A week ago, Colorado senate republican candidate Joe O’Dea said on CNN, “I don’t think Donald Trump should run again.” He quickly added, ” I’m going to actively campaign against Donald Trump and make sure that we have got four or five really great Republicans right now; Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley and Tim Scott.”
President Trump blasted O’Dea the following day {link}.
Today, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis picked Joe O’Dea as his only 2022 endorsed senate candidate {link}, recording a robocall for O’Dea that says, “Hello this is Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. America needs strong leadership and desperately. That’s why I’m endorsing Joe O’Dea for U.S. Senate. Colorado, please vote for Joe O’Dea.”
Keep in mind, Ron DeSantis is a governor who campaigns on his success as a governor and has been rallying exclusively for governor candidates. However, despite not endorsing the republican candidate in the Colorado state race (Heidi Ganahl), Governor DeSantis went out of his way to support the only explicitly anti-Trump Senate candidate in 2022, Joe O’Dea.
When Paul Ryan endorsed Ron DeSantis, you could argue that DeSantis never asked for it. When Jeb Bush endorsed DeSantis, again you could argue that DeSantis never asked for it. However, the transparency of DeSantis endorsing O’Dea who has stated his intent to actively campaign against any MAGA candidate… well, you can’t say that had nothing to do with DeSantis.
Face it.
This is what is clear.
The DeSantis 2024 organizers are a mixture of allied republican establishment figures, corporate party donors and former Ted Cruz base supporters (Never Trumpers) who have united in common cause to stop the MAGA working-class coalition from taking full control of the republican party. An endorsement for DeSantis from Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger is increasingly likely as soon as the midterm election is over.
Ron DeSantis is increasingly being exposed by his own actions/inactions and the actions of others.
Let us not pretend any longer.

I could smell the establishment GOP in the Florida winds over the spring and summer. When DeSantis went into the bunker on the day of the FBI Mar-a-Lago raid, remained silent for 5 days, and then exited bunker with a new establishment brand image crew and communications team, it was obvious what just happened.
We accept things as they are, not as we would wish them to be. 94% funded by Wall Street hedge fund managers, billionaires and multinational corporations,… to the tune of over $200,000,000….. with a national campaign launch, book launch and national television advertising strategy…. It became brutally obvious.
Ron DeSantis in 2024 is Jeb Bush + Ted Cruz in 2016.
- Five Days in Bunker following Mar-a-Lago Raid 8/9/22
- No expressed support for Donald Trump following Mar-a-Lago raid 8/9/22.
- New brand image consulting team 8/14/22
- New communications team 8/14/22
- National advertising campaign
- 94% billionaire and corporate funding
- Raised $200+ million for state governor race?
- Cancels Lee Zeldin fundraiser after meeting with New York real estate donor who supports Hochul
- Endorsed by Club For Growth (C4G)
- Voted to support TPP trade agreement and Obama Fast Track trade authorization
- Supports all Ukraine funding and U.S. government spending in Ukraine
- Endorsed Florida Red Flag Laws, most firearm confiscation of any state
- Silent over the 100 Florida citizen J6 detainees (largest number in nation)
- Asked legislature to criminalize boycotts of Israeli companies, including pharmaceutical companies
- No support for E-verify system or employment law against illegal alien hires
- Endorsed by Paul Ryan
- Endorsed by Jeb Bush
Sooner or later people have to admit the obvious.
Ron DeSantis is a generally good governor, but he is being dishonest in his national intents.
Q: Why would O’Dea antagonize Colorado Republicans?
A: Because NeverTrump O’Dea wasn’t elected by Colorado Republicans. He was sElected by Colorado’s Sec. of State Jena Griswold and her army of computer-generated Phantom Voters and her Dominion CheatWare.
And they elected him to lose.
Griswold has already picked her own opponent: ZuckBucks ringer Pam Anderson.
Republicans elected Tina Peters. But Griswold installed her own choice Anderson, leaving Coloradoans to choose between a Soros Cheater or a Zuckerberg Cheater.
So why wouldn’t she also install her own Never-Trump Designated Loser Joe O’Dea over MAGA candidate Ron Hanks? She’s already chosen other Republican candidates.
So when you hear NeverTrump O’Dea bashing True President Trump, remember–that’s his job, so he can throw the election to Sen. Bennett.
It’s the Colorado Way. ……………..
Rest in the Vine: The Rocky Mountain Way: Jena Griswold Installed “Republican” Joe O’Dea
So He Could Throw the Election to Michael Bennett
BTW, even if he wins, he’s a Democrat.
No BUT Trump 2024,
Dang! Why can’t the “big wig” politicians find a way to be pro America! Whatever happened to “American” companies, America loving politicians who want good things for the country without selling the Constitution down the river? The rot is so deep and so wide only someone like Donald J. Trump was honest enough to see it, point to it, ridicule it and love the country at the same time.
My God, GOP, you have a chance to be great, but you’d rather be rich at the expense of the country and the power you think you want/need/crave. We the People are the country. Why do you want to destroy us? Why did you turn your backs on the good? Wake up. We see you, and you look a lot like evil…if you don’t pay for your crimes in this life, you will in the next. God bless Trump, MAGA, and the United States of America (We the People).
👍
Not enough money in that, apparently. 😒
^^^^^THIS^^^^
money
Looks like he’s got “The Shining”…
I think the answer is Make America Godly Again.
Unless we, as a nation, truly return to our GENUINE Christian roots, forget it.
We even have ro get back to closing business establishments on Sundays! It works for Chick-fil-A!
These Communist symps believe with all their wicked hearts that RNC, DNC, Big Corporate Media, WEF, U.S. FEDGOV bureaucracy, and all the rest of the burgeoning global system now have control of politics and politicians. Terds like De Santis are wannabe playahs in the new world order. None of them would behave with such bizarre brazen confidence if they did not believe/know that the Dominion vote-fix was already in. Now they are just going through the motions of campaigning. Sound & fury… What a jerkwater snake De Satan turned out to be.
LOL or CryingOL.
Maybe DeSantis honestly thinks O’Dea is the best candidate? Stop being led around by the nose.
now that is laughable
Alrighty then!
So, DeS is ALL right, and thousands here disagree ?
Hah Hah Hah Hah Hah Hah Hah Hah Hah Hah Hah Hah
Perhaps O’dea is “the best candidate” but best for whose agenda?
President Trump had already said that MAGA Americans in CO would be too smart to vote for O’dea”.
If young Ron “honestly thinks” otherwise then he’s not “smart” and/or not a MAGA ally.
“is he just another lucky immigrant or is he connected to CHINA?”
The answer is simple – both.
Might be time we start considering writing President Trump’s name in for Governor of Florida..
Then you get Guvnah Crist 2.0. And the wrath of millions of p.o.ed Floridians. This article, while spinning some truth, is pure voter suppression this close to the election.
I have been a long-time supporter of this site, but the continued bashing of DeSantis right before an election smacks of jealousy or voter suppression. Neither is a good look.
If and when DeSantis announces for a Presidential run, then bring out your big guns, but not just before a key gubernatorial election.
Bad tactics. Bad timing. Really, really bad look.
The more I pay attention to all of this mess, the more I want to look away. I am going to check my other game cameras.
Can you refute the bullet points above? I cannot.
I was impressed as anyone with DeSantis right up until 8/9 a day that will live in infamy. 8/9 is right up there with 9/11 as an attack on America and DeSantis said what about it?
I know it’s disappointing, disheartening. I don’t want to believe it but there it is…
Shall we pretend not to see?
8/9 is not right up there with 9/11. 3000 people died on 9/11. That’s like the left saying 1/6 was right up there with 9/11.
But I agree with you about Desantis.
Or, 8/9 could be looked upon as the beginning death of an entire Nation.
I disagree! A nation died on 8/9. Can we resurrect it?
You can choose to hide your head in the sand but it will get you nowhere.
My governor DeSantis won’t be Florida’s governor after he wins re-election because he will be running for POTUS for the next 2 years and won’t give a fig about the state of Florida or Floridians.
I’ll take Don’t be STUPID for $ 1000, Alex.
Scumbag Charlie Crist was already your governor and you voted for him twice.
However, I did not.
So you gonna stay home on Election Day?
“Bad tactics. Bad timing. Really, really bad look” for Ron DeSantis.
Perzactly!
The truth has no agenda, nor tactics, nor timing, and looks the same all the time……. yesterday, today, tomorrow, mid terms, 2024, whenever.
I like that comment Charlotte.
One more thing, the ad with DeSantis’ wife was so obviously Uniparty GOPe inspired, it was nauseating.
MAGA Americans stick to the issues affecting real people. You can always tell the difference.
Let’s go Yesli in Virginia’s 7th!
Sorry Sato422 I agree with Alligator Gar, Now is not the time to bash DeSantis. If Crist becomes Governor he will probably implement the CDC vaccine schedule for children, that is a huge problem since I have school age grandchildren. I do see the writing on the wall with DeSantis but right now there is no other option but to support him. I will be the first to curse him if he goes up against President Trump.
I agree. I am a Floridian. I can honestly think of no reason to bash DeSantis…unless you are trying to split Conservatives. So what if DeSantis endorses someone you don’t like? DeSantis has been a great Governor…I can think of no decisions he has made that I disagree with.
Try not to be a sheep.
Newsflash!! Sometimes having a discussion involves not agreeing.
Oh the irony.
Says about self: Can’t think of anything “I disagree with” Ron on. (Didnt read Sundances article?)
Says to others: “Try not to be a sheep” ie someone who disagrees with or has concerns about any of Rons decisions.
Apparently seeking truth and asking questions is baaaaaad. Lol.
that is the point of this discussion
I will make it simple
Desantis for governor – Yes
Desantis for president – NO!
Plain Talk.
Yep, simple.
Bad timing for DeSantis to come out and support an anti-Trumper from Colorado. I won’t vote for DeSantis. He’s part of the uniparty!
I agree. I don’t know what the purpose of bashing DeSantis is. It does not help anything. It splits Conservatives. Neither DeSantis NOR Trump has announced a run for POTUS.
Is Sundance voting for Christ or DeSantis? Or not voting at all? The answer to all three of those questions says a lot.
Exposing the truth is bad then?
Exposing DeSantis is not bashing DeSantis. I’m glad to have the info. And it’s certainly NOT voter supression.
maybe you should level your angst at RDS for campaigning for POTUS this early….he should not be making national moves when he is running for the governor of a STATE
Misinformation a la MSM is voter suppression, facts are not
“Bad tactics. Bad timing. Really bad look”.
Talking about Rons choice to campaign for Never Trumpet O dea after President Trump publicly said CO MAGA voters were too smart to support O’dea?
If so, then I agree. This is a pithy and apt description of Rons very bad decision.
There has been discussion about the things that aren’t quite right about Ronnie for months, so this isn’t new.
The scary thing is that DeSantis has a proven track record of success that Cruz or Jeb! could never point to when they pulled the wool over some eyes.
This makes him very dangerous.
Exceedingly so. And we might be asking how it is that the reality beneath the surface of both Florida and its actual laws and policies and culture and of DeSantis is so different from what it’s made to seem.
not really
if one recalls correctly, accolades stuck to both men for quite some time
He supports war in Ukraine and TPP, these are recorded as well.
He really doesn’t, he has a right sided propaganda machine that promotes things that a completely unsuccessful as being a success.
Take banning abortion in Florida, which has failed and had no possibility of actually surviving the state constitution when passed.
Anyone hear of that? Nope!
Take the Disney / RCID redistricting, which isn’t going to survive in court.
Hear anything on that lately? Nope!
How’s that non existent Florida state defence force doing?
The unfunded one with less than 400 people and zero legislation changes that will not survive. You’ve basically got a volunteer road side trash clean up crew for a year.
How’s constitutional carry, open carry, unbanning the banned ammunition coming along? … Crickets!
How’s that don’t say gay bill that doesn’t actually stop teachers from discussing sex with kids doing? … words mean things!
If you actually pay attention and read the bills, understand the statues and our state constitution you’ll quickly get that these are political con jobs.
The Right’s media is just a juxtaposed version of CNN telling voters a pile of garbage.
Yes, with a few well orchestrated stunts for propaganda.
Here’s a concise explanation of how the information explosion works both ways. Deep State knows a lot about us and we know a lot about them that stayed under wraps for many years. Richard Fernandez is an honest analyst:
https://pjmedia.com/richardfernandez/2022/10/21/the-civilization-that-knew-too-much-n1636373
I might be wrong, but as I recall, Jeb was a good governor of Florida. However, that was before he ran for president and showed us what he was really all about.
Then candidate Donald J Trump with his love of country ,blood and guts and his most unique set of skills , as well as what most likely totaled over $100,000,00. Of his own money showed us what Bush was.
If not for his courage we would have had another Bush as-swipe in the Whitehouse today.
To date the Trumps have lost billions for the sake of freedom and peace.
The so called Republican Party does not appreciate that minor sacrifice one bit.
Instead they fund anti MAGA candidates and defund Trumps endorsed
Candidates.
Just imagine if all those people Trump endorsed were left blowing in the wind without Trumps support.
With the worst political environment in fifty years the senate and house would surely stay Democrat..
Never forget that.
Sorry for the typo guys , it was not 100 thousand dollars Trump spent it was 100 million of his own dollars he spent.
Jeb was ok as governor. He was always open-borders and squishy though.
The Opioid Crisis was spawned in South Florida under his and Crist’s Administrations..
That’s why he is TeB! – Not so sure of your assumptions – The thing that IS dangerous is that Uniparty /Gope / Paul Ryan-Murdoch Fox / Old Crow etc (plus Deep State ) are ALL IN against PDJT and MAGA , no more portending and they will try to adjust playbook to avoid Jeb/Cruz flameouts ( a subtle allusion to Top Gov’s jet boy commercial s// )
That literally made no sense.
Jeb was a really good governor.
Keep in mind they this was the guy who almost lost to a crack smoking communist fruitcake in his quest for the Florida governorship. If it hadn’t been for Trump, Florida’s west coast would still be without power and underwater literally and figuratively.
Lol. Desantis. The reason trump wins is he brings all working class fractions together. Trump isn’t normal politics. To suggest Desantis could do the same, he just isn’t that electrifying, more like non dole with a stick.
Kari lake ….? She’s much hotter but still not trump.
Matt Gaetz could be trump. Stop with this Desantis crap. He’s great, but he’s not got the magic of trump, never will.
Remember governor Walker? He lasted about 30 seconds in the ring with trump. Desantis is the latest shiny thing – like JEB! Or Walker, or Thompson what’s his name?
You are more than likely correct. DeSantis is being billed as the non-tweeting, more reserved
President Trump. If one looks at the facts one realizes he is a charlatan and that is indeed
disappointing in one many had hopes for being the VP candidate in 2024 and then carrying
the torch in 2028. But, better to find out now (thanks Sundance) than later as with
Mike Pence.
However, there will be another candidate that could carry the torch – perhaps Kari Lake.
I certainly hope she doesn’t disappoint MAGA. However, there is always the possibility.
I am not sure President Trump is even going to run again. If we do not take control of Congress he may decide not to run.
the election was stolen
Kari lake ….? She’s much hotter but still not trump.
As of right now Kari Lake is the next great hope after VSGDJT. Undefeated against the press.
I hate to have to qualify her status but as of the last six years my trust meter has been shattered.
Fred Thompson?
he is the “token” leader in more ways than one…..Nanzi gave the “Vice Chairman” position to the mega traitor Liz and it is she who actually runs the proceedings if you watch any of their “productions” they have put together…. just as there is no legitimate committee so constructed meaning they do NOT have the power to subpoena this adjustment to their composition gives them an air of importance and legitimacy
Very very dumb move by Gov. DeSantis. I will not forget this.
Now can we please dispense with the DeSantis for President postings?
I apologize for mispeaking – I meant “please stop with the pro DeSantis postings for president”
Unforced error. RON ‘22 is JEB ‘16 until further notice. DeSantis needs to break bread with PDJT or he is running against the man.
DeSantis has that thug look about him. Kind of makes you wonder – all the help he was able to get after Ian – seemed rather miraculous -did someone pull some strings to get the ball rolling? Make him look great – a big plus for a 2024 run – see what I did – I can do the same for America. Thing is – he will never be Trump. Ever. Trump has class. And experience with the DS. And if Ron does run – Team Ron – get that man a tailor. His suits look sloppy. Maybe DJT could recommend someone.
If it wasn’t an Election Year, Ron would have had nothing from the joketato mal-administration.
once again, Florida has had hurricanes for decades and the protocol has been in place
for decades with some fine tuning over the years. DeSantis is responsible for almost
nothing except holding press conferences.
And, I still say that rather than a photo op of DeSantis flipping pancakes, I would
prefer a MAGA politician yielding a chain saw clearing trees from the roadways.
You simply do NOT know of what you speak. The recovery from hurricane Ian has been exceedingly swift. Florida has indeed had hurricanes forever, go back and compare and contrast.
You may dislike Governor DeSantis, but you nor the proprietor of this blog can dismiss the rapid recovery. Especially Sundance who is in the impacted area. Yes protocols are in place, but they are constantly tweaked. DeSantis and his first emergency management director Moskowitz tweaked and upgraded. They had a dry run with Dorian.
Sundance is correct it’s people on the ground getting this done, but they wouldn’t be there if they were not getting paid. Trust me the construction company involved with the bridge can drag out a project, I know because they are from my area.
Soon the dust will settle and we’ll find out what the tab is for Ian recovery, how much came out of our state rainy day funds and how much from the feds. We’ll be able to make better judgements on the recovery then.
Bottom line though, the buck stops with DeSantis. If the recovery was floundering plenty here would no doubt be castigating DeSantis. Just as he would deserve blame, he also deserves credit. So dismissing his efforts and leadership with Ian recovery shows that you are not objective in any way. Again go back and look at recovery from other storms. I’m a Floridian and I’m telling you the Ian recovery is nothing short of miraculous.
I have no idea what Governor DeSantis’ intentions are as far as running for President and quite frankly I don’t care. Whatever they are we’ll all know and deal with them when the time comes.
Sundance has been complimentary to RDS on his handling of Ian.
Yes I do know of what I speak. I spend a good portion of the year in Florida.
My sister lives in Key Largo, my family has a home on Marco Island and I visit
friends in Naples, St. Augustine, Clearwater and previously Pine Island annually.
Our family used to have a home in Sarasota.
Also, my nephew has a management job with FEMA and because of all this, I am
very informed about what is going on. ……for decades. I am in my 70’s so I have
a lot of information from over the years.
I don’t care who or what you know. If you are of the opinion that DeSantis had nothing to do with the rapid recovery, once again you are NOT being objective or honest.
Newsflash, I’m a native Floridian, there are many Florida residents on this site and we damn well know the recovery from Ian has been swift.
I get it you dislike Governor DeSantis and you are entitled to your opinion, but not your own facts.
The point I am trying to make and you keep ignoring is that yes the recovery is going well but not because of DeSantis
They have many hurricanes and have been doing this for decades and have streamlined the process
I wondered that you notice not even the dems are hammering him on his
Hurricane Response (not that there is anything to hammer him on he has
done a great job with that) but still they would most certainly try..
But they don;t want to taint DeSantis before they can use him to get
rid of Trump…and as an added bonus if they can get him to run and somehow
win then suddenly FL is up for grabs…
Works for them that is why we are not hearing any real moaning from Dems
on his handling of this situation.
Insightful.
The thing with Trump, and the very reason I voted for him, is he has always loved America, has always been pro America, even before considering a run for president. That is a very rare thing in our supposed politicians in this country. I believe Trump is very sincere in his love for this country. He mirrors my own love for America and her people. I cannot stand the backstabbers and fervently wish they would just LEAVE.
I believe it is the love of country and more importantly, love of family that finally was the decider for PDJT’s run in 2016…..he had played with the idea for decades (early 80s)….he looked around and with Eric and Don Jrs kids he was afraid for them in a future America……along the campaign trail I believe he was saved at one of his many meetings with a conference of pastors and became the weapon of God he was meant to be……he is not nor will he ever be a perfect man on this side of Glory but God does not pick a perfect man for the job, He perfects the man for the job
It was apparent Joe O’Dea is a typical RINO sleazebag from the moment his first campaign ad aired. GOPe is all we get in Colorado. Don’t think he has a snowball’s chance of because of it, but now they can blame TRUMP when he loses big time. Rooting for Heidi Ganahl but not holding my breath. CO was the test market for the mail-in and tricky machines.
‘Waaaaaaaay back when that John Denver hit, “Rocky Mountain High” was all over the radio coast to coast, I knew then it was only a matter of time before old-time cowboy life in Colorado became obsolete.
Thank you for calling of DeSantis’ establishment connection. Even though he might generally be a good governor, people still have the right to know that he is more establishment than grassroots.
This establishment bent seems to be the strongest in his national political endeavors. It would have been best for him to just remain focused on Florida.
It seems that the more engaged a grassroots candidate becomes in national politics, the more establishment they become.
Kari Lake has become a big figure nationally. Hopefully, she remains in the grassroots camp.
I’m glad that Darren Bailey, the grassroots Republican candidate for governor here in Illinois, has not really gained traction nationally as it helps to keep him from becoming enmeshed in the establishment.
I’m guessing that the national GOP and media are largely ignoring Bailey as they don’t think that a Republican can win statewide in Illinois, but I hope that they are wrong.
Bailey is a farmer by trade and isn’t as polished as Lake, who is a broadcaster by trade, so that might also be part of the reason that he has a smaller national stature than her.
Hahahahaha. Lake. BWAHAHAHAHA!
Everybody here was so pro DeSantis when Trump endorsed him. So pro DeSantis during the time the rest of the nation was locked down. So pro DeSantis until the hit pieces started showing up just before a key election. Suspicious cat is suspicious. You people turn your coats so fast it would make Benedict Arnold jealous.
Kari Lake was an Obamabot. Leopards don’t just up and change their spots. She’ll do and say anything to get elected and get notoriety. I keep seeing Lake for VEEP 2024. We know nothing about her. But everybody is so gaga over Lake. Kinda like you were about DeSantis a year and half ago. How quickly you forget that she asked DeSantis to stump with her.
I will gleefully remind all of you of this convo when Lake’s dirty ‘e’ laundry and “big donor” bona fides come piling out of the closet.
There is no “convo!” Just YOU flapping your mouth and feeling the heat from Sundance. “You people” is not a friendly term around here.
Here’s Kari Lake’s wikipedia page. Yep. She has changed parties a lot.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kari_Lake
If Kari Lake becomes establishment, I’ll gladly call her out. No one is above reproach to me. That is why I have no problem calling out DeSantis.
Likewise, if Darren Bailey becomes establishment, I’ll call him out too.
I’ll also call you out, Alligator Gar, for being a world class a-hole. See, no one is above reproach to me.
hear hear….I still call out PDJT on his shortcomings….where there is room for improvement how would they know unless someone tells them
I can honestly say I was never pro Desantis because I could see that he was running for president as soon as he left congress to
Become governor. Same playbook: military service, congress, governor of big state preferably swing state. It was all there. I also am honest by saying he has been great for Florida. I think him being great has to do with him running for president. All of the sound bites and owning the left mean nothing. Action is what matters and he hasn’t taken enough of the actions he should have. If all of the other circumstances weren’t enough for me not to trust him and think he was controlled then the criminalization of companies refusing to do business with Israel hammered it home. Israel owns way more politicians than china and has enough dual citizens in congress. Desantis is just another one owned by zionists.
Looks like Desantis did a fine job on hurricane response which would point to an ability to hire/retain the right people. Interestingly, DJT had failings in that regard (Fauci, Wray, Barr, Pence etc. etc.), but nobody here seems to remember that. I’m not worshiping at the alter of any politician, and if we are going to examine candidates then let’s look at the ones who are running under the same microscope and make the best call – not interested in presidential primaries right now, but winning elections in November. Pretty sure that Florida doesn’t want Crist, so regardless of establishment connections they better vote R
None of the people listed were “DJT failings”.
People who believe they were “failings” are actually revealing theirs. They are in my prayers.
So you would gainfully employed fauci at 400k+ per year cost to the taxpayer? I need prayers, but you need help.
I’ve never like DeSantis. He’s a TPP supporting, social climbing, GOPe hack with a wife that’s the B we all try to avoid at the PTO meeting.
Karl Denninger has been pointing out he’s a big phony for several years – Sundance is not the first.
it is a statistical tie currently here and the Senate race is close as well
Thank you, Sundance! This is where the truth can be read and understood.
O’Dea = O’Dud. I don’t think he can win in Colorado with or without DeSantis or Trump. But the biggest loser will be DeSantis for showin’ “hisself” and flappin’ his jaws when he didn’t need to.
Re-read Sundance’s post from August: “The Managing of DeSantis, Five Days in the Bunker and a New Press Secretary”
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2022/08/12/the-managing-of-desantis-five-days-in-the-bunker-and-a-new-press-secretary/
Almost certain Sundance was FOR DeSantis until he wasn’t. I can’t wait for the same to happen to the new “flavor of the week,” Kari Lake.
Slow your roll… waking up grumpy is bad optics too.
DeSantis for governor and DeSantis being a tool for the establishment for a 2024 run are two different things.
Why is this so hard to understand? He is making his choices and they are not good, unless you’re okay with the Biden republican party.
He didn’t have to endorse anyone from Colorado. And yet he chose to endorse a Republican who “vows to campaign against Trump.”
I can still remember when I thought mitt romney was a good man and Paul Ryan was wonky but kind of cute. I can remember thinking that Mitch McConnell gave a nice speech about Trump when Trump first became president. So another Republican hero has been outed as an establishment jerk. So what? Don’t fall in love with a politician. That’s my advice.
This is always a possibility. Many people are for sale. Even *I* could be for sale I’m sorry to admit. I don’t know what my price might be but I’m lucky enough that no one wants to buy me. I can say my price is most likely far more than they would want to pay for my sorry arse because I’m just a nobody.
you have to go with what you know and RDS has revealed himself to be disloyal and NOT MAGA…..so if SD had a change in heart after the discovery of this what exactly is your point?…… after you have been informed of these facts your continued support is the REAL story here…..WHOSE side are you on anyway because the RDS donors do NOT have America’s best interests in mind when they push for him
I’m very skeptical of Lake because she’s a little too polished. That said, to want her to disappoint just so you can say you told us so is sad.
I can’t wait” for Kari to falter too.
Fortunately, theres no need to wait.
Instead of waiting, pray for young Ron, Kari and any other “flavor of the month” that comes to mind.
Being a “flavor” == being targeted by the swamp demons.
It’s too bad, Ron could have had a great carreer on politics.
When Sundance came up with his early warnings about DeSantis I told people on other sites that Ron will now be watched very closely, and he won’t pass muster for being Pro-Main Street USA, as he will be found lacking more and more often until 98% of the real Americans get that he’s batting for DS promoters.
New proof that he’s working against Real Americans will arise constantly now.
“…well, you can’t say that had nothing to do with DeSantis.”
Agreed. And disappointed.
PREDICTION: O’Dea wins Colorado US Senate seat thus making RDS the coveted endorsement and the face of the new America Last GOP.
More likely O’Dea loses by 6 points or more and they just blame Trump.
Yours is probably a better take Wombat… however the upside if true is the VSGPDJT endorsement is powerful…so let them blame MAGA…🙂💪👊
Last straw.
Thank you, Sundance.
MAGA
Forgot to add NE Senator Ben Sasse (forever Anti-Trumper) to the list for DeSantis. Brought in lil Benny to run the FL university system.
And there was a student furor over that!
God bless, Florida!
Their governor, however, is increasingly knee-capping his chance to ever become president. MAGAs have lived through Republican treachery for too long. Democrats may truly be communists, but we expect their anti- America bs.
Establishment Republicans are in for a rude awakening.
We are in the millions— and we are pissed!
They need to join the Democrap Party and quit trying to hide their lying eyes.
So the 2024 stage is being set more aggressively with each passing day.
Trump Nail, meet GOPe/DeSantis political coffin.
Amen, Betsy!
Does anything other than splitter candidate need to be said about mr. desantis.
I know this is kind of cynical but DeSantis is doing all this not because he believes he can take on, beat President Trump but because he has been told by deep staters he knows that President Trump will not be eligible to run in 2024! He will be taken out of the picture by then and DeSantis believes them and supports them! Godspeed President Trump!
You are probably right
So at this point DeSantis is going to run in 2024 against Trump carrying the flag for never trumpers and the US chamber of commerce. The bigger question is can the GOP reconfigure their primary system to help DeSantis. Popular sunbelt governors do not translate to the rest of the country. I’m not even certain DeSantis can beat Trump in the FL primary (i’d put my money on Trump) which is late in the process anyway.
Joe O’Dea is pro-abortion.
This is not true o live in Florida Desantis biggest donor is Donald Trump. The Bush family are finding Charlie Crist they also funded Andrew Gillum.
They may not be funding him but they certainly want to use DeSantis to get rid of Trump
then suddenly they will “Trump” D Santis… Butnot right now right now he serves both sides main
purpose.. to get rid of Trump..and to get DeSantis out of FL so then FL is up for grabs.
This year Jeb Bush held fund raisers in Coral Gables for Ron. There were articles written about it. They’re easy to find if interested.
We’re not going to take over the GOP unless we have the courage to vote against these awful people. I live in CO, and Gov. DeSantis just made it easy for me to pull the lever for the Democrat. We don’t have a MAGA Republican to vote for, and so I will vote for the Democrat because we have to destroy the enemy within, and we cannot always do that using our own candidates. Sometimes, we’re going to have to destroy the eGOP using the Democrats.
Perhaps vote for the Libertarian Senate candidate running in CO rather than the Democrat?
Flag me?
There is only one person in this country that can successfully handle both foreign and domestic policy. And that person is Donald J Trump.
There’s one truth/fact that has emerged over the last7 years. Whoever is not openly for President Trump and the MAGA Americans is against us. Politicians and candidates who will not unify with PDJT and MAGA are united with the GOPe and the Democrats.
Where did my comment go?
Kari Lake would blow them backstabbers out of the water WITH President Trumps approval!!!
If you are against Trump you are against MAGA and if you are not on board with MAGA then you just positioned yourself as a self-serving RINO.
As a native Floridian I say MAGA-pressure RDS to execute and enforce MAGA policies. Use him just as he will use you and then discard his ass when he breaks rank. He is no savior. He is/was crypto-MAGA so let him know. Same for Senator Rick Scott.
Ron DeSantis in 2024 is Jeb Bush + Ted Cruz in 2016.
DeSantis will lose bigly if the MAGA King runs in 2024.
Hopefully by then, everyone but the Lost 10% will see what the ruling class has in sore for us.
CANADIAN Cruz is worse….he proffered himself as a “constitutional scholar” then ILLEGALLY ran for a position he was ineligible for….he probably thought he could get away with it since he had already won a seat as a US Senator he is unqualified to hold and he still holds it
Thanks SD for exposing this…. we all need to look at him with open eyes. Critical times.
That’s kinda sad. DeSantis must not understand the power of Trump.
“Trump Supporters Need To Come Into The Republican Party On Our Terms, Not Theirs”
-Ex-Republican George Will
The solution is, and always has been, MAGA supporters funding MAGA candates on a ntional, state, and local level. Slates of MAGA candiates that will be evaluated every election cycle, with no passes for incumbants who move to the dark side.
The ruling class will shit a brick the day that happens.
100 million MAGA supporters X $200 = $20 Billion
Now compare $200 to what you and your family pay in all taxes every year.
When the Democrats are destroyed, MAGA will need to become its own party.
Wow, Will is an arrogant little prat
That O’Dea is his single endorsement by DeSantis is a “tell.” Hard to explain that one away.
What O’Dea and others ignore is that that the attacks on PDJT are clearly aimed at MAGA voters, and we just as clearly see that. You can, I suppose, attack or criticize PDJT about a number of things – I have been unhappy with some things – but you cannot condemn him as though he some kind of reprehensible man who should be destroyed.
That is an attack on the American people who appreciate and admire those who stand with them; PDJT, regardless of any faults or weaknesses that any wish to place on him, stood with and for us.
Even before the DeSantis endorsement, I had concluded that O’Dea was just about the only GOP senate candidate that I would not vote for this year, even thought my opinion is not really relevant as I do not live there.
The establishment melt down on candidates like Bolduc, Masters, and Vance, while going all in on O’Dea is very “telling.”
Why are we suppose to think DeSantis is endorsing this guy.. We know why but
what is the reason we are suppose to think? And POTUS came out on Truth and said
bad idea…didn;t name DeSantis by name just linked the article and said Bad idea..
It’s a war between the right hand of the uniparty (McConnell et al) and MAGA. Ron chose the wrong camp.
VERY interesting take, and VERY informative. Thanks Sundance….
Can it be said DeSantis is officially a RINO?
I think some people forget he was part of the swamp before he became
Gov..and he has a Republican friendly congress in FL to help him with his
agenda. Both sides are playing nice with DeSantis because they believe
he is best suited to take out Trump..(notice they aren;t really pushing Pence
cuz they know how the base feels towards him) They want DeSantis to run
to take out Trump..The Rhinos believe they can control him once he is in
and the Dems after he is elected will try and “Trump”him once he has
served his purpose to them.
‘He was part of the swamp before he became Gov’ – Jenevive
I’m trying to think of even one graduate of Hahhhvid Law School who isn’t part of the swamp.
But I’m coming up blank …
Always has been – see his Congressional voting record and his phony campaign commercials.
When people show by their (in)actions and associations ($$$$$), believe them. Keep this article for future reference.
There are splinters in our once deep bench of so-called Republican or Conservative politicians. Stay aware and listen to truth.
I will not vote for Nimrata Randhawa aka Nikki Haley.
nor should you….she is not constitutionally eligible since she is NOT a natural-born citizen….NEITHER parent was a citizen at birth when it requires that BOTH be…….posters here tout Don Jr as a future POTUS where only Tiffany of PDJT’s children is NBC……Ivana and Melania both naturalized AFTER their children were born
Folks, some of you need to wake up. If you have been endorsed by Paul Ryan, you are not on the side of working Americans, not on the side of grassroots conservatives. Paul Ryan organized and oversaw the exodus of incumbent GOP Representatives that gave control of Congress to Nancy Pelosi. It was intentional. If he is supporting a candidate, you can be assured that candidate is GOP Establishment from head to toe.
When Donald Trump was elected, I didn’t really know what to expect. Talk is one thing, action is another. There is a lot of talk from Trump that I don’t like. Fine. But Trump governed as good, or better, than Ronald Reagan.
The economic policies of Donald Trump were what we have been missing since January 20th, 1989. When George H.W. Bush took over in 1989, the Chamber of Commerce/Multinational/Cheap Labor Express crowd took over with him. He started, and Bill Clinton continued and accelerated, the selling out of American Technological Superiority to China.
Donald Trump set out to stop it. But the GOP Establishment, the Democrat Machine, the Bankers and Multinational Corporate Interests did not want that stopped. So they cooperated and they stopped Trump.
If you can’t see that Ron DeSantis has thrown in with the GOP Establishment, the Bankers and Multinational Corporate Interests then you need to stop voting.
The Upper 10% in this country are waging war on the Middle Class. They don’t want an independent minded Middle Class. They want CONTROL and PEOPLE THEY CAN CONTROL.
I am guessing Ron does not read the Treehouse.
His staffers do. But they have us in the GOPe sweet spot, over a barrel. “Whaddaya gonna do, vote for the Demonrat??”
The Very Special Genius is definitely eyes open on this would-be upstart behavior:

Whoops, missed that this point was in Sundance’s own article. Duh…
I’m doing an Emily Latella; “Never mind…”
AND,
Ron DeSantis has not said that the 2020 election was stolen from us.
Bottom Line: Any politican who does not agree with this is Not MAGA and does not deserve MAGA support.
Agree 100 per cent!
He just lost all his luster, in my estimation…
Big corporate donors are going to derail Desantis..
Damn! This is disappointing. He has my vote for governor, but I will not vote for him against Trump in 2024. I was a Desantis for president 2028, but after reading this, I’ll have to rethink that. Kari Lake may be the better 2028 candidate.
Pretty much sums up my way of thinking. Great post.
Israel Firster just like DJT! We are now Kenite-owned folks. Plan accordingly.
Michael, I don’t know what being Kenite owned means. Please explain.
There is some kind of doctrine that the Kenites of today are the Jews, extrapolated from Matthew 13:24-30, John 8:44, Revelation 2:9, 3:9, and other Scriptures.
Replacement theologies just don’t quit, unfortunately bolstered by the behaviors of degenerate “JINOs”…
Thank you, had my Bible handy and looked the verses up. OK got it.
I often think that Jesus has not returned yet because there is just one more person to will call out to Him. I pray for loved ones often w/this in mind. I apply it to all.
What is a Kenite? I have read the Bible multiple times and don’t recall seeing this.
Most scholars agree that a “Kenite” is a descendant of Cain. At the very least, the Kenites were a tribe who helped the Children of Israel in the desert after the Exodus from Egypt, and Jethro of Midian was listed as a Kenite. Other notable Kenites were Rahab and Heber.
Kenites/Canaanites are the sons of Cane – the first murderer (as written in the Bible)
They are against Adam’s line that brought us Jesus Christ.
Not all Jews are Kenites. The Kenites infiltrated all 12 Tribes of Judah and the Israelites back in ancient times as well as today and tomorrow.
They are the people who want to rule over us by deception and temptation to lure us away from our God and His Word.
Kenite’s are Cain’s people which became the 10 tribe ‘enemies of the Israelites’ bloodline collectively known has Canaanite’s. Esau married Hittites of the 10 and became Edomites. The Edomites were conquered by the King of Israel and forced into Judaism which was Pharisee-ism about 100 BC. Herod the Edomite made a deal with Rome to backstab the Israelites to become King. He replaced all of the Levites with his Edomite brethren and controlled the Government/religion. Jesus called them out as not being his sheep (Israelites) and told them that they and their ancestors were murderers of all the prophets including righteous ‘ABLE’, witch links their bloodline back to Cain. The Jews today that control media, banking, Hollywood, porn, ect. are not Israelites. These Edomites are children of the Devil as Jesus told us.
Kenite – owned?
