In 2016, Virginia’s Ken Cuccinelli was one of the lead voices behind the never-Trump pro-Cruz effort. Cuccinelli was the main floor voice trying to lead a revolt against Donald Trump at the 2016 GOP nomination convention.
After President Trump won the nomination, Cuccinelli became a fake MAGA supporter in order to retain influence in Republican politics; however, he was always of a never-Trump disposition despite President Trump letting bygones be bygones for the Cruz folks.
Now we enter 2024 and Ken Cuccinelli, a political grifter of the most extreme variant, goes back into never-Trump mode in support of Ron DeSantis and launches a Political Action Committee to support the Florida Governor. [LINK]
…[…] The Trump campaign isn’t alone in preparing for a delegate fight. Other prominent Republicans, including Ken Cuccinelli, a former Virginia attorney general and a top delegate expert, have been discussing amendments to the delegate rules, according to a person familiar with the matter. Mr. Cuccinelli declined to comment, saying only that he was not publicly committed to a candidate. (March 4, 2023)
A fools errand. DeSwampis has no path in 2024. The Republican base is with the Very Stable Genius and the more DC hates him the more we love him. VSGPDJT IS OUR MURDER WEAPON.
Ron has exposed himself as a globalist stooge and a tool of swamp, promising his donors a “return to norms” and (as Ken Griffin said) to “blunt the vein of populism”. The good old days of shagging the taxpayer blind are over: our eyes are open and we don’t like it.
All that said, there is a part of me that thinks an INDEPENDENT run for The Peoples Champion would be a viable path to the presidency. Could the D’s and R’s unite enough to stop him from winning? Who knows.
The truth is indomitable and it shall prevail.
We will all vote for PDJT no matter what party it is. We will all write in his name if necessary. We will all out-vote-harvest them in every way possible. The Dems and Rinos are desparately rearranging the chairs on the Titanic.
PDJT transcends any party affiliation
President Donald J Trump
IS
MAGA! (period)
✝️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The UniParty is scrambling to ensure PDJT is not the nominee. Ronna ROMNEY McD will try to change the rules, the swamp will continue to attempt to iindict him for ___ ( fill in any stupid, nonsense reason), and the money-grubbing grifters will flow from the woodwork to run for office just to pad their coffers.
I, too, will write in PDJT if it comes to that. We, as a nation, are in a tough position with no justice department…do we take matters into our own hands or rely on the corruption in the courts?
Now that would be a blast for Trump to win in a write-in. Glorious.
*insert Hulk Hogan gif*
Hell ya brother.
My gut is telling me Ron won’t run.
‘The GOPe is cashing in on his name,
but there’s no way they will be Trump
unless they cheat….. again.
An Independent run is the Nuclear Option if they cheat him out of the nomination.
Those who hate populism hate the people, and don’t care about their concerns and well-being.
Kind of like Newsom running off to Baja during the devastating snow storm.
Kind of like Biden and Buttigieg and the people of East Palestine, OH
All that wasted money when TRUMP WINS – what a bunch of morons.
“… wasted money …”
Cuccinelli, Rove, and fellow travelers get a cut, and their globalist handlers will just print more (which effectively robs deplorables by increasing inflation), and they’ll get a cut of that, too. It’s ‘win-win’ from their perspective. If they succeed in subverting the will of the American people again, then there will be fat bonuses all round.
Don’t forget the presstitutes will be getting their piece of the pie.
Cue the “Please run for president in 2024, Ron!!” pleas. These people are so predictable. One by one, they will all “beg” RDS and then, he will grudgingly have to do it “to save democracy” and “bipartisanship”.
It is more amateurish than a daily soap and just as predictable.
Similar to a gag-me-with-a-spoon Hallmark movie.
You hit on such a key point.
The PAC is to “encourage” DeSanctimonious to run.
I have sensed this from the beginning that he is to lay low as if he’s just focusing on Florida –
And then everyone would beg and plead with him as you have indicated –
And then he will have to sacrificially give in for the good of all.
What a ploy –
As if this PAC was not plotted out with DeSantis himself.
Ayup.
Not even disingenuous.
He’s gonna step in it…
Sundance-
how do we handle the objection to Trump that he stood by and let the whole Warp Speed thing happen and has never acknowledged this mistake?
would luv to see your thoughts on this
Ron, don’t you have another beach to close?
Off topic
This is the bash Chef Boy RD for taking WEF 💰 article
You should bring up Trump
In the pres thread
This isn’t simply off-topic.
It’s one of Team DeSinkhole’s most ardently polished shivs.
Pushed here either aggressively or faux-sincerely, but never innocently.
We discovered another Ron fanboi “concern troll”.
SaniBots.
President Trumps information was only as good as what the lying swamp out to ruin him gave to Trump…. get it?
They refuse to get it. These concern trolls.
Warp Speed was not a mistake. It got the hospital ships and tent hospitals where needed, it got PPE’s to medical personnel all over the country, and when the monoclonal antibodies worked for him, he ordered 500 mil doses produced for the rest of us.
THE SHOTS were NOT available until AFTER PDJT left office. He NEVER suggested anything be mandatory. THAT is all on BIDEN !
Excellent!
Thank you!
Excellent points re the ships and PPE.
I’d add that President Trump was faced with a harsh, no-win situation and he had a decision to make.
His first preference was to make therapeutics like hydroxychloroquine available and when those were blocked with smear campaigns and a major hoax study (later withdrawn from publication) , he was faced with a no-win decision re the lockdown situation.
The states had locked down and were not opening back up. Lives were being lost by the lockdowns:
(1) most regular medical care, needed surgeries, diagnostics were not available during lockdowns.
Side note: I had a family member who needed surgery to remove a tumor. This was a matter of days before the hospital was to stop most non-Covid care. The surgeon had said don’t worry, the lockdowns won”t last long, we can do it in a few months at the outside —but we gut level knew not to trust that and so glad we found a way –she was one of the last surgeries done there before Covid care replaced surgeries. She would have died if she had had to wait thru the lockdowns until the hospital re-opened again.
(2) if the lockdowns continued as long as globalists were stating, five or so years, the shutdown economy would not survive –more people would die from not being able to house and feed themselves.
So he had to convince the states to re-open and the vaccine was the price to get them to re-open.
If President Trump had entered the white house in 2021, he would have continued to work hard on therapeutics, as he did in making monoclonal antibodies available, and he would not have mandated the vaccines.
Many died from the vaccine, but many also would have died if he couldn’t get the states to lift their lockdowns.
—-Death from lack of access to medical services.
—-Death from a permanently destroyed economy where people could no longer feed and house themselves.
He made a choice that in my view was the only route open to save the country and save lives and pull us back from the decimation of our freedoms under lockdown rule. Who’s to blame? Biden, Pharmaceutical companies, Bill Gates who heavily funds the WHO, WEF, China, feckless judges and corrupt politicians at the state level–they are to blame.
And lastly, any candidate trying to hold a fig leaf over their own responses will not do well to try to make a holier than thou argument regarding their pandemic response –no one. Right now there’s lots of revisionist history that will not survive a look under the hood of each candidates actions these last years.
I have had my share of anger at Trump when he brags about the vax and how many millions of lives it saved. But I also remember the Covid press conferences. How any therapeutic was completely condemned. How many unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations cause of that? The lockdowns would have continued much longer if not for the vax. A classic Sophie’s Choice.
Trump pushed for the therapeutics especially HCQ.
he is only going with the science
perhaps you should save your angst for them
This!!! Good job, NC Patriot.
President Trump. You seem smart! Answer your question for All of Us! Gracias.
Someone explained this in comments on another RDS article several weeks back.
. Trump knew they already had the vaccine ready to go but they planned to say they didn’t and keep us in lockdown for 8-10 years causing death by suicide, starvation etc.
Trump played his Trump card and did Operation Warpspeed.
The person who wrote the original comments on this said sometimes the best choice is also a shi**y choice.
Perhaps others who read the explanation will provide more insight.
Asked and answered a million times on any one of these multiple “Ron” threads. Go dig deep. In the meantime…
From the Tampa Bay Times: Ron and the vaccines.
“The vaccines protect you. Get vaccinated and then live your life as if you’re protected,’’ DeSantis is recorded saying during a May 3, 2021, press conference.
“The messaging should be ‘get a vaccine because it’s good for you to do it. It works,’ ‘’ he said in another.
“The Late Show” host Stephen Colbert pieced together half a dozen of the DeSantis statements for his monologue on Wednesday. Colbert introduced the clips by saying: “Well, if DeSantis is going full conspiracy and attacking anyone who promoted this vaccine, I just hope he cracks down on whoever this guy is.”
“We know that there is no time to waste when it comes getting shots in arms,’’ Colbert showed DeSantis saying in one recorded video.
“They’re safe. They’re effective vaccines,’’ DeSantis said in another.
Maybe Fauci, Pence, Birx, RDS, CDC, NIH, NIAID, FDA, Big Pharma, Big Hospital, Big Media, Big Insurance, Big Medical Science, and Big Corporation should chime in on how THEY made a mistake and have not acknowledge it yet.
Don’t you think that the experts in the field of “vaccines” should acknowledge killing people through their lockdown policies and mRNA shot???
The DeSantis vaccine EO. No mandate but there was support for rolling the vax out to seniors first. DeSimpers pretend he never did this though just as they pretend he isn’t backed by Ken Griffin and other hedgies.
https://www.flgov.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/EO-21-81.pdf
No disrespect, but take a hike go to another site. The country is about to go down in flames and we’ll never get America back and you’re worried about warp speed. That’s like fighting World War II, and some people were worried that Patton slapped a person during war because that soldier froze. When it comes to life or death for the nation, you do whatever you have to do to win.
Paul R is just doing his job–feigning concern about warp speed. Obviously these concern trolls can’t read the room. Time for them to move on.
“The White House
@WhiteHouse
United States government organization
When President Biden took office, millions were unemployed and there was no vaccine available.
In the last 15 months, the economy has created 8.3M jobs and the unemployment rate stands at 3.6% — the fastest decline in unemployment to start a President’s term ever recorded.
5:45 PM · May 12, 2022”
And if anyone believes that O”Biden White House line of bovine manure, please refer them to me – I have several bridges for sale…….cheap.
None here believe it, but it belies the assertion that the vaccine was available under Trump.
Asked and answered already, many times. You’ll have to look up our answers to that one on your own time.
I think you tripped into the wrong tree. We’ve cut down that limb already. It was rotten to the core.
Warp speed was really about stopping the deadly lockdowns. And they were horrendously deadly–
and would have gotten exponentially more deadly.
Suicides alone were off the charts. And small to medium businesses were being crushed and destroyed.
They wanted to lock us down indefinitely.
This is what the deep state was hoping for.
Even many Republican Governors did not listen to Trump saying “Open up your states!”
No one listened when he tried to tell everyone “the therapeutics are cures.”
And the deep state blocked them.
Re: the vaccine itself, it was recommended for the elderly and high risk–
ones who the vaccine would simply give an immune boost to, and when weighing it out would be better than getting the virus.
But not even these populations would have ever been forced into taking it.
If these guidelines had been followed, everything would have been fine and herd immunity would have taken its usual course as well.
President Trump didn’t make a mistake and he knows it.
Where it became a death jab is through all the forcing on those with already strong immune systems and overloading with shot after shot.
It is primarily these factors that are causing the deaths.
Even though President Trump wasn’t in office when the roll-out came, he still said that young healthy people didn’t need it, and that boosters were not necessary.
If everyone had listened to President Trump none of the terrible draconian efforts would have been successful.
So it’s true–
Hundreds of thousands of lives were saved.
Who’s we? Do you have a mouse in your pocket??? I have NO objection to President Trump over the Warp Speed. Not an issue for me. Nothing but a non issue political 🐮 💩 from Never Trump trolls.
My concerns are the open border invasion, WEF Great Communist Reset, The Green Energy Scam, The National Debt, Out of control inflation, Cheap and reliable energy Independence using our own coal, oil and natural gas, the Cultural Marxist Transformation of America, Corruption in every branch of Government federal, county, city and State, Stolen and crooked elections, Never ending warmongering grifting like Ukraine and Syria, Communist Brainwashing in public schools, Lying, conniving Propaganda news media, etc.etc.etc.
With all these problems, I am supposed to worry about President Trump’s opinion on Warp Speed???? Not hardly. I didn’t take the poison that came along after the 2020 coup that removed President Trump out of office. Biden is the one who forced mandates on society, not Trump. Nevertheless I still refused to take it. I don’t know nor do I give a tinkers damn what President Trump’s opinion or anyone else’s opinion was or is on Warp Speed. I think for myself and don’t need Government cronies to tell me what to do..
Sorry…. not sorry…. you lose here on that Warp Speed nonsense. My best advice is to “don’t go away mad, just go away”.
The people who are obsessed with that point are a miniscule part of society.
Those of us who also want clarity on that point are willing to trust him and wait, because P. Trump has proven himself over and over, in so many ways, to be trustworthy.
We can trust him with the things we don’t understand because he
Your homework assignment is:
Research WHO, CDC, NIH and the individual states
look there first and then come back to us
The economy is shredding all over the place. If the dems run Biden, they’ll throw the kitchen sink into the remaining spokes of our economic bicycle. IF the next president is an R they are going to have a filthy mess to clean up and hard decisions to make to get us back on a decent track . Desantis should run in 2028. Trump should have 4 years to do the dirty work and then back Desantis for a long term recovery and growth. But $$$$ and ego beat common sense every time.
Knowing who and what Ron D is I don’t ever want him in the white house I will never vote for an establishment rhino again Ben there Done that never ever ever again
R.D.
I agree Red Dog…the well is poisoned.
Rhonda Santis has been bought. Trump Jr in 2028!
Matt Gaetz would be a good choice as well
DJT Jr’s mother wad not a US citizen when he was born. Does that make him ineligible from running as POTUS?
As it’s commonly understood, both parents US citizens, yes, he’s ineligible.
The little understood reality is that the Founders used Vattel’s Law of Nations in their framing of the Constitution and Natural Born was considered to be a status conferred by the father.
While that wouldn’t fly well in today’s hyper-feminized culture, the reality is that he is eligible.
In any case, I’d like to see such a run simply for the opportunity to explode every liberal head and force the issue to be addressed openly honestly and forthrightly; can you imagine the mental anguish and rhetorical gyrations of those eager to discount Don Jr’s eligibility knowing that their Messiah was never under any conception of the requirement a Natural Born Citizen?
I still dream of a Reconciliation and Nullification Commission led by PDJT in his second term wherein he presides over a process that determines which acts of Zero and his equally invalid puppet Biden will stand or fall. Nothing PDJT doesn’t endorse under his authority will endure; Acts, Legislation, Appointments and Nominations, all are up for reevalutation, to include the acts of those appointed or confirmed subsequent to nomination by either of the Constitutional Nullities.
Erase Zero.
Deleted. Didn’t see the Jr.
Sympathy deletion, point mooted.
😉
The Republicans have no sense of a long-term strategy. Their only focus is ever on the next election with no regard for what happens next.
NO RDS EVER!!! Once a traitor, Uniparty, RINO, disloyal, liar then always a traitor, Uniparty, RINO, disloyal, liar.
Meatball Ron has shown me who he is. So, no.
Indeed.
He needs to be so humiliated that he withdraws and none dare seek to fake us out with a faux MAGA candidate again for fear of the everlasting backlash.
I wonder if all these grifters and wild-eyed co-dependent cream puffs know that RDS has done well down here because he has a supermajority in the Florida legislature?
That magic trick won’t work in #StalinVille.
Or, is it that they are skimming as much as they can before the primary blow out.
(Rhetorical question, btw)
Ron’s dance card is filling up fast. Don’t forget, Ron. You gotta dance with the one that bought ya.
Want is in hell is wrong with all these people? Can’t they see the same BS we see. My god, they have so many Ben Franklins up their end they cannot think or see straight. Bought and paid for. A time for the choosing as Reagan famous speech outlines, and you sir have chosen very poorly.
So many males who hate PDJT are just beta males who feel insecure because of him. It is an irrational hatred.
Beta males call it toxic masculinity. We call it brass balls.
I don’t know one man that hates President Trump. Not one! And I have to many friends to count. I weeded out all the Communist Democrats.
You are so right about that. I have friends in both categories (Alpha and Beta), and for the Beta guys most of the dislike for Trump comes from that emotional/irrational place. The Alpha guys who dislike him just dislike his policies. They’d love to have a drink with him though.
Well I just made another contribution to Trump. At this rate I will be broke soon by all the RINO’s and their stupidity.
If Ron DeSantis has any political savvy and common sense, he would play the role of Ronald Reagan during the 1976 GOP convention. After a few exciting floor skirmishes, Reagan lost gracefully, and conceded to President Ford, who then went on to lose to Carter.
But Reagan’s loss at the 1976 convention made him the certain nominee in 1980. Maybe after watching President Trump kick @ss in the White House for four years, Ron DeSantis can be rehabilitated and saved. There’s always hope.
A snake that sheds its skin is still a snake.
And then there is always George HW Bush.
Chef Boy RD took WEF 💰
He is a lost cause with no hope!
we’re no longer wearing masks and blinders in 2023
No to Ron. No. He is disloyal. He lied about wanted to have a 2nd term as Top Guv in FL. He keeps company with all of the big RINOs.
Exactly.
Right now, the only good thing I can say about DeSantis – he’s better than Gillum would have been. By helping RDS win the governorship the first time, President Trump saved Florida from a horrible situation.
There is no hope for Ron DeSanctis. He has been exposed.
Consolidating here for the “no-hope” responses: First, I’m a gambler and I know expecting RDS to become sincerely MAGA is a long-shot. But at this later stage of my life, I will not stray from Romans 12:12 — Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. So yes, even for the likes of RDS….there’s hope.
He’d better stop sinning now then, he already has a long road of repentance ahead of him.
Who doesn’t?
Those plotting the murder of nations have a mite steeper path to tread.
Rhonda Santis just keeps lining up one loser after another in his failed attempt to derail DJT. He’s risen as far as he’ll ever go politically as the ladderis cut off exactly where he stands. No sympathy for a run of the mill congress critter who was literally drug across the finish line in the Florida gov race by Trump. Your time in the spotlite is fading fast.
If Trump wins the nomination it will be despite, and not because of, the Republican Party.
Just like 2016, but bigger this time.
Way bigger biggley bigger biggest of the bigs
R.D.
….and I can guarantee PDJT is taking names. I know I am….’Something about this Sicilian blood….
Oh my gosh. I remember the Cooch debacle during the 2016 VA primary. John Fredericks can tell you all about the sneaky backroom deals that Cooch was making. Then, Cooch teamed up with Lee and carried that despicable behavior to the Convention. Fredericks was beside himself. He said Cooch was out of control. What a snake to shun Trump after he gave him another chance.
Love it!
That was really, really funny!!
As a proud Italian I do not appreciate the the meatball reference, hopefully this does not continue because I might have to start defending DeSantis. I was looking forward to one day having an Italian American for President so this is all disappointing but I really do not like the disrespect for Italians.
Ya know what?
I don’t know anyone that sees RdS as Italian, or the Meatball meme as a slur of any kind.
Incidentally, I haven’t longed to have anyone that “looks like me” in any elected office.
I’m content with someone that fights for me and America, and there’s only one of those.
Well he does’nt look like me, I would never vote for someone unless he represented the same ideas that I believe in and I felt that DeSantis did. Of course you don’t think anything is wrong calling an Italian person a meatball because you are not Italian . Oh by the way my 22 Italian family members see him as an Italian would they vote for him just because of that? No but it would be a bonus.
I have probably a smattering of every European line there is, including a tiny bit of Italian for certain, and I just don’t care.
Did Trump ever advertise himself as a Scots-American, or anyone mention it at all?
I figure anyone that wants a chance to represent Americans that love the American ideal of a common people with a common creed need to leave the identity politics to the dividers.
They did nothing to secure our Republican win in 2020 with DJT. Now, we are to believe DeSantis is the next winner.
They don’t care if Desantis wins, they just want to see Trump lose.
President Trump will win
Where do they come up with these meaningless pretentious names 🙄
First they start with the premise that they want their appellation to insult and piss us off.
It’s easy after that.
Could Trump be the first third party candidate in modern history to win the presidency?
Ross Perot didn’t do too badly and that’s when we didn’t know what was going on. Almost 20 million votes!
We’re wide awake now! MAGA!
Did we miss something or are these loser rino never Trumpers dreaming up some party delegate rules scam to try to unseat PDT? All the smoke and mirrors attempting to make Rhonda DeSoros palletable to the MEGA base borders on hilarious. Unless Rhonda is able to somehow hide his globalist creds, don’t see him gaining much traction with the 80+ million MEGA people
He can’t and won’t hide what he is.
He’s already flaming out, numbers dropping rapidly.
His DeSimps are anxiously trying to play the Sinkhole Strategy into a draft movement and there’s no enthusiasm anywhere, not even amongst the purchased influencers, we see him and will never cease calling him out.
Exactly!! He is committing political suicide but his handlers will be wealthier. THIS is how the RINO’s roll. NONE of them care about winning, just how much they can make.
DeSnake continues to sink himself with the personnel around him…C Pushaw..REALLY? She was behind Zelensky and his “campaign” and now front-and-center with Ron DeSnake campaign? If she was tied to Zelensky, how many unsavory characters is she now tied to with the 4th branch of government?
…how many unsavory characters is she now tied to with the 4th branch of government?
All of them, she’s that kind of girl.
That’s exactly what concerns me.
I was concerned about state GOPs changing delegate rules. This article has a positive spin, points out PDJT addressed that in 2020 and would be well aware of it in 2024.
https://www.brookings.edu/blog/fixgov/2023/02/15/if-nikki-haley-is-the-first-of-many-to-run-trump-will-win/
“Launches a Draft DeSantis effort”.
Sure.
Gee, we have so much support lined up (and donors in addition to those donating for his book tour) Ron absolutely must run.
This pussyfooting around by politicians of either wing of the bird has always seemed so false. Either declare and run or stick to your job.
It makes me think wind direction would be checked before every decision made.
It is indeed false.
It’s the Sinkhole Strategy.
Akin to Biden’s Basement.
Only the GOPe goofs are pretending that Ronnie is working hard for Florida and the Presidency is far from his mind and they have to enlist a great army to pull him out of his hole to save the nation from populism and economic nationalism.
Ken Cuccinelli was appointed Deputy Secretary of DHS by President Trump and Director of the Immigration Service so we have another Trump appointee given an incredible high-profile position that is NEVER TRUMP. Why would anyone continue hiring proclaimed enemies who continually turn around and stab you in the back. Not once but dozens and dozens of times over and over again? In eight years Obama never had one person turn on him. Not one because they knew what the consequences would be. With President Trump the back stabbers like Comey, Wray, McMaster, Bolton, etc etc etc get rewarded!
They also get exposed one by one. Sunlight is a disinfectant.
…but we knew they were a snake when I let you in!
We here at the Treehouse and others. But many were asleep unfortunately.
Heck, in the Trump administration, there were very few who did not stab him in the back.
.
I think, Joe, that there simply were not a lot of choices available. In addition, Trump assumed at the beginning, based on his business experience as well as pre-campaign history of being actually beloved by those on the left and right (see his latest book of letters to Trump), that all the hatred was mostly posturing in the initial 2016 election contest, but thereafter there would be rapproachment and unifying, and he would win them over as allies after that.
He won’t make this mistake again.
.
He has an army now.
“The energy is real”
LoL
Sadly Ron will never be the guy…
Ron DeSantis is boring like Jeb Bush, PLEASE CLAP
Swampers gotta Swamp.
I believe Ronnie D knows in his heart and soul that it is not appropriate to run against POTUS Trump. The evil forces are trying to bribe him and to sell his soul to do so. It’s up to Desantis; he either fights off these demons or succumbs to them.
I pray that DeSantis stops and takes a good hard look at his options and acts accordingly. We shall soon find out who he really is.
I hope they waste a lot of money! MAGA!!!
Here We Go Again. If it wasnt for the new normal election fraud the Uni-party cabal wouldnt even be wasting their time. The paid performers are employed to make you believe the future election results are real. The propaganda media machine lost its ability to influence election outcomes starting in 2016.
The GOPe was so sure Jeb! would win. The media reported endlessly how well-funded he was…which will happen with DeSantis once he finally gets off the pot.
If I recall correctly, Jeb! spent $100 million, and got 4 delegates.
If DeSantis were smart, he would bide his time until 2028.
By the time the next President is inaugurated, Biden will have the country circling the toilet. A Trump win would bring several more to the House, and hopefully more in the Senate.
It will take a bit of work to get the country going again, and by 2028, DeSantis would have a solid foundation to coast on.
DeSantis may be a fraud and coward as are most of our installed politicians but he is a smart one. DeSantis knows the New Normal election process ultimately determines who is installed in the races that matter, not the electorate.
Thats what J6 was really all about. There at least needs to be a House committee to investigate to at least direct some sunlight onto the Elephant in the room in the hopes that might pressure officials to close some of the pandemic induced election integrity loopholes. There is not one for a reason. Cabal united against MAGA/US
“Donald you not gonna insult your way to the presidency” all time Favorite Jeb! Quote
Bush wants you in chains crawling on hands and knees. Sorry for the buzz kill.
I saw that today and received an email from him promoting DeSantis (obviously part of a mass email) and it really made me angry. I view these people as human scum, no different than the far left nut jobs in the other party.
These people are insane. As in certifiably insane. Somehow they don’t realize or don’t care that the more they push Ronnie and back Ronnie the more unlikable and exposed he becomes. One only has to look at any of the polls to see who’s really holding the GOP nomination. Why would they expose Ronnie to this and ruin his chances for 2028? If they’d of played it cool and just rode Trump’s coattails as usual Ronnie would have probably sailed through as the 2028 MAGA candidate. Even though we know he’s nothing but an establishment Uniparty elitist trying to line his own pockets. It would have been harder to convince people of this if they would have had Ronnie stand down.
I can’t wait until he officially announces and he becomes liked as much as gutterslug Haley or Judas Pence!
Maybe DeSantis could “win”. And would DeSantis “winning” the Presidency and retaining the Swamp help We The People?
DeSantis would be a MILLION times better than Biden or any Democrat!!!
Bending over so soon?
If you thought that the last two years were fun wait until you live through the next six with Biden!
Doubling down even? If you cant beat em join em approach.
Here’s the full bill, HB 269: PUBLIC NUISANCES, that Republicans in FL are trying to pass this legislative session, which would make “hate speech” conducted via the act of passing out offensive flyers a “hate crime” that is classified as a 3rd degree felony with a minimum 5 year prison sentence.
UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND TYRANNICAL! THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS HATE SPEECH!
https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2023/269
Still thinking inside the approved box.
DeSantis (U) FL vs Biden (U) DE
People like Cucinelli are employed to make you believe that DeSantis could win so you accept the fake eleciton results. Dont give them any slack. There is no possibility for DeSantis to win a fair election just like Branden.
Well he doesn’t really have a job other than grifting. That’s how all these fools make money see Santorum and any number of former politicians and cabinet members.
Ron D is young, but if were smart he would end the mindless speculation about him and say he’s the Governor of Florida and will not challenge DJT and then RD should endorse Trump. If he were smart he’d do that….we will see.
He would probably prefer to do that; but his bank account would prefer he stay silent.
The best thing that could happen is for the Florida Legislature to not change the law that would force DeSantis to resign the governorship if he runs for President. That would save everyone a lot of grief.
If Trump wants to lead us, I’m voting for him. Even if I’m the only one. Even if I have to write his name in.
I don’t care what he tweets. I don’t care what he does.
Honestly, I’d consider Putin over Biden. At least Putin loves his country.
Meanwhile Karma has hit Cocaine Mitch. Will his brain and thinking be the same again afterwards?

They will be screwed if they push too hard on this, because it will be obvious that it is common sense MAGA Trump policies that are truly independent and innovative versus ‘the new generation’ of establishment neocons with no new ideas of their own! Authenticity versus status quo! In General, if not Trump then who, the same old? Big opportunity for an independent known entity Trump, then both parties will be lost, and an independent leaning Republican wins for the first time in history! Add an independent VP from that previously leaned the old liberal mindset, and boom! Reasonable people of both parties and independents are angry enough and have had enough to make this happen in the environment we are in today! We are not loyal to party, only loyal to our country!
…I have already intimated to you the danger of parties in the state, with particular reference to the founding of them on geographical discriminations. Let me now take a more comprehensive view and warn you in the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the spirit of party, generally. This spirit, unfortunately, is inseparable from our nature, having its root in the strongest passions of the human mind. It exists under different shapes in all governments, more or less stifled, controlled, or repressed; but in those of the popular form it is seen in its greatest rankness and is truly their worst enemy. The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disorders and miseries which result gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation on the ruins of public liberty. Without looking forward to an extremity of this kind (which nevertheless ought not to be entirely out of sight) the common and continual mischiefs of the spirit of party are sufficient to make it the interest and the duty of a wise people to discourage and restrain it. It serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which find a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions. Thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another. There is an opinion that parties in free countries are useful checks upon the administration of the government and serve to keep alive the spirit of liberty. This within certain limits is probably true— and in governments of a monarchical cast patriotism may look with indulgence, if not with favor, upon the spirit of party. But in those of the popular character, in governments purely elective, it is a spirit not to be encouraged. From their natural tendency, it is certain there will always be enough of that spirit for every salutary purpose. And there being constant danger of excess, the effort ought to be by force of public opinion to mitigate and assuage it. A fire not to be quenched, it demands a uniform vigilance to prevent its bursting into a flame, lest instead of warming it should consume.
George Washington Farewell Address

Excellent cite.
The spirit of party has indeed been consuming our Republic for quite some time.
The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism.
This I count as a constant frustration to all nations of the world that don’t know election to election if we shall be friend or foe, enemies or allies; it embarasses me that nations for whom I have a fondness cannot trust the intentions and feelings of my nation as it whipsaws from one extreme to the next.
Well … it’s a FREE country. Well, that’s written down somewhere, anyway. So PAC-away douche’bag. I cannot wait to hear you wail when your chosen candidate is swept into the dustbin by the overwhelming numbers of MAGA Trump 24 patriots. I can hear your wailing now … and it sounds of VICTORY

I have noticed of late that a number of former Trump bloggers and websites have gone all-in for DeSantis over Trump. I am wondering whether they have been given big donations by the anti-Trump forces. (At, Dianny…)
Meanwhile, lawfare is still straining to find some basis to bring criminal charges against Trump. See the pigs in NY, Alvin Bragg et al. https://www.justsecurity.org/85029/trumps-hush-money-is-news-again-heres-why-we-should-care/
It’s all nauseating.
.
It is, and they hope it will become too overwhelming to continue to fight for Trump against the Swamp Tide.
They would be wrong.
A lot of them only supported Trump after it was inevitable last time to keep the money or the clicks see: Weaselzippers, Ace of Spades, Mark Levin, Buck Sexton, Glenn Beck – pretty much everyone but CTH and the Gateway Pundit.
Prosecutors Signal Criminal Charges for Trump Are Likely
The former president was told that he could appear before a Manhattan grand jury next week if he wishes to testify, a strong indication that an indictment could soon follow.

What “amendment”; pray tell?
Guess Cuccinelli knows that DeSantis
will get
creamed (like butter) … smashed (like mashed potatoes)
by President Trump.
-oh well… another leftist turncoat (lawyer) scumbag.

To refresh the memory about Ken Cuccinelli:
https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-foe-friend-flips-desantis-1786730
Excerpt:
“While Cuccinelli served under the Trump administration, both as
—acting DHS secretary
and
as a member of
the White House
-Coronavirus Task Force”
I wonder if they are looking at Super Delegates like the Dems. With those you can always pick the nominee without voter interference.
Ken “coochi-coochi” Cuccinelli your career is over.
A reminder that we are in a battle with people who not only are participants, but are also the ones who write the rules for the contest. They also serve as the referees. It’s that fixed!
For that reason the delegate selection process and subsequent convention rules are so damn important. It’s possible that what a wide majority of Republican primary voters want, (e.g. President Trump 2024), will not matter as much as the decision of a convention’s Rules Committee. That’s why when you’re voting in a GOP primary, you must get to know the people running as delegates. Are they MAGA? [Yes, folks, we’re at that level. Suck it up.]
That was wasted money on Cruz, who doesn’t meet the minimum qualifications to be President.
I think he spells his last name Cuckinelli.
Another one taken into the administration and has absolutely no loyalty. I think there must be a lot of money on the table to stiff Trump.
You mean Ken acted MAGA long enough to get a job in the TRUMP administration.
And the flushing out of the weasels continues….
This campaign is going to be the worst we’ve ever seen
I have had a positive feeling toward DeSantis, not over Trump but in general. I am losing that fast because of those supporting him. I believe these folks will lead to his demise.
Gee….isnt this guy a proven loser? Seriously, why would anybody not for Trump, want to get on the same stage as Trump? Didn’t they see what happened to the last field of 16 so called elite professional politicians….
including Cruz? That’s just asking to be humiliated and exposed for the imposter that you are. Stupid is what stupid does!
Most are being paid simply to nibble at Trump.
DeSinkhole has been promised that his crew will cripple or eliminate Trump.
He wouldn’t have taken the risk otherwise.
DeSantis has little support in the hugely important Northern battleground states. Even in Trump’s 2020 “loss” the margin of defeat was narrower than any other Republican in decades. Republicans regularly lost Wis, Michigan and Penn by 300-400K votes. Trump nearly won WIs in 2020 despite massive fraud and only lost Penn by 80K again in the face of very likely widespread fraud.
DeSantis has little support with the base voters of the populist, nationalist revolt started by President Trump. He does, however, have the undying support of the uniparty globalist, warmongering, multinational corporate and big finance scumbags who really run the Globalist America Empire. These psychopaths’ plan to present bought and paid-for DeSantis as Trumpism without Trump is doomed to fail like all their latest machinations. They are so far out of touch with public sentiment (because they only scheme and work and socialize with, and marry each other) and so noticeable to actual populist nationalists that it’s like they’re all dancing to a song without noticing the music stopped.
Beautifully articulated.
” (because they only scheme and work and socialize with, and marry each other)” That is a fact.
Shhhh… I’d sure hate to talk them out of it when they’re all so busy running around, and stuff. Plus that look on their faces when the rug gets yanked out from under them, is absolutely priceless. That is unless the landsape changes of course. Til then, give em centerstage, crank up the mic‘s, and let the spotlights highlight every flaw and wrinkle no one seemed to notice before.

Let’s see: how many seasoned Republicans did Trump beat despite having no political record?
Imagine with his unprecedented presidential record!
A bloodbath.
Glorious!
