I had completely forgotten about this, until someone reminded me today. It is worth revisiting.
If you have followed the management and branding efforts of the team around Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, the protestations today by campaign official and registered foreign agent Christina Pushaw are quite bizarre.
The Daily Beast wrote an article [SEE HERE] about how Ms. Pushaw organized an astroturf campaign of support for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, which included the recruitment of several conservative influencers. The substance of the article is generally well known.
In late 2021, early 2022, Ms. Pushaw invited a group of “influencers” to spend time with Governor DeSantis. It’s not a debatable event. Factually, the collective group took gleeful pictures of their first visit on January 6, 2022, and continued to post frequent pictures on their social media of events throughout last year. The group went to the reelection celebration and inauguration of DeSantis earlier this month.
However, for some odd reason, likely more concerned about people realizing the ‘organized‘ nature of the creation, in a bizarre turn of events, Ms. Christina Pushaw is now denying she ever organized the assembly and stating that without any documentary evidence, saying she organized the group is just a conspiracy theory. [Tweet Link]
If Ms. Pushaw is to be believed, the random group of Florida conservative “influencers” just happened to show up at the Governor’s office on January 6, 2022, without any invitation, organization or coordination on her part.
Even lacking the invitation details, hanging your defense on the absence of a paper trail under these circumstances seems like a very odd position to take.
Why does the DeSantis team fear sunlight on the origin of how this outreach and subsequent meetings took place? Very odd.
I sincerely doubt this group just randomly showed up at Ron DeSantis’ office, on January 6, 2022, without an invitation or organizing.
The same group then continued meeting throughout the year….
.
Nothing about their recruitment, continued meet-ups and aggressive promotion of Ron DeSantis for the GOP nomination in 2024, would be that interesting or even noteworthy if Ms. Christina Pushaw didn’t paint them all into a box by denying she ever organized their first assembly.
And there’s the rub… Why is Christina Pushaw denying that she first organized them on behalf of the political aspirations of her boss, Ron DeSantis?
The only logical reason to make such an outlandish and transparently false claim, is if that original assembly was intended as seed material to use the “influencers” for another purpose, like a 2024 presidential bid. Yet, Ron DeSantis hasn’t announced a 2024 presidential bid…. so that issue is a nonstarter, unless that announcement is eventually going to come forth.
If Ron DeSantis is going to announce his candidacy for the GOP nomination, then suddenly all these background moves look like proactive steps on behalf of the management team. The January 6, 2022 meeting would then infer the presidential aspirations as far back as December 2021.
In combination with the $200+ million in Wall Street money assembled by DeSantis, perhaps that 2024 plan is the risk necessitating the absurd denial.
[Daily Beast Article Here]
.
They all just randomly showed up to hang out with DeSantis. Yep, that’s the story and Pushaw is sticking to it.
For those interested, central planning and organization is the difference between “organic support” and “astroturf.”
Slava Ukraine!
Amazing is it not, they all lie and we allow it.
If his plan germinated in December ‘21, how much is he going to put into Gov and running for POTUS.
If he enters Primary that is 18 months of not Governing. And another election for Governor. Congratulations Floridians.
DeSantis doesn’t have a plan. The Globalists have/had a plan for him. He has been groomed and supported in the mission to sucker Conservatives away from Trump. But they owned him since his Yale days. Still drawing those pieces together…what would have been his mission had not there been a Trump on the scene?
There are $Trillion$ at stake…
Christina Pushaw reeks of CIA.
Remember when Hillary was fired by her law firm for removing records from to the National Archives to prevent Nixon from having a lawyer in his impeachment? As she was carrying her cardboard box of personal items out the door she shouted out over her shoulder: “I will be back. I just met a man in Arkansas who will soon be president.”
I thought she was fired by Jaworski from the Watergate Senate Investigation or from the Special Prosecutor office.
Yes, it was Jaworski’s law office that fired her. After she removed the documents she said in a meeting that the National Archives have no evidence that a Supreme Court Justice had used a lawyer in front of Congress. Everyone in the room knew what she had done and the meeting was immediately adjourned. They were afraid of losing their law licenses. Hillary was fired three days later.
She was.
Buncha Carpetbagger johnny come latelys that don’t know or care about Florida or Floridians. Pfffft-shaw looks crazier than a sh!thouse rat. She needs to go back to pukebrain and win some hearts and minds, the way she did before, passing out chilled vodka shots in her undies.
I tho’t she looks bat-shipped crazy too!!!!!!
Even though both Rubin and Cardillo live there, they are New Yorkers.
Rubin is from California.
Nope.New Yorker who moved to LA. You obviously have not done your homework.
Anymore, you can literally SEE the evil in the faces of the Luciferians. Pence, Pushaw, Pelosi, et. al.
And Buck Sexton is in every picture….NOW I must question WHY and WHAT he’s involved in here, and my trust in him….
He was a Never Trumper. Not surprising to me at all.
Like that McMuffin guy.
Buck was also a former CIA guy, recruited from the campus of Amherst College
Buck Sexton has been repeating the claim (over and over) how Biden got 81 million votes against Trump and now it becomes clear he has TDS. Goodby Buck.
it’s been a terrible to have buck sexton sitting in a time slot show that I once really admired with the great Rush.
The few times I listened to his show, it was like listening to nonsense and drivel. No real hard hitting breaking investigative work. Just a echo chamber with mildly tuned conversative texture.
it’s the same with Ben Shapiro. While I agree with some of his opinions, overall, it’s very obvious his true feeling about institutional conservative party power.
That alone makes me distance my time away from listening to the bullcorn.
God Bless America
Rush , as I recall, was very pro Bush/Cheney and never questioned the Iraq war. Also, Rush did not inform his listeners about precinct committee positions and how we could get involved in that significant way to reform the RINO party.
Rush, was certainly a controlled operation guy. He was just given a longer leash then most “Conservative Talk Show hosts.” If they wanted to keep the pretense of Rush’s show being legit non-DS, then they should have given the prime hour over to Mark Steyn, another “long-leash Conservative.” People like Ben Shapiro are proof they don’t even have to try, as he has Intel agency written all over him. Mark and Rush were/are actually popular, Ben…not so much.
is that Benny Johnston? Lisa Booth after her nose job.
Well he was definitely CIA.
Never-Trumper Katie Pavlich (she penned the article “Against Trump” in National Review in 2016) hosted the Dan Bongino show Saturday night on Fox News and she just happened to have “loud mouth” TX Rep. Chip Roy who was brought on to talk about the Trump indictment but also coyly slipped in that though he was “America First” he is supporting Meatball Ron in 2024. Curious because Meatball hasn’t announced yet. Katy had a big smile on her face. Is Chip becoming the new Dan Crenshaw? Someone should tell Chip that there is no America First without Trump.
Roy has been clearly compromised by the Ukraine Bill Washing Laundromat.
This kind of thing is why I no longer watch Fox News, aside from catching Tucker from time to time. I just can’t allow myself to support people who don’t support me.
Tucker was compromised on his recent J6 reporting and was told to back off by Ryan and the Murdochs, in my opinion. Ever since he seems a little emasculated.
He has also been warned by either Mgt. or the pollsters to
put a happy face on his reporting.
Why does he keep apologizing for the fear/Debbie-downer tone.
I am just looking for the unvarnished truth.
I don’t do cable TV; but I do subscribe to VladTepes (Toronto-based blogger and dependable preserver of the West) who daily posts TC’s program, in whole or in part.
Just so you know: TC fans can access his programming from a sympathetic source and thereby avoid all together the tainted Faux news.
That is how I watch TC. I have no cable. Won’t pay.
Used to watch Fox Business.
Stuart Varney absolutely *hates* Trump –or…
Stuart Varney is absolutely *obedient* to the author
of some office memorandum.
Either way, he is spewing vinegar almost as often as Joy Behar.
Pathetic.
Really? He must have changed for the $$$
i never listen to any news person with a English accent . What the hell is he here for .
Pavlich called us “low information voters” in 2016 in this youtube video.
I used to read Townhall daily…Used to!
Their entire cast is now rather revolting in their pitiful partisan punditry.
“Low information voters”? Damn…Just damn!
Just so you know, LTG, you do yourself no favors with Treepers of Italian descent using the patently offensive term “Meatball” when referring to DeSantis. I would hope that by now, we conservatives, of all people, after having been accused of every form of -ism imaginable, would be better than that.
WOW, I thought Conservatives had thicker skin.
There’s a whole lot more to ‘MeatBall’ than the misguided protest that it is offensive to Italians. It has been used effectively to compliment someone when no other nickname does so that sticks; as in “beatin’ up that beat … that’s a member of team meatball.”
Americans in WW2 used the term referring to Japanese flag vehicles and airplanes … “There’s Meatballs in the air”.
What if you call someone “that meatball jumped like 2 inches off the ground” would that be offensive to Italians?
It seems that more than not, people do understand what it means when referring to that kind of people who never get the joke when it’s told. And they also usually lack common sense.
Is it offensive when someone who is especially prone to deception and theft, over-ate, grew manboobs, went broke, then doctored bills to steal money from his own housemates is called even by meatball makers (“What a meatball!!”) ???
So much for “every form of -ism imaginable” .. life can be shortened in the blink of an eye. Frozen meatballs are guaranteed to last past a blink.
The supreme art to nicknames is to get them effectively frozen in time. They stick. People have short memories. Would “Ron da meat bawl” qualify as offensive to Italian-Americans?
In all fairness though, Trump has been a strong supporter of Italian Americans. From protecting Columbus Day and Columbus monuments to honoring servicemembers of Italian descent in the US Military, Trump has demonstrated his understanding of the Italian American community’s contributions to the United States.
This isn’t about conservative or liberal, left or right, Democrats or Republican. The focus gets lost with the much-ado-about-nothing when the (two-tiered justice system reaches) from the disparate treatment of presidential candidates to the Justice Department’s decision to normalize surprise raids on the homes of pro-life pastors while downplaying acts of domestic terrorism against pregnancy clinics is lost. The country’s descent “into one ruled by men, instead of one ruled by laws that apply to everyone, from the most powerful and wealthy to most poverty-stricken and oppressed.
Meatballs are not an Italian-exclusive/invention dish. It exists in many countries and with variations according to even the region in the same country.
On the other hand there are many more important issues to deal in our culture than to nurture the tender sensibilities of the prudish RdS supporters lurking under the guise of MAGA on this site.
I wonder if the Swedes are also offended?
I am Swedish. Hell no we aren’t. And the Swedish Chef on the Muppet Show made us laugh out loud.
ha ha ha .. love this
Same here my family is Swedish and proud . i also like that my kids are blue eyed blondes .
Get over it.
At the present time I think there are few Italians or others who would think the word “Meatball” has any derogatory meaning at all. I think calling DeSantis “Meatball” would make most people wonder if he was advertising a new product.
Humm, What about the Sweeds…Swedish MEATBALLS.
Us Asians have our own foodballs, fish, pork, shrimp and crab. All made (only) with fresh ingredients – not snobbish, just fact that taste always unbeatable when homemade with no canned or frozen ingredients; let alone make them at home to freeze them.
Topping the list however, are those Swedish meatballs we often not too successfully replicate. Hence any visit, and even specifically to the Ikea’s stores just to the freezers – us, making beeline haste first priority in case there aren’t left. Life is good.
Is it offensive to burros, if we call him a “dumb-ass”?
“When you are getting flack…You are over the target”?
shut up ya WOP
The GOP Globalist Establishment has chosen Ron.
if Buck Sexton is involved, you know there’s money floating around somewhere. he is always for sale to the highest bidder. Just ask MSNBC.
Clay Travis and Buck Sexton are Meatball Ron supporters. Period.
And their show is pretty bad…almost zero preparation, just off-the-cuff comments and whaling on democrats. Zero originality, zero insight, nothing at all like Rush.
One exception. When Buck (wimpy name BTW) was on vacation a month or so ago, Clay had some really outstanding monologues/analyses/commentary. Have heard nothing like it since.
I think Clay has some sincerity. Buck is aphony. Both are in it for the money though….and it shows.
That’s what you get with a sports guy and a spook. No content.
my local station just dumped them and switched the slot to Bongino . All due to the listeners calling the station with complaints .
Ol’ JEB seems uneasy, he tweeted this out.
Jeb Bush on Twitter: “Bragg’s predecessor didn’t take up the case. The Justice Department didn’t take up the case. Bragg first said he would not take up the case. This is very political, not a matter of justice. In this case, let the jury be the voters.” / Twitter
For Jeb it is all show..!!!…Makes him sound reasonable..He hates Trump..
The entire Bush family hates Trump. The entire GOPe hate’s Trump. That much is obvious. How else could they sit back and allow him to be taken out of office via voter fraud and them claim it never happened, much less not lift a finger to fix it? I will never support any of these people again, and that now includes Ron DeSantis. At this point, even if he bows out and waits until 2028 to run, I don’t think I could vote for him even then.
The fact that the bush family are buddies with the Clinton’s and Obama’s make me distrust and despise them now.
“…let the jury be the voters”
Jebbie knows that if the case is heard in Manhattan, Trump will instantly lose.
What a phony!
Tim Scott said “Let it play out” when the FBLie illegally raided MAL.
That’s why he and JEB! are polling in single digits!
Wow..one of them looked like Elon Musk..just a fluke..hmmm..does look like baby face Musk.
Looked and looked…cannot see what you are saying. Which one you referring to?
I had never heard of Anthony Fauci back in early 2020. Then Sundance posted the fawning emails from Fauci to Hillary and I knew immediately he was not to be believed. Enabled me to weather the “Pandemic” with the knowledge that everything “they” told us was a lie. NO vax. No masks… Now this Pushaw character shows up with the pics from Ukraine and pics of her French kissing Zelenskyy and my BS meter starts pinging and the red flags start flapping in the breeze.
Fauci did the same thing with HIV AIDS in the 1980’s as with covid. He cost the gay community many lives and those, who are still alive, never forgave him for that. Trump never should have given him a seat at the table in the White House. Big mistake!
Yet the gay community are leftwing nuts who were all on board with his Covid lies.
Not all of us!
See above for reason why. Old habits, training, hatreds stay ingrained.
I have some gay acquaintances that will never vote Republican because of:
want kids, but it’s the deal breaker for them on voting.
Insane.
bet they all have dick breath .
They knew AZT was deadly toxic and foisted it on the unsuspecting Gays with impunity or accountability.
The Gnome will eventually go down in history, as a mass-murderer like Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot!
They were all revered by their duped or corrupt supporters?
He upped the deaths through mis treatment at the source, wrong drugs.
Made the numbers inflate, the threat greater.
Then, he blamed the deaths on Reagan and the Republicans being too slow and
anti gay.
The entirety managed to convince a sizeable portion of the gay
population that Republicans, particularly Reagan were evil and
wanted them dead.
The big boys watched, knew. The big boys were uniparty, even
then. So the longest behind the scenes big boys knew that Fauci
could “help” them in their endeavour to smear the opposition.
Go through the ranks for both parties in Washington. See who
has been around in office since 1984. Good chance that some of
them watched what happened back then. Also a good chance that
many of the “R”s also knew precisely how Fauci purposely caused
a misdiagnosis.
These same “R”s were comfortable with it. Because they hated
Reagan before they hated Trump.
For those interested, central planning and organization is the difference between “organic support” and “astro turf”.
Sorry but not following the logic here. Every meeting to be held at a given time and place requires planning and organization. Organic support requires planning and organization too.
Simple. Organic support = genuine supporters show up on their own volition (i.e. Trump rally. Announce place and time and thousands show up with screening for safety purposes only.) Astro turf = fake supporters are paid to show up (i.e. Ron media event. Participants are pre screened with opposition media and supporters banned from premises.)
why do karl and jeb always hide.
you’d think they think they’re scumbag bill kristol.
I can’t listen to Clay and Buck anymore, with all their Desantis cheerleading. They aren’t qualified to shine Rush’s shoes!
texas to the rescue.
Buck is a complete fraud…Thanks for the story Sundance…It confirms my feelings on the issue…
For the last 2 or 3 weeks…Buck and clay have been saying…”Biden wants to run against Trump” “Biden feels if he is against Trump its a sure win…he does not want to run against any other republican” “Trump will not win the women of the suburbs”
“If this was the superbowl who would the coach put in as quarterback”
And mind you this is before the primaries….Hey Buck and Clay…Would you not measure the country’s feelings with the amount of people that come out to vote in the Primaries before you make such ridiculous statements?…unless you are pulling for ole Ron at Trumps expense?
Fox and Fox News anchors have all been saying
the same thing, “Biden wants to run against Trump”.
This sounds like it is the newly-polled,
Board of Directors-approved,
line of b.s.
Rush did not select his impersonators.
They just showed up and grabbed the mic and you listen to the topic at hand.
Not the talk show it was to say the least.
They should have made bongino the heir apparent. He is on at the same time but not for the same media group.
They were just celebrating the anniversary of “Insurrection Day”. Move along…
That girl is in the wrong company. Ronny boy, stay away from them.
“Why does the DeSantis team fear sunlight on the origin of how this outreach and subsequent meetings took place? ”
Because it exposes what a con man DeSantis really is by making it absurdly clear he never had any intention of serving out his term as governor.
Still NOT voting for the meatball.
That is why Bannon is fixing to hammer them and Pushaw when or if ever Desantis declares for this race!!! Pushaw is the type that ran ZHi.Leary Clinton’s 2016 campaign and we all know how that turned out!!! Plus a couple of these people, like Tyrmand are now TOXIC because of recent events!!! 😑
HER> team is good at throwing HER> in the van, like a sack-of-potatoes?
THAT is not easy?
Although he is in the first (early 2022) picture, I’m hopeful to see that Benny Johnson isn’t in the rest of the pix. (Gosh, hope he wasn’t taking them, ha). I like Benny and appreciate his attention to East Palestine.
Also, what’s the deal with the lady in the 4th pic showing SO much leg in a picture for a potential candidate? Nothing against the dress, just showing the leg like that for that pic. Am I an old fuddy duddy?
Yes you are.
Certainly a Biden – DeSantis “ticket” is their dream matchup..
Either way, they couldn’t lose!
Knowing already the world is no friend to the people of God in fact it’s the polar opposite they are by far the enemy.
I’ve come to see that politics is a breeding ground for corruption.
Who is the person that escape that toxic environment unscathed.
“In the year 2023 there’s really no excuse for ordinary Americans to believe any politician is on their side in either major party. The very best of them will only once in a while do the bare-minimum not-evil thing. Don’t make heroes of these scumbags. They’re not your friends.
Don’t celebrate on those rare occasions when one of them does the bare-minimum not-evil thing. Don’t “give them credit”. Don’t think it proves anything about who they are as people. All it means is a shitty empire manager did one bare-minimum not-evil thing. They’re still trash. Believing anyone in either mainstream party is your friend is believing that institutions which are explicitly designed to promote the interests of oligarchy and empire are going to help ordinary people like you. It’s like believing you can put out a fire with enough gasoline.

The government is not your friend nor your savior.
That pic of Zelensky and Pushaw reminds me of a scene in ‘Clerks.’
Rush Limbaugh is turning over in his grave Buck Sexton traitor.
“Once CIA, always CIA.” Never forget that.
Precedents have been set Trump as the first Now revenge time is near if Republican’s have any balls left?
Tax Returns
indictments of former Presidents..
Spying on campaign’s impeachments silent coups Intel agencies weaponized…against sitting president. a lot of first ..Trump set the trap will McCarthy act? Or is he chicken shit…Trump is now clearing the board who are my true enemies who is loyal? Checkmate.
Precedents have been set Trump as the first Now revenge time is near if Republican’s have any balls left?
Precedents have been set Trump as the first Now revenge time is near if Republican’s have any balls left?
who is loyal? Checkmate.
Ron is great at fighting woke activism. We need someone to fight against such idiocy.
But… is he tough enough to take on all the forces determined to destroy America?
Can he survive the constant media and legal attacks gathered agains Trump? Does he understand the business aspects of world control and financial control threatened by the Mob?
What we need, more than ever, in today’s world is a crude, sometimes barbaric leader that has the biggest spheroid appendages ever seen in politics?
I respect Ron and all he has accomplished… he is a hero. But he is no Trump!
Ron got played by Disney…But good!
Where are these “accomplishments” you speak of?
Yeah, he helped rebuild the road after the hurricane?
That’s his job…Not doing it is called “failure”!
The guys driving the loaders and dump trucks are the ones who rebuilt it!
Dave Reiboi is the bald muscle man, he is pretty defensive when called out on Twitter…..:)
It also seems that lesser know influencers like Pedro Gonzalez and Bill Mitchell have been recruited to promote DeSantis. About 90% of their tweets on a daily basis are anti-Trump and Pro-DeSantis and I’ve become more than a little suspicious of both. That this tweetstorm is occurring right around the time DeSantis is expected to announce a run and campaign season starts around Memorial Day is not a coincidence.
Pedro Gonzalez has really discredited himself. He started his routine as if he were above the fray, but disparaging DJT, then he went into TDS overdrive.
Anybody that has an individual that has been so close to the upper echelons of power in Ukraine in their orbit, should be no where near the presidency of this country.
The land of the lies and the home of the cheaters with censorship and justice for the few.
“Ron DeSantis’ Secret Twitter Army of Far-Right Influencers”
A dive into DeSantis’ social media influencer operation (granted from leftie Daily Beast). The article discusses the Jan 6 2022 photo op and influencer reception. Also identifies some of the key people on the DeSantis influencer team.
According to the article, bot farms are believed to be in play as part of payment” to influencers to boost their follower reach. Three republicans who had been approached to join the influencer team said (anonymously) that there had been promises of payments for tweets, but they admitted they didn’t know the specifics of how the payments would work as they had turned down the invite to join the DeSantis social media team.
Who paid for the Jan 6, 2022 influencer reception?
“The DeSantis campaign would not say who paid for the influencer reception on the night of Jan. 6, 2022. Florida campaign finance records only show one expense under that date, over $42,000, to an unrelated vendor for digital fundraising services going back to the reelection campaign.”
Regarding the quality of his social media influencers, many are rated mid to low level players.
“They’re not sending their best, OK?” one of the aspiring influencers approached by the DeSantis team told The Daily Beast. “They all live in Miami. They hang out with Christina daily. She feeds them all the narratives and the talking points, and that’s basically her role… trying to control the narrative on social media.”
(side note: Buck lives in NYC altho he travels to Florida a lot.)
“If this is his strategy,” the Republican strategist said, “and these are his close friends, he is going to get toasted if he runs for president. He will be Jeb 2.0.”

Thanks for reminding us that DeSantis is an establishment shill.
I think that 1/3 of the ~75 million voters who voted for President Trump in 2020 will not support the GOP candidate if it’s not President Trump.
I certainly will not vote for anyone else.
People just never learn; it’s the cover up that causes the most trouble and turns people off.
f she’d just said, yeah we did it and we shouldn’t have tried to make it look organic. But oh well he’s a good guy and a great governor. We’ll do better next time and be transparent.
Now she/him looks sleazy and have something to hide. It’s called conscientiousness of guilt. But what’s she got to be guilty of? perhaps knowing that they’re not supposed to run while governor? See if he’d tried to get it repealed quietly and then started taking the political temperature most people would be bothered.
Buck Sexton, former CIA officer.
Newsmax.
Real news for real people.
Really liked what some of these folks had to say at one time. Now several more are crossed off my list and added to the political prostitution list.
The double damn hell with any faux freedom-loving “conservative” who turns their back on Thee-One-Person who stood up for American freedom.
There is no substitute— period.
After the persecution of J6, a mere meme maker, General Flynn, etc.—MAGA means Donald Trump.
We are not abandoning him now!🇺🇸💕🇺🇸
Just listened to a tad of Alex Jones. Owen was denigrating Trump because he did not drain the Deep State while in office. How did that work out for JFK?
Jones and company are getting on my nerves.
A president— especially one dodging all the Lawfare and impeachment crap — cannot single-handedly just shut down the FBI, CIA, backstabbing generals, useless agencies etc. overnight.
He certainly is better equipped, forewarned, and in a better position to take them on now. He has been bloodied in battle. If the Deep State wanted to knee cap him last time around— they certainly have a stronger motive now. I want him elected a third time and allowed to complete the mission. I think they will totally destroy the country and/or eliminate him, first. Hope God is listening and pray He intercedes both for Trump and our nation.💕🇺🇸🙏
In the previous Yahoo News/YouGov survey, which was conducted less than two weeks ago, Trump (47%) led DeSantis (39%) by eight percentage points in a head-to-head matchup among registered voters who are Republicans or Republican-leaning independents. As recently as February, it was DeSantis who was narrowly ahead of Trump, 45% to 41%.
But the new, post-indictment poll suddenly finds Trump lapping DeSantis by 26 percentage points — 57% to 31% — in a one-on-one contest. The former president even attracts majority support (52%, up from 44% previously) when pitted against a wider, 10-candidate field of declared and potential GOP challengers, while DeSantis plummets to 21% (down from 28%).
No one else cracks double digits.
The group picture reminds me of the FIB guys photoshopped everywhere there is a Trump rally.
These shallow “influencers”, made omnipresent by 24/7 cable news and the internet, make me nostalgic for the 70s. Then, you had five or six syndicated columnists that could be considered conservative. There were another couple writing for the WSJ. There were some local and regional columnists who were conservative. There was one biweekly conservative magazine and several monthlys. You didn’t have these “influencers”, who spontaneously generate, throwing out opinions by the bushel with little reflection.
The word “Dude” says it all. Juvenile.
Buck Sexton was once with Glenn Beck, when Beck blurted out that Trump should be ki!!ed. He is CIA, and those people NEVER stop being CIA, regardless of wherever else they go or shat they do. I’ve never forgiven Beck, and I NEVER stop mistrusting anything CIA.
