Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has come under fire for his transfer of illegal aliens from Texas to Massachusetts, Martha’s Vineyard. The Lawfare operatives within the leftist open-border community appear to be targeting DeSantis over technical elements in the Florida law he used to transfer 50 alien arrivals.
The legal maneuver being deployed to target the Florida governor, seems centered around his authority being limited to the movement of aliens who traveled to, or were residing in, Florida at the time of their transfer – as constructed in the Florida law used to authorize the use of taxpayer funding for his action. {LINK} As the argument is made, if the aliens were never actually in Florida, their legal transport would not be covered by the FL legislative authority that provided for their removal.
Today, during a press conference to announce state sales tax relief, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis fired back at those who are targeting him. WATCH:
.
The transport of the alien arrivals to Martha’s Vineyard was a great way to bring attention to the national border crisis.
This was a smart move by DeSantis. He is giving the left all the rope they want to hang themselves. Nevertheless, he will still have to wait his turn to be president.
Problem is, he’s not waiting. He’s actively trying to continue the usurpation of President Trump’s second term by currently campaigning to get himself elected president in 2024.
Why can’t people just appreciate DeSantis for being an effective Governor and leave it at that for now? Many of us have been disappointed in some of his moves.
All this speculation on who’s he has taken money from, what he did or didn’t say about Trump, what his future intentions are….Trump is still saying he is the best Governor ever. Let’s just get through this next election.
For now, please … give the man a break. You are only amping up Crist. If you know anything about Crist, he will turn Florida into Bidenland. Talking mass exodus.
I know you’ll all have a lot to say, respectfully.. you’re not helping.
My God, this country is hanging by a thread.
The avarice of DeSantis is unconscionable. He is the Kamala Harris of the GOP.
Crist was already our governor. Jeb told you to vote for him.
Actually if DeSantis ultimately betrays the DS and not Trump’24 I could handle that on a double or triple agent basis. Good when he is good, but too complex for everybody and the trust is gone.
“The avarice of DeSantis is unconscionable. He is the Kamala Harris of the GOP.”
That’s a delusional statement.
Only because you are PRETENDING.
No, it’s an incredibly ridiculous statement. If you’re trolling, you need to dial it back a bit. That went just a tad too far to serve its purpose.
Not to mention outright silly.
Correct … DeSantis will be another worthless bush43 … he will talk the presidential talk but will NOT walk it … his moneymen will demand unquestioning compliance … what they NEVER got from Trump.
JRD… perhaps you haven’t heard, Charile Crist is now a Dem. Charlie Crist thinks Joe Biden is the best President of his lifetime… need I go on?
LOL
congratulations on your single upvotes.
A troll reaction – “lol”
Well, if Jeb told me then I got to do what Jeb says, lol.
The slavish devotion to Trump, condemnation of DeSantis and rigid groupthink on this site is a big disappointment.
It is perfectly possible to think, as I do, that Trump is the best candidate in 2024, AND that DeSantis is the best Republican governor since at least Reagan. I don’t expect DeSantis diminish his own stature by challenging Trump, but he would be a fool if he weren’t doing everything in his power to establish himself as Plan B and next in line. If he can’t pass a conservative purity test, we’re doomed because no one outside the Trump family would.
Perfectly stated.
As my Daddy used to say…you ain’t never lied!
Exactly our point. $10 million bribe will get you motivated. DeSantis silence about the raid for a week is causing the mistrust. We make him own it. You don’t have to like it but we’re tired of getting fooled by the likes of McConnells goons Ted Cruz and Rubio. Controlled opposition. I see 2 issues- Trumps stance on the death jab, and DeSantis being controlled by Billionaires that have to be answered for. Trump ignores the overwhelming evidence that these shots cause 1000’s of injuries,and DeSantis will have to prove he will promote MAGA America First policies when being bought by a creep like his future Treasury Secretary
imo very few if any pass such a test. desantis needs to explain his foreign policy ideas should he express presidential ambitions. and take a page or two from marjorie taylor greene on the ukraine war and the sanctions, the worst move the u.s. has made since 9-11.
And that’s the point … NOTHING outside of Florida is in DeSantis power … he’s the never-trumper-moneybags “Plan B” puppet.
Thank you. Some common sense and at least nineteen other posters with some sense.
“The avarice of DeSantis is unconscionable. He is the Kamala Harris of the GOP.”
Really? You wrote that ridiculous statement?
I will not sit silently and hope everything works out. This is how we find ourselves where we are; “shhh, don’t say anything true about Politician X; we need them.” Balderdash!
Sorry, I’m a little more pragmatic. No need to tear down DeSantis while he’s running for Gov.
Crist is not an option. Florida will become an extension of current DC policies.
I’ve said he’s fine as Governor, but not as President of the US. His words show a positioning. Can’t have any pesky videos in 2023 surfacing showing negativity towards “illegal aliens.” Governor DeSantis has put himself in the middle of the teeter-totter.
And you will be surprised when DeSantis wins re-election and will not care at all about governing Florida because he will be consumed with running for POTUS. But the rest of us won’t.
Why are you so afraid to find out the truth?
THE TRUTH HAS NO AGENDA.
Now is the time to ask DeSantis do you want to be Florida’s governor for the next 4 years or are you running for president.
It’s time for him to choose. He can’t have both. Florida needs a committed governor.
Choosing to hide your head in the sand is not going to get you what you want.
Time to focus on what’s in front of us.. not speculate about presumptions. Crist is running on the most progressive platform and with the most liberal rhetoric we have seen in some time from a Florida Democrat. Crist voted for Biden’s multitrillion-dollar spending triggering inflation. Crist voted to support Biden’s open border policies. It has been reported Crist is with Biden 100% of the time.
We have a choice DeSantis or Crist. You can speak your cliches and ponder over your crystal ball, I choose the lesser of two.
And, while I may live on the beach.. the sand stays there.
Crists job is to help DeSantis get elected; the Dems ALWAYS help the “Mainstream Republicans” in whatever way they need.
And the Mainstream Republicans DESPERATELY need a “MAGA SPLITTER CANDIDATE” in 2024, that can be offered up, as an alternative to “Trump”.
Those who do not allow their emotions to cloud their judgement and silence their internal critical thinking, those who have experienced the abuse at the hands of the Mainstream Republicans their whol lives,..KNOW this.
So what?
How many times does this have to be repeated: the comical belief that MAGA represents a uniform 100 million people is foolish in the extreme. It is, in fact, an amalgam that ranges from disenfranchised Democrats, to disaffected Independents, to principled Patriots, to hero worshipping acolytes, to the usual mix of folks who stand to benefit. Winning an election means nothing if the internecine warfare based on loyalty standards overtakes common sense. There will be accommodation – count on it. Better to define the core and limited values that cannot be transgressed and wait before going on the attack.
See the world for what it is, not what you want it to be. Getting tired of all this generalizing used as baby seal clubs.
Correct … I’m a MAGA Patriot supporting MAGA Patriot President Donald John Trump.
Gee … it’s almost like the never-trumper-moneybags paid Crist to run as the worst RAT candidate ever – guaranteeing the winner can then focus on his assignment -MAGAlite Presidential Candidate.
Playground spitballing.
I don’t know whether to laugh or spend some cycles exploiting how you react to external, incomplete phenomena. It would be beyond easy.
As it is, go ahead! Get it out of your system! You’re so much more experienced and better informed than the rest of us.
Try contemplating second order effects before crossing that Rubicon
Lol. There is no speculation as to where his money is coming from. Stop pretending not to know. And if you don’t know, you should…
What gave you the impression I don’t know… certainly SD has written about it several times.
Curious, since you think I’m so unaware and uninformed what options do you present for the Governor of Florida come 11/8? Crist in lieu?
You people are laughable. DeSantis is bought and owned! He can’t be trusted. Buuuuuuut, he’s fine for Florida?
I would respond in bolder terms how I feel about this classic example of bending principles to practical realities (good for thee, not for me)…but yesterday’s missive on good behavior governs. The subtle hypocrisy wouldn’t be absorbed anyway.
“Why can’t people just appreciate DeSantis for being an effective Governor and leave it at that for now?”
I appreciate him. I live in Washington state. DeSantis is a wonderful governor, and it heartens me to see how he protects the interests of Florida residents.
This campaign to pit these two men against each other feels contrived. And the willingness for so many to just go along with it, to start parroting this nonsense and attacking anyone who doesn’t agree as NOT MAGA!!! is embarrassing. Those on the Right like to brag about not being “sheeple,” but that’s exactly how they’re behaving on this issue.
Gee I guess I missed the “Ron for Prez “ad … be sure an slander him some more so Charlie Crist can be the next FL Gov… y’all are nuts!!
The ad was when he fired his campaign team and hired an entirely new team with ties to many GOP establishment PAC’s and schmoozes donors from big Global Corporate interests.
If you want to ignore moves like that, go ahead but please don’t disparage people for paying attention.
NO POLITICIAN should be trusted. None. Watch what they do, not what they say and support them only as long as they NEVER take the establishment side. Never.
I wish DeSantis would position himself as the Governor who will nullify the Federal Government and quit sending Florida workers taxes to D.C.
Now THAT would be a damned Governor to get behind!!!!!!!!!!!
The words Desantis will never say,..”2020 election was stolen” speaks volumed, and its really ALL you need to know.
Being a popular Governor, with both wings of the Uniparty WANTING him to win his Governors race, he is a “shoo in” as Governor, and thats “fine”.
But, expect it, COUNT on it, he will attempt to use his position as Governor, to further try to cement his image as MAGA, in order to challenge PDJT in 2024.
How do I know?,…cause of the the words HE WILL NEVER SAY.
“He’s actively trying to continue the usurpation of President Trump’s second term by currently campaigning to get himself elected president in 2024.”
Dude, we don’t do coronations in the United Sates of America.
Trump or DeSantis have to earn my vote. PERIOD.
Unfortunately for the entire country, we DID do a coronation in 2020 – it just wasn’t for the right person.
And Lizzie Cheney has just proven JUDASpence knowingly certified a stolen election – by her vote with the RATS to eliminate THAT duty from the Vice President’s Official Duties !!!
JUDASpence gooseStepped his “2024 Handlers” commands to certify a stolen election for a braindead Soros PROP as pResident of a fake whitehouse … knowingly
stealing the re-election of our President Trump from WeThePeople.
The RINORATS want to eliminate the possibility of another VP ever taking his duties seriously and applying facts to his Constitutionally Sworn Patriotic duties!!!
Trump isn’t getting back in. No way in hell are they going to let him.
Which is EXACTLY why he is the ONLY candidate to support in 2024. Supporting anyone else is supporting the coup against a sitting President.
Thank you.
Getting back in? They are trying to destroy him…and then us,
“New York Attorney General Letitia James has sued former President Donald Trump and accused him of engaging in ‘numerous acts of fraud,’ in a legal move that follows a three-year probe. James was to announce the suit at a Wednesday press conference, in a suit that accuses Trump and his three adult children of pumping up property valuations of his real estate empire, and low-balling values when dealing with tax authorities. She said following a review of ‘millions of documents,’ and told reporters it was for ‘violating the law as part of his efforts to generate profits for himself, his family and his company.’ She said he did so ‘to cheat the system and to cheat all of us.’ She specifically named Trump and three of his adult children, Don Jr., Eric, and Ivanka Trump, and said they ‘persistently’ inflated the value of assets.
“
We don’t care about “their” plans … WeThePeople care about the United States of America and our Families and WE KNOW President Trump does too!!!
Dear God Help Us. Amen.
“the usurpation of President Trump’s second term?” Did you seriously write that? And got 22 upvotes for that nonsense?
smart move? seems to me he’s just a “follower” of Governor Abbot’s idea and plan…
And all of DJT’s ideas/policies were original? Do you even think about what you post?
It’s really too bad that we have to now question DeSantis’ motives, donations, etc. While we don’t know anything about his foreign policy, his domestic policy is pretty much what this country needs.
Why? We should question everything every time of anyone running for office
Your statement is how we got into this mess.
IMO, it should be mandatory that politicians explain in detail their sources of “contributions”; who, when, how, for what reason, etc and be posted on the internet. The various forms of “filing” on paper is woefully insufficient.
This all goes back to the Campaign Finance Legislation (McCain-Feingold) that John McLame (worm with teeth republiwont) managed to get passed. Repeal and replace that bill and force candidates to only get money to run for office from the citizens. That will 1) force politicians to do the bidding of their constituents instead of also big money donors and 2) help dry-up MSM.
An evil that continues to linger.
Exactly: anyone.
DeSantis’ domestic policy is Donald Trump’s policy. Trump is the innovator and we need Trump again to dig us out of this hole.
Ron will give us the corporate foreign policy wars we do not want and do not need because he is a copy cat and he is dependent on corporate money. That’s ok if he is mimicing someone like Trump. But he will not be a man for the people, trying to save America,like Trump.
He will disappoint eventually. We have seen this before.
All DeSantis does is copy someone that has had a successful idea.
No sense in wasting time re-inventing the wheel – just be honest about it.
Correct … another fetch-n-step Chamber of Commerce moneywhore.
It isn’t too bad that donations to DeSantis are questioned. It is imperative to question them, as it determines their actions once elected. There is no need to care what DeSantis’ foreign or domestic policies are, because that is not what they will be if elected. He is no different than any other politician and he would be the same shit on a different day. Remember that Einstein defined insanity as doing the same thing again and again, while expecting different results.
Trump got 400 million loan money from Soros, went to kiss Sheldon Adelson’s ring right around the Las Vegas massacre, big pharma gave him a million or so.. His pardons are a roster of hig faluting thieves who stole mega-millions. https://federalnewsnetwork.com/entertainment-news/2020/12/a-look-at-the-29-people-trump-pardoned-or-gave-commutations/https://federalnewsnetwork.com/entertainment-news/2020/12/a-look-at-the-29-people-trump-pardoned-or-gave-commutations/
Trump is embroiled in his battle with the DS. It is personal to him. I have no desire to do that battle as he plAys games wiTh the DS and hireD them. I question the sincerity. He could have defended Michael Flynn. He could have stopped the lockdowns. he still brags about the clotshot yet he reads sports and has to know of all the young athletes dropping dead whose only similarity is the clotshot. If he was so ineffective because those around him scuttled his plans then he ain’t that bright or authoritative as made out to be.
Trump did not make up the idea to get rid of illegal’s or build a wall. He got very little of both of those done anyways. Why is Trump not praising DeSantis for putting the MV crowd back on their heels? That puts the shoe on the other foot of those claiming he ain’t bragging that Trump thought of it. Jeesh. I thought I was conservative but if his is how conservatives take the measure of a candidate then ya’all ain’t no better than the cult of personality crew on the left wing.
My biggest problm with DeSanitis is his signing into law making it a criminal offense to criticize Israel. What the hell does that have to do with the US? This country has attacked our Navy..USS Liberty..stole trillions from our Pentagon..Dov Zakheim..flew planes into the WTC..dancing Israelis.
So, you are definetly Ant-Trump, then.
What. Is. Your. Point. ?
And why he should remain the Florida GOVERNOR and hone up on USA & Foreign Policies for 2028.
Wrong.
The basic difference is so simple that many refuse to see.
DeSantis is a politician through and through.
DeSantis will never confront Wall Street they write his donor checks.
Independents voted for President Trump because economics.
Economic natiolism will never ever be espoused by DeSantis.
True, Ron ran for 3 offices in less than 10 years ( counting abortive move to run for Rubio seat when Rubio ran for nomination – ) a very ambitious POLITICIAN( sorry for offending caps ), so why are people naive to think he wouldn’t be willingly bought /‘seduced ‘ whatever by Big GOP money and promises – irresistible to an ambitious Politician , it is in their nature . PDJT – remember they all loved him when he was on the sidelines as a generous donor , but that all changed instantly on the first step of the escalator…amazing how that happened – not really – he was and is a threat to the uniparty system and they know it …
He has been bought.
Ron has been the best of the current governors.
But he’s still a trojan JagOff.
Mar-a-Lago was the proof of the pudding.
Hardly “the best”, You just don’t know about the other governors because the fake news is so busy propping this turtle up on a post.
Pretty good imagery , an oldie but goody
So Biden and his 3rd term Obama administration send his Gestapo FBI after Donald Trump along with calling Trump voters Fascist and it’s DeSantis’ fault.
That’s total nonsense.
He’s not responsible for Biden admin’s bad actors. The fact that he went AWOL for an entire week and, to my knowledge, has yet to comment on the unconstitutionality of the event is very telling. Particularly considering this guy never misses an opportunity for a press conference.
Exactly… too many watch a few stunts, impressed by what it appears to be, and neglect the real work of seeking background of politicians. Follow the money, it is so basic – he’s already bought and paid for –
I interpret this as we are finally approaching the number of invaders needed to accomplish whatever was planned.
Wrong think, but, probably true. How devious of the Luciferians.
Here is a transcript of a longish but superb speech Governor Desantis gave a week ago, it is worth the time reading it: https://americanmind.org/salvo/florida-versus-davos/
They’re scheduled for the same day as his follow up appearance for Lee Zeldin.
🤣
Going to Rehobeth Beach, DE. It was in the news last night. BoBo was asked about it and he said “They’ll love it. Beautiful views of the sea.”
One is either MAGA or not.
The gist of it.
We will no longer be bound to laws when the leftists are completely unhinged from laws.
Send them to the lawyer’s homes.
The left has achieved their objective when we talk more about who will or will not challenge PDJT than we talk about the destruction the left is doing to our country now.
Then, perhaps, the fans of Ron can stop exclaiming “Trump/DeSantis! For America! 2024!” OR even worse “DeSantis! President! 2024!) or stuff like this. If they want to talk about how he is great for Florida and what a great job he is doing for Florida and how he is going to eliminate the corrupt voting machines and deport every illegal from Florida then I’m okay with that.
But every conversation ultimately ends up being Ron 2024!
The left, GOPe and rinos must de-legitimize PDJT to eliminate the threat he poses to their power and life style.
“Ron in 2024” serves that purpose and if they can control Ron if he does wins the general, that is a bonus for them.
Objective 1 is to eliminate PDJT………………………the bastards!
The RATS are evil and only destroy … the RINOS are RAT enablers – while trying to figure out how to destroy President Trump … so far MAGAlite DeSantis is all they’ve got.
Before I pass judgement on the Guv, I’d like to hear what “he” answers to specific questions that nobody has asked him yet!
Neither Obama nor Biden could ad lib like this. Remember every time Obama’s teleprompter went out, he stammered and looked the fool. Even in press conferences, the only way Obama was able to walk off with his smug face held high is bc journalists were so obsequious or afraid to pin him down.
Amazing: Even The Turtle has voiced his approval of DeSantis Airlines.
That’s because he approves of not-Trump DeSantis. Turtle is a ABT republican (anyone but Trump). Mitch has a lot to hide, and can’t afford for Trump to upset that apple cart.
And the turtle also “approved”/engineered DJT’s SCOTUS noms.
Ron DeSantis is the post turtle chose by the Never Trumps to split the MAGA vote.
That is a load of prevaricating hogwash. Trump was the good cop to Biden’s bad cop..if ya wanna play gotcha games. See how simple that is to split the gambit and team into non-cooperating players. Not how you win a game. DeSantis is not Trump junior or hi sycophant and should not be expected to. I do question his signing into law that criticism of Israel is a crime. Trump would go along with this too. Israel is an overlay of a Biblical realm and had it’s roots with Balfour, has no extradition treaty with the US, has shot up our navy, knocked down our skyscrapers and is HQ of he Khazarian mafia.
One thing to note. DeSantis was a Navy JAG. The Navy is the only Constitutional national Armed force and naval intel the only constituted intel agency. they were the ones targeted on 911 wih a missile right into the office tracking the theft by comptroller Dov Zakheim. Why the hell does the Pentagoons have a foreign national keeping the account books. Smells fishy to me.Is DeSantis a Navy Intel op?
I’m getting your point now Randy: “the Jews did it!”
Yea….first 3-4 sentences had me going too. Then, stand the heck by! 180 shift in course.
must be worried about KY voters buying a tube of KY for **him**
That alone tells us a lot. McConnel’s approval should be the kiss of death.
Not much of a backbone……………..after the lawfare threat of class action lawsuit, DeSantis backs down. He promised more relocations of illegals into Dem cities/communities. Not happening.
Sidebar: I am getting more and more text messages from the DeSantis folks, pleading for donations to “DeSantis backed candidates” like Laxalt.
No mention of MAGA, No mention of Trump backing Laxalt LONG BEFORE DeSantis.
I really can’t stand this preening Governor of Florida.
Do you live here in Florida? If not, take a hike!
I live here.
I knocked down doors for Ron since he first threw his hat in the ring for Congress.
I’m disgusted with him.
Time to take the blinders off.
We need unity to beat the machine not unbridled avarice.
Good luck with the unity messaging!
a fellow Floridian.
An excellent point … it should ONLY be Florida … but now DeSantis has moved from calling attention to himself for his wonderful State results – to dipping into other state issues per his “money-baggers” dictates.
The MV hypocrisy was fun – but what did it do for Florida?
thanks for the info
Team splitter.
This event did bring attention to the border catastrophe. Sundance and the comments are accurate, but the left is not being hypocritical. We are being shown over and over the true state of affairs.
They are a ruling class, a master race, if you will who enforce laws but decide amongst themselves their rules of behavior.
Their crimes are not the crimes; looking into their crimes is the crime.
Hillary was caught red-handed with classified special access documents while destroying evidence under subpoena, but Trump’s home was raided. He had said that she should be locked up and called her ‘crooked Hillary.’
Biden threatens to withhold aid to Ukraine until the prosecutor investigating his family’s corruption is fired.
Trump is impeached for asking about that shake down on a phone call.
The ruling class commits a raft of crimes by withholding documents, forging documents and violating the civil rights of millions to force experimental meds on the public but medical personnel, journalists and informed citizens are canceled, fired or jailed for telling the truth about the fiasco.
The folks on this blog could continue the list for pages.
They are not hypocrites. They are rulers. That is the true state of our country at this moment.
I refer to it as a “Thugocracy”
DeSantis didn’t “start” this. Abbott’s been doing the same thing for a while now.
I notice DeSantis is using Trump’s border policies, that Trump developed and used to secure the border as recommendations for what we should be doing on the border.
Unfortunately, he is not mentioning Donald Trump’s name to give credit for them.
I am glad the border issue is on the front burner now . Greg Abbot first had the idea of sending illegal immigrants to sanctuary states, not DeSantis.
It is amazing what you can accomplish when you don’t care who takes the credit.
Then just take credit for it yourself.
that is my one big complaint with PDJT…..AFTER the campaign he visibly softened on immigration…..DURING the campaign he was against DACA and ALL illegals had to do it the “right way”….remember he was going to put a “door in his beautiful wall” so they could return to the US after gaining lawful entry……after he was elected he announced he now had a “heart for them” and there was NO large scale deportation of illegals and while his DoJ did allow DACA to passively die they were still taking applications and issuing work permits to those in it while it did so
Wrong
you can say what you want but facts are facts….I was there….so deal with your OWN reality and I’ll continue with what really happened
the amazing thing is you have 6 of your own lemmings following you around in agreement with no accurate historical recollection
PDJT was a four year hostage situation, starting with Pence’s assassination of Gen. Flynn, Session’s betrayal to the Mueller gang, and Mitch’s total Senate sellout.
It is remarkable that DJT got anything done while in the hostile CCCP+CCP nation of DC and so many literal traitors (making war on the Constitution and the bedrock american people).
Hostage/Revealer situation. The American People were/Are the hostages. The #1 accomplishment of President Trump was/is the Reveal.
no matter his situation he did not need to IMMEDIATELY pivot after the election on the Hag and his immigration stance….makes his promises DURING the campaign appear disingenious
Let’s not forget the lock Hillary up promise, or the “I’ll tell you who really brought down the Twin Towers”And if I recall wasn’t Ann Coulter calling for impeachment unless he followed up on his border wall promise?
“Unfortunately, he is not mentioning Donald Trump’s name to give credit for them.”
dead wrong.
In the above clip De Santis referenced Trump’s name twice for his border policies.
Wrong!
I want to see one day’s worth of illegal border crossers from El Paso shipped to Martha’s Vineyard. They lost their minds over 50 Venezuelans? How about 15,000 from all over the world including Africa, Asia, and the Middle East.
I think Chapel Hill NC would be a great destination as well.
I live too close to that liberal paradise and believe me we have our fair share of illegals.
Wrong bobby boy, so wrong. Pull your head out and get some fresh air. Oh and stay away from cnn, trolls like you should get a real job
Were the state of Florida to form a NGO for immigrant support services the USG would pay the State of Florida to ship the illegals to the sanctuary cities
LOL
On Ron’s payroll much ?
Someone needs to inform Ron’s little Ukrainian hire that the readers on this site have powers of discernment and do not succumb to gaslighting.
All I know is that Trump and DeSantis need to be political allies (perhaps even a team) two years from now and not adversaries.
DeSantis would be yet another saboteur.
…and you know that, how?
Because he supports Ukraine against Russia.
Because he doesn’t believe the 2020 election was stolen. He isn’t America First MAGA.
Indeed, they need to be. They have to be at least rational actors. We can survive anything but De Santis v. Trump would nuke Maga. Both men understand the concept of mutually assured destruction. Both men have the ability to communicate and avoid this disaster. Neither will ultimately survive it.
DeSantis wants to win the presidency someday. There is no evidence that he is into sabatoge.
DeSantis has not uttered “MAGA” or praised President Trump in recent memory.
If DeSantis was to publicly ally himself wholeheartedly with President Trump, an allegiance to America First, MAGA, and we Trump supporters, his political motives would not be in question .
Abbott and DeSantis are highlighting the immigration issues. A friend from the DC area told me Abbott really needs to stop sending the illegals here it’s crushing our system. With wide eyes I responded,” What do you think hundreds of thousands maybe millions are doing to ours? There have been 4 million since Biden took office? Response,”Well I didn’t hear that just how they are overloading our system”. SMH… should I add several of their kids are at UVA. Total liberal indoctrination.
It’s more of if the nice person on the tub didn’t tell me about cuz, it didn’t happen or isn’t occurring. It is also NIMBY
Can someone direct me exactly where in the constitution where illegals are covered ?
In the leftist/lawfare footnotes, right beneath the same-sex “marriage” amendment.
It’s next to the part that states that if you are illegally in the Country and you give birth, your child is automatically an American citizen.
“invasion”
WE, the PEOPLE
Time to redistribute the burden that Biden’s strapping on states’ residents.
It’s flipping amazing when a post mentioned RD how infected it becomes
it is amazing the loyalty given to a man displaying such disloyalty
The MSM found another person they can sway away from Trump. Their campaign is working on those who’s minds are pliable, and they are using psychological tactics to accomplish their objective. That way you don’t even realize that you have been duped. Even today a high percentage of news on MSN involves smearing Trump with lies, while ignoring Biden’s corruption If you do not understand that DeSantis megadollar donors will instruct him to take actions detrimental to you and I, then you haven’t been paying attention. Donald Trump is the ONLY untainted candidate, which is a requirement to govern indiscriminately If you always do what you’ve always done. You will always get what you’ve always gotten. President Trump broke the mold, while Ron DeSantis is that mold. I like DeSantis however he chose to accept large contributions from people he is now beholden to. Trump doesn’t shoot himself in the foot, and even that notion was placed in your head. He simply governs differently as he is a unique character who loves America.
Bernard Kerik stated publicly (and I hate to think it) that the deep state will **** PDJT if he refuses to back off a run. The ultimate “if all else fails insurance plan”. DeSantis plan is to step right up if that happens.
Jeb!
DeSantis had a tough likeminded legislator backing him up with full funding no problem.
Trump didn’t have that
But hey never miss an opportunity to slam Trump is that what doing??
Question for the Treepers:
If you didn’t have the financial wherewithal to fund your own campaign, would you refuse Wall Street donors?
Are you now funding underfunded MAGA candidates? Those that Wall Street wouldn’t fund – or doesn’t know about?
—-
I guess I’m wondering if anyone will meet the purity test of some conservatives.
Trump almost didn’t meet conservatives’ “purity test” when he ran. But I’m happy I voted for him – twice – and would vote for him again.
DeSantis is not getting the big Wall Street Donor Class. That’s Democrat territory: JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs etc.
He is getting money from Susquehanna’s Jeff Yass in Pennsylvania, Citadel’s Ken Griffin who just fled Chicago to go to Miami, Ken Mangone -, the Home Depot founder, Paul Tudor Jones of Florida and Peter Thiel of California and so on. These are NOT Wall Street types at all. NONE are in NYC. For a reason.
Do your homework.
Dude, yes DeSantis is. Do your homework.
Plus, Ken Griffin is an unrelenting Trump America First hater. He is anti-MAGA a major globalist and virulently anti-Populist Nationalist.
Truly I cannot believe how uninformed you are if you don’t know who and what Ken Griffin is.
Bloomberg had an article yesterday that Ken Griffin would consider being Treasury Secretary in a DeSantis administration.
So you like pay for play, huh.
Th Home Depot founder is a pal of one of my clients who owns restaurants in Buckhead. They threw a fund raiser for Trump. If he is now getting funding for DeSantis then you cannot make him out to be a stooge. The conservative purity test will be the death of us all. It is primarily knee jerk with no strategy. It is actually similar to playground cooties.
Fundraising for Trump could also be nefarious.
Look at their audits to see >truth.
People with evil intentions also ride the Trump train; Don’t be fooled.
Ex DeSantis using Trump to further his err I mean the Cabal’s agenda.
Koch.
so fearless Desantis sat back and watched Gov. Abbot for MONTHS……
BEFORE he “acted” and hopped on Abbots band wagon, but also just in time for the fake news GOPe’s to prop this turtle up on his POSTerior giving him all the credit and none or scraps to Gov. Abbot.
Once you see the strings…..you can never un-see them.
As for FL governor spending funds extrajudicially, one of his jobs is to prevent the invasion of his state.
If xx% (??) of illegals (invaders, many criminal or genocidal) wind up in Florida, he’s still legally defending his state IMHO.
You are 100% correct and in addition Governor DeSantis hires good people. Trump hired one back stabbing bozo after another: Jeff Sessions, Christopher Wray, Bill Barr, Generals McMaster and Mattis, Mike Pence and finally trusted Fauci and Birx – and each one of them along with dozens of others all stabbed him in the back and stabbed us in the back.
I want DeSantis and Trump to EARN my vote. I want them to go after each other on the issues and policies and one emerge victorious. DeSantis is not Jeb Bush, If Trump goes after DeSantis on a personal level then he will reap a whirlwind. DeSantis is as tough as Trump. If Trump is running he must run a different campaign where he ONLY goes after DEMOCRATS. Attacking DeSantis on a personal level will be the political mistake of his life, but maybe he can’t help himself.
I will happily vote for either of them.
Hiring someone involved in corrupt Ukraine politics is NOT smart.
Would be interesting to know if the corrupt gopE stooge DeSantis hired anyone from the Lincoln Project like Etch-A-Sketch Stevens or Steve Snit for brains. I wouldn’t be a bit surprised.
Wrong. Republicans were not even talking immigration, building walls, or reforming bad trade policies before Trump came in the picture. Republicans stood by and did nothing while small businesses were destroyed in this country. Then they bailed out large corporations smiling all the way to the bank while corrupting our country. The same Republicans have sat back and have done nothing about the consolidation of large corporations in this country.
DeSantis wouldn’t even have his job without Trump so stop the nonsense.
DeSantis is already posturing his 2024 run for President by distinguishing “criminal aliens” and “migrants.”
Wrong, Governor. It is a criminal act to break into a country. They are all “criminal aliens.”
He went from saying “migrants” to “people.” Later, like in 2023, he can say he wants to work with Congress to let in these “people,” but, of course, keep the “criminal aliens” out.
There will be no straying from the playbook.
48 years ago large numbers of illegals began moving into my community. It could have been stopped long ago, yet politicians largely ignored the issue. They will continue to ignore the issue as long as megadonors finance campaigns. The American taxpayer foots the bill for illegal immigrants, while the benefits of illegals are realized by someone else. IMO: Most people understand the high costs of illegals and half of them don’t care. We pay for their gain while effectively eroding wages, particularly in lower paying jobs. My children entered the workforce making less money than if the illegals had been stopped at the border. It would be a fools errand to believe that DeSantis will stop illegals. Ron is the approved Unipart replacement for Trump., and the flow of cheap labor will not stop.
I just remembered something.
Back in 2015, a certain Florida congressman announced he was running for Marco Rubio’s Senate seat, as Rubio had promised to not run for re-election should he lose the presidential primary. Fast forward to the following year. Rubio lost the presidential primary, but broke his promise and announced he was running for re-election. That certain Florida congressman immediately dropped out of the Senate race and endorsed Rubio. His name? Ron DeSantis.
DeSantis has thus already demonstrated once before that he is willing to drop out of a race if a candidate he deems to be better than himself enters it. So in the event he announces before Trump does, he will be facing a test. If he doesn’t drop out once Trump announces, then that will be irrefutable proof that he intends to run against Trump and not merely for himself.
It must be anguish for DeSantis and, for that matter, Nikita Hailey, Mike Pence, Johnny-Boy Kasich, wondering when Trump is announcing. 😂😂😂. You know they’re glued to EVERY Trump rally, waiting for the end, cringing at the Q references. 😂😂. Just glorious.
How we know that Martha’s Vineyard was a publicity stunt to change the narrative and take the attention away from Trump because of the Mar-a-Lago raid.
Right on cue, today polls are out in Florida saying DeSantis beats Trump in Florida.
What a gaslighting laugh and a half.
Even Rubio appearing on Fox News talking about illegal aliens. Rubio, who wanted to partner with Schumer on amnesty.
Yes, DeSantis is the corrupt gopE’s dope to split the MAGA coalition.
The gopE still thinks we are stupid.
Thank you groomer
Do illegal aliens actually have the rights the Lawfare commies keep espousing? This is like catching someone breaking into your house, doing nothing other than putting him in a cab, and then having a law firm take it upon themselves to sue you for violating the burglar’s right to be allowed in your house. This is insanity.
Unfortunately, the courts have ruled that these dregs have standing in our courts the second they sneak in…which is why President Trump made them wait in Mexico to have their cases heard and the Biden Regime has created a conga line of unvetted third world debris who are simply marching right into the country.
The national media should look in the mirror. It’s they who refuse to cover the illegal immigration crises Biden created.

Wow. Who would have thought??/// The democrats would give money to and support Ron DeSantis…I’m so shocked.///
There’s something to be said in having a candidate with real voter appeal and a conservative record who can win in’24 in the event Trump is prevented from running. Yes, DeSantis is funded in the traditional fashion and is not DJT. But there has to be a plan B. Sundance’s work in revealing the strings should not be used to destroy whatever chance we might have to prevent another Democrat from holding the White House. I’m not ready to pull the plug because De Santis was silent for a week after the raid or has bigger ties to Wall Street and the GOP machine. I like De Santis second to Trump, but folks, this is realpolitik. Let’s not do our own graves. As long as PDT lives and breathes I would vote for him again in a heartbeat.
MAGA is economic security is national security.
MAGA is Main Street vs Wall Street.
You are still stuck in Democrat vs Republican.
MAGA left that behind.
There is nothing MAGA about DeSantis.
Desantis without Trump purging the Pelosi,Schumer,McConnel crowd along with the entire bureaucracy in DC is a waste. An improvement over Joe but a waste leaving all the same actors in place.
sure they hate him but Trump is the one they fear totaly and for good reason.
Here you go again. You don’t know independents like myself, you do not speak for me, and you will NEVER persuade me to vote for DeSantis if he runs against President Trump.
Trump 2024! Ultra MAGA!
It’d be monumental if all the state’s governors that don’t have sanctuary status organized to transport these illegals to the sanctuary cities. Do it all in one or two days. Bombard them and upset their citizens so they ‘get it’.
Sundance gets DeSantis, DeSantis is McConnell’s puppet.
Show me when DeSantis has demanded to Fix2020
or
when he last talked about CIA/Disney/Child Trafficking.
I read that the aliens went from Texas to Florida, then flown to Martha’s Vineyard.
Texas authorities have opened a criminal investigation into Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ shipment of nearly 50 migrants from Texas to Florida to Martha’s Vineyard last week.

So all of it a stunt on DeSantis’ part if they were never in Florida to begin with. Oh what a wicked web we weave when first we practice to deceive.
