We all know the traits of Ron DeSantis, his handlers and his influencers when we encounter them in our lives. They are generally insecure people, constantly showing annoying traits of weaponized superiority and passive aggression. That said, notice the background mechanics of the Ron DeSantis statement today and you will notice why I keep pointing out that everything in his orbit is managed by a stable of handlers.
At the conclusion of his remarks about central bank digital currencies, the first question from the media came from Megan Nager – of the Florida Standard. DeSantis was prepped and ready, complete with reference points on the podium if needed. It’s almost certain that Pushaw and crew coordinated the first question for Ms. Nager, as they knew people were awaiting to hear DeSantis’ opinion.
Watch his response through the prism of rehearsal and management, and the flow of the response becomes brutally obvious. Video at 22:30 (prompted) WATCH:
“We have no interest in getting involved in what is a political spectacle created by a Soros-funded prosecutor.” … “I don’t know what goes into paying hush money to a porn star to secure silence over some type of alleged affair”…
Ron DeSantis says whatever his managers and handlers tell him to say. It really is that simple. He is an empty vessel. There is not an authentic bone in his body; everything comes from a controlled and consulted script.
Biden is now the best candidate in the race. That’s how pathetic Republicans are now.
No, President Trump is in the race and he is the best by far.
He’s the only one worth spit but he’s too old.
Thanks for the words of wisdom.
dude that was like 20 talking points ago.
Surely age is a state of mind and Trump is not in anyway mentally feeble.
Give me a friggin’ break.
Can’t do better than AGE?
Seriously?
We still see some recycling the “javanca” attack, …
They come here for AMPLIFICATION.
They post rolcon “talking points” here, knowing there are 100’s of thousands of eyes reading here, and they hope that SOME will be conned into buying their bullshit, and then repeating it.
I am in “late 60’s”, have experience at spontaneous, unscripted public speaking, and could no more stand up as PDJT does at his Rally’s, for several hours and speak, than I could fly to the moon.
In fact, one of the many positives of his Rally’s is it affirmatively, by clear demonstration refutes any attacks on age, mental accuity, etc.
We all hope to be as sound mentally as he is when we reach his age.
Wow… that’s the best you have?
LOL
Where are the clever trolls these days anyway?
Well, bye.
Agreed, too old. Otherwise, great policy ideas back in 16.
Zzzzz….
I used to work in a pulmonary function lab. My experience there, with hundreds of patients, made me realize how little age has to do with mental acuity and physical health. In one short span of time I had two — not ordinary — male patients that forever changed my stereotypical opinion of aging: One fellow was 52 years old — he had the physicality of an 80 year-old: ashen, wrinkled, bent over, wheezing like crazy, and resistant to following simple instructions.
In short order, this other man entered for his breathing tests, and he was tall, straight-standing, the picture of robust health. And sharp to boot. HE WAS 75.
Experience counts for a lot — in making mental notes about other human beings.
Yet, he ran circles around those lazy so-called congress critters for 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for 4 years. He has more energy than most men half his age.
He also accomplished more in 1 year than the career politicians accomplished in the last decades.
Well said
Bad drugs.
Ha ha ha!
Oh, wait, you were serious?
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!
I thought it a joke, too!
You seem to be the sort of person who believes everything the media tells you. Trump does not cause the chaos. He is simply responding to the never ending attacks from all sides. Some of us can see through the fog. Pity about you.
At least he said something while digging his hole deeper. As for my two worthless senators BarrASSo and lummis? Not a peep.
Repubs hating on Trump is one thing, but blinding themselves to the Soviet style US just-us system speaks volumes to their hatred of our country and it’s constitution.
Be thankful you don’t have Warnock and Ossoff for your Senators!
they are not your senators.
Very true, they were selected, not elected.
However….drives the point that we should work to repeal the 17th Amendment….if that were the case in 2018, 2020 and 2022, Jackoff…er..I mean Ossoff would be bagging groceries at Whole Foods and Warnock would be running over his wife and chasing after skirts in his church like MLK did…
Dr frank . I’ll up ya one . . . Merkley & Wyden . Yep we got taxation without representation
those ones probably ARE actually your senators, given how Oregonians vote. 😉
No way. Captain Keshel came to Oregon and found one of our largest counties had 30k illegal names in their voter rolls. The cheating machines are here and fraud is off the charts. We are controlled by demonrats at every level from top to bottom, so not much of a chance to root out the fraud. 😡😡
Yes here in Oregon government is cutting out money for rural schools, while promising a billion dollars for the homeless
Patty Fricking Murry and the gal from Calcutta 🙁
Jayapal serves in the U.S. House but I couldn’t tell you who is the second Senator from Washington state. Maybe Maria Cantwell?
I call them Warlock and tOssoff!
I’m one up on that with Crazy-Mazie Hirono.
Well I’ve got two – Liawatha Warren and Ed Markey (He Who Never Sets Foot in Somerville).
Maybe put together they beat Crazy-Mazie. But I agree she’s pretty much Def-Con-1 on the WokeaMania Meter.
Or Murray and Cant(do)well.
I don’t like to carp on spelling and punctuation, as I am usually the “victim” of the carping. Just wondering if you mispelled “Barr-“? I feel your pain with your senators. But then, you should live in Minnesota if you want to see worthless.
Then don’t.
He was spelling Barrasso. His senator. Correctly.
Nannying re spelling and grammar is the online kiss of death.
Some of us have called or emailed our Republican elected officials both state and federal and told them to speak out in support of Pres Trump.
We also told them to call on DeSantis for an apology as to his veiled remarks about the porn star and a possible affair between her and Pres Trump.
Daniels herself said there was no affair several years ago when she lost the law suit Pres Trump filed against her.
This is one possible way to “protest” that PT has asked us to do.
I may not make these RINOs do anything but it will let them know how many Trump supporters there are out here if they do not already.
Cheer up…you could have Durbin and Duckworth.
Mitt Romney. I win.
Not quite. I have Rubio
Fetterwoman (in absentia) and Featherweight Casey, here.
Donald Trump has done so much for our country, and thus so much for me personally as an American. Among those things is helping me to see through the crap from connivers like DeSantis and Pence. Obviously Sundance has a large role as well in my education on this.
They seem to think we will simply swallow whatever they feed us because we have no option but to do so. That is not the case, even more so after the calamity of the past two elections. We are not here to serve them and don’t need them to live our lives just fine.
We do not have to and should not be unlawful in our protest. We don’t have to walk off our jobs and not do what we need to live properly. We don’t need to and mustn’t resort to the tactics of the thugs on the left, cold anger will work. We should work, pay our taxes (at the lowest feasible withholding level), pay for the shelter, energy, and food we need, but otherwise not cooperate and never relent.
Yes, they forget that DeSantis is a governor as such he’s never done squat for most of us. And live on TV he just threw a FL resident under the bus.
That’s what I do not understand. If RDS will not fight for the rights of one of his citizens in Florida then why would he fight for any of us when he becomes president??
Very excellent point!
Bingo!
No, you understand it PERFECTLY, and expressed it succinctly.
He hasn’t fought for the 100+ Jan 6 political prisoners who are Floridians.
He has the MOST Jan 6ers compared to any other state and he’s done nothing of substance for them.
I think some Florida citizens must be More Equal Than Others in his mind.
rds is assuming americans are stupid, so he’ll create a new script very soon… this guy is not presidential material, governor material = yes. But I do agree w Wayne Root’s latest post that there must b a way to unify Trump and DeSantis so the republican vote won’t be split and we end up w 4 more yrs of fascism that will finish off this once great Constitutional Republic.
DeeSilent’s job isn’t to split.
His jab is to shiv.
I think it was Wayne Root who said we should not purchase anything this coming
weekend (if President Trump is indicted). Do not purchase gas for your car, any
groceries or anything else for three days. Its like fasting.
Didn’t Wayne recently try to make a case for only way to win 2024 is a Trump/DeShitis ticket?
I don’t know
I don’t follow him
but saw what he said online
J.D. Vance
@JDVance1
I’ve been asked by multiple reporters if an indictment would lead me to rescind my endorsement of Donald Trump. The answer is: hell no. A politically motivated prosecution makes the argument for Trump stronger. We simply don’t have a real country if justice depends on politics.

That has to be part of the plan to scare people away from
Trump..Doesn;t seem to be workin why else would they keep
asking that question to people.
Silly Alternate Controlling government does not realize the cheese has moved and their age-old fear tactics and moral-high-ground tactics are dead to us? No power in them any longer.
yep. That’s what many say, including Elon.
One distant possibility is – Desantis is playing a role for Trump — in partnership with him.
There is some thinking within politic circles that — running Unopposed harms a candidate in the general election on Election Day. That popularity is gained through struggle + competition.
I don’t give it too much of a chance that Desantis is being asked to play this role in preparation for a real run in 2028 or later — but it is a real possibility.
Plus, he could think that he could become an Obama or a Bill Clinton + be given the nomination ahead of schedule if he shows remarkably well or something happens to Trump…
neither of their egos would allow this
The donor class already came out for him.
Does President Trump have an ego of large proportions, really? Or is it what has been drilled into our heads?
For an man who is supposed to have a big ego, he sure does humble himself for his country and for We the People of These United States.
I think PDJT’s big talking is, as Bongino used to say, part of the “I’m From Queens” persona – he basically adopts it for public speaking to have maximum impact. It doesn’t appear to be the way he talks in private.
For those of us who have lived near or within the New York media market for 4 decades, we know that “The Donald” was a character made for the media to slurp up.
Iggy,
I generally respect and enjoy your comments, but in this you are delving into pure fantasy.
I have seen others posting similar comments, the notion that RDS is actually working WITH PDJT, to “get the barstuds”; it’s FANTASY.
RDS is a skunk, and I recognised the smell, long before Sundance began posting the results of DNA tests, confirming his species.
Once you learn the smell of a skunk, it’s easy to recognise.
Romney stunk, and anyone SHOULD have been able to smell it, 8 million R voters DID, in 2012 and withheld their votes.
Spot On dutchman!
Absolutely!
People are in complete denial of who DeSantis really is. He is as much of a back-stabbing Democrat as Mitt Romney.
Did eight million really withhold their vote and cost an election or, knowing what we know now, was it merely stolen?
Maybe half and half. I had no idea about Romney’s perfidy in 2012 – though I’d already gotten a whiff of a serious problem with Ryan when I saw him lie down in the debate with Biden.
According to Biden, Obama used the cheat machine too. I don’t thin anyone had any idea what a snake in the grass Romney was until way after the election.
You think it is beyond the realm of possibility altogether?
I doubt it but believe it is possible, because I do know with certainty – it has been noted in the past by people who work in the world of Politics —- that — NOT having any competition for the Party Nomination is seen as BAD for the campaign over all. That it viewed as deflating campaigns against the other party.
I also know with certainty — due to historical facts — some candidates have run in prior elections with an eye on a far more serious attempt in future years – especially non-elderly candidates like Bill Clinton + Obama.
— I’d give this a 10% — but I don’t see how anyone can rule it out of the realm of possibility…
No…DeSantis is playing from the Jeb Bush playbook.
The tone of voice with which RD spoke was not friendly and sounded sanc “tin”monius. MAGA, behold the crash test dummy!
PDJT is a known quantity. He doesn’t need to battle with anyone in the primary just to prove himself to the voters. It’s much more like he is running as an incumbent, but with challengers to fend off.
He can fight them and be unaffected, but when they fight him and lose, they run the risk of becoming Jeb! redux.
Well – he is running as an incumbent.
The idea is not that Trump has to prove anything.
When I’ve heard people like Larry Nichols or Carle Rove talk about this issue – it is about fear that running with zero significant competition harms the frontrunner by lowering the motivation of the voters… that there is more Energy + Momentum when a candidate is seen as overcoming real opposition.
Team Zero and the fall of the Republic is not sufficient opposition to motivate MAGA?
No, Ron used Trump to get elected and he just proved his nickname of Ron DeSanctimonious is legit. Always get on Trump.
iggb … check out Sundance’s twitter feed
So much to learn there that doesn’t make it into a blog here on CTH.

I’m not “ON” twitter — I just pull that link up in my browser and get very informed.
Sorry but DeSantis has revealed himself to be nothing more than a caricature of craven ambition. No partnership to be had here. No more kumbaya. No more benefit of the doubt.
My hope addiction has thought that too. But I dismissed it.
I have thought others might be doing a deceptive act as well. All turned out to be disappointments.
Trump is to real to fake like that.
It would be a pleasant surprise from Desantis. He would be the one playing the dope, then “changing his mind” and trying to convince his followers he was just playing a game to fool the deep state. That’s too much of a risk and he has taken too much money. They have compramat on him, and he wouldn’t risk his reputation on blatant deception. He’d rather deceive himself the way he is now. If he deceived the deep state, its a sure ticket to be Arkancided, Hoffa’s, Scalia’d, Epstiened. The enemy has NO regard for human life.
mind blowing drugs?
That is at a level of deception proven not characteristic of President Trump.
President Trump is only candidate who does not and will not play mind fock games to get our votes. Does not need to. He already has them.
For anyone who is a Super Trump Fan but hasn’t read my thoughts on this in the past —
my $$$ is on Desantis being asked to play Ross Perot to create an excuse for “why Trump lost in 2024” —- so it the Election Fraud won’t be so brazenly obvious this time…
— In either case — Desantis wouldn’t be looking to win in 2024 but to build up credibility as a candidate – especially to the Party Insiders – so that he’ll get their support in 2028 or later…
Except that he is destroying his entire political future.
His perfidy will never be forgiven.
DeSantis is having real bad day.
It boggles the mind how he ever thought he ever had a chance.
I guess that cash clouds the vision. He should revisit his own morality.
And the ambitious wife, just like Dr. Jill dreaming of becoming first lady, and them recreating Camelot.
It wouldn’t surprise me if his wife is this way.
she sees herself as a fairy princess/Jackie O. you see the stuff she wears for his state of the gov and inauguration? they also got MARRIED at Disney and she was a princess…
OMG – seriously? Did they really?
The barbie doll image she projects does not impress me.
Sorry, but in my support of Donald Trump I don’t have to denigrate DeSantis. And I wish Trump would also. Frankly, I don’t see any problem with his statement. It was a payment to a porn star to keep her quiet … that statement makes no reference or implication of illegality. Why do we have a problem with language that is clearly factual?
keep watching MSNBC, troll
I have a problem with language that didn’t need to be spoken at all.
The sinking principal at work here.
Trying to sink others to try and elevate one’s self worth is not going to work here.
Even Stormy said they never had sex or an affair so why the need to portrait her in as salacious a light as possible in conjunction with Trumps name.
Its not playing well in Peoria.
Bingo !!!
Speaking of Peoria…where is our fellow Treeper of that first name???
has anyone seen him?
The real rub for me was him saying he wasn’t knowledgeable enough to comment on it…after he commented on it. D’oh!
Yes, he wanted us to think he knows so little about these things because he would never, ever, in a million years be in that position. You never know Ron what will come out of the woodwork.
……And then he was not knowledgeable after all because Stormy already said no affair or sex or anything.
If you fail to recognise and identify THE PROBLEM, you will not recognise the solution.
The problem is NOT “the Dems”; the problem is and always has been the RNC/GOPe “leadership” that has abused the Republican base, since the inception of the Republican party.
RDS is simply emblematic of the problem, and if you can’t see that, you are will fully blind, and would probably vote for ROMNEY, if he were the R candidate in 2024.
anyone see the weak sauce that RomnyRonna put out? yeah we got trouble with the GopE. I can see them pulling financing and asking him to “step aside” for the good of the party with all his “baggage”…sounds like Georgia is gonna indict too on some bogus BS…
Sorry, but in my support of Donald Trump I want to see anyone and everyone who dares to deny him his SECOND TERM which was stolen from him AND ME do be squished like the cockroaches that they are.
All of these RINO candidates should be fighting for PDJT to get the nomination and the presidency. IF they were true MAGA then that should be their sole focus. They should be working on putting PDJT back in the white house.
His comment was snarky. If he was on Team Trump/Team MAGA then he would have used different words and not taken a cheap shot by what he said.
Could not disagree more. DeSantis brought this on himself. He used Trump just like McConnell, Graham, Romney etc. took his money or help in an election then proceeds to run against him even before he was inaugurated. Not only has he betrayed Trump but he has betrayed the people of Florida. He really got out over his skis and not only will be lose in 2024, he is as popular as Pence now.
What is clearly factual is . . .
A) Cohen payed the money without Trump’s knowledge initially, then Trump repaid him after the fact and . . .
B) Daniels admitted in court she lied and got slapped down by the judge who ordered her to pay Trump’s legal fees to the tune of $300 grand.
Clearly Bragg is in search of a crime where there is no crime.
Add that DeSactum KNOWS this and still made the comment in perfect sel-righteousness mixed with distain for President Trump and porn stars.
Twinkie Butt is being egged on by Meg Reiss, an assistant deputy AG from… the U.S. Dept. of Justice. That tells you all you need to know.
What did DeSantis just do if not denigrate Trump with his porn star comment. He made a backhanded reference to paying off a porn star. There was nothing to gain from that other than getting in a nasty dig.
DeSantis is proving he has no class, either.
Both Trump and Stormy Daniels denied anything occurred between the two of them.
DeSantis should shut up because Trump is far more intelligent and wise than DeSantis will ever be.
He said it at least twice too. So tone deaf to the situation.
You really outta do your homework before you post: “It was a payment to a porn star”…that is false; it was a payment to his attorney for ‘legal fees’….
There are multitudes of links posted on this site and you could research it yourself. You are posting ‘gossip’.
Not a good look tdog…
Are porn stars not to be paid?/sarc
So, when, exactly, did you stop beating your wife?
Are you into literal interpretation of words this way all of the time? Or are you able to adequately evaluate things like innuendo and subtle implications in statements and language?
Maybe you’re on the spectrum?
Because DeSantis is knowlingly feeding a smear. DeSantis’ comment was designed to mislead the public to think that President Trump some how caused his own troubles. The truth is he was a victim of criminal extortion based on a lie.
In 2018 Stormy Daniels publicly admitted she lied (see below news links).
On the subject of “hush money,” I’ve researched years ago the best advice for businesses or anyone personally dealling with a viral smear campaign. The sad truth is, no one can ever get ahead of smear once it has gone viral. The best advice if you are wealthy is to provide a payoff w NDA attached. Daniels admitted she lied and tried to criminally extort money on that lie.

https://www.denverpost.com/2018/01/31/stormy-daniels-donald-trump-never-happened/
It’s like a back handed compliment, but it’s back handed ‘support.’ Completely self serving and rude, it is someone pretending to be on someone’s side, but really wants to put a negative picture of their target in people’s minds. If you’re brainwashed, stupid, clueless or your basic dime a dozen liberal looking to see Donald in a bad light, it sounds just fine.
Ron thought he was being clever with a ‘subtle’ stab in the back. It was a nasty low blow.
you need to get your facts straight first
Whoa, DeSanctum denigrated President Trump with falsehood. Stormy already validated she never had an affair or sex or anything with him.
Ron DeSerpente, King Of The Lizard People, BushCorp. Ringer. I shoulda voted for Crist.
As RDS implodes, watch for THEM to try to bring in another “ringer” off the bench.
PDJT is correct, that the 2024 POTUS election WILL be the Titanic battle, “crunch time” and decisive to the War.
IMHO, they LOSE, regardless of the outcome of the election.
If PDJT is declared the “winner” and sworn in, he will destroy THEM.
If, as many suspect here, they “steal” the election, the bogus “results” will be rejected by the electorate.
THEY can not win, and they will NOT concede.
It’s much like the Ukraine war, where they also (I believe) can not win, but refuse to concede.
Ukraine lost awhile ago and everyone except the delusional west knows it.
Looking forward to their failure to launch the Virginia Governor next. Poor guy is gonna get wrecked too.
I’m already looking closely at Vivek Ramaswamy. He’s talking a good game – but still apparently running as a competitor. What’s that about?
I think Vivek is looking into the future. He knows he needs name recognition.
Sundance on Twitter declared he is the Miriam Williamson of the GOPe Primary.
As I see it, a sing-songy rainbows and butterflies distraction.
Just another tool in the GOPe roadmap.
Bye, bye Ron!!
Ron De Whiner!
He just showed all the lefties that it is easy to get under his skin, and that they can use that to steer him off topic and into looking like a cry baby!
Ron is as phony & Rino as Judas Pence
Checking out The Right Scoop’s DeSantis post about the arrest situation reveals two things:
Same snake handlers said a different way. Punchline begins at 1:08 with pictures in the left corner. Note the real hush is never to say Trump’s name
Trey Gowdy is a giant POS. Nothing more, nothing less.
Sounds like something Ol Mitchie McConnell would say. Hmmmm….
I wonder how Ol’ “Mason Verger” MaoConnell is feeling these days..
His employers, the CCP have decided that he has outlived his usefulness, and so are throwing him under the bus, IMHO.
I anticipated this would occur, soon after the midterms and here it is, right on schedule.
Eventually, he will announce he is retiring from the Senate, and THUNE will move up to take his place.
I agree; it’s been well planned for awhile now.
No doubt that President Trump has been aware of this for quite some time.
Spit on a mangy redbone hound!
Didn’t some auxillary lawyer for Capt. Ron’s Pseudo- Campaign just commit “Palmetto-cide” in the Jacksonville area after some dirty business came to light??
You must be talking about Kent. https://nypost.com/2022/12/13/desantis-donor-kent-stermon-dies-in-apparent-suicide-amid-probe-report/
Yes, thanks.
The GOPe’s new Max Headroom!
STEEEEE-rike THREE ! yeerrrrrrrr OUT
I was hoping Ron was a Machiavellian, taking BMD cash, stringing the Donor Class along only to turn MAGA when it mattered. But those vain hopes are over.
Another CTH commenter (I wish I took a screenshot so as to be able to give credit) coined his new handle:
“Ron DeStablishment”
RON DeSwamptis
I love that new handle too, been using it ever since I first saw it.
You know, that DeSanctimonious nickname was kinda cheesy when I heard it the first time, but I’m beginning to understand after much thought why it was chosen. I find it interesting that DeS wants to go on a moral crusade now about Stormy Daniels, even though she’s already admitted that nothing happened between them — plus she was forced to pay legal fees to Trump.
Remember the old days when they told us that Trump hid nuclear secrets in Mar-A-Lago, and then we found out that was B.S.? Buckle up, folks. This is gonna be a very bumpy ride.
I can’t help it… every time I see him, I think of this puppet. Idk, maybe it’s the eyes? 😁
The clip of that doll barfing is so funny.
That entire movie is hysterically funny. One of the funniest ever made, albeit very crude, IMHO. Too bad the South Park Guys have made it to the do not watchlist for me as their lawyer pays Hunter’s taxes and legal fees.
“Listen here, Chuck”..
The Governor of Florida does not hear the ugly truth being screamed in his ear.
America is now manifestly a fascist country.
Be careful what you wish for, and if Ronny somehow ascends to the high office he thinks he wants, he will be no more than the messenger boy for the State. The totalitarian State is a jealous State, and only moves in one direction.
Professional politicians are the silliest creatures in existence, and Ron may crave the pomp and ceremony of the Presidency. He’ll get that, and very little else.
Practice reading off the teleprompter. You can, at least, surpass slow Joe in that skill.
But throw away all your policy plans. Attempting to assert your own agenda could have fatal consequences.
Retired Magistrate here: DeSantis is just as bad a Pence; maybe worse because without President Trump DeSantis would not be governor.
And you think Pence would EVER have gotten as close as a heartbeat away from the Oval, if not for Trump?
PENCE was always another Romney/Ryan, designated loser, without PDJT.
IN 2008, I voted for Palin, not McStain.
In 2012, I left the ballot blank.
In 2016, I voted for DJT,…NOT Pence.
And yes, I know how ballots work, I am talking about who I was motivated to vote for.
They all thought they could get rid of PDJT when he was in office and that Pence would ascend to the Presidency and then get elected again twice.
And they tried so hard to make it happen. Total snakes.
Reminds me of when Joe Pesci and Robert DeNiro are out in the desert in the movie “Casino” and Joe Pesci is yelling “..YOU’RE ONLY OUT HERE BEACUASE O’ MEEE!”..
Right I’ve always been of the opinion that this is how events panned out. in 2016 on October 7th they released the Pussygate tape, expecting to force Trump out, he weathered that nonsense then towards the end of October the Uniparty had Stormy Daniels primed. I’ve a feeling the name of the Never Trumper Elliott Broidy may become familiar in a bit. Friend of the Bushes, McCain, Clintons etc and in charge of the RNC fundraising committee at the time. He appointed Cohen to that committee.
Anyway I have always thought that DJT likely coughed up the money as he couldn’t take any more bad publicity as they were still running on about the Pussygate plus they were pulling women out of the woodwork with offers of large chunks of money or having their mortgages paid off if they would accuse Trump of various things.
The other point that people don’t mention though the media must be fully aware was he was at the event with another woman as she remarked way back on television. That is a private matter between him and Melania and it’s a lot of years ago now. She said she was with him all the time apart from when he played a round of golf. The money Daniels received was basically “go away” money, she’s alleged to have said she would have asked for a lot more if she’d really had sex with him.
As for DeSantis he’s very wet behind the ears politically, nobody knew who he was 5 years ago.
A ho knows how to ho.
I broke down and listened.
Wow..
#FRDS
BTW, pressured into it after 2 days RDS speaks with an unneccessary, intended knife twist
Sounds like something “Jeb please clap” would say. DeSantis is on his way to win the Jeb Bush (NOT) presidency.
It just occurred to me that these responses came across like something Hillary would spew AFTER she took “spontaneity training”. Remember that?
what, like with a cloth?
“Ah ain’t no way tahred…”
While may see this about DeSantis.. I was just reading fox new app
they titled it DeSantis gives Fiery speech.
and the comments were many pro DeSantis.. How he was great. how
he did this with dignity no name calling.. they didn;t seem to see any
issue with this speech.
Yeah, the dignity of bringing up “porn star” unnecessarily.
That kind of dignity?
Pathetic FNC.
They had say, 20 people each primed and ready to go, with many “online identities” so that they could flood the comments section with pro-RDS comments,..actually 4-5 people are enough.
Once you know what to look for, it’s pretty easy to spot.
I wonder whether any of them were “careful.”
Pretty Fox has a slew of paid DeSoros bots ready to comment on anything they post about him.
It’s all fake.
Those are all bots. NY Post is full of that now. Rich Lowry writes a fake article and the bots just praise DeSantis.
I was there too and thought they must be screening. I told the everywhere else, DeSantis is as welcome as a whore in a church.
You really think those were NOT paid comments? like astroturfing? paid to shill?
What an Asshole
You say ahole, I say douchebag.
But. Let’s not quibble over this.
Ron has certainly lost some weight. He is trying to lose it, or is the stress getting to him already.
These people never learn, it is a shame they refuse to accept the MAGA way of life. They would be loved and rich beyond their wildest dreams. America and the West is losing badly.
He doesn’t like the Meatball moniker. Not sure if weight loss will help though.
Ozempic is what I am hearing.
He probably losses his appetite to overwhelming depression once he watched his numbers sink.
Has to lose weight because in the last few pics, he was stuffed into his suits. Looked like the Michelin man.
he looks short to me
Fascinating what De Santis, has become. As the Governor of Florida he has excelled. As a presidential candidate it is so very clear that he is bought and paid for, and at that point he has become more of the problem and not a part of a solution.
WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT HE HAS BECOME!
Always felt he would have been a great running mate with Trump. Do 4 years as the VP then step right into the next president for the 2028 election. NOT NO MORE!
Everything “Great” he appeared to do as Governor, was all CALCULATED to craft the image of him, as “America’s Governor”.
It was all FAKE, and is falling apart.
IMHO;
For the MAGA movement, there can only be ONE Candidate for POTUS, in 2024,..PDJT.
PENCE clearly showed us all, just how vitally important the VPOTUS position actually is,..therefore;
For the MAGA movement, there can only be ONE Candidate for VPOTUS, in 2024,..KL.
To even discuss a “short list” for VP, is absurd as discussing any options for POTUS.
Why would we “settle” for anything less?
I can think of only one possible reason not to have Kari as V.P.
That would be if she actually won her fight and was actually installed into the Governorship that she won.
However – I don’t think there’s much need to spend time strategizing on that score… Plenty of time to think about it when and if such a miracle occurred…
just a thought
the crooks might just keep her lawsuits in play
so she doesn’t have a chance to be President Trump’s VP
What is the difference in a porn star going for the money to be rich at the expense of her decency and a politician taking the money to stop another candidate from being elected and getting rich at the expense of his decency.
Maybe RDS will know what goes into that sort of money.
When he does, he has answered his own question.
In 2018 Stormy Daniels publicly admitted she never had sex with President Trump.

Ron is a loser. SD was right all along as usual.
God bless President Trump. Please protect him and give him wisdom. Amen.
It almost seems like Ron wants to set himself up.
He is in a completely closed off ecosystem at this point and has allowed himself to be completely out of touch with the voters outside of Florida.
His handlers are really screwing him up.
Ma’am, he is completely out of touch with voters in Florida as well.
“I don’t know what goes into paying hush money to a porn star to secure silence over some type of alleged affair”…
Sorry, Ron, but your closing phrase: . . . is vomit inducing; to heap abuse on a man who has served this country with more honor than you have in your little finger, says nothing at all about President Trump but says everything we need to know about you: and you don’t look pretty, nor do you smell good.
It does tell me, however, that YOU are a desperate character, willing to knife in the back a man who’s viciously assaulted by more hydras than even you can count; and here we all imagined you were many cuts above the ordinary lying politician.
So thank you; now we know without question that YOU are not the man you pretend to be
The master troller!

Too early in the game – for desantis who is another sellout deepstate traitorious fake – phoney and fraud – desanctimonious!!
What will be revealed about ronnie baby’s past when his tree of life is shaken in the many months ahead?? Uniparty dirty monies?!! Soros funded monies??!!
More will be revealed by God in God’s time!!
The oscumma crime family – the clinton and bush crime families and the biden crime families have done and are still doing worse in terms of treason??!!
Michael Avanatti is an extortionist, he was Stormy’s attorney.
It sounded to me, like DeSantis was very prepared for that question. And I have to admit, it is pretty darn embarrassing for Trump. I would have to say, not many men have paid hush money to a porn, star or prostitute. That being said, it’s not the most unusual thing to ever happen. It is also something that a guy probably would not put on his résumé. The main point in the DeSantis response involved criticizing the lawlessness of Soros backed prosecutors. The fact that he let a little jab go out to Trump after the mini barbs he has taken isn’t too surprising. Politics is not wiffleball.
too bad you are not prepared with the facts
Indeed. I smell Cheetos again.
How many women have come forward and claimed he assaulted them? They were all proven to be liars. The funniest one was the bimbo on the flight from Europe. I don’t think you understand the game at all.
All dogs too – like he would even be interested.
Apologies to all of our pets who are beautiful creatures.
Govnarije!! Serbian is a beautiful language as one word can be used in various ways, can’t really be translated, my apologies. God Bless PDJT!!
The good news is that it is virtually impossible to embarrass PDJT. He functions differently than most humans that way.
What a meatball.
Wow, that response from DeSanctimonious was so obviously scripted and rehearsed that I couldn’t listen to him ramble for more 30 seconds before I had to stop the video. Is there anything genuine about this guy?
I’m disliking DeSantis more and more. Another empty suit!
President Trump’s first instinct to label him DeSanctimonious was right on the money. I went into the primary season liking this guy, he’s now dead to me. What a sanctimonious little douche!
Nasty little lickspittle. Should just have kept his mouth shut. His handlers are not helping his numbers.
We should all make a donation to PDJT if he’s arrested tomorrow.
I could not sit through it all. Rehearsed speech. Not off the cuff at all.
I heard The Donald is considering a new nickname for RDS . . .
Ron Romney . Hooraah !
B-By Ron.
perhaps DeSantis’s claim to “not know” is a lot more like Joe Bidens “i don’t know”
where up is down and down is up… j/s
#SnakeInGarden
Oh I’m sure Ron was a virgin on his wedding night and has had sex three times with Casey in the dark since. Furthermore, I’m sure someone had to explain to him what pornography was before his speech today.
And that he acts like he doesn’t know how the extortion game is played.
Wait until the truth of DeSanctimonius’ past sees the light of day.
It’s not going to be what he wants out there; but it’s coming..
Yes, I do have a crystal ball.
Done with Ron….
