to head battle. I would vote for him in the general election. I nevertheless want a full accounting for Covid – it’s a dangerous uncertainty that has been left dangling in the open for far too long.
Clear the decks.
It is my opinion only that President Trump has earned the right
to be the only candidate for president on the repub side in 2024.
It would scare the hell out of the leftists if the republicans
banded together and made this happen.
Alas, the rinos won’t allow it and will work like hell to
make sure President Trump is not on the ballot at all.
I agree with you, “earned the right” is absolutely true after what he has been through. I also would hope that if Ron Dsantis is looking out for the long term then he would also acknowledge that President Trump should get the next 4 years while he can stay in Florida and continue gaining support and showing other governors how to run their state and then it would be his turn.
What scares the insider leftists (the ones Sundance points the finger at in Part 1) is the information resources DJT is suspected of holding vis them and operational knowledge (and, obviously, the size of the MAGA base). The argument that DJT has earned the right is a strong one and I won’t dispute that. Your response does not, however, address my question about splitting the vote. That declarative is based on certain assumptions about, let’s be honest here, any candidate who challenges DJT as well as an uncharitable notion of human behavior. It is possible to have a dignified exchange of information and beliefs; it is possible to disagree at the outset but join forces later because there is ultimately agreement on the the threat and shared principles.
Following is not directed at you:
I respect the evident allegiance/loyalty to DJT. But there are behavioral traits on this board that I detest, the same patterns I saw in play in 2008 when Plouffe was orchestrating small ‘hunter killer’ groups (or ‘swarms’ as a friend called them ) on social media generally and comment sections specifically. My tripwire is triggered when we morph into the enemy. It’s when I see people who ought to know better applying the very same tactics that Jan 6, fraudulent impeachments, etc., apply: the alignment of circumstantial evidence and anecdotal information to emotionally lever people into destructive judgements that actually fracture what should be natural coalitions (and I’m not referring to Sundance). I have led large groups. One thing I have learned is to be patient until the evidence is conclusive. Then act with clarity and decisiveness. We’ve been engaged in this fractured, passive -aggressive partitioning in the political/social sphere for so long that some folks are losing their personal compass for integrity (IMO) and adopting some of the patterns of the threat.
“they” will let him win if he’s one of them or at least will take instruction
He needs to stay East of the Mississippi.
yep, we’re different. Show me, prove it
DeSantis is campaigning for ALL who have been outspoken in claiming the 2020 election was stolen from Trump
https://www.tallahassee.com/story/news/politics/elections/2022/08/08/ron-desantis-campaigning-kari-lake-doug-mastriano-and-jd-vance-2020-stolen-election/10266112002/
The won their primaries. There’s no one else to campaign for in those states (except Dems).
Or he’s campaigning for himself and simply leveraging these other people. I mean, it would look odd if he outright held rallies in battleground states for himself, right? But how convenient that there’s an opportunity to rally in support of these other people. I noticed he’s not visiting Wyoming or Alaska though …
Indeed.
Pocketing political capital, not spending any.
good catch
DeSantis is campaigning for himself, building up a national profile with rank-and-file Republicans in other battleground states.
This is a prelude to his announcement for a presidential run after he secures office in Florida again.
Trump should announce his candidacy the day before the November election. lol
Or at least not until the very last minute allowed. One thing the GOPe and the marxists can’t stand is a last minute surprise. Messes up their 24/7 planning.
Someone has been blowing smock up DeSantis aaassssssss. And Ronnie has become addicted to the sweet marijuana illusions… Dream On Kido!
I love how the posters have DeSantis’ name and picture so large, and then there are the smaller names and pictures of the people who are supposed to be the purpose of the rallies. lol TPUSA, come on, too obvious.
America’s Governor, too! This is a campaign for 2024, or at least a beta test.
TPUSA has totally revealed itself now, if it hasn’t before. The issue to me is that they target young adults, “empowering them” and like the progressives, will push them to vote in one direction.
This is the same game with different shirts.
We really need to find a way to end that game.
Look at TPUSA’s funding sources.That should give us a clue.
I would bet $$ he was given a “heads up” and didnt bother to reach out to PDT to give him a warning. For him not to be righteously outraged about this immediately set off a LOT of alarm bells for me
I dont like Kirk–never have so DeS going on this tour is really odd to me. Isnt he running for Gov with the Election 3 months away?
That’s what I believe precisely. I bet DeSantis was given a heads up. I’ve heard negative things about Kirk, too.
Kirk came to my state and endorsed a pro-LGBTQ GOPe candidate for state house who openly bragged about quashing all legislation that stopped the Transgender indoctrination going on in our schools. This same candidate was bank-rolled by one of the crime families detailed in Peter Schweizer’s book Red-Handed. That’s all I needed to know about Kirk and who he really is.
This GOPe candidate was running against one of our best conservative legislators who is being targeted for elimination by our spineless state GOPe. Thankfully the primary voters saw thru the attempts and we were able to beat them at the ballot box.
The idea that DeSantis knew an FBI raid was coming is ludicrous. They hate DeSantis nearly as much as Trump.
but they would use him to get rid of President Trump
If replacing Trump with DeSantis gets Trump out, the Dems will be all for it. They don’t fear DeSantis.
I dont think it is too far fetched. If not, why hasnt he said PDT’s name and noted MAL is his RESIDENCE. He just keeps saying MAL ..nothing on the violation of a President’s home. I think they hate him because he has a R beside his name, that is enough for any of them to hate something. It hasnt and wouldnt be the first time an ambitious candidate sold out. I believe he is being so bland and blase about this is his re-election. We’ll see
Two things as I mull:
If DeSantis did know, wouldn’t giving Trump the heads up have been illegal and putting himself in legal jeopardy?
If DeSantis knew what was coming before the raid, why has he still not managed a stronger statement, even with the advanced warning?
If DeSantis knew what was coming before the raid, why has he still not managed a stronger statement, even with the advanced warning?
To avoid drawing attention to either his complicity or his apathy.
He isn’t defending himself as uninvolved, n’est-ce pas?
He’s lying low.
Hey Sundance, has Charlie Kirk contacted you to complain yet? 🙂
Listen to Charlie tomorrow; should be educational! LOL!!
Feels like the fix is in. DeSantis gives the impression that he feels PDJT is done for and is positioning himself for the Republican nomination. PDJT “made” DeSantis, and DeSantis turns the other way when things get tough. Not the leader America needs. Having said that, if PDJT is not going to run in 2024 for whatever reason, many in the MAGA movement will have no choice but to vote for DeSantis, but the numbers will not be as large as if Trump was running. DeSantis / Whoever is a very beatable ticket for the Democrats. It might come down to DeSantis vs Newsome in that scenario. But, in the mean time, praying for the safety of PDJT and his comeback! And, praying that PDJT will choose a running mate other than Judas DeSantis.
I think it’s too early to say that DeSantis will definitely be the nominee if Trump doesn’t run. We don’t know who else might throw their hat in. I mean, look at 2016, Jeb! was running and without Trump in the race he probably would have been the guy with the best chances, and yet there were like 6 or more other people who also ran. Also, the polls done so far that include DeSantis haven’t really included other viable candidates, have they? I saw one poll that included Don Trump Jr, and as much as I love the guy, love love love his personality and I’m sure he’s an astute businessman, I don’t really think he’s going to run for President so his inclusion in the poll was a bit odd.
Do any of you people realize talking about 2024 is ludicrous? The 2020 Election was stolen by the
Communist Regime. Our Country is in a Coup right now being run by Obama and his minions.
We haven’t reached the Midterms yet. Who knows, if Midterms will even take place. Our
Federal Government is a sham. Why would JOE be destroying our Country with inflation,
illegal aliens pouring in at the Southern Border, and now coming after the small businesses.
Do you actually think they are going to give up their illegal power? 2020 Election needs to
be rectified.
The DS is looting America like there is no tomorrow, like they know there will be no elections and a financial ‘reset’ is going to happen. The FED is stuck with no way out of it’s ponzi scheme.
Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny. —Thomas Jefferson
NWO
Exactly, Dee! Is this another distraction campaign against the MAGA universe to keep dividing us?! We have to keep the focus on the 2020 fraud and try to ensure it doesn’t happen again in 2022. We might not even get a chance in 2022, as the regime might declare martial law for some made up false flag event and postpone the election. These creatures of evil will stop at nothing to retain power. Pelosi stated months ago that they would not recognize a Republican win in 2020 – what would we do then?
We have to keep the focus on the 2020 fraud and try to ensure it doesn’t happen again in 2022.
Vote all-GOP on your November ballots, that’s the best way to ensure that Dem election fraud is minimized in 2024.
Do any of you people realize talking about 2024 is ludicrous?
You can choose to ignore it, but Trump is already alluding that he’s running, and DeSantis started his campagining-disguised-as-other-activity already.
And 2024 is HUGE.
I meant to italicize that top line, it was a quote from Dee’s comment.
I wouldn’t characterize DeSantis as a Judas, that term is largely reserved for Jeff Sessions…
DeSantis has been promised big things if he runs for president in 2024. The RINOs would love for him to snag the nomination away from Trump, but they’ll settle for DeSantis as his running mate.
Judas works fine for any RINO – anyone trying to undermine President Trump.
Watch and see how GOD handles it.
Others of His Chosen Leaders have faced challenges, We’ll see some similarities to those situations if our reading of DeSantis and DS is accurate.
Trump sails the High Winds.
Turkeys stay close to the ground.
Watch and Learn.
DeSantis is setting himself up to become the THIRD IN A ROW GOPe failed presidential candidate … McCain … Romney … DeSantis …
it will be STRIKE THREE for the GOPe … make no mistake.
Judas is Pence, Sessions is more like Barney Fife.
Exactly! Pence being #1
this MAGA gal would NOT vote for DeSINtas. Nope nada zilch zero The fact he FAILED to mention POTUS by name should be CRYSTAL clear to any MAGA who he is. You might as well vote for a Pence or Haley WAKE UP … he is undoubtadely one of the SNAKES in the poem SAD they sell out so swiftly God help us
Mo Green, I mean DeSantis needs to understand who the boss is and go to the matresses for the Don.
I don’t recall ever being gung ho about DeSantis running for President and right now, unless things change, I’m totally uninterested in him. But if I were a Florida resident I would still be happy to vote for him as Governor and I do hope voters in Florida re-elect him because 1) he has done a good job in his first term and 2) it would be a disaster I think to have a Dem in charge of Florida for 4 years when we have a Presidential election coming up in 2 years.
I concur.
Wrong.
If DeSantis cannot be trusted to bear the MAGA banner, then he cannot be trusted anywhere. A phony controlled by the Deep State is just that. Your posts have convinced me of this. I will not vote for DeSantis (guess where I live). I will work with others to unmask him and vote for other, more trustworthy candidates. There’s no room for a half arsed approach to this.
You’re not following my advice then even though you sarcastically say you are. #1 goal is to get rid of Dems. #2 goal is to get rid of RINOs/GOPEs/INGRATES. I always say #2 happens during the primaries and #1 happens during the general elections.
I just remember how Donald J. Trump honors “loyalty” and “honesty” and “truth”.
Next I remember how Donald J. Trump recognizes the need for revenge and justice.
That’s what I was thinking as I painfully sat through that whole TP USA RALLY!!!
The music sucked!
Remember when PDJT was campaigning in 2015 and he imitated a “politician” giving a speech?
That’s what I witnessed tonight and it was soooooo boring and scripted.
Wow! Massive crowd!
What a shame. Probably all of those people are Trump supporters who think DeSantis is MAGA.
Btw, for those who don’t know, Johnson is part of TPUSA.
If I lived in AZ, I would have gone to hear what they said about Trump.
I was there and all praised Trump and were disgusted by the raid, the actions of the deep state, election fraud, Zuckerbucks, Russiagate, etc. It was like a Trump rally in there, with the same Trump crowd.
If DeSantis didn’t even say his name, that is very faint “praise” indeed!
Jis’ sayin’…
I was there and all the speakers were wonderful. This America First movement is more than just Trump and a lot of these young speakers will be part of it moving forward. DeSantis was excellent, and not what I expected after reading all of Sundance’s stuff lately. I’m very curious to see if Trump and DeSantis work together going into 2024, or if they compete.
Well, you’re being blindsided then. Sundance knows what he is talking about.
That’s a Good One…. 🙂 We must get out the word. Go to the website Club for Growth and see who the person
they list first as being endorsed.
I see. They put him at the top even though in reality he’s less important that US Senators.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2022/05/16/club-for-growth-trump-barnette-oz/
David McIntosh, head of the influential conservative group the Club for Growth, used to fly on Air Force One, get personal shout-outs from Donald Trump and boast to friends about his access to the former president. Until recently, McIntosh would meet Trump at Mar-a-Lago to coordinate endorsements in Republican primaries and even urge others to leave races, and the Club for Growth backed up the decisions by spending millions of dollars on campaign ads.
Now McIntosh and Trump aren’t speaking, according to Trump advisers.
Great, more people who used Trump and are not pushing him aside. We have another battle on our hands, people. I’m glad it’s so early still.
AMEN!
We have to inform them.
Maybe the best way is for us to sit on certain twitter accounts and be the first to respond to every new tweet?
So much navel gazing has gripped our congregation here that no one even deigns mention that this rally was in support of Kari Lake and Blake Masters! Those blathering incessantly about DeSantis apparently care little about the fight we are in, and how wonderful these candidates are, and how fortunate we are to have them fighting on our side!
They also forget that Donald Trump can take care of himself. No amount of fretting on our part will allow us to return to the womb. The Big Club is what it is. Trump has been fighting them since the inception. Neither he nor we can wish them out of existence.
We can only defeat them by ceasing our navel gazing and voting for MAGA candidates, and by standing in support of all those who share our values, and I mean literally all who share our values!
Seeing DeSantis as an agent of the Big Club merely takes us back to the point at which we started. So it’s not really productive. They are who they are. If Trump wants in for 2024, he and we will battle them as always.
Sell-outs to the Big Club can’t deter or derail MAGA as long as the Trump Train continues to roar down those tracks.
We should all be focused on making that happen!
It was always about Trump and his voters against the system.
It’s very very important for voters to know who’s MAGA and who’s just pretending to be MAGA to get votes.
Thank You!!
People have really jumped the shark here, focusing on irrelevant, imaginary BS instead of the things that are actually happening NOW, right under our noses.
We love Karizona!
Blake is OK too.
I didn’t watch the rally for DeSantis. I watched it to hear her.
The speech was fine. But unless I missed it, DeSantis avoided saying Trump’s name, just like how he avoid using Trump’s name in that tweet. What is that about?
It means he sold his soul.
By avoiding even his name, he may as well have denied him thrice.
Checkmate.
And/Or sold him Once!
Seriously? Trump is not Jesus and saying something that utterly ridiculous is what’s making people complain about this site lately.
They’re men. Just men. DeSantis, Trump, and even Sundance. None of them are infallible and no one’s going to hell for not blindly following them.
I know people are scared for the future what what is up with this nonsense? It’s like a freaking cult and the right should be better than that.
Top post of the thread!
it was one of the lowest for me
difference of opinion
User name checks out. Loki= trickter
I seriously doubt if anyone here at the Treehouse are “blindly” following Trump, DeSantis, or anyone else. Most here are highly informed, and the scales have fallen from their eyes. And for most all of us … Christ is in Heaven and we are living out our lives here on earth. We all keenly understand the distinction
you can tell the ones who are not “highly informed” by their postings.
a religious point of reference is never bad
TRUMP IS THE REASON DESANTIS IS FLORIDA GOVERNOR RIGHT NOW. Without Trump’s endorsement DeSantis would have lost to Gillum. In the end DeSantis barely won.
Trump is also the reason Kari Lake won her GOP primary. I hope she’s not a turncoat too.
God actually has no name. Clint Eastwood had none in a few movies.
Not mentioning a name when it was clear you knew who you were referencing is often a sign of deference and respect or a matter of literary emphasis. Also, it is an indication that the raid violates everyone’s rights. It is crystal clear who DeSantis has been talking about. His “style” has been as good as Kari’s. I’m glad that her reputation has not been trashed by hanging around with that snake Ronnie!
There is no competition between Trump and DeSantis. That is what the MSM and the DNC wants you to believe. Thanks for taking the bait!
No one has made an allusion to anyone being Jesus. But in that vein, anything in the Bible also extrapolates to any time in history, including now…hence the observant correlation of DeSantis’ behavior to that of Judas. That is not idolatry, or a *freaking cult*. However, it can be rightfully said that making up one’s mind, while dismissing relevant events or facts, is more consistent with cult-like behavior. Cultists find it too painful to deviate from what they have convinced themselves to believe, and lash out at critics of what they hold true. Conversely, the open-mindedness of those of us willing to consider thoughtfully what we intuit and/or see about DeSantis—or anyone—is the exact antithesis of cult behavior.
Miyah made some comments:

awesome response
Because Trump will then later use it against DeSantis in debates, ads, and campaign speeches.
DeSantis is 100% running for president and his consultants have told him to keep Trump’s name out of his mouth as much as possible.
If not Don then his son Don will carry on his dads mission in DC.
While Don 1 or 2 is in DC, Ron, as Floridas governor, will protect his home and his state and inspire other you people to focus on protecting their homes and their states.
For an inspiring reminder that there’s no need to leave home in order to do great things consider watching or re watching Frank Capras iconic movie, “Its a Wonderful Life”.
Hopefully, young Ron will
reject Establishment Republican Old Man Potter’s temptations and choose to have a wonderful life like Jimmy Stewarts character, George, did.
Picturing the Greedy Old Possums as Old Man Potter!
I love it.
Ridiculous. I was there tonight, center, maybe 15th row. Packed house. The whole crowd was a Trump crowd, and every speaker was pro-Trump. Trump was in the videos before the speakers. Kirk said he thinks Trump is running again. Lake talked about Trump. DeSantis talked about the raid on Trump and what was done to him with the Russia hoax.
DeSantis is clearly doing this tour of swing states to market himself on the national stage in swing states. So what? Is the MAGA movement going to end with Trump, or are we going to grow it with younger politicians. All the speakers tonight were MAGA and were excellent.
Lol, so what? Marketing himself nationally when he should be so concerned with his reelection campaign..
Maybe he can run and chew gum at the same time. He has a clear shot through the Primary in Florida I think he is unopposed in the GOP Primary. Why shouldn’t he campaign for other MAGA candidates in other states? They still have to win their Generals and beat their Dem opponents. I am sure Kerry Lake and the other Candidates didn’t have a problem with DeSantis being at the Rally. If they did he wouldn’t have been there. DeSantis has always been a Trump supporter from his time in Washington to his MAGA policies as Florida’s Governor. Mama taught me actions speak louder than words. I’ll listen to his words and watch his actions. So far I still like what I see.
Yes, he’s the only R for Gov. on the Ballot.
And you’re right, he’s doing exactly what he should be doing right now>>>> taking care of business for Floridians, and campaigning for other , potentially Very. Good. MAGA Govs in other States.
Thank you Gov. DeSantis for not being sidetracked by Federal .gov BS. States Rule!!
“So far I like what I see”.
As intended.
Eyes Wide Shut, still?
Btw career politicians and those dependent on them don’t trigger me into flooding myself with emotional poisons.
Instead they inspire me to pray for them and to seek ways to help them to do their best.
He gives Press Briefings Every. Day. on what’s going on in FL.
Why the h*ll would he need to “campaign” here?
Seriously, you people who are flying off the handle w/ the “He’s hiding”, “he’s not doing/saying anything”, etc. ned to go check out his twit account where info is posted daily.
Now, cue the people here who will say “He uses Twitter! Must be an anti-MAGA agent!”
I’m listening to DeSentis’s speech now and so far no mention. From what I heard (and hope to confirm) only the raid was mentioned and that was used to contrast with Hillary. That’s not exactly “talking about the raid.” That’s a mention in order to attack Hillary and the DOJ/FBI.
Meanwhile, he allowed the DOJ/FBI to do what they did.
So what. DJT encouraged and mimed “Lock Her UP” chants his entire campaign in 2016. Then, of course, nothing happened. Does that render him a lying sack of feces? I think not. Campaigning is what it is.
This is all beyond silly.
Stand back and watch how it all plays out. DJT owns the MAGA base.
“DJT Encouraged and mimed ‘Lock Her UP'”?
FALSE.
DJT didn’t silence a chant created by General Flynn that rally attendees enjoyed?
TRUE
DJT “did nothing” about “her”?
FALSE
His AG appointed an Special Prosecutor to investigate “her” as promised?
TRUE
Accurately remembering the past helps protect against succumbing to psyop heart and mind infections.
MostlyRight, now many times did DeSantis say Trump’s name? Did DeSantis talk at all about the power of Trump’s endorsements and credit Trump for his own Florida Governor win and Kari Lake’s Arizona Governor GOP primary win? Did DeSantis thank Trump for the built-in crowd of fans/supporters? You admit the whole crowd was a Trump crowd. If those people learn that DeSantis is working against Trump do you think they’ll show up at future DeSantis rallies?
Those who are unaware of or deny the temptations young Ron is being subjected to and the grave danger young Ron is in are less likely to pray for the kid and they definitely wont try to help the kid by finding ways to thwart Rons temptor predators.
Kari Lake is authentic.
I really don’t think Lake or any other candidate should be using “BDE”. It’s super tacky.
I’m fairly sure a consultant told her she needs appeal with the younger demographics. Consultants feverishly believe in using trendy buzz words in connecting with voters.
Times when it is more important to be a Lady, than it is to prove you are “one of the Guys!”
Don’t go so far out of your way to imply you think you are the one who has the biggest “energy”.
I agree; I recall Sarah Palin doing the same thing a few times and
it hurt her. One must still be somewhat professional for saving
our country is serious business.
And Lake is 52 years old. Many times young people think it’s corny if not pathetic when older people adopt young people’s slang. Lake could have used “big energy” and the people who know about BDE can chuckle but she won’t offend anyone.
Real humanity despising sauron psychopaths and hordes of human orcs are burning, looting, terrorizing and murdering their way across America.
A heroic warrior woman opposes them.
Reaction:
Gratitude? Nope.
Prayers for her? Nope.
Tsking and OMG she should be more ladylike comments? Yep.
Survival instincts kick in, when?
I had to look that up. Yep, a tad crass
Well … I suppose it is an option to adhere to the polite decorum of the failed GOPe ? Or … we can play fire with fire against the Party that likes to talk about Trump’s “tiny hands”?
There are lots of terms and acronyms they could use that didn’t involve “big d*ck”.
“A tad crass”.
Thank God she’s not a miss priss but instead a warrior with a sassy mouth and swagger.
Love Karizona and her BDE. 😘
Well I was there. The crowd loved it.
Crowds are fresh and current – what matters even more is HOW IT WEARS in Time, whether a few weeks, or months…
What Scarlet said. And also, the people in the crowd aren’t the only people who will be voting. Kari Lake needs to attract most of the people who voted for her GOP opponent. I’m not sure continual references to big d*cks is the way to do it.
When I first read this morning Lake’s venture into using “BDE” my initial reaction was, and still is, that it is not needed.
Such talk, in public discourse, is how leftists live their lives – IMHO. I mean that leftists embrace such demeanor as humorous and enlightened.
I’m less than impressed.
Hopefully more and more voters still have survival instincts and threat awareness that kick in.
When a voter realizes the GRAVE danger they’re in they realize that piety policing and church lady tsk tsking anyone courageous enough to try to help them survive is neo antoinette foolish and a luxury they can’t afford if they hope to survive.
How can DeSantis have BDE if he never gave Kari Lake his endorsement during the Arizona primaries?
● And didn’t deny the FBI a BOGUS SET-UP against ANY fellow Conservative…. Especially not One More DOG PILE in a Bloody Long List.
● Didn’t give a heads up, EITHER.
● And “Doesn’t call you back”, so to speak.
That is Three, right there in a row.
Ugly, and the Lay-out is Telling!
As I look at that graphic again, I see that DeSantis is now larger and above Trump. Good job Kari, doing just what Ron did, use Trump and then push him aside like he’s finished.
She’s probably a pod person too now. Invasion of the body snatchers. Or maybe she always was one and just sucked up to Trump briefly to get his endorsement and get the GOP nomination. I don’t want a Dem as AZ Governor, especially the woman who was Secretary of State and handled the elections so badly, but I won’t cry if Lake doesn’t win.
She got a lot of media attention….
When she made comment…if Governor Ducey even had one ball….
That’s what she is referring to.
She’s up There high enough now that she can afford to spend some thought on a more Lady affirming way to accomplish the same goal.
I’ve seen a Lady do such things and they are always much more hugely appreciated by the Audience, when SHE can remain more feminine and still Make Her Point very well.
THEN the Crowds really roar!
And makes the Tomboys go home and put on a pretty Dress.
In today’s world there is no such thing as “acting like a lady”
how sexist and archaic
she is not Nancy Reagan
What’s BDE? Please don’t tell me it’s the vulgar expression I just discovered.
Yes it is, unfortunately. I guess they’re trying to appeal to young people. It’s so crass.
Doesn’t anyone like my more accurate poster? 🙂
“Some other people”!
Sorry I missed that the first time around.
Yes, very much afterthought looking billing.
But where’s the ‘America’s Governor’ banner? /s
Duly noted. That will be on the next posters. lol
I was there. Every seat had a poster to wave for Lake and Masters. Merchandise outside was Trump stuff, anti-Biden stuff, and Kari Lake and Blake Masters stuff. DeSantis is the headliner of these TPUSA events, of course he was on the posters. The big cheers all night were for Trump, Masters, Lake and DeSantis.
Suddenly DeSantis is headliner-worthy. 🙂
President Trump / MAGA are the 24K gold standard for America First.
However, it never fails, the GOPe 4th rate actors appear on the scene with their cheap knockoffs made with brass and covered with a thin layer of 6K gold thinking they can fool the unsuspecting MAGAs.
Oh, they can fool some MAGAs until they start turning people’s fingers green. Desantis and kirk found that out this week.
I’m glad we still have a lot of time before presidential primary season.
Right now it feels like only a small minority of us realize that there is a coordinated effort on all sides to replace Trump with someone else.
Correct. The average Fox News viewer right now believes DeSantis is some kind of wunderkid, a purely unsullied politician with no ulterior motives. The corporate conservative press has been carefully building that image since 2020.
The plan was always to run a MAGA-lite Trump clone against Trump himself.
Lol, if Desantis is wise, he should avoid running against Trump in the primary. If he does, Trump will get him unmasked as another RNC’s puppet.
On another CT article about DeSantis being co-opted by the UniParty, a poster listed a link to an American Thinker blog article by Susan D. Harris. I suggest sharing it with as many people as you can. This link is from the author’s website itself. https://susandharris.com/dont-abandon-trump-because-you-have-a-desantis-in-your-back-pocket/ Remind people how many Tea Party candidates we helped win only to have them dive into the swamp the day they set foot in DC.
I read that.
It’s a good article.
That is why Sundance asks us to share his stellar research as widely as possible.
We MUST see and accept things as they are, as painful as that is sometimes, rather than as we want them to be.
Does DeSantis believe that if he says “Trump” his tongue will catch fire?
Seems that way.
Just following orders…
My intuition is pulling me toward a different thing going on here. I think all the cards between PDJT and DeSantis are not on the table, a purposeful strategy, and they both want everyone guessing, filling in the blanks.
Florida has hosted numerous TP USA events, with PDJT and DeSantis both involved or present at the Tampa event.
DeSantis has proven to be the greatest state governor of our time. He has integrity, courage and he cares for the people in his state.
I will vote for him in any capacity he runs for national office. I’m not going to use “management by exception” to make my decisions but base my decisions of his complete portfolio. PDJT and the governor of Florida are in complete control of their plan, no worries 🇺🇸
I think all the cards between PDJT and DeSantis are not on the table, a purposeful strategy, and they both want everyone guessing, filling in the blanks.
That’s 3D chess thinking. Don’t do it. Employ Occam’s Razor.
Yup, ol’ Occam it is.
Not going to dismiss that. It’s possible to believe two exclusive things are possible. I will never again consign belief to politics. It is not a religion. It is a bunch of things which are largely unworthy of trust or belief.
I have said the same thing about Pence. Either he is completely ignorant of the effect of his endorsement (that is to say stupid and arrogant) or he is aware of it and is intentionally destroying the chances of RINOs. Either of these can be true, but I have resigned myself to hoping he continues supporting RINOs because the results are desirable regardless of motive/purpose/intent.
But as this type of thinking applies to DeSantis? I’m not in favor of this line of ambiguity. To deceive the base and confuse the base is to weaken the base and this does NOT serve any desirable result.
I think you are right. Otherwise after Trump what’s next. If there isn’t anyone to pick up the MAGA flag the “Movement” dies just like what happened to the Tea Party. And Mitch wins again!
Unless Sundance or one of the brilliant thinkers on here want to pick up the flag and run with it? No? I didn’t think so!
The only reason we think he is “the greatest governor of our time”……
is because the spotlight is intentionally on him.
Perhaps other Treepers would share with us how great their governor is and why? We could do a more accurate comparison.
I’ve started to notice that almost every event Trump goes to, DeSantis is there as well…I mean it’s starting to get uncomfortable. Work your own crowd, Ron. I mean, these two are running for office, and yet their names are in such a tiny font. Kirk is being pushed by the same big money pushing DeSantis. Sad.
Yes DeSantis is making his own bed and will eventually have to live with the outcome of it. Why he wants to start sailing his ship under really strange and difficult times is beyond my ken. My feeling is that because of his bad timing, this dog will never be in the hunt for national office.
Think he is an idiot to put himself out there if he isn’t going to fight for President Trump, or fight to heal the wounds inflicted on our Nation visa/vie the wounding and hunting of our President. Just seems he is clueless in reading the forking thermometer re the temperature of the people.
Consult an astrologer before you make another move DeSantis. You are working under bad signs. So naive.
Pence=DeSantis in my mind. Clueless.
Methinks he isn’t doing all his own thinking right now.
Bullseye 🎯

It’s like … All About Eve!

I never can think of Judas Iscariot without losing my temper. To my mind Judas Iscariot was nothing but a low, mean, premature,
congressmanRon DeSantis.– “Mark Twain”
Merak Garland is not losing Ron Desantis as he has him not even mention Trump’s name anymore
DeSantis opens his remarks without referring to or mentioning the biggest political earthquake in history, the raid of a former President’s home that just happens to be in the state which he is governor.
Talks about all his accomplishments. I actually found it to be boring, but most of all rude and disloyal to the guy who helped him get to where he is now.
I don’t like disloyal and I sure as hell don’t like the usual restrained poll tested politician with milk toast remarks.
I want a real man, a real person, a genuine person who can’t be bought by the highest bidder. That man is Donald John Trump.
I am so disappointed in Ron DeSantis. He’s a great governor and I thought he was the real deal. I never thought he could be bought and sold by the Washington establishment. Guess I was wrong.
I’ve learned a lot about the GOP since President Trump was elected. So many people I trusted and believed were the real deal turned out to be a total lying corrupt POS.
It’s hard to finally realize that a whole lot of those “conservatives” weren’t conservative at all. They said what they had to say to get elected and did nothing. Or they did exactly the opposite….compromise you know,,,working with the other side..crossing the aisle..
I no longer trust Gov. DeSantis now.
Retired Magistrate here: DeSantis is mimicking President Trump. Whenever President Trump does a rally for local candidates he always starts out with his accomplishments while in office. DeSantis is doing the same thing. However, this rally was not about making America Great Again, it was all about DeSantis.
DeSantis is running; this was a trial “stump” speech and will be used to split the ticket when/if President Trump announces he is running. I think President Trump will announce after the Wyoming Primary.
Oh look, DeSantis was in New Mexico too today. I don’t think this was a TPUSA event (I don’t see any big Turning Point logos). https://www.kob.com/new-mexico/florida-gov-ron-desantis-attends-new-mexico-rally/
He was there to support Republican candidate for Governor Mark Ronchetti. Axios says this:
Ronchetti has kept his distance from Trump, who is deeply unpopular in New Mexico, but is betting DeSantis will be a more popular surrogate.
So Ronichetti is another one of *them*, it appears.
Eventually all the establishment sheep show their true colors. Sometimes it just takes a little longer to see the sell-outs.
So the DeSantis brand is Not Trump Lite?
👉 To become subservient to the GOPe is to become anti-Trump while mouthing enough “Conservative” jibberish to try and sound MAGA 👈
✅️It’s truly amazing to observe in real time ⏲️
Doesn’t look like it. Looking fairly “anti-“, instead.
DeSantis is acting exactly like a Democrat by treating Donald Trump’s name like Lord Voldemort (“You-Know-Who” or “He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named”) from Harry Potter.
I thought the speeches were great! All of them!
I rewatched DeSantis’ speech on Rumble, and he definitely did not say Trump’s name. He mentioned Mar-a-Lago only once, and it was about 40 minutes into the speech. He did mention about the FISA courts targeting some unnamed innocent man, but I think he was referring to Carter Page.
Thank you for listening and posting. I wanted to listen to fact-check some of the comments here but I don’t think I can stomach it. 🙂 I’m getting turned off by DeSantis by the hour.
As much as we talk about the DOJ/FBI acting like they got caught and are angry by us being upset, we should really look at the GOPe here. They weren’t happy about this at all, and not because it happened. I think both sides were caught aback by Trump calling it out.
A couple of months ago we heard rumblings of the Deep State were going to indict Trump before the midterms. Those rumors likely bubbled up because of the grand jury they impaneled. This raid plays into that narrative. Trump looks stronger after this, DeSantis weaker. And I call BS about Kirk putting this together in only 5 days. Near impossible to do that unless you’ve got big cash behind you. This is not going the way they planned it out.
Good One!
TPUSA has big cash now … because of Trump.
We need a new term for the Republicans who leverage Trump and then distance themselves from him. INGRATES.
Stomping On The Shoulders Of Giants.
Amen and AMEN!!!
Maybe this is why the FED is looting like there is n tomorrow, they don’t seem worried at all.

No one here “knows” anything. You’re just voicing opinions and biases as facts. I don’t know and I’m going to wait for some facts before I post opinions about DeSantis, the FBI raid and 2024. I wish tf the rest of you people would do the same. And I hope if you turn out to be wrong, you have the grace to admit it.
likewise I’m sure
Do you require DeSantis to actually say “I dislike Trump”? It’s never going to happen. But his silence about Trump is saying exactly that.
No more candidates in their late 70s. Trump would be older than Biden was when he was elected in 2024.
We need younger candidates who are not thin-skinned with the press and doesn’t have the baggage.
DeSantis 2024!
Count this as a down vote
count this a down vote Some voters will continue to be gullible and simply ignorant even as SunDance has pulled DECADES of knowledge together and so eloquently spells it out. Those who ignore the warnings may as vote for a DummyCrat
Going by your poor logic, 72 year old Samuel Alito and 74 year old Clarence Thomas should retire from the Supreme Court despite the two men being the most conservative justices on the Supreme Court.
Amy, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh barely come close to being as conservative as Alito and Thomas. Unlike Alito and Thomas, the trio even refused to hear Texas’ 2020 election lawsuit. If anything, being younger than Alito and Thomas makes Amy, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh more tempted to join the liberal side rather than the conservative side.
Youth is NOT an asset when running the country, Victoria. But nice try with your Dem-sponsored ageist comment.
Abraham Lincoln was 52 when elected President. In the grand scheme of things, that is young.
Where do you come up with these superficial cliches?
Why not stick to the obvious and avoid the puerile instinct to attack anyone who disagrees with your transcendent understanding of everything political? Why not instead state something intelligent like wisdom, character, experience, integrity, etc., are what matter; that there have been successful people in all walks of life, including politics, at various ages. That the FRIGGIN Constitution you so deeply care for establishes 35 years of age as the low rung on the ladder to run for the Presidency.
We all get it: you’re here to fend any parry at the leader of the MAGA movement. That’s fine. It’s how you go about it that is wrong-headed. You don’t have to demean yourself to the point of becoming a self-parody in the process.
You do understand that you sound exactly like a tribal progressive when you bumper-sticker people with a discrimination label – at least one would hope that self-awareness exists.
Public service: apologies Victoria. While it is the case that older people (such as Joe Biden) certainly decline physically and are more susceptible to mental decline it’s not a universal law of nature. Donald Trump does not fit that profile. That said, it does appear that if one lines up the average age of the power elites in the Senate and Congress at present and compare that to the state of the nation the notion that youth may serve the country well is not escapist thinking. Do you have recommendations for which youthful leaders have the requisite skills for the Office of the President and whether you believe the Republican Party actively and systematically recruits promising youth into the party. We know the Democrat Party does this.
Semper Term Limits!
Age is no guarantee of wisdom. There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age. Youth is wasted on the young. Age is a very high price to pay for maturity.
This is midterm time and these rallies are essential especially in key states that have close senate races. It’s expected the house will flip but if we can flip the senate that will be a major hurdle to block the JoeBama agenda. Should DeSantis and Trump both throw their hat in the ring for 2024 run, DeSantis will have to show his true colors and that would not bode well for him. As a Florida resident I’m hoping he fills out his second term as a Florida Governor and Trump will be our next president.
So, you believe his true colors are suspect but support him for Governor just, well, because.
Got it.
DeSantis is not the guy.
“Ready for Ron” is the brand new fundraising PAC email soliciting donations “not affiliated with any candidate” just received this am. Surprised it’s not winred although it probably will be in the future.
lol at “not affiliated with any candidate”
They have a web site but it doesn’t reveal who’s behind the PAC. Here’s the FEC filing dated May 25 2022: https://www.fec.gov/files/legal/aos/2022-12/202212R_1.pdf
The office address is one of those rent-an-office-space businesses in Miami. The FEC form was signed by their legal counsel. They’re hiding who the PAC-owners are, probably because if we knew we’d be actively against them. Probably Jeb!. lol
The attorney did a podcast interview, I didn’t listen to it because I’m expecting it to just be barfy DeSantis-pimping.
A Hill article says this about the PAC:
The familiar GOP name co-chairing Ready for Ron is Ed Rollins, the veteran Republican operative who was campaign chairman of President Reagan’s 1984 landslide. Rollins also chaired Great America PAC, which spent $26 million supporting Trump in 2016 but less than $10 million in 2020.
Reading comments – I guess Ted DeSantis is going to be the new flavor for 2024 ….for some anyway ( ironic sarcasm )
I think his carefully choreographed rollout was disrupted by the raid events … IMHO
Now that is funny! Sundance caught that Kirk said they prepared the events in 5 days. The events were announced the same day as the raid, Mon Aug 08. So I’m assuming they started preparations on Wed Aug 03. FWIW, the search warrant was obtained on Fri Aug 05.
It certainly wasn’t good optics to announce the DeSantis rallies on the same day as the raid, it might lead people to believe that the two were connected. But if they weren’t then it’s pretty funny because the big announcement of the raids was, within a few hours, totally overridden by news of the raid. 🙂
On the other hand, probably more people showed up because of the raid, because so many people think that DeSantis is MAGA and that there’s a chance in hell DeSantis would actually be Trump’s VP. (Never gonna happen.)
Marco DeSantis.
The GOP is a big old ship. It is slow and cumbersome. It is not stealthy or agile. People will know soon enough about DeSantis by the way he manoeuvers?
I should look back at 2017 comments to see how long it took for the adamant Sessions supporters to lose hope after Sessions recused. IIRC it was months. We still have time, it’s not even 2023 yet. I’m glad it’s this early.
About 12 months ago I was privy to a conversation which stood the hair up on the back of my neck – people I know in Chicago who are well-to-do lifetime establishment Democrats and anti-Trumpers with full on TDS, commented how Ron DeSantis would be a good president. The hair stood up on my neck – I say this because these establishment Democrats are connected to Obama’s WH network intimately. At the time I figured that it was just them realizing what a loser Biden is, and this was a likely alternative that could happen so I kept quite and thought no more of it. Not until this ‘classified papers hoax’ of PDJT and DeSantis’s passive response if not roll in it, did I realize DeSantis has likely been picked by the UniParty, and those establishment Democrat comments make more sense now. The manipulation on a grand scale is scary.
always interesting to hear anecdotal evidence that comports with the obvious signs and observations – a winner . But Chicago is far from Florida ( sarcasm )
Chicago is as crooked as them come and has always been
intertwined with national politics – on the leftists side.
Chicago is a key node in the Obama network. Info was from someone who worked in the Obama WH, and quit the Biden WH due to all the woke incompetents. But this is just my datapoint, although I believe a decent one. Was similar to the hair raising when I heard from a Democrat that an establishment republican who worked for Obama was running a whisper campaign for Biden.
its a republican’s turn because a severe recession is looming?
And, the two parties together have chosen Ron DeSantis?
Got it!
This is one of the reasons why I’m so thankful for the internet. Imagine how hard it would be for us to discuss this and connect with others if we didn’t have the internet and our news was simply propaganda. It’s very scary. I am often nostalgic for prior decades, but when it comes to politics definitely not. No wonder I was a Dem before, I was ignorant but it wasn’t entirely my fault!
Mainstream media keep quoting unnamed sources.
They get away with slander and defamation.
The same applies to many politicians.
Decent, loyal Americans must not descend to their level.
Avoid hurting or even destroying the reputation of people on hearsay and speculation.
Expose people where there is confirmed complete written and audio sources.
Wicked people will sooner or later reveal their true nature.
As Jesus said
“no good tree bears bad fruit,
nor again does a bad tree bear good fruit,
for each tree is known by its own fruit“
I have the Tea Party in Martin County FL for 14 years and I was on the board at our local republican party. I agree I do not Trust DeSantis. First we have our own SWAMP in the state house they are Jeb and Scott leftovers. The staffers are still there. DeSantis has a hard time keeping staff that is a good sign for he not taking advice from the SWAMP. I like you believe he is no TRUMP even though he is showing strength. When the Tea party got started Trump would help the Tea party in Palm beach county by paying for venues and other activities. He did this quietly. He came to our Tea party Convention in SC and talked with everyone . This is a man that understands what America has become. We have a large group very active running candidates and support Trump. The local party is trying to divide and conquer but we are on to them. This weekend we will be having a large RALLY for TRUMP. We are watching closely and will not be pushed into supporting DeSantis in 2024 TRUMP ONLY!! Thanks you for your work
Oh and my Golden Retriver is 6 years old and named Andrew Jackson Bannon He is a big Trump Supporter!!!
God bless you!
I need to rename my pets. 🙂
Blessings 🙏on your rally. Please be alert on infiltrators and pretenders. Never forget J6.
I think Sundance is gone the way of Glen Beck. Gov. Ron DeSantis is running for re-election as Governor. I live in Florida and the demoncrats are assaulting him with lies, (Charlie Crist) is a true backstabbing turd. I don’t pay attention to Beck and I am rapidly losing trust for Sundance and his conditioned and devoted followers. Let’s re-elect our Governor Ron DeSantis in the upcoming election now.
OK , nobody has a problem with him BEING Governor, But if you don’t think they are positioning him to be the “Ted” of 2024 , I have a bridge in Florida I can sell you , – I will send you price and location upon request….
Guess who Glenn’s touting this morning? Yep…DeSantis!..and he’s not talking about the governorship.
That bridge sale is going fast…..Glen B. is bidding on it
Teddy Bear Glenn?
Nope. I don’t want what Sundance to be true and decided to wait and watch. As time passes, Sandance’s review increasingly looks correct and pro-DeSantis is looking incorrect. We hate watching our heroes fall. It’s hard to accept.
What we are talking about is a belief in a person where there becomes two mutually exclusive interpretations. This is DIVISION of the base.
I have said the same thing about Pence. Either he is completely ignorant of the effect of his endorsement (that is to say stupid and arrogant) or he is aware of it and is intentionally destroying the chances of RINOs. Either of these can be true, but I have resigned myself to hoping he continues supporting RINOs because the results are desirable regardless of motive/purpose/intent.
But as this type of thinking applies to DeSantis? I’m not in favor of this line of ambiguity. To deceive the base and confuse the base is to weaken the base and this does NOT serve any desirable result. We do not want a divided base on MAGA.
All of the idols are false… Nothing has changed. wakie wakie
DeSantis would be a great candidate for POTUS in 2024.
But wait . I thought everybody was saying he was a great Governor who needed to be reelected in 2022 to keep Florida in good shape.?…. If he runs for President he will be absentee governor starting in 2023- better check who the Lt Gov. will be
Trump pushed DeSantis over the finish line, otherwise Florida would have been much different today. Very disappointing as I thought DeSantis had better character. I still like his record, but he’s a far far second to Trump.
Trump pushed Kari Lake to the GOP nomination, DeSantis didn’t even endorse her, and yet in her crass big d*ck tweet notice that DeSantis is the larger image and above Trump. Too obvious, Turning Point. F U.
And look at her endorsements web page. I notice subtle things. She properly puts Trump’s endorsement first, but notice that her image is much larger than his, and yet for the other endorsements her image is the same size as the endorsers’.
If I had designed that poster, Trump would be first as “alpha”, DeSantis would be “beta”, and Biden would be the null symbol. lol
After six days tells me old Ronny desantis is a rino. He’s been playing the part very well up to this point.
Disappointing
Remember… the GOP and RNC are counting on you to believe in DeSantis.
What’s going on I believe with DeSantis is what the GOPe has done before – In a position of strength, i.e. Red Wave, rather than fight for nearly the whole loaf negotiate with establishment Democrats to give half a loaf away so they can diss the conservative base they despise, in particular Christian conservative, and most importantly evangelicals. The only election goal is to dupe conservatives into showing up and voting for the ‘R’, except this time they have to dupe the MAGA. It’s Tea Party 2.0
Ron DeSantis is first and foremost a politician we all know this true.
He will do like politicians do ride the fence, say what the crowd wants to hear.
Politicians are all to varying degrees
chameleons.
If we get to vote and to
whatever end I’m gonna vote Trump.
And if and when the real fight, that they begging for, begins Lord willing I’m gonna be there.
We keep saying this hill to fight for, this is hill stand.
The truth is:
this Hill is in Washington DC.
Even more bothersome is Kari and several others harping for him so hard.
She’s dug a hole now and I won’t be trusting her anymore either.
Watch for the signs people.. The pivot is coming.
Reminds me of the Twilight zone episode “The Monsters of Maple Street”.
Signs? Are you into witchcraft? So now Kari is now a “harpie”? Screw you.
Ron the Cucked DeSantis lets Trump and Mar-a-lago get pilfered by the feds (or were you not paying attention?). Rons response and lack of any action except to come out and plug himself to the GOPe is all part of the pivot. The ‘alternative option’ getting played up by Kari is more than a little obvious fakery to those who have been awake for decades. You likely cannot see it or refuse.. either because of Stockholm syndrome or chemical castration as anyone with a good head on their shoulders wouldn’t tolerate being lied to anymore. By all means, please continue to follow your idols back to the status quo.. I sure hope you enjoy the fall.
“harping” and “harpie” aren’t related at all.
“harping” is talking incessantly about something or someone.
Hey, scroll up and see Kari’s cringe-worthy “BDE” tweet. Notice the placement of Trump, DeSantis, and Biden. That was deliberate.
Not true the 6 days part he was on Beck’s podcast last week.
Advertising his rallies?
It’s on YouTube. Title: “Ron DeSantis vs. Everyone: The Governor Who BROKE the Media” (barf)
In the latter part of the video Beck asks DeSantis about his relationship with Trump. Here is a transcript I made, I think it’s correct:
Beck: Everybody’s tried to pit you against Donald Trump. Everybody’s speculating whether you would run, I’m not going to ask you that question. The worst thing that could happen to the right and the Constitutional Republicans is for their to be a scene where you two were eating one another. And Donald Trump is very good at isolating his opposition. How’s your relationship with him? And is it possible, are you guys working together? And I’m not talking about an election, but do you have a good working relationship with him?
DeSantis: Look, I think a lot of that is, I mean first of all when he was President he was great for Florida, very accessible, really helped us with a lot of things, and I can tell you having Biden for a year and half has been a disaster for Florida and he tries to do whatever he can to throw sand in the gears here. But I think a lot of that’s just the media, the media they know the Democrats are going to have a rough ’22, and so they want to figure out ways to try to trip the Republicans up, and so just because I’ve become well-known now as Governor they think that trying to do that, so what I’m doing is just focusing on beating the left. And we’re excited about the opportunities in Florida, you know I’m not only doing my election which is very important, I’m helping our legislative candidates. […] I think we gotta understand like, people can try to do this or that, but at the end of the day to me the threats to our freedom are coming from the left. There’s, of course, establishment Republicans, there’s other stuff that we can talk about within our own tent, but I think the focus now really needs to be beating back the left. We’ve done that more than anybody has, I think in the country and in the state of Florida, that’s one of the reasons why people are flocking here in record numbers. […]
I know people love to just gossip and talk, but I can tell you, like, focusing on these future things when we have so much on our plate now, that’s just never the way I think and so that’s just not the road I go down.
He’s actually claiming, or implying, that he’s not doing anything for a 2024 Presidential run, and yet surely at the time of this interview he was already preparing to go to three battleground states with TPUSA, go to New Mexico for another rally, and also go to Massachusetts for some kind of fund-raising party with hedge fund big shots. What does all of this stuff have to do with his Florida re-election campaigning?
Worse, in his entire response to Beck’s question I did not hear DeSantis mention Trump’s name a single time, nor does he answer Beck’s question.
BDE? Maybe just BD. And I don’t mean anatomically.
Ron DeSantis flat out lied when he said he was the only candidate in the Florida primary. There ARE others, and the ONLY reason Trump hasn’t already endorsed one of them is because… who knows?
The primary race is still 8 days away. Now would be a good time for Trump to shut down this theatrical act once and for all.
I think the other candidates who wanted to run didn’t qualify, so DeSantis is officially the only Republican running in the primary.
We definitely don’t want that Governor spot to go to a Dem so we should pray DeSantis wins re-election. Florida is going to be such an important state for the 2024 presidential election, a Dem in charge of the state then could be a disaster for us.
So let me get this straight: DeSantis is a sell-out to the Uniparty machine who is knowingly undercutting DJT but he’s essential for delivering a faithful, legal outcome for the 2024 election in FL.
Got it.
So… Governor DeSantis is “stumping” for MAGA candidates handpicked by PDJT.
And you DeSantis haters want me to believe he is the enemy?
There are a thousand other Dems and RINOs that merit our focus and dislike before I am going to criticize the Governor.
Our time IMO is better spent on focusing on the real enemies of MAGA.
He never mentions Trump though. Look upward a little bit and read my transcript of the last part of a DeSantis interview with Glenn Beck. DeSantis refuses to answer Beck’s question, he rattles on and on about a lot of stuff but doesn’t answer Beck’s question. And I have another complaint, it’s in my comment up there ^^^
fka Serena: Thank you for pointing me towards your previous post and the Beck interview.
Respectfully, RD should be commended for campaigning for handpicked MAGA candidates.
Are there RINO’s out there who are stumping for MAGA candidates as the Governor is?
The criticism of RD has been for what he hasn’t done as compared to what he has done in Florida and towards continuing the MAGA movement in the country.
I believe others have deserved criticism far more than the Governor.
Respectfully, RD should be commended for campaigning for handpicked MAGA candidates.
Not if he’s trying to replace Trump. Ever seen the film “All About Eve” ? 🙂
I cannot continue to repeat myself in this comment section. Please read all of the comments, then you’ll understand why many of us are ceasing to be DeSantis fans.
fka Serena: Other than speculation, which is based on what RD has not said or not done, what has the Governor done that will convince me he is “trying to replace PDJT?”
Once PDJT announces his candidacy, do you really think RD will run against him?
The very fake media, Dems and Rino’s would love to see division in the MAGA movement.
Once President Trump announces, he will clear the Republican field and takes all the oxygen out of anyone else’s candidacy IMO.
Why do you think DeSantis refused to answer Glenn Beck’s question about DeSantis’ working relationship with Trump? Why do you think DeSantis made one brief mention of Trump helping when he was President, but then rattled on and on and on about all sorts of tangentially-related stuff and never answered the question and never even once said Trump’s name?
DeSantis would have lost the Florida Governor election if not for Trump. DeSantis has inherited many of Trump’s supporters.
Yes Dems and RINOs want to see division. But THEY are creating it by continually pimping DeSantis as the new leader of the GOP party, a replacement for Trump, etc. And DeSantis appears to be a bit of a liar there, saying he was focused on Florida elections (his own and others’) yet going on a multi-state rally tour and also up to Massachusetts to get some $$$ from some hedge fund dudes.
We’re just letting him know we’re watching closely. And we want all MAGA people to know that DeSantis might not be as MAGA as they hoped …
Bingo!
These people don’t understand they are pissing off a lotta folks. Folks who have actually done some of the heavy lifting during their lives. They are creating the very outcome they claim to be serving notice on precisely because of their completely disproportionate response.
Four weeks from now, no one gives a rat’s patout about image sizes on posters or head nods to DJT at state rallies. It’s juvenile beyond belief. Trump has the entire eff’ing system collapsing on him and rage is focused on DeSantis because he hasn’t acted as they prefer? No rage and action plan for taking the fight to the perpetrators Sundance has identified Parts 1 through 4? Raise the matter of a plan and the challenge is simply echo’d back? This is all fast becoming a circular firing squad folks.
Or is it also by design?
Once again, SD needs to be careful with the narrative. He and Trump already “inked” the deal.
Are you suggesting that Trump and DeSantis have a deal? No, that’s 3D chess. We don’t do 3D chess any more.
We no likey RINOs, GOPEs, and (my new one) INGRATES.
Stomping On The Shoulders Of Giants.
As opposed to acknowledging they are standing upon the shoulders of giants as did Issac Newton in crediting his predecessors in enabling his own successes.
