...”The GOPe doesn’t quite realize, Donald J Trump isn’t the cause of their failure; he is the result of their failure”…
Before getting to the latest developments regarding the worries of the mid-tier donor class within the Republican apparatus, I want to provide some context for the overall Ron DeSantis (RdS) management agenda.
I can trace the origin of the RdS 2024 scheme to an originating timeframe in late fall 2021. It may go back further than that, but it is at least in place by the late fall of 2021. That means that everything within the professional Republican apparatus, those who manipulate the political events from the controlling wing of the Republican side of the UniParty, had RdS ’24 as the agenda throughout the 2022 midterm calendar.
With that context, the events around the 2022 midterms and the surprising lack of professional Republican gains in the midterm election, start to take on an entirely new Machiavellian light. Not necessarily the RNC corporation; rather, the subsidiary weaponized groups including the Republican Governors Association and the Senate reelection schemes spearheaded by Mitch McConnell et al. In hindsight, those were all done with the context of laying the groundwork for ’22 MAGA defeat and ’24 RdS rise as an outcome.
Throughout the first half of 2022, I was saying there’s no way the GOPe wing would be this stupid. This was based primarily by my own filter saying there had to be a limit to what they think they can pull off.
The Wall St, K-Street, multinational and billionaire funding into RdS during the spring of 2022 was massive, but I held a primary prism that RdS himself had to be smart enough to know it was a suicide mission. However, with the events that unfolded in July and August of 2022, it became obvious that RdS was going all-in on a management program for a 2024 bid.
Perhaps taken in by the intoxicating allure of money, perhaps it didn’t take much convincing, I don’t know. But it was clear the ’24 race was the pretext for everything happening in/around the RdS orbit, including the 5-days in the bunker after the Mar-a-Lago raid and the rebranding national image launch thereafter.
We all know the GOPe operational motive for removing MAGA from the base of influence; it no longer needs to be repeated.
Quite simply the America First agenda puts *their* money at stake, and collectively that amounts to trillions of dollars in multinational globalist financial control. The scale of the money behind the MAGA opposition is really the biggest challenge; it is almost unfathomable, and that scale is represented within the size of the war chest they assembled for RdS.
The top of this financial pyramid holds a grip on political power that is threatened by the worldview, outlook and economic nationalist policy of Donald Trump. The top this system will not ‘lose’ with America-First Trump, they will only gain at a slower rate. This group will not leave their throne, they only see a slower assembling within their vaults.
The Blackrock, Vanguard, State Street and WEF crews will follow the policy and invest in America, they will just hate doing it. They will hate the best-play of slower gains because the returns are not as lucrative, expedient or fraught with the simple indulgences of their custom.
However, underneath that top-tier, there are many layers of vested financial interests at lesser but more generational risk. The Cornwallis crowd will see a much more difficult time with America-First in place advancing their affluence and influence. Loss for them changes things. This is the group being discussed by the NBC article.
Remember, ultimately despite the power dynamic, they are few – the MAGA army is many. It is within these mid-tier donor groups we now see worry about whether RdS can fulfill his assignment as protector of the realm.
WASHINGTON (NBC) – A number of the Florida governor’s donors and allies are worried his recent stumbles suggest he may not be ready for a brutal fight against Donald Trump. Some feel DeSantis needs to accelerate his timeline to run for the GOP presidential nomination and begin directly confronting Trump if he’s to have any chance of thwarting the former president’s momentum. Others believe DeSantis should sidestep Trump altogether and wait until 2028 to run.
At a Sunday luncheon following the annual Red Cross ball in Palm Beach, Florida, a group of 16 prominent Republicans, described by one attendee as a mix of DeSantis backers and Trump “skeptics,” discussed misgivings about the governor’s standing for the future if he tussles with the former president.
“They liked him — many of them might even support him,” the person who was at the event said of DeSantis. “But they thought on balance that his long-term future was better without him trying to take Trump head on.”
“He will get scarred up” by Trump, the person added.
Then there’s conservative billionaire shipping goods magnate Richard Uihlein and his wife, Elizabeth, whose $500,000 in combined contributions ranked them among the most generous donors to DeSantis’ 2022 re-election campaign. A person familiar with the strategy around Uihlein’s spending said that right now, “The brakes are pumped,” adding, “The polling really made different people pause.”
[…] A GOP strategist who has spoken directly with donors in Palm Beach said that this is a week that should be good for DeSantis, considering his chief rival for the nomination could be indicted any day now. And the fact that it’s been so tough for the governor has given some donors pause.
“DeSantis is doing a book tour. He’s barnstorming the country, and his polls are going down,” the strategist said. “Meanwhile, Trump’s potentially under indictment, and Trump’s going up. It’s just not a good look for DeSantis.”
This person added that donors who have given to DeSantis over the past year or two are still open to supporting him for president, but they’re also starting to take a look at other potential candidates like Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., as DeSantis has “fumbled” big moments. (read more)
The problem for the DeSantis management team is the running for office while pretending not to run. However, if RdS were to announce his intent, he would need to resign from the role of Florida Governor due to the “resign to run” rule. Conversely, if RdS asks the Florida legislature to change the rule, it becomes essentially an admission of his intent. It’s the same thing…. So, this annoying pretending -which is obvious- is starting to really annoy voters even more.
As I think back to my own viewpoint in early 2022, I have completely changed my opinion on Ron DeSantis as a smart politician. He is not as smart as I was giving him credit for. In fact, this entire RdS 2024 operation simply affirms they really are that stupid. Desperate and stupid.
I knew he was off when the SunCoast Parkway Extensions went from “not going to happen” to “we will do some studies” to “we will get public input” to “who cares about tortoises and indigo snakes” to “we won’t mow down communities” to ” we will develop responsibly” to “aren’t you excited about paying an arm and a leg for a fast way to drive to the Tampa/St.Pete Metro for dining, shopping, culture and nightlife??”..
Rinos gonna steal the primaries. Write-in PDJT. Throw in the monkey wrench to the machine.
Sorry, RDS is a no go for me after partnering with the moneyed elite. He cannot come back from that.
Tim Scott, Lol. He’s a Nimrata Haley appointee that views the world through his blackness. He’s a non-starter too along with Haley, Pompeo, Pence, Younkin or any other GOPe schmuck they push out there.
The candidates…
President Trump vs Everybody Else Not Trump
It is as simple as that.
Indeed it is.
Didn’t take long for Joni Ernst, Cory Gardner, Rubio, Crenshaw, and the other TP-elected officials to sell out.
FOR SURE JONI ERNST
She is a STAIN on the state of IOWA!!!!!
She’s always standing right beside Mitch in all his Senate shots. Thune and Barasso and Cornyn.
Everyone has something or someone that they can be blackmailed with & anyone that doesn’t can be maneuvered into that position.
Then there are those that are just plain sucked into the vortex of money, perceived power & privilege.
They all have 1 thing in common, a weakness borne of little/no faith. Too weak to say no thanks or to weak to weather the storm if they did. Very few have any principles & even less have any ethics or a moral code. Sad.
Then there’s this:

Truth social thinks I’m from some other country. I tried signing up when it first started up without any luck. I wonder how many others it is locking out.
The Democrats are hoping Ron will be the nominee. They will immediately bring out the questions surrounding his connection to Abu Ghraib. For that matter, I would like to know the details of that, too.
Ron’s campaign can’t Brain, they have the Dumb
It’s Jeb Bush 2.0 only Ron Destablishment loses before he starts.
Wrong DeSantis. He’s a FILTHY PHONY.
Yes. He is basically Jeb Bush with a software download for decent one liners and jokes. They think that one layer is going to fool people into voting for Jeb.
RdS in fact “grew” up in Florida’s Jeb Bush tenure. Now look at his donors through the BUSH prism.
Maybe Ron is going to ask Jeb! to be his VP – but I guess that would not work as the Pres & VP aren’t ever from the same state? Maybe Jeb! has moved to another state and it will be all right.
The VP pick has to be a diversity hire.
I’m sensing some extremely low energy with that pairing.
They’ve already lost. Hope they’ve spent $ millions on LOSING to the MAGA base. And they’ve FOREVER tainted their boy Rhonda. Another GOPe FAIL.
Over before it started!
Bit by bit folk are starting to realize they have seen this show before.
Ronda The Snake indeed.
“OPTICS” Alone is an empty suit.
I would love voters to say, “you know, I really don’t have time to know what’s going on with Ron De Santis – I have other stuff I have to think about and his Presidential aspirations did not make it on to my list of stuff to think about”
“A number of the Florida governor’s donors and allies are worried his recent stumbles suggest he may not be ready for a brutal fight against Donald Trump.”
Donald Trump is a New York real estate developer who swam for 50 years in a sea totally hostile to him (for reasons we are not permitted to say out loud). He didn’t just survive. He became an apex predator. And he is OUR apex predator, MAGA, America first. Anyone who thinks he is ready for a “brutal fight against Donald Trump” is self-destructively delusional. “Desperate and stupid” sums it up nicely.
As for this donor class, it’s hard to morph yourself into a Third Way globalist multi-nationalist so you can leave America behind, when you have 110 million furious MAGA natives hot on your heels chasing your ass as you try to make it to the boat. Ooga booga. “Here, Ron. YOU go talk to them.”
Trump 2024
Whoopie doo. UniParty thought Trump was a joke, then got their asses handed to them when he won.
Then Schumer fired shot across the bow saying intel community has 6 ways to get Trump.
Judicial, Congress and people in Trump’s administration went after him and found nothing and THEY’RE still working to get him on something. Then came the STEAL. Five state legislatures certified a fraudulent election and no one in Congress said anything except created J6 to ignore the vote on investigating.
THEY nulled our voice, bankrupted our businesses, violated our worship and continue to murder citizens through mandated COVID jabs…while the medical community looked on and said nothing.
If MAGA thinks for one minute the UniParty will allow Trump into their club and put our economic future in Main Street…then I got a bridge you can buy.
Congress is selling US out to the highest bidder, while extracting our wealth through taxes, regulations, EO’s, and mandates. They have the balls to tell US what we can drive, how we heat our homes, what appliances we can cook our gruel on. The cornerstone of this country is liberty and the slow fuse of tyranny works to remove it from our lives.
In the end it’s not about Trump but controlling us. How many steals will it take before we end it?
“In the end it’s not about Trump but controlling us. How many steals will it take before we end it?”
They only need one more steal … the one in 24. Because there will not be anyone like Trump again. So if we want to put an end to this march toward 1984, we need to make sure the election process (both primary and general) in 2024 is honest. That it won’t be susceptible to cheating like the last 2(+?) elections. And right now, I don’t see that happening. I think we’re dropping the ball. Being (perhaps deliberately) distracted by inconsequential things. Being fed hopium rather than being encouraged to be realistic. Being encouraged to give up our rights.
I suggest we have 2nd Amendment protection at the ballot boxes that were stuffed last election and ensure it doesn’t happen again. Do you have any suggestions on how to prevent a repeat of 2000 Mules?
Better yet, in person voting only, on the day of election. NO ballot harvesting. Absentee ballots only for those who are verifiably unable to get to a voting station due to physical infirmities. ID required. No late or early voting. And all counting must be completed within 24 hours of the end of voting.
Go to http://www.omega4america.com and see what’s going on with cleaning voter rolls in your state/county. It’s our only hope.
Ha, ha, ha. I live in California. They are never going to clean ANY voter rolls here. They are actually working to allow the illegals to vote!
You’re dreaming if you think that will result in fair and honest elections. And by 2024. It’s not a hope … it’s hopium. Make a system complex … and that’s all they’re doing … then you make it corruptible.
We need to return to what worked years ago … when elections results were known by morning and cheating wasn’t possible. When it was one person entering one vote on Election Day. Not months before or weeks after.
Get rid of 99.99% of absentee ballots … they are mostly a means to cheat. The people who demanded them intended them to be a means to cheat. You get to use one only if you actually are physically unable to get to a voting both on Election Day.
Get rid of electronic voting and counting … they are a means to cheat. The people who suggested them did so knowing they’d be a means to cheat. Vote on paper ballots and hand count them. It’s not complex. It’s not rocket science. We don’t need rocket science.
The truth is that anything else being offered than this is suspicious to say the least.
I am not a betting man that thinks this will end with an election, much less a fair election. If the crowds of J6, the deepening realization that COVID vaccines were deadly and the likely financial system collapse are any indication, one might suspect that patience and tolerance will be in limited supply before Nov 2024 comes around, at least among a sizable portion of the 80+ million MAGA voting community.
When he was building Trump Tower, the whole building is made of concrete. During the building the union for the concrete drivers went on strike. Every day that the drivers were on strike cost Trump millions. So he goes and meets with the mafia boss who controlled the union and told him that if could get his concrete delivered he would give the mafia boss’s girlfriend a FREE top floor apartment and even threw in a built in pool. After the meeting, Trump’s construction site was the only one getting concrete delivered in the entire NY area. This man was always out thinking everyone.
Spot on!!
As you say: Trump is “our apex predator”. He is just what is needed to make the Tea Party movement whole, i.e. a leader. The herd of cats, also known as the Republican Party, need to realize that their only path forward is to unify behind Trump. If the Dimms can unify behind a vegetable, then the right wing of the uni-party should take a deep breath, suck ’em up, and follow (and defend) the only true leader in the room. It’s time for the globalists to decide what side of their bread the butter’s on and bring home their capital and reinvest in the USA. We deplorables need to start calling traitors what they are: TRAITORS, and quit making excuses for them. Make America Great Again – Get on with it, quit screwing around.
There is serious talk that RFKjr is going to run. His strength will be his position on the bio weapon and Fauci. If Trump has the UFO files—he is in for sure.
I don’t think the nation is ready for any more Kennedy’s and for sure the Obama and Clinton wings of the Democrat party don’t want to see a Kennedy resurgence.
I hear your concerns but RGKjr is not executive material, he’s important as far as keeping big pharma on edge. Dark journalist did an episode on that topic last night.
What if Trump named RFKjr as his VP?
Now THAT would be interesting!
(but I don’t understand why I can’t understand what he is saying – worse than Henry Kissinger)
I wish that John F. Kennedy, Jr. had been able to run for the US Senate for New York. Before his untimely death, I was thinking that if he ran for the Senate, although a lifelong Republican, I would have moved to New York just so I could vote for him (it was not feasible, but it was the feeling of enthusiasm for him and nostalgia, I guess – and “getting back at” whoever it was that took his father away from us).
I think RFK, Jr. is great in his work re the vaccination-autism connection and all that he is doing but I cannot understand what in the heck he is saying.
fwiw-I heard that JFK Jr was planning on running for that Senate seat. Some thing he was taken out because that was promised to Hillary (by the ruling class who had plans for her). Anyway, the documentary below is very good- it looks at all the news footage and how the story got changed, and some suspicious anomalies.
Also, on RFK Jr. IMO, I think it would be great for him to just start a movement on the left (Make America Free Again) that wakes them up to the tyranny–gets them onboard with saying NO to digital ID and CBDCs. That would help us as a nation to get the left at least on board with standing against the Great Reset. (I just think that campaigning is also an opportunity to teach people what’s going on–just like Dr. Ron Paul did when he campaigned, warning about the Federal Reserve. People learned about the corrupt financial system and we had lots of End the Fed rallies.
Gov. DeStunnedface isn’t going to steal any more of my joy today. I am going out to enjoy what is left of Old Florida before Jerky lets it be paved into strip mall hell to please his Globalist Overlords.
https://www.bitchute.com/video/31GJZX4IIEG5/
People remember.
Hey Governor. Time to rethink this. Resign to run is going to give you fits. And you ain’t going to win anyway. Give the money back. You’re not going to need it. Put yourself 100% behind making America great again for the next 6 years. We could use your talents. For Christ’s sake, you’re 44 years old. You’ll be 50 in 2028. And if you do a nice job for the next 6 years, you won’t need an election. You’ll be coronated. And you’ll be president of a country that is wealthy and strong again. Forget about the shortcuts. Earn it.
A couple of years back I was considering relocating to Florida.
Now I don’t see a future for him with the MAGA base. DeSantis can’t hide his past globalist behavior in Congress. He voted for TPP and he voted for fast track authority for Obama to push it thru.
In recent months he took Griffin’s $10 million knowing Griffin is openly admitting the strings attached include in ending the populist movement (MAGA). DeSantis signed up to be the MAGA killer. On any one issue he will flip or flop according to the orders of his donor masters, and he will do what he can to end MAGA for Ken Griffin et al.
There’s just no fixing that. He’s the annointed MAGA-killer that fell off his horse.
It’s a shame. He could have been Trump’s heir, but he’s totally blown it.
He is doing all that for a mere pittance . . . $10 million?
10 million is not a pittance if you don’t have 10 million
That’s just his signing bonus.
Ron DeSoros almost lost to Andrew Gilema a crack meth head Haitian who was found knocked the f out in a seedy back door alley motel with fecces on his lips and a crack pipe in his crack, along with a male prostitute who had bloody knockles and poop on his stick , how does DeSoros reconcile that .
TMI
There should be a never Desantis movement. They are trying to sell him as Trump insult comic with no real substance. He says “woke” every third sentence and they think that alone will be enough for people to buy him as America first. Ron Desantis is the Olive Garden and its not going out for Italian.
They’re utterly confused by Trump’s style, and they can’t see that it’s Trump’s substance they’d have to copy.
Absolutely spot on!
Perfect!
They are trying to reverse-engineer Trump and it isn’t working.
Great comment!
I think DeStablishment wants to be in the basement for as long as possible, and not just for the conundrum that exist between his being governor and announcing himself as a candidate. Hidden out of view and scrutiny, he’ll be able to hide his real support numbers better. Donor dollars won’t necessarily equate to vote numbers in a primary, like it obviously can (and did) in the General – people were paid. The basement approach also gives the swamp longer to criminalize Trump on something, so once the swamp were successful, then Ron could emerge as if he were clueless. I have no question that trump will beat him handily in a fair primary. A fair primary is what I’m worried about though.
I am STUNNED by RdS’s stupidity!
I am stunned that he doesn’t see how stupid he looks now.
I’ve said for probably a year and a half that DeSantis can’t be dumb enough to run against Trump. I was wrong. Hubris and powerful people speaking sweat nothings in a politician’s ear will do that.
Sinking ship Grifter Girl is doubling down attacking MAGA. She and the other grifters are upset that those who grifted off of DeceptiRon and trashed PDJT and MAGA are not welcome back.
How has Christopher Rufo not figured it out yet that by him taking that job from Gov. DeSantis in Florida that his, Mr. Rufo’s, voice has effectively been sidelined?
The moment he starts speaking out like he has done over the past few years he will be attacked by some smart lawfare attorneys for ethical violations now that he is on the Florida education dept’s Board of Trustees.
A lot of smart people took the $$.
Many that are strong in cultural issues like Rufo mistakenly thought cultural issues were the most important/only issues voters care about.
That’s a complete misunderstanding of want MAGA is about.
Bummer for them.
Let Rufo do what he’s doing. He found a lane nobody else was busting up. Great guy by all accounts. And props to my governor for putting him where he is now. Let’s see how he does
So who would you rather have? Randy Weingarten?
I for one am happy to hear about this! It makes sense!
Sheesh.
I don’t know whether entirely true or not, but interesting segment on Infowars hosted by lawyer, Robert Barnes, in which he talked about the Deep State with regard to RDS running in 2024, and also about Deep State grooming RDS for public office over a long period of time. I wonder just how many are waiting in the wings for public office who have been groomed by the Deep State? It’s an unsettling question.
(I hope I get the link embedded correctly.)

You’ve got your finger on something. I read a piece somewhere 10 or 15 years ago, a reporter followed along with Harold Ford Jr as he wandered around Manhattan from restaurant to restaurant. He was being paid a million and a half dollars a year by one of the big Banks to do nothing. Maybe an occasional appearance on CNN or MSNBC to stay relevant and in the public eye, but it sure sounded farm team to me
There’s a whole bunch of them; look at those being groomed for positions of power and control beginning with the pre-college education places such as Philips Exeter Academy, most of who then go to Yale and Harvard, often going to both, then get a few years in the military, some as attorneys, others seemingly easily rising with promotions, all to get at least one rotation – anything to enhance their resumes.
That is exactly the kind of thing Robert Barnes outlines happened with RDS.
fwiw- they pick these people early on–a key place for recruiting political puppets is in the secret societies at the elite universities–Those people end up being made men, put into key positions because they are not working for the American people, but have promised allegiance to the ruling elite. Antony Sutton has written about this in his book Americas Secret Establishment. His book focuses on Skull and Bones out of Yale (GHWBush, GWBush, Kerry, Mnuchin, etc.). The basic idea applies to other secret societies at elite universities. I’m pretty sure Rumsfeld was in one at Princeton. And I listened to a video with American Intelligence Media a while back and they said that DeSantis was in a secret society at Yale, but that has since been scrubbed off the internet. I think a key tell-tale sign is if a person’s career is a little too perfect, like they moved up the ladder a bit too fast.
Another tell is never having a real job.
I think Chef Boy RD joined the St. Elmo Society at Yale because S & B wouldn’t have him.
“The problem for the DeSantis
management team is the running for office while pretending not to run.”The problem for the Florida Governor’s management team is the running for office while pretending PRESIDENT TRUMP doesn’t exist, and that the 2020 election wasn’t stolen.
The problem is they are comfortable pretending. They are comfortable being Astroturf. Another problem is DeSantis could not draw a packed house at the Reagan Library.
Here, here!
Per Sundance “Quite simply the America-First agenda puts *their* money at stake, and collectively that amounts to trillions of dollars in multinational globalist financial control.
It really is that simple.
It’s two sides of the same old coin: Money & Control or Control and Money.
And let the serfs eat (crap). Their lives are of no concern to us…only their votes!
The Choice:
Mammon and Moloch or MAGA
My support of DeSantis has also evolved since 2022. One factor is his age. He’s definitely on the young side to be President of the USA, especially with all that our country is facing at this moment, both foreign and domestic fronts. His wisdom and experience are simply not in the same ballpark as Trump’s. I don’t even see the support necessary from FL, and when the State you’ve governed is not behind you, that’s not a good sign. In my opinion, he erred in taking this route. If he had moved into VP position with Trump as his mentor, and then ran in 2028, I think his chances would have been greater. Bottom line, I think he blew it.
Minnesota Republicans were not behind our former governor Tim Pawlenty for President in 2008, thank God… literally.
But he was always going to blow it. He did not ‘make mistakes’. He is a complete and utter fake, and he always would have been a fake, even if his moves had been perfectly orchesitrated.
Thank God they weren’t.
Ronny DRinosantis should have waited his turn and rode the coattails of President Trump to the WH. Evidently he has grossly underestimated President Trumps popularity and is being given horrible advice. DC is full of that.
All very true, and thoughtful common sense , but you can’t expect to keep a (super) ambitious politician in his paddock when they ( the anti-Trumpers ) are whispering in his ear that they can make him a sure winner if he just listens to them and not wait but go for “the Gold” …
WHAT if – The Uniparty Establishment feared the joining of Trump and De Santis – that it would be a formidable combination with Trump as President elected in in 2024 and then De Santis winning in 2028 and then a second term in 2032 – with both of them really creating a blockbuster MAGA comeback for our country, turning around all the damage under Biden, continuing “America First” . . .
so they could not let De Santis go astray on that path and needed to sidetrack him, alienate him from MAGA and actually destroy his chances . . . De Santis doesn’t know it yet . . . and he was vain and foolish enough to fall for it, so would NOT have been a solid “America First” to carry through MAGA in his own Presidency following Trump . . . Mr. Griffin actually did us all a favor.
Compounding young Rons problems is his young wife.
Rather than resembling George’s wife in “Its a Wonderful Life” she instead resembles Lady MacBeth.
Ron, his young family and all Floridians, including President Trump, are in my prayers.
My advice:
Run, Ron. Run.
Run away from the Old Man Potters so you can say, at the end of the day, “Its a Wonderful Life” and you helped make it that way.
I can’t stand DeS. I’m in Florida. We have so many issues that need to be addressed from insurances, infrastructure, education, even massive chemtrails. We need a lot of help. Ron DeSantis should step up to the plate and totally focus on Florida and his role as Governor.
It sounds more and more like Florida would actually be better off without RDS as their Gov…🤔
don’t start me. Fellow Floridian here. The man spends zero time on things that matter to us from insurance issues to energy issues. Everything he does is about his “run” for president. I said it on another thread, at this point I would have preferred Crist. At least he would have paid attention to Floridians. And don’t get me started on his rubber stamp judiciary…
Where are you getting your information? He just signed a bill yesterday cutting out a portion of the lawyer grift on insurance claims.
I don’t see how the people of Florida can stand the Disney corporation after the company’s involvement in telling Florida’s parents that they can’t be speaking up for their kids against the predations of various adults, grooming behavior and even advocating genital mutilation in the name of “transgenderism”.
Now if RDS has backtracked on his stance re Disney, he has to really look like a swampy snake to parents and grandparents in Florida.
What is really so bizarre is THAT is the customer base for Disney (I thought) – such a wholesome place to take the family! NOT, apparently – when the company is telling you that you don’t have any right to stand up for your children or grandchildren’s health and future – and that precious time of innocence where they should just be carefree and learning everything that they can – of an academic nature!

Good for her. Every little girl wants to be a princess. So she broke out the gloves for her husband’s second inauguration. Melania did too. Girls just want to have fun. Let them enjoy the moment
Agree. And the focus on pettiness makes the detractors look petty themselves.
Unless we’re talking about Jill’s fishnet stockings…
I saw a few weeks back where it looked like Casey was wearing what looked like a knock-off version of First Lady Melania Trump’s Inauguration Parade attire.
To that I say, knock it off!
“In fact, this entire RdS 2024 operation simply affirms they really are that stupid. Desperate and stupid.”
I’ve always been under the impression that BIG money was supposed to be “smart money”.
There are BIG money donors involved in all of this.
My question is, why isn’t the big/smart money reading the room and making the necessary changes to reap a return?
They absolutely have the ability to.
Why are they bucking the trend and trying to force something that simply won’t happen?
That sounds more like an idiotic marxist liberal approach rather than a “smart money” perspective.
If the smart money were truly smart, they would be backing single Trump term to “get it over with”.
Setting up RDS for 2028 as the segue from MAGA to a more “refined” neo-GOP or whatever catchy term they think they need.
All the while, fundamentally adjusting their backend businesses that are the very lifeblood of their big/smart money to adapt to this evolving and desired-by-the-masses economic background.
We witnessed the transition from the US being a producer economy to a service economy. It can transition back.
When it does, there are fortunes to be made and grown.
Smart money?
I think Sundance is dead-on accurate: DESPERATE AND STUPID
Excellent questions!
How smart are they, really?
What I keep wondering is why ANY CEO entertaining “Stakeholder Capitalism” over “Market Capitalism” . . . and what is so smart about ESG? To me, it is more like a protection racket percentage that is going somewhere, that has nothing to do with common sense, efficiency, logic, productivity –
ESG is like that character in the Godfather Part 2 that claims he just wants “a little bit to wet my beak”.
Journal Editorial Report trotted out Rove to do clean up on the RDS / Piers Morgan interview. Rove was also able to get in jabs via lies about Stormy, classified docs, lockdowns and losing 2020 election. IMHO, the most effective RDS nickname is DeSoros (h/t Larry Schweikart.)
Never even heard of them.
Doesn’t matter who runs for the pachyderms. The Dems/Unis call the shots now. Election fraud is now institutionalized since SCOTUS wussed out.
From the sidelines, Doomers whine about problems and complain about what Doers are or aren’t doing to solve those problems.
Doers remain focused on doing what they can to help.
God bless the Doers. God have mercy on the Doomers.
And to think they might have locked up the WH for the next 12 years.
That’s an indication of these corrupt ambulance chasers thinking they can outsmart everybody!
They don’t want the White House if it means Trump is in it. Sundance thread on them positioning to lose in 2024.
Stick a fork in that little meatball. He’s done!
DeSantis’ wife is such a wannabe fashion icon.
Women see right through her.
We all met her type in our teens.
If you removed the mirrors from her home, she would have an additional 3 hours a day.
Just the vibe I get whenever she is on stage, which is a lot.
She so thirsty. Even got married as a “princess”.
Yes, that’s my read on her too.
I actually don’t believe the cancer story either–I just don’t trust anything from career politicians. There’s big money behind him and it wouldn’t surprise me if that was more narrative management, to make them both seem like more sympathetic characters. And I have no respect for the medical profession, given the covid psyop, and we’ve already seen that it’s very easy for these politicians to get doctors who will say anything (e.g. that Biden is not senile and is fit to serve, that Hillary was fine despite her having seizures on camera, and that Fetterman was fine to serve despite the stroke).
They should worry about ESG, “Stakeholder Capitalism”.
The Realm is crumbling despite their efforts to salvage. DeSantis is indicative of that. The deep state has no bench. DJT has a bench and a varsity.
Didn’t Desantis fire his entire campaign team the same week the FBI raided Mar a Lago? Desantis will be toast if he tries to push Trump out and it appears he’s not smart enough to get it, sad.
That would be very interesting to know more about –
so what became of THOSE people? Are they floating around, looking for jobs? Or are they swimming towards the Trump campaign, to be moles for RDS and thus the wisdom of not having any RDS people on board?
Chef Boy RD sold out to the WEF and everybody knows it.
Try as they might,
Only the low information live in a fantasy world watch TV daily people buy into it.
Thier viewership is in the toilet so that isn’t very many.
Note: Some of the national donors who bankrolled Bush’s 1998 effort would ultimately become members of the “Pioneer” program that bundled large sums for Bush’s successful 2000 presidential campaign.
It’s important to realize Bush’s connection to the Carlyle Group now and DeSantis’s connection to the same fund-raising group used by Bush. Suggest that this action had been in planning prior to June 2021.

Auerbach, who was promoted to global cohead of TMT in July, is among a team of four TMT bankers that joined UBS from Jefferies in 2015. Chris Montgomery, a managing director who joined alongside Auerbach, is also leaving for SVB.

DeSantis cashes in on rising star status with big-money blitz
By Alex Isenstadt

When Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis addresses a group of well-heeled Republican Party donors on Thursday, he won’t be on home turf like Naples’ “Millionaires’ Row” or in Indian Creek Island’s “Billionaire Bunker” — he’ll be across the country in San Diego, one of the GOP’s few traditional power centers in California.
The appearance is part of an aggressive summertime out-of-state fundraising swing, with DeSantis capitalizing on his rising profile to stuff his reelection coffers and cultivate a national donor network that could power a prospective 2024 presidential bid.
RdS forgot that MAGA put him over the top, and MAGA is anti-donor elite and pro-Trump. So, to think he can defy MAGA and still win is political stupidity; for that alone, he’s disqualified. That he represents the moneyed interests is a big blunder. It’s permanently damaged goods. I think all that also reeks of hubris.
Ron looks like a deer caught in the headlights. Look after Florida Ron and please come up with your own thoughts not those of your donors.
Well, the Florida house did pass the constitutional carry bill a few days ago and it’s headed to the Senate. So, maybe they think that they’ll take some of the edge off some of the Florida voters who are absolutely pissed at this entire presidential aspiration kabuki.
RDS has said all along that he would sign the bill if it was sent to him, and that bill has been circling the LEGISLATIVE DRAIN for more than 2 years. So, WHY NOW? The old story was that we “shouldn’t scare the tourists” (Insert TAMPA ORLANDO AND DISNEY about here–as if they can see a concealed weapon).
I mentioned before here at CTH that there might be baiting going forward with the constitutional carry issue, in which the Mandarins might think that passage will give RDS a bump in the polling near his announcement. That is, the passage might “rub off” on him.
The problem, of course, is that the people that are concerned about the CC issue and want to carry down here already carry…with or without a permit. The permitless are just good at it. They don’t provoke a stop by the FHP or Sheriff, and don’t behave like the ghetto/entitled morons roaming the blue hives. So, maybe it will work with about 10% of the people (conservatives, whatever that is..) who want to be legal without plunking down 140 bucks. That’s not enough to overcome the Trump preference edge (right now).
That CC issue doesn’t even phase the blue hive voters because, well, because they are blue hive people. I’m strictly talking about the geographical people that pulled the election away from naked crack-head Gillum last time. Blue hive asshats were all in on the homocoker.
Ron DeSantis has exposed himself to be nothing more than a McConnell approved sock puppet
and from that, learn your lesson now…. there will be many many many others known and unknown to us coming.. Stand MAGA firm with the one and only original MAGA President and we’ll take this country back
Speaking of which… It’s time to start looking around for a Rubio replacement.
The RINO has no cloths.
I am baffled – RDS has the establishment, the RINO’s, McConnell, Soros, Berkley, and the entire news media chanting his accolades, what could go wrong?
Inauthenticity makes DeSantis unelectable in primaries and a general election for POTUS.
It’s plain to see now that DeFraudulent is the latest Uniparty GOPe, WEF circus elephant/ RINO show with a number of Jackasses thrown in the mix. Let them go ahead and include Nimrada Non Grata, Tim Scott, Youngkin, 30 Dirty Pence, Pompeo, Bolton and maybe even resurrect JEB! for an added clown troupe to the GOPe circus. Vannity and Rove can be the Master of Ceremony and announcer.
The MAGA America First movement with President Donald J.Trump is the Honey Badgers and millions of Wolverines who have had a belly full of the tired re-reruns of the Washington District of Criminals, Davos elites, Sea Island, NY Wall Street, corporate “woke” CEO billionaires scum show.
LOL!
Perhaps Pres. Trump should prepare an America-First candidate for the Gov of Florida, ready to jump in when RdS announces his candidacy.
You just blew my mind!
Gaetz.
Hadn’t thought of that. But I like it
Excellent suggestion!
If Ron resigns his hand picked Lt Governor becomes Governor of Florida.
She is a notorious Never Trumper who has called MAGA Republicans the New KKK.
From what I have read about her, Jeannette Nunez is a real piece of work… even more so than Nikki Freid.
At this point (June 2021), we are less than 6 months away from the date Biden took office. Let that sink in, because it takes time to arrange the following.
DeSantis is addressing a group of well-heeled Republican Party donors and taking is fund-raiser on the road nationally! In the footsteps of another president.
Now remember what Sundance said, “We come from two different wings of the same party“.
HEH!!!
