Fox News is running an hour-long campaign infomercial to support Florida Governor Ron DeSantis winning the 2024 GOP primary nomination. Inside the political messaging, Jeb Bush gives his full-throated endorsement. {Direct Rumble Link} WATCH:
Based on current available evidence, the announcement of a 2024 presidential bid is a mere formality, likely to surface later in 2023, as all the background datapoints reflect the strategic and financial team behind Ron DeSantis have been positioning an announcement since late 2021. One visible datapoint has been his campaign office, specifically his then spokesperson Christina Pushaw, reaching out to a group of Florida influencers and organizing a meeting on January 6, 2022.
.
By the late spring of 2022 the branding and management of the pending Ron DeSantis presidential bid was strongly underway, and by early August 2022, not coincidentally timed with the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago, after an unusual five days in a bunker, a new national campaign team was announced and launched. Everything from that national image launch has been carefully managed, organized and constructed.
With the Florida legislature set to change the law permitting DeSantis to run and remain as governor; and with the intentionally elevated profile and controlled national branding in place; the office of the Florida governor has transformed from a state executive focus to a launch vehicle for higher office. State policies and office advocacy now run through the priority prism of national politics, as the announcement of the DeSantis book launch is simultaneously positioned.
All of the datapoints flow in one direction, Desantis seeking the 2024 GOP nomination. None of the carefully managed policy points are contradictory to a national intention. However, the original question about who is controlling Ron DeSantis remains unanswered. It is with this specific outlook in mind that we can now find Governor Ron DeSantis’s perspective on donor money influencing politics by looking at how he answered this exact question in March 2014.
In March 2014 a young man asked exactly this question. During a Q&A session at Embry-Riddle University, then U.S.Congressman Ron DeSantis, representing Florida’s 6th District, was asked about money influencing politics. Within his answer we can gain an understanding of why 94% of Ron DeSantis donations are coming from the billionaire influence class.
Video prompted to 00:49:11 of the session, where Ron DeSantis says he feels limited campaign contributions are a problem. Congressman DeSantis says that billionaires should be permitted to fully fund political candidates, without limits, as long as the donations are fully transparent.
Beyond the view of billionaires being permitted to fund candidates for office, pay particular attention to the example that DeSantis uses regarding online sales taxes and his opposition to it. Within that specific answer you are about to see a major contradiction, that tells us something significant. WATCH:
.
The K-Street lobbyists and campaign donors DeSantis is describing in the online tax example, are the Club for Growth types who wanted states to deliver national equality on the issue of state collection of online sales taxes.
Apparently, in 2014 Congressman DeSantis was willing to take the C4G donor money and yet not support the online sales tax that would hurt Florida consumers.
However, very quietly in April of 2021, Florida Governor DeSantis signed a law requiring all online businesses outside Florida to charge Florida sales taxes on products ordered by Florida residents. The online tax for Florida residents was projected to net an additional $1 billion in revenue for the state.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Gov. Ron DeSantis very quietly and without much fanfare signed a new online sales tax bill into law Monday, requiring out-of-state retailers to collect and remit sales taxes.
[…] Under the law, “marketplace providers” that aren’t located in Florida will be required to remit sales taxes “when delivering tangible personal property” to consumers. (read more)
As you can see from the bigger picture issue of billionaires purchasing politicians, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis felt massive wealthy interests should be permitted to fund politicians. This is in line with his 2022 position of massive donations from billionaires, hedge fund managers, multinational corporations and Wall Street flowing into his campaign and Political Action Committee coffers.
Simultaneous with this 2022 increase in billionaire funding, DeSantis reversed his 2014 position on online sales tax collection for Florida residents, putting himself in direct alignment with Club 4 Growth and other K-Street lobbying groups he said would not influence his policy. DeSantis received $2,000,000.00 from Club 4 Growth.
Add in the endorsement of Paul Ryan (link), and Jeb Bush (link), and Wall Street republicanism reemerges as the DeSantis platform.
Like Icarus, greedy little Ronnie flew too close to the sun.
To quote Chris Stapleton, “the falling feels like flying till you hit the ground.”
Splat!
They think that millions of us can’t read, are not awake, or can’t connect the dots. “Establishment Ron” will not win the nomination because of the old adage: “Tell me who your friends are, and I will tell you who YOU are”.
Sadly, much as I admire your optimism, leaders are no longer elected in the western world.
They are chosen, not like the Twelve Apostles were chosen by Jesus, but by satans little helpers.
Here in Britain we have an Indian billionaire P M imposed on us, up here in Scotland we are about to have a Muslim imposed as First Minister. The media who question another candidates credentials as she is a “strong” Protestant opposed to child killing and child mutilation – dare not mention his similar stance.
It is called hypocrisy.
So I am sorry for our American cousins, if ” they” want deSanitisied that’s what ” you” will get.
Claims to admire optimism. Notices optimism. Chooses to pour cold water words on optimism.
Choosing to extinguish admirable optimism while claiming to have sad feels == being a double think wet blanket.
Fortunately, as long as more presents are given, changing is still possible.
Rather than responding to optimism and hope with wet blanket words, Breath of Life words will be chosen and shared.
#AmazingGraceIsReal
Or take off the rose colored glasses and face reality.
I can’t think of anyone more optimistic than Kari Lake, it is a shame how that all played out.
Optimism in what??
if I just keep playing and rolling the dice the odds are I may win.
Or if I just hang around long enough something good is bound to happen
Optimism not based on a firm foundation of justifiable expectation is a useless exercise.
I don’t see any evidence that having optimism in this world system or mankind will change it.
However, this is a faithful saying:
for believers all of this this will all work to their salvation.
Kari’s not done yet.
concur
It’s been this way in American politics since the beginning of the 19th century. Smoke-filled back rooms with powerful men choosing national leaders has held sway on who will run our nation since the Jackson era.
What is different today is that they can’t get away with it anymore in private. The Internet opened the floodgates of information, and tiny data points once hidden or disguised are now flashing alarm beacons telling folk “sumthin’ ain’t right.”
TBTB know the old game is no longer working. But they don’t know anything else, or they realize to gain their goals only has one option available, so they’ll double down on its tactics. Unfortunately, history shows that only leads to tyranny.
Don’t give up your battle rifles, America. We may be heading towards a Romanian December 1989 situation much faster than any of us would like. But such a denouement will change the game forever and remove a lot of very bad players.
Community fir ing squ ads may ring out in American history to be as celebrated as Fourth of July fireworks are today.
Sadly, I think you are right; our “leaders” are selected, not elected. Exhibit A is Joe Biden. He couldn’t fill a school classroom-WHEN he bothered to campaign, that is; OTOH, Donald Trump can fill a stadium at the drop of a hat! Biden gets booed everywhere he goes; even when his likeness is shown on a Jumbotron, boos ensue. Yet we’re supposed to believe he was the most “popular” President EVER…
They’re all going down. GOD’s Word.
Victory Now!
You were right about this all the way up till the 2016 election.
GW Bush and then Romney, I mean what choice did we really have?
But Trump upended their strategy in 2016 and he’s still extremely popular and major thorn in their side.
Can they succeed? I have my doubts but then again the corruption in this country has reach unprecedented revolutionary levels. We shall see if the vote is as corrupt as Covid allowed the 2020 election to be.
Seeing Jeb Bush in his camp is all you need to know. Ron is the
establishment candidate. Been setting him up for a while. Saying
and doing lots of things we would like, but he will follow the party
line when called on to do so.
That’s my fear as a Florida resident. The Governor has done many things to admire but was it only a set-up for the Presidential run?
any Bush, anywhere, is still trying to salvage old man Bush’s penchant for the NEW World order he was fond of.
I cringe at the thought of a BUSH emerging into any leadership role under any president. I guess Ron is their guy but the BUSH family has fallen from grace in this country a long time ago. They just don’t know it.
Depends on perspective. They are now part of the lefty in crowd
Actually you are wrong, Ron DeSantis has a very good chance of displacing Trump and many of us are not happy about it.
They don’t know it yet, but they’re going full steam ahead on destroying the Republican party.
Only if they cheat.
Jeb! Yuck!
I actually find this all to be a bit sad. I had thought a couple of yrs. ago that DeSantis might be a good VP for Pres. Trump. He could get the experience he needed with Pres. Trump as his mentor and then move into position in 2028. That has all changed. With DeSantis taking the backing of these people, it reveals how naive he still is as to how the game is played. OR…he’s made his choice of what side of the fence he wants to be on. Either way, he’s off my ‘list’ for now and I wish it wasn’t so. He had great potential. Things could turn…time will tell.
In 2015, I was a ‘never-Trumper’. I actually prayed about who I was to vote for over a 9 mo. period and truly wrestled with my decision. I will only vote pro-life so Dems were definitely off my list. However, I had many reservations about Trump in 2015 which are history now. Reluctantly, I did vote for him. I am so glad I did. By 2020, I was a full supporter (though the jab and the 5g that Trump supported are still ‘issues’ for me).
Our country has never been in such danger. Pres. Trump is not ‘perfect’, but no one is. If for some reason the RHINOS prevent him from being the candidate, I am now questioning if I’ll even bother to vote …which is a big decision for me as I always have and have always believed it was my duty to do so.
Pres. Trump is the ONLY candidate that can prevent our country from being completely destroyed, in my opinion. I love this country and am grateful to have been born into it. Being in my 70th yr., I’m looking now at a better country I’ll soon be traveling to. But I worry for my children and grandson and will fight ’til my last breath for America for their sake. I hope and pray that God will once again be merciful to America. God bless America!
Pres. Trump…Jesus is the Boss! https://rumble.com/vn8kw3-president-trump-gives-all-the-honor-to-jesus-christ.html?mref=lzerp&mc=3ifeq
Why does he wear little jewish skull caps. You cant have it both ways.
Christ said if you dont believe in me you dont believe in the Father.
Neither President Trump nor Mike Lindell are wearing any type of cap in the video.
Don’t answer Don k. He is baiting people. In Jerusalem, out of respect, he wore a skullcap. Old Don k is being a donkey.
What country might that be?
Heaven.
“…….I am now questioning if I’ll even bother to vote …”
Their tactics are working.
Last ditch effort – write in Donald John Trump for President over not voting at all
It always amazes me how people preface their allegiance to President Trump with the “he may not be perfect, but” phrase. Why does President Trump have to be perfect. No other president ever was, not Kennedy, not Bush, not Obama, not even Reagan. Why does President Trump have to meet a higher standard. They are all imperfect men.
Because— they want to block all the “Yah, but— Trump did this … and … he didn’t do that…” crap —that seems to follow whenever anyone says something positive about him.
❤️🦁🐈❤️🇺🇸❤️
I meant 🦁👑 Not 🦁🐈!
I know that’s what they want to block; but these days, one who truly wants to fight for the country needs to learn to be uncomfortable more often.
I refuse to damn PDJT with faint phrase. He deserves so much more than that.
Why the hell would Ron DeSantis want the endorsement of Jeb Bush? If they are trying to deceive the (R) electorate into accepting DeSantis as the “civilized” MAGA alternative, they have to realize that being associated in any way with Jeb Bush would immediately and thoroughly sever any inklings of such support.
It is kinda funny that they believe the Bush family name has any coat tails.
More like arrow-pointed tails
Or Fox News!
For me, it’s an anti-endorsement. ANNYONE Jeb favors is anathema to me.
Nobody is that dense. Somebody is playing somebody.
Isn’t Jeb of the WRONG generation? Isn’t Jeb olllllld … with olllllllld balls?
Poor Ole’ Jeb is still smarting from the shellacking he got from the last time he was confronted with Trump.
Hopefully DS will be too. But he’s got a lot of pseudo cons deceived.
He yearns for a shellacking again, I guess.
“civilized” == a deadly strait jacket peddled by malevolent Bushies and Cruzlims to gullibles and naives.
MAGA succeeds when MAGA is FREE from effete “be civilized” corsets and nurse ratchett “behave” strait jackets
Because Jeb was a RINO that Florida republicans and democrats thought well of as he ran the middle to left game so well – no ones feathers were too ruffled?
It takes lots of money to run for President. And once in office, you need wealthy interests supporting your programs.
Look, there is the other viewpoint that DeSantis is only using Jeb! and the others to gain control. Once he is in office, the hero takes off the ticket-taker mask and vanquishes our enemies.
I have not seen that move being done for good. I certainly saw the other side using that playbook in 2008 and 2020.
Trump still has my vote, because there really aren’t any other good alternatives to restoring freedom and liquidating our nation’s enemies.
Go home to Colomba.
Have you done any of those cool things, Jeb?
DeSantis is just another shrub in a field of Bushes.
Monday he Ron will also be on the David Web show for a hour on Monday.
That bums me out. Ordinarily I like listening to David Webb (and Mark Levin) but I realize that you can’t agree with anyone all the time. Stacy Washington is quickly becoming my favorite on the Patriot Channel.
I had been a Levinite for years. He was even good about Covid. But when Ukraine broke out, something flipped – know not why. I suppose syndication.
He turned into a NeoCon war-loving mouthpiece for all the RINO & DC establishment. Broke my heart, but the damage has already been done.
Levin was nasty about Trump and went so far as to personally attack Sundance.
Yes, but he said he was voting for Trump when Cruz was eliminated . He ended up supporting President Trump prior to the election.
However, I don’t agree with Levin about Ukraine at all.
He lost a lot of credibility with me. He is another pundit who wants to remain relevant and employed by the network.
That five days of silence when the Fbi came and raided President Trump’s home told me everything i need to know about RDS.
Another weasel exposed.
Funny thing … I’m not reading quite so many Ron-pologists here anymore. Perhaps the evidence of his sell-out to the UNI-Party, WEF, Globalist GOPe is simply piling too high to ignore …
One can only hope! I mean all these Never Trump Uni Party elites Ron’s aligning himself with is like being whacked on the head with a two by four! If you can’t grasp the reality of where Ron’s true allegiances lie then you are just not paying attention!
How many times do we need to tread down the Romney, Ryan, McCain (etc.) Road before we figure it out?
Maybe they thought it wasn’t working here and moved on to other sites. One of the biggest DeSantis promoters was pushing that Soros supported Indian dude who is running for the GOP nom yesterday – maybe they’ve done polling.
Vivek is the next “flavah,” all right.
There was a good post made by sunrei earlier on this thread exposing him.
I hope sundance posts about him soon…
They all went to citizenfreepress – a younger crowd there with less real-life experience.
But even there the truth is slowly breaking through a little.
i will never forget what happened in 2020 when the fake corporate media spent 24/7 trying to do a character assassination on President Trump. They had a common goal, influence the voters to vote for their experienced adult who would unite the country and normalize things to ensure Trump was not elected. Then these same people covered up the cheat and lied about J6 events. I will never forget. Cancel your cable and FJBush and his entire globalist family.
Fox Newsom?
Jeb “Cry Me a River,” Bush?
DeSanity?
It’s going to be quite a Clown Car!
Late to the party…I was tending to my (mad)cow, Bubbles…LOL..
Am just an old lady here, and a cynical one at that….
I believe this is not so much as an ‘endorsement’ but more of an official ‘town hall’ or Focus Group type distractionary tactic, with the ultimate aim of finding out, by way of blog comments, where people stand right now.
It affords these people a way to get data and opinions, since most of us just tear up and toss the questionnaires that our selected officials send out.
Keep in mind, the definition of marketing, linked from google:
“the activity or business of promoting and selling products or services, including market research and advertising….”
Research is conducted in many ways…It is intel gathering.
Keep in mind that the RNC favors, and always will, foreign money and not conservative voters, we disagreeable peoples of America.
It’s an endorsement AND an information/opinion/data gathering tactic to help figure out how to proceed.
Ha. I got their “information” right here – it’s something I’m doing with my hand…
One would think that the endorsement of Jen Bush and Paul Ryan would be the death knell for DeSantis’ candidacy.
That’s how out of touch they are.
President George W. Bush is friends with Clinton and the Obamas. Jeb is a tagalong. DeSantis has thrown his political future in with the Globalists. Too bad. He had an eight year presidency after Trump and he blew it. Fox news has also made an ill-advised choice.
Mary these guys like Desantis and obama are set up for their role long ago.
He is what he is to make us think he is something he isnt.
FOX’S CHOICES to go all in on the election steal was their last step in turning conservatives far far away from ever trusting them again.
The folks financing Ron DeSantis are not stupid, so they must know that this endorsement is extremely unhelpful. Extremely unhelpful with Republican voters, that is. But do voters matter anymore? Im not so sure.
im worried that the Republican primaries are going to be gamed like Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania. And other swing states. The sort of money and power that is behind Ron DeSantis is not in the habit of making poorly planned, ineffective gestures. There’s much more going on here than meets the eye. I have a really bad feeling about the upcoming primary season.
Using election integrity concerns as the reason, Establishment state GOPs that have open primaries may make 2024 primaries closed so only registered Republicans can vote.
This will prevent MAGA Trump voters who rage quit the Republican party or are Democrats/Independents who didn’t bother to change their registration t Republican, from having a say in who becomes the 2024 Republican candidate for President.
Obviously, the Establishment DC Republicans will say and do things to trigger more MAGA registered Republicans to rage quit the party meaning they wont be able to vote in the 2024 primary after GOP rule changes are made.
Please. Be prepared. Become a registered Republican. Now. Later is too late.
I am a Republican solely so I can vote for President Trump in the primaries. I encourage others to do the same.
Just do not send the party or the RINOs that run it any money
Most states that have open primaries also don’t have party registration.
When two traitorous RINOs like Ryan and Bush are giving you their support when you haven’t thrown your hat in the ring there is a reason. I’m not sure what it is. It’s likely both these RINOs voted for Biden. DeSantis should refuse their endorsements and get behind Trump. Otherwise his political career has reached its zenith.
I believe that DeSantis and Mike Pence ride in the same sail boat. Go along, get along, and rise to carry out a devious mission when required to do so. DeSantis cannot be trusted to be true MAGA.
We have a Democrat mole in the position of Lt. Governor in the state of Mississippi. It is people like this that are throwing our country to the wolves. When he insisted that there would be no accountability to ensure the last presidential election in MS was not an honest election, red flags went up. After two legislative sessions where elected Republican representatives can’t get a bill out of committee, it is apparent that the Lt. Governor is not a friend of any Republican.
Hide and watch as MS turns into a blue state, but there is hope. We have a strong Republican running against him in the November election. It is time to elect a new Lt. Governor.
BTW, I learned a lot about this yesterday at a local Republican Committee meeting. Whatever you do, get up off your arse and become involved. We can’t sit and hope to win the political wars within this country.
Agree. I find my monthly town R group meetings, where almost everyone is solid MAGA in a see of outside blue, very educational and always a great conversation.
For example, I now know the name of the person to ask about any rules for write-ins on Massachusetts ballots…
Well, however they do it, you can be sure they will never let Trump back in the White House.
BEWARE the RNC!!! They are stealing precincts from the grassroots in order to steal the primaries. Forget open primaries – they’re already stealing the closed ones.
Personally watched it happen in my state & have heard many reports from TX, FL, SC, SD, PA, GA, MD & Heaven knows where else.
Just voting will not stop it. What WILL stop it is each state having FULL R GRASSROOTS precinct participation. How Nebraska kicked Sasse out & how VA won in 2021. Maricopa county had only 38% participation.
So now we all know what to do – LET’S GO! There is still time before November 2024 to change everything.

PAUL RYAN AND JEB BUSH CORRUPT POLITICANS

Excellent analysis. Nailed DeSantis.
Cenk Uyger is on Team DeSantis?
That seems a little over the top.
Though I do like the inclusion of the Dominion Voting Systems logo.
https://dos.myflorida.com/elections/voting-systems/certified-voting-systems-and-vendors/
Florida still uses Dominion voting machines. Florida still uses the Soros linked ERIC voter roll system.
With Guv Ron’s popularity and political clout its interesting to note that rather than being the national leader of election security reforms, Guv Rons been thwarting efforts to make these real changes that will really make Florida’s elections more fair and secure.
Instead Guv Rons offering CON Inc hyped PR stunts and circuses. And appearing on FOX News, of course.
Is FOX News annointed Guv Ron helping the UniParty Schemers set up an Arizona style election steal for Floridas 2024 primary election?
Dunno if anyone caught this incredible release from Alabama’s Secretary of State Wes Allen about ERIC being a false flag operation of some kind.
Allen was in DC on business 15 Feb and made an unannounced drop by ERIC’s DC headquarters at 1201 CT Ave NW, Suite 600.
There was nothing there.
https://www.sos.alabama.gov/index.php/newsroom/wes-allen-finds-vacant-virtual-office-eric-address
Lou Dobbs had Wes Allen on his podcast on February 17.
Allen sounds like a fine man with all the right instincts.
Ronnie the Ingrate; you should have waited for 2028. Now your lust for power has been exposed, which sadly supersedes your loyalty to your mentor, President Trump.
Don’t be an ingrate, wait for 2028!
too late…
First an endorsement from Paul Ryan, then another from George Soros, now one from Jeb Bush. If voters here had a scintilla of common sense the DeSantis campaign would be deader than Nicki Haley’s.
The next question is…
How is Team DeSantass planning to cheat Trump out of the primary?
There will be no Team DeS fingerprints on that one. Bush family money will pay for all of that discreet assistance, obtained with complete deniability when the evidence starts to come out indicating the “Big Cheat.”
Asking for a friend: When does the sho oting begin, and how long will it last?
So DS thinks other states should be forced to be unpaid tax collectors for Florida?
No, and that is not what he said. He, and before him the SCOTUS said, tax laws need to be updated for the 21st century. Before 2018s SCOTUS decision in wayfair, you, the SELLER (nothing to do with the seller’s state) could only be forced to collect sales tax in a state if you had a physical presence in the state, i.e., employees or property in the state. The rule was that they could levy the tax on you because you are availing yourself of the protection of that state’s laws by being present in the state, same reason a state you don’t live in can haul you into court if you get caught speeding in their state. In 2018, as online sales exploded and brick and mortar stores disappeared, states were hemorrhaging sales tax revenue. For example, if I had my building on the Florida side of the GA/FL line and sold all my wares to Floridians, under the old rule, I could just move my building to the GA side of the state line and poof, no more sales tax. The SCOTUS said that if you send enough stuff into a state, then, just like someone driving through the state, you created a connection strong enough that the state can subject you to their laws. All Ron seems to have done here is the exact same thing literally every state with a sales tax did – update their laws to comport with the SCOTUS ruling.
Sorry but that kinda sounds to me a lot like “I was just following orders.”
If Ron was not required to “update” the law, then there was absolutely no reason to be proactive about it.
OK…so how is this “subversive”? There WILL be Primaries…Trump will campaign…DeSantis will do what he will do…citizens will vote their choice… It’s the American way of political discourse. What’s the problem?
We are obviously worried that DeSantis will follow in the footsteps of the other Republicans foisted on by the Repub wing of the Uniparty. They are adept at only one thing: deceiving their electorate. In other words, they don’t do what they say.
President Trump has exposed them all. I wonder why they think that once seeing Republican perfidy, we would EVER go back to them.
Ron DeSantas has an unique opportunity to begin the process of getting the Federal govt out of Floridian’s lives. It appears he will squander all that for the approval of Some pretty despicable people.
CHEATING BY BOTH SIDES.
http://link.frankspeech.com/q/tOXjja5kcy2V7k-VaIKk8rhOJ7kE2QMMortmH5XcbflNDj9DQ5_vbhJLpF
Citizens will vote their choice? Really?
Now you’ve got me wondering whether you got here by time machine… 🤔
Any questions?
Makes me wonder if Ron has been quietly advised that special counsel Jack Smith plans on taking Trump out sometime in 2023 at which time meatball Ron will announce his candidacy. I like DeSantis but the fact that a lot of swamp creatures do as well gives me great pause.
He is a phony and a globalist uniparty scumbag. He voted for TPP and supports the war in Ukraine.
Epic primaries.
Populism vs. coporatism.
.
It’s 2016 all over again.
Paul Ryan has been a busy piece of shit in the last six years.
Sad he let them buy him out. With Jeb and Traitor Ryan behind him, Desantids will lose support from Americans who are paying attention. I wanted him for President Trumps VP, not now.
Desantis has been doing a great job in Florida, and the powers that be can’t abide. They will promote him gone; no longer potent. A puppet.
No one is talking how the UniParty by embracing DeSantis is trying to shuffle him off to the side. What’s the old sating, be careful who you go to bed with?
Unless they manipulate the election, I would suggest that DeSantis remain in FL for his term as governor and that he support Trump for President.
At this point, being a Trump supporter is our only option to bring common sense back to the White House. DeSantis is a great governor but his ties to the like of Jeb Bush make me want to throw-up my morning coffee. He is appearing more and more to be more of the same crowd that has by passed the “for the people” mantra.
He could not resist the 100’s of millions and whispers of “You’ll make a great President, Governor.”
And his climber wife has her eyes on being big time.
I am sure none of us expected the Establishment GOP to simply sit there while the Trump juggernaut ignored or reversed their interests.
The clever ones saw that the Jeb! frontal assault wouldn’t fool anyone anymore, so the wealthy class hired consultants to discover a Trump-like stealth candidate to deliver the GOP back to their interests. DeSantis saw the golden ring being handed to him in exchange for promotion of the eGOP interests.
I can’t blame the man for taking the ticket in exchange for the most powerful job in the world, since many of the eGOP’s wants coincided with his own political aims, but when this goal is achieved through guile, deception, fraud, and deceit, the good Governor should have known better and told them to kindly F.O.
He should have then exposed this eGOP guile all in public via a series of legendary press conferences–and in doing so, he’d actually become a terrific candidate. Coincidentally, it’s not too late to do so, if any DeSantis campaign staff are reading this (and they should be).
It’s waaay too late. Millions have already been spent & they expect favors in return.
I agree it’s awfully late.
But I actually don’t see what would prevent a DS from turning around and telling TPTB to pound sand, who cares what they “expect.”
He could then use the ill-gotten $$ to defend against a barrage of lawsuits. It sounds crazy but he would probably come out on the other end looking a lot better than he does today – that’s for sure…
It won’t happen of course. But like PeanutButter says, if the staff is reading here….!
If we can’t vote for President Trump what is the answer? I don’t want to vote for Ron but if he is the choice between Bidum or any other of the self interest America hating democraps then what? Please wise commenters help me out with this. I feel I should just vote for Jesus and stay home, but that won’t be helping anyone or anything but my soul!
Ask yourself why you’re voting at all. What’s the whole purpose?
Is it to vote for your principles or theirs?
Here’s how they always manipulate us. Take the Reagan/Bush ticket. We were voting for freedom. We settled for VP Bush on the ticket because we thought Reagan was going to lead us in a new and better direction. Well, the joke’s on us.
The only thing that ended up happening was that the Globalists were able to corral Reagan supporters into supporting the Globalist Bushies. With Reagan finally out of the picture, all Reagan’s supporters were left with Bush as his successor. One great, big unified party controlled by the Globalists, the “brother from another mother.” Little did we know that Bush was just Obama’s puppet.
“President GW Bush Celebrates 20 Years of AIDS Work in Africa with Nancy Pelosi, Tony Blinken and Bill Gates”
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/02/president-gw-bush-celebrates-20-years-of-aids-work-in-africa-with-nancy-pelosi-tony-blinkin-and-bill-gates/
The Globalists did the same thing with VP Pence.. Pence was supposed to do a rinse and repeat of VP Bush. He’s trying really hard to do just that. You gotta give him that. He was supposed to be the heir apparent, but the voters rejected Pence.
Enter from stage right: DeSantis.
I really wish that DeSantis was cut from the same cloth as Trump, and I was watching, waiting to see what color his stripes really were, but you can tell who a person is just by who their friends are.
Ask yourself, how much longer will you allow yourself to be manipulated by them? When does it stop?
Get out there & get engaged in your precinct! Only way there will not be President Trump as the nominee is if they cheat. WHICH THE RNC IS ALREADY DOING.
A state with full R grassroots precinct participation WINS.
They’re already stealing primaries by stealing precincts from the people. We have time enough left to stop it all if we engage NOW.

You don’t vote for the GOPe hack they select for you. And since your vote doesn’t matter anyway, who cares. They will select the next president – there are no honest elections anymore.
No thank you. I’ll write in Donald John Trump for President.
I am fed up with big club politics. Our America will not survive if President Trump and the MAGA base aren’t in charge. We know the Uniparty is not the answer. We’ve seen the RINO Republicans side with the Democrats, more and more spending, more and more control over the populace and less freedom and economic benefits for us.
They rob and steal from us while keeping us on a leash and looking for more ways to take more from us and keep us quiet. I’ve had it with them all.
and I forgot to mention the endless wars. I’m sick of the endless manufactured crisis’ and endless wars.
I’m ready to move to Mexico or establish a US somewhere
Because they intend to lose. Because they need to lose. Just like Romney. Just like McCain.
So, what part of the electorate are they trying to reach with a Jeb Bush endorsement? Certainly not the base. This is a fools errand.
Here is my plan for 2024. In the primary I will vote for President Trump. If by chance he doesn’t win then in the general election I will write in my vote for President Trump. Here in TN I’ve gotten used to writing in candidates – I write in my local state rep, state senator, governor, US senator and US Rep. They chosen GOPe candidates have gone all in with the globalists. I refuse to stop voting because of them.
I stopped playing their game in 2015. I no longer will play the game of plugging my nose but I also will continue to vote. I will never vote for a Commie/Dem, even if by chance I like a Commie/Dem. I stopped that illusion back in the early 90’s.
You’re right. I was always one of those guys that said to hold your nose and just keep voting. Now I know that that’s precisely how we got where we are today. It’s a losing strategy.
Sometimes you just have to burn down the house and start all over again.
That includes placing your vote, even if (and epecially) a write-in, to make sure the opposition doesn’t steal it from you and vote your franchise illegally and on the opposite.
The days when staying home completely was an option are gone. Your vote will be stolen. Don’t let that happen.
The only endorsement that means squat is us!
Trump is going to have to expose the traitors, and because the American public is so shockingly uninformed, the sooner the better.
He already is. Sundance is certainly helping. 🥰

Jeb could be the nail in the coffin for DeSantis! And Fox News is showing their true colors. I never remember any hour-long infomercial for Trump!
I always thought DeSantis would end up like Jeb. Please clap…
So far my research into this Pushaw chic has yielded some interesting data points leading to my conclusion she is part of this Ukrainian situation we find ourselves currently in, lead in the West by the OUN. The Organization of Ukrainian Nationals has been weazled into positions of power for decades and we are now run by Fascists in my opinion.
Penshaw has no background before college that I can find. She seems to be in all of the correct areas as the players in the Color Revolution are commencing. She lived and studied in Russia, is anti Russian, before somehow hooking up with Saakashvili’s administration in Georgia. Saakashvili is a McCain prodigy and Western creation. After the Maidan he was installed in the Crimea. Penshaw recently registered under FARA for her work with Saakashvili.
She was with Zelenski at his HQ upon the night he was elected. Nina Jankowitz was also present at his HQ, photo evidence, working as a PR staffer. Jankowits also recently has registered with FARA for her past work.
Penshaw has been very vocal about her support for regime change in Russia. Based upon my research and information within the public domain, the DeSantis foreign policy will continue towards this OUN-B goal of war with Russia and eradicating the Russian people.
I do not want DeSantis anywhere near the Presidency.
Wow. That is some very good research. Thanks!
Why would you have a law, (resign to run) if you just change it whenever someone runs? Let me guess, if the Governor was a dem they wouldn’t change the law. Purely political, and stupid.
At some point, MAGA voters will ask who, what, when after Trump?
MAGA can go on but Trump cannot.
Trump would be a lame duck President from outset and who would his advisors be after witnessing the actions taken against them? There are not going to be many effective volunteers.
I voted for Trump twice and approved of his US first agenda.
Still believe Trump would be more effective as a kingmaker than POTUS at this point.
PS Did a small survey of women who voted for Trump in past, 4-4 went DeSantis.
So there’s that too……
Because it doesn’t matter that you’re voting FOR a globalist. It only matters that you win, right?
That’s a bit like saying, I’ll vote for the Devil just because I know he’ll win.
Good life strategy!
We met with Ron when he ran for the house then twice inLauderdale running for Rubio’s seat. He was grilled on issues like UNAGENDA 21 /2030. Does he get it NO If he did our counties would not be facing issues like Gloabl Villages. The state house now will pass low income housing no height restrictions ,more grants for bike paths GET RID OF CARS, more apartmentsts to get everyone to move into the urban boundary,water and energy tax , and much more. We are fighting but it useless the stupid people thinks it is all GOOD! We won on the seven 50 regional plan another Unagenda 21 /2030 scam but now they implenting it through grants. Power and Money has infected our LOCAL elected officials curruption and cronyism over the top!
We are trying FIGHT but many groups are not payinhg attention all think Trump will make it go away and still buying the naarastive of DeSantiis Free Florida! On the Federal issues we send out notices to call elected officials one phone call is worth 100 votes that is how they count the calls.
WE MUST LOBBY!!!!
Do you care email me so we can connect and have more warriors!
The best RINO filter ever made.
Love ya, Sundance, but as a tax attorney, I will say that the difference between 2014 and 2021 was that it was literally considered unconstitutional to levy tax on out of state online sellers due to a lack of nexus until the Wayfair decision in 2018. Prior to that, it was the rule that a state could only impose a sales tax collection and remittance obligation based on physical presence (i.e., having property or employees physically in that state). Similarly to how a state you don’t live is allowed to haul you to court if you get caught speeding in that state, by having a physical presence in that state, you “avail yourself” of those laws (e.g., if you get in a crash on their highway, your state isn’t sending the police, their state is, so you created a connection with them and subjected yourself to their laws). In 2018 the SCOTUS said, even if you’re just shipping product into the state via third party, if someone steal your product off your customer’s doorstep, it’s that state’s police that are coming, so you created a nexus by having your “agent” come in the state with your product. EVERY state with a sales tax has created sales thresholds that once someone meets, they have to collect a remit sales tax to the state. The thresholds are high (usually $100-250k) to avoid hitting mom and pop and and one off sellers, but almost all companies at this point have to charge sales tax on online orders. After that came what are called “marketplace facilitator” rules which we pushed for nationally to make it to where little sellers who are a part of a defined marketplace (e.g., Amazon sellers) don’t have a million individual collection and remittance obligations but rather Amazon (or other facilitators) have to set their systems up to do it for the little sellers. They created a marketplace in the state where people sell things, they availed themselves of the laws of the state where the product was shipped to. Constitutionally, the state is now allowed to tell them to collect the tax and now, instead of spending millions going after little sellers who we don’t expect to know or have tax specialist on staff, the states just have to make sure the big marketplaces are doing it right. If you ever have any questions about tax, happy to discuss.
That’s a pox on the DeSantis house. Jeb is a schlub. Everyone knows that, ‘cept Jeb.
Every Bush is.
You’re disrespecting schlubs.
For the DeSantis fanbois, you getting it yet?
Even GOP voters can be dense.
This family wants President Trump!
Oh my head. I’m a Trump supporter, but almost anything would be better than Newsom. Now an endorsement from Jeb! – so not good. Some day drinking may be in order.
Newsom may actually be preferable to an endorsement from Jeb!
I’ve always felt it wise to have a back up candidate, but it doesn’t appear we have an option b. Between Soros and Jeb, I’ve heard enough. I’m curious why Ron isn’t rejecting these endorsements.
Says a lot.
