What comes next in the management of Ron DeSantis is predictable. I know these guys. This is what I call the Alex Castellanos shift [use site search].
After failure to launch on the original strategy, team DeSantis organized a crisis intervention last Sunday. What comes next is entirely predictable. The people managing Ron DeSantis will now shift to the Alex Castellanos approach. Christine Pushaw and her bitter hate approach will be distanced, and she’s told to get quiet. The tone of the influencers will be told to soften immediately and follow the candidate.
Here comes the BIG HUG!
The managers will likely use the pre-planned CNN interview with Jake Tapper as the launch vehicle to shift Ron DeSantis into the mode where he praises Donald Trump (the hug). You might even hear phrases like “without him, I wouldn’t be governor,” and “look, what they did to President Trump is unfair and unwarranted.”
The shift will be strategic and intended to portray a softer, more deliberate and professionally demure Ron DeSantis sympathetically. Neutering the confliction between himself and the campaign target, Donald Trump. DeSantis will be trained to speak warmly, perhaps even effusively about President Trump, while reinforcing his agreement and opposition to the unfair DC attacks against the former President and frontrunner.
DeSantis will affirm the wrongful nature of the current DOJ targeting. Then, after affirming the wrongful nature of the Deep State effort to attack Trump, DeSantis will then tack to a position of saying ‘but here’s the deal.’ ‘While Trump was unfairly attacked by all of the DC mechanisms that are corrupt and wrong, and there were dozens of examples of that hatred we could rightly discuss, I’m the guy who can hold them accountable and target the enemies who attacked him.’
In this approach Ron DeSantis positions himself as the professional, strategic ‘white knight‘, who will combat the deep state machinery and deliver retribution because he is not emotionally attached to it. He’s the deep strategist who will defeat the Deep State with smarter maneuvers, less words, a sharper approach and better qualified people.
Factually, if he ever wanted a chance, this is how the DeSantis campaign should have started. However, their authentic campaign approach – the approach they believe in – didn’t work. Now the Brutus approach as outlined by Alex Castellanos comes out, “snuggle up real close and wait to shiv him in the ribs.”
Watch, you’ll see it.
An approach that gently shifts away from antagonism and combat into an approach that contains praise, even effusive praise, as a strategic move.
It won’t be subtle, it will be obvious to those looking for it, but it will be different. The problem they have is the same problem with the original launch, the shift is fake, inauthentic and transparently purposeful.
Watch and you will see the Big Hug play roll out….
I saw part of this “Big Hug” strategy in meatball’s Tuck -N-Roll ‘softball’ interview. Meatball stole phrases that were coined by President Trump and co-opted our President’s MAGA policies as if they were his own.
Tuck-n-roll could have easily challenged the meatball with followup questions, but he didn’t.
Questions such as, “The vast majority of your campaign contributions come from Big Donor globalists, donors like A,B & C. How would YOU then be free to carry out MAGA policies AGAINST their interests?”
“Are you telling your donors they’re backing the wrong horse? They can’t be that stupid, funding a candidate who works against their interests. Are they telling you to LIE to the American people? This more likely IS the case.”
“Your donors don’t want peace with Russia. Your donors are comprised of the neocons who would profit from WWIII. Blood money.”
“The American people are tired of sending their children to die in neocon wars. The American people want PEACE and PROSPERITY.”
“President Trump is a billionaire in his *own* right. He is not beholden to the globalist donors who have funded your candidacy, presumably to stop HIM. Trump’s candidacy AND policies are aligned with and supported by the American people.”
“You can say what you will but at least Trump is a straight shooter. He doesn’t lie to HIS donors: The American people.”
“President Trump accomplished many MAGA policies despite their vicious attacks. HE renegotiated strong trade deals with China and NAFTA, to name a few. YOU, on the other hand, signed off on TPP with the globalists, which would end our economic sovereignty. Had that TPP bill YOU signed passed Congress, the USA would have signed away our ability to make our own economic policies and decisions. WHY did you sign the TPP?”
C’mon, Tuck Tuck. I’m not a “journalist” but I know what questions a true journalist would ask! At least one who is *not* beholden to the same global cabal as the meatball.
After the Target swimsuits for trans kids, I can’t get that poison out of my head. Please avoid “Tuck-n-roll” for a while.
🤣🤣🤣 Dude’s hugging is
“Yucky” as well.🤣🤣🤣
Will you state publically, that the 2020 election was stolen, Joe was installed and PDJT is the rightful POTUS?
No, he won’t of coarse.
And even if he did, that would in no way justify voting for HIM, instead of PDJT.
What RDS is for the GOPe,
and Elon is for Big Tech,
TC is for MSM (Fox).
Very excellent questions!
Meatball is a man child, he copies, he pretends, he wears elevator cowboy boots.
Apparently he copies mannerisms and quotes from admirable alpha males i.e., Trump and most recently from Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd.
While talking with Tucker he borrowed the good Sheriff’s quote “shoot them stone cold dead” then he giggled like the “child” that he is.
Who is Tuck and Roll?
Tucker Carlson.
My own opinion is more positive and hopeful but likely wrong.
I agree with you Judith.
Likely Tucker left Fox because no one watches it. It makes us think he’s a rebel (as Fox still pays his contract).
Now he looks real tough beating up on straw men like Nikki, Pence, Christy, Scott, etc.
We all cheer as he does it, but likely in the end, he will also give Trump The Hug.
I don’t think Tucker is dialed in enough to even know to ask those kinds of questions.
Um, perhaps because she (now) wants to remain neutral? It doesn’t take a genius to figure this out.

They are ideological CULTISTS of socialism and thinking they will be on top.
They always choose their ideological side and they always attack and terrorize those that do not comply.
Threat of violence, force, and gunpoint from the corrupted government traitors and their varied dynasties of jackboot black block antifa blm “Mostly Peaceful Rioters” and trust fund babies gluing themselves everywhere while destroying our artworks.
Nope, I stand firm, they are foolish cultists that think they are more intelligent than god and have destroyed much in playing their insanity to the letter in their Frankenstein creations of unnatural evil.
What was the saying someone stated, whenever you look at a world stage debacle you will always find an alumni from Harvard or Yale in the middle of it.
The big hug, also known as the Bud Light approach.
Inauthentic and non-sensical, illogical it tries to manipulate through triggering EMOTIONAL responce.
So long as you keep your emotions in check, it is obvious to see.
And, they still think there is some significantly large base of RINO Republican voters and disaffected MAGA’s that they can persuade to vote for someone “other than Trump”.
Their polling data is hopelessly scewed, and they are so committed to using polling data to tell them “where they are, and where they need to go” that they keep aiming/shooting way off target, and refuse to accept the data is fatally flawed.
Cause MAGA DO NOT DO POLLS.
I see so few people able to keep their emotions in check these days.
Having emotions is one thing; we all have them.
But these people, the crazies on both sides, thrive off of their emotions, and love stirring up conflict in others.
I believe I can keep my emotions in check for the most part. But when it comes to the UNiparty itself, that cold anger is always there.
It doesn’t matter to me anymore if they’re all stupid, scheming or crazy like a fox. I just want them all gone.
And punished. They must held accountable for their crimes. Else a new crop of grifters will slide into their place and nothing will ever change.
There goes Sundance with his spoilers! How are we going to enjoy this show now?
(sarcasm)
I blame Sundance and all of the people who spoke out about DeSantis for his campaign failing. It took quite a while to get many of the DeSantis fans to see the light but I think we’re all there now.
Thx Sundance, we are well trained to see through this B as in B and S as in S. Sorry RD, it will not fly!
And she just showed up. She loves Donald Trump soooo much (she’s crying) that she’s voting for DeS😆
OMG! Say it isn’t so.
This little gnat is ..well he’s just that, a little gnat.
planted
Probably his aunt who is never seen.
Then why are you even THERE, very hardcore Trump supporter?
Probably like all the people they pull out, like little girls with twitter accounts and all those actors needing to fill in for their barista jobs.
They are liars and there is no Truth in them.
Always love your replies with Biblical comments added.
Notice how the naysayers of Trump always start off their remarks about how they love Trump or voted for Trump before they jump into why they no longer support him. Never Trump commenters do the same thing.
Never Trumper Glen Beck basically said the same at Bob Vander Plaats conference. Pop psychology about how voters don’t want to abandon the man who has been unfairly treated…
She received an invite. That’s their ploy; “You’re special so we’ve sent you an invite to our event.”
I received one of those “invites” to a Meatball and Bill Lee event via text. I deleted and reported as spam
The only part missing was the part where she feigned a fainting fit and DeStablishment threw her a water bottle.
Great find, Pegon!
And look, just as Sundance predicted. So starts the big hug!
What a little weasel. “I will get it done for you” is a President Trump saying
Meatball only talks about the Russia stuff now that it’s out in the open as to the corrupt targeting of a President in a coup. Meatball’s testicles have receded. He needs to let them drop and exit the race
The honest truth is, Ron DeSwampus had NO chance at being President in 2024, no matter what he did.
There are too many of us who know that President Trump would be in the White House right now, if not for the rampant cheating and deceptions of the left. I was never going to vote for anyone other than him, and I am certainly not alone.
DeSwanpus misread the room. But that’s not a surprise, he is blinded by ambition. He has been used by the globalists to attempt to defeat their greatest enemy, but they have failed.
If you try to strike the king, you’d best not miss. Now Ron’s political career is over. He just doesn’t know it yet.
I take exception to your statement. “The Left” is not the only political party cheating, playing dirty, and manipulating who get to run for office. Until we acknowledge that the RINOs are EQUALLY complicit in any attempt to destroy Trump/MAGA then we are still operating under deception.
The RINOs are our enemy. THEY ALLOW the commie dems to do the overt dirty work while the RINOs do the sly, subtle dirty work.
There are too many of us who know that President Trump would be in the White House right now, if not for the rampant cheating and
deceptions of the left.Uniparty.The uniparty doesn’t care if Ron loses. Any other air-head will do.
After DeSantis navigates the shift, he will be struck on the nose with a rolled up “newspaper”…
He will incorporate Donny Osmond’s “Puppy Love” into his campaign’s theme music.
What is so troubling about all this is the fact that DJT is really all we have at the moment. All in God’s hands now. The whole thing may have to come tumbling down before it can be rebuilt if that’s even possible. Faith…….
It’s alawys possible.
Didn’t those rag tag plebian colonial SUBJECTS that were ruled by the greatest military nation at the time show that they could do exactly that?
Yes, they did, and first they wrote the King a Declaration that had this gem of wisdom in it …
“That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, “
It sounds like DeSantis is a controlled puppet on a string with some psychopathic tendencies. The meatball and the WH moron have similarities.
DeStablishment is reminding me more and more every day of both McStain and McRomney.
Agreed. There has to at least be sociopathy at a significant degree in order to do what DeSantis is doing. There’s no way around it.
It will be fun to watch
Let’s not forget, Meatball is a Poodle, a Legal Beagle that was “assigned” to Super Sheep Dogs. He giggled at being in their presence and watching hard interrogation. Meatball is another opportunist, an ivy league frat boy, who does well when managed. He don’t float like a butterfly nor sting like a bee. We need hard serious as we’re in a very very serious fight.
The big hug strategy makes sense but maybe is too late. Suspicions have been raised. Trump needs not only a competent VP but also one who will cover his not so metaphorical back- given the current poisonous political situation. The last thing Trump needs is a LBJ on the ticket. Personally I like Cari Lake.
Kari Lake is the ONLY potential VP, that provides PDJT with an “Insurance policy against any attempt to remove him from office, by any means.
THAT one qualification alone, that ONLY she has, dictates that KL MUST be PDJT’s VP.
“Not enough political experience”; how much did DJT have, when he moved into the Oval?
“Not enough experience, overall.” LOOK what is VP right now.
What about Gov. of Az.?
IF SCOTUS reverses her election, RDS (and Gavin) have already shown it is now “acceptable” for a sitting Gov to run for National Executive office while serving.
She would be a great asset to PDJT, and a great POTUS candidate in 2028.
And, just as WE are hesitant about impraching or 25th’ing Joe, knowing what would replace him,..for very different reasons PDJT’s detractors would be terrified of having Kari in the Oval, and that REMOVES the whole rolling Impeachments, Special Coincil investigations b.s. off the menu of options for his enemies, as well as 25th’ing or even the JFK “Executive action”.
Hence she would be his MUCH NEEDED “Insurance policy”, and just as it can ONLY be PDJT for POTUS in 2024, it can ONLY be Kari Lake for VPOTUS.
Trump/Lake 2024
Accept nothing less than the best.
Dutchman, I love the meat of this comment.
For the first time it occurs to me that the enemy may become desperate enough to rig Kari into the Governorship, in an attempt to head her off at the (Hail Mary) pass…
…and you’ve just pointed out that such an attempt will likely and logically be in vain…
Steps ahead!
There’s also the Senate seat option out there…sticky wicket to be in…timing will be everything
Sounds spot on. Right now there are only two “authentic” voices in the race, Trump and Ramaswamy, and I’ll add another who isn’t, Lake. There are a bunch of MAGA politicians out there who don’t speak talking points, and their number is increasing. MAGA, who now owns the party (although not much of the power at present, but that’s coming), can sniff out a phony from a mile away. Hubris always leads to nemesis, and DeSantis is to stupid and self-absorbed to realize it. I heard Caroline Wren, a MAGA warrior and advisor to Lake, say yesterday on War Room, DeSantis wants to be president, while Trump wants to save America. BIG difference.
If Ramaswamy wanted to be “authentic” MAGA and make sure that PDJT wins the White House then he should cease trying to take votes away from PDJT.
Vivek is like that “friend” who is so happy for you that you found a great gal but then keeps trying to steal her from you.
“Paul & Daisy Soros Fellow Vivek Ramaswamy’s Roivant Sciences Develops Clinical Stage Antibody to Prevent and Treat Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) in Patients with COVID-19”
https://www.pdsoros.org/meet-the-fellows/vivek-ramaswamy
Also a WEF guy.
Vivek is not WEF
The timing of this and PDJT’s Truth Social post about Jack Smith and Jan. 6th is so coordinated. It won’t work especially since the DeSimp influencers such as Bryan/Max continue attacking Trump supporters.
I cant wait to see Meatball cry like Tammy Fae Baker, mascara and chocolate pudding on his tear stained face.
Biden didnt win GA in 2020 and neither did Newsom in 2024. Now back to your regularly scheduled pretending
Phooey – the
HonorableDishonorable Arnold commends him?Yes, integrity counts. What does that have to do with you Brad Raffensperger?
It is like all of the campaign “promises” that Team RINO has been spewing over the years.
Balanced budget, repeal Obamacare, close the borders, better schools, freedom, free speech, fair elections, pro America, good jobs, better economy, drill for our own oil, blah blah blah.
They have learned over the years to tell us what we want to hear but really do not intend on doing it.
Every unhealthy, obese, alcohol abuser, sugar addicted, chain smoker person can tell you what needs to be done to stop hurting their bodies but 99% of them will not actually do what is necessary to achieve success.
Something about the integrity of his bank account due to fraudulent book sales.
AP – ‘Trump says he has been notified he’s a target of the US probe into efforts to overturn 2020 election.’
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-says-he-has-been-notified-he-s-a-target-of-the-us-probe-into-efforts-to-overturn-2020-election/ar-AA1e14MC?ocid=winp2fptaskbar&cvid=f717a8eb392445b1db5fde244a78fba0&ei=4
GOOD. PDJT has developed a very effective counter to Lawfare; he gets his version out FIRST, and so the Truth runs around the World, before the lie can gets its shoes laced up.
He did it on the MAL raid, and again on the Bragg indictments.
Ga case of the “more perfecter phone call” is going to inevitably bring the 2020 election “was it stolen” question front and center, for adjudication in the “Court of public opinion” because IF it was stolen in Ga. (of coarse it was) than it was NOT “election interference” to call the Ga.SOS and say what PDJT said.
So, this is a case we,WANT them to bring.
And, the case in DC by Smith, in the same manner will actually adjudicate the J6 FBI initiated riot, as making the case PDJT instigated it “conspiracy to commit sedition” inevitably leads right to J6.
And, before PDJT actually “makes his case” on either of those issues, what does the jury say?
Rasmussen poll, several days ago;
“Did the FBI provoke the J6 riot?
65% of all voters, 74% of Republicans say “yes”.
I don’t have the #’s on “Was 2020 election stolen?” but they are definetly over 50%.
The best thing that could happen for PDJT and MAGA, is for them to indict him in Ga. for election interference, and in D.C. for “Seditious Conspiracy”.
“Well, punk,….do you feel lucky? Go ahead, make my day!”
DeSantis reminds me of a young George W. Bush. He was very convincing back then. And turns out, he was a deeply embedded Swamper. So few worthy to lead us as a nation.
The Big Hug
aka
The Pierre Delecto Two-Step
It is simply a shuffle by two guys who most likely can’t dance worth a plug nickel. BTW, a nickel is 5 cents for those with smart phones and digital currency who never worked in fast food when we all we had was paper currency and metal coinage.
The Pierre Delecto Two-Step shuffle is them pimping themselves out to President Trump:
I need a job. Any job, pretty please. I have a WIFE and lot’s of children. You know how that is! P U H – L E A S E . My state doesn’t want me back. H E L P !
The people are not sending Congress our very best.
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/?s=Mitt+Romney
I just love my President – so cheerful and positive!
That picture is worth 81 million words.
Yep. President Trump: “I caught them all.”
A great moment, when he gave Mitt the big kiss off.
“Nope, it ain’t happening, you snake!”
Utah State R party leadership (Executive committee) insured Mitt got that Senate seat, not Utah voters.
Look at their faces?
Trump knows that he will never support Mittens…For anything?
Mitten’s face looks like he just realized that he is screwed?
Is that dinner? The men in my house would have that gone in two bites and would be wondering how long it would take for pizza to be delivered. Just kidding.
Collins’ tummy: Is that pic from one of those Gateway Pundit ads? 😉
appalling – is that the best Maine can do?
I can see her belly button. Not a good look. Horrible. They all look constipated, which they are. FoS.
I got all of the pix from a Sundance articles at CTH.
A fashion flop or flap for sure.
If I ever forget and use the name “Mitt Romney” my Mom sighs and continues reading her WSJ until I remember to say “Pierre Delecto” – there is NO “Mitt Romney” in our house!
SMART WOMAN! Give her a hug and tell her I said so.
I miss my Mom. 20+ years now. Hard to believe.
Yes, I know I am very blessed – she will be 95 years old this coming September – I thank dear God every day.
Get in real close, then shiv him in the ribs.
This is exactly what Paul Ryan did to candidate Trump in 2016. Schedule a rally with him in Wisconsin, for the sole purpose of pulling out of it when the Access Hollywood tapes came out.
JC: Just saw your comment, reading upward after I mentioned same “shiv” phrase down below. That’s a powerful thing to remember.
Maybe if The Big Hug doesn’t/will not work, Ron DeSantis can morph himself into a long-term tortoise vs. hare run? Eventually he’s going to catch that hare (i.e., prize, i.i.e., Casey’s FLOTUS dream).
I cannot get past the elevator lifts in his cowboy boots, that was all I could focus on when he was schmoozing with Tucker. The way he sat you could see the outline of the wedge.
And Casey, poor little Casey, an attractive woman with tiara fantasies, had to go and open her mouth.
Wonder if he thinks hugging our magnanimous bear will help him when he comes limping back to Florida?
Casey really stuck the nail in the coffin for Ron!
Double FAIL.
SD: “This is what I call the Alex Castellanos shift.”
Per SD link ‘Use site search’ above: “[…] The best way to do it is how Brutus killed Caesar. Get real close, snuggle up, and shiv him in the ribs.” (Taken from a Breitbart article in 2015.)
That’s a line to remember!
PTrump’s snake story and real life encounter/battles with the deep state.
He will be ready. We are standing firm.
we all know the entire “thing” (presidential opponents of President Trump) are kabuki theatre.
and its all gag worthy
We can “take it to the bank, that whatever RDS says, he doesn’t mean.
I saw a headline saying he vows to prevent CBCD’s, (if elected POTUS) which means if elected he would, guaranteed roll out CBCD’s.
Alex Castellenis is the RNC operative that promoted “Republicans, the party of stupid.”
NOT because he actually is against the ‘interests of the Party”; just the opposite.
He did it to encourage the base to ascribe R party leaderships actions and inactions as due to stupidity, rather than MALICE aforethought.
And, it worked.
And, Alex is also the one that pushed for pollsters, pundits etc. to refer to “unaffiliated with any party registered voters as “Independants”.
Pollsters and pundits adopted it because it takes less words, but Alex did it because it benefited those R base voters pissed off at the R party to LEAVE, rather than staying in the party and fighting the leadership.
And, he knew that saying you are “Independant” has PSYCHOLOGICAL appeal, and he wanted these MAGA before there was MAGA, Populist R voters OUT of the party, and off where they would have NO real political influence, as there is NO “Independant” party no set agreed agenda verbalised in a party platform, no slate of “Independant” candidates endorsing such a platform, and so no political clout.
It was a MANIPULATION, encouraging people to act (deregistering as Republicans, and registering as “Indies”) basedon EMOTIONS rather than logic, it put those troublemaker populists off where they couldn’tdo any harm, …and it worked.
Yes – especially in blueMA.
We now have a bigger percentage identifying as “Independent” than as either wing of the UniParty. Even GooglEvil says so:
In 2023, 25% of people identified as Democrat, 25% as Republican and 49% Independent.
Presidential candidate in search for, and in need of, a backbone and and truth barometer.
So, when it’s too late, DeSantis finally shifts to the praise Trump strategy…These people are really dumb….
So the Big Hug coming just in time for the following beginning to shake out…
‘Almost Always Means an Arrest’: Trump Says Third Indictment Looming Over January 6 Fedsurrection
The Big Hugly?
Or the big Huggie Bear.
It’s just more acting experience for Ron. The downside, for his producers, being that he may, at some point, throw up his hands in exasperation, pack his bags and move to Hollywood. If this happens, please clap.
I’m seeing multiple reports that HollyWeird is shooting itself in the foot with the current strikes and may just bring about its own collapse.
If they get wind DeStablishment is coming their way – they may accelerate the process.
Better collapse than being cringed to death.
Yup, he will ride in on his noble steed as the White Knight.
But with his incompetent staff, they’ll probably get a miniature horse like Lil’ Sebastian from the show Parks and Rec.
His team will think, “This is it, this is what the people want. This will surely put him over the edge!”
I can just see it, it will be another public flop because his feet will be touching the ground as he “rides” in on this small horse.
Nope, not even Lil’ Sebastian can save you now Rob.
Please clap!
Putting all cards on the table, let’s look past Ron DeSantis for a moment. He’s nothing but a toady for the UniParty and a tool of the Deep State, even if unwittingly. I guess it’s better now we learn of his allegiances than six months into a presidential administration. I can’t believe he once was the 2028 frontrunner for the Republican ticket. More of the same ilk which handed us McCain and Romney.
The DC establishment through Democrat Lawfare believe they can somehow disqualify Donald Trump from being the Republican nominee for president in 2024. It’s that simple. We all know this is ending up in the Supreme Court.
How much do you trust the current Supreme Court saving Trump when there are clearly compromised and controlled justices like John Roberts? To lessen the blow, the vote will end up 5-4 against Trump with Roberts the deciding vote.
Tell me I’m wrong. They are moving heaven and earth to block Trump from a second term. While I don’t believe the intelligence and war machine in the Federal Government could be permanently derailed, a focused second term from Trump could derail it for years and upset globalist plans for decades.
Bingo Phantom, you just hit the nail on the head. “Derail it for years and upset globalist plans for decades”. This is the main and best thing we can pray for in Trump’s 3rd term. President Trump will be going against a deep state that has been entrenched for 100 years or more. No way is he going to turn it around in 4 years with them fighting him at every turn. Hopefully in 2028 someone like Lake can continue the job. It is going to take many years and many “President Trump’s” to get it done.
There would need to another crossover vote in addition to Roberts. The court is actually 6-3.
Who else do you think would vote with him – Gorsuch, Kavenaugh, Barrett, Alito, or Thomas?
I’ve never assumed Kavanaugh is on the right side of anything – he’s an Establishment snake who because of the circumstances under which he was confirmed in the Senate, no one knows what promises he made to sitting Senators for their votes.
This is The Resurrection of Meatball take # 10:
“Hi! I am Ron, the make nice candidate.”
(Trump’s a meanie.)
In previous years this would probably go down with great effect, but the GOPe’s playbook is old, tired and well known to its opposition, the US citizenry. It is unlikely to have much effect.
“Neutering” is the key word for DeSanctimonious.
He is neutered, he likes being neutered, and he will continue to be neutered — all while watching a man who definitely still has all his original equipment mop the floor with those who hate the United States and her people; President Donald Trump.
I think the anticipated J6 indictment of PDJT will be the focus of this strategy. It’s almost like the DOJ is moving now to give Meatball an assist.
I also think the republicans in congress are giving the dems an assist in their efforts to push Brandon out as well.
Like the Hitchcock movie strangers on a train. They do the dirty work for each other.
Also Smith is having to move earlier to indict PDJT because he is crushing everyone in the primary polling.
Meatballs collapse and PDJT’s increasing support has moved the timeline up.
Leading to Premature Indictment.
Actually it’s not likely any of the cases could ever be mature – that is, ready for presentation – with their utterly ridiculous premises.
I just saw this. He’s already using it as a talking point.
Doesn’t look like there’s any hugging around.
So far.
If he truly felt that without Trump he would not be governor he would not have run
Good point.
I agree with Sundance that the fix was in very early on DeStablishment.
Only Trump (and God) can bring accountability.
If DeSantis truly wanted to stand up to the FBI and DOJ, he could turn off the water and electric to their buildings in his state. His Attorney General could begin indicting them, and searching their buildings.
Personally I agree with candidates to praise Trump. Best most accomplished president. Hopefully he won’t degard any competitors just say what he wants to achieve. Nothing to gain by being mean he should be above that
This is why GOP is going to use the J6 indictment to try to keep PDJT off the ballot in key states. That is their only way to keep him from the nomination.
Isn’t that election interference? Lawfare is badgering a candidate with false charges -AGAIN- *timed* to keep him off the ballot?
God forbid the overwhelming majority of American voters decides who is their real President!
Just saw a press conference put out by the Meatball, and he was trying to slow roll how he feels about this new set of charges against President Trump, and what a joke This guy is like a trained seal, and should just shut the hell up
and SD you were right about everything you said here in this Article My gosh, Desantis is really more than a scum bag he is slimy too, but that’s ok too He seems to think he will finally get installed as the President when they take P.Trump out
President Trump does not have to comply with this letter, Throw it in the trash and go on and do what P.Trump does best talk to the people, He needs to hit Ron Desantis over the latest ad and punch him a few times so that he feels it
DeSantis supporters are gonna swoon over this, the rest of us needed a good laugh.
I have posted here a few times that this strategy is the only way RDS can have a future. It helps Trump get elected and endears some to him for a 2028 run and maybe gets him a visible position that launches him into 2028. But unlikely now.
Trying to destroy Trump is plain to see stupidity. Come on man, haven’t you seen what happens to all those that took that approach.
For me, I don’t believe ANYTHING that comes the Republican Party–or any candidate. I consider professional Republicans the same as Democrats.
The only difference is that sometimes (usually around election time), Republicans start saying things I agree with. And the closer election approaches, the more they say things I agree with. But after the election, of course, all the sweet talk goes away and Republicans either vote with Democrats, or make excuses for them. The worst case is when Republicans issue blistering talking points and give indignant interviews over the atrocities of Democrats, until the klieg lights go out and the cameras turn off and happy hour approaches.
Then it turns into one big bacchanal toga party where party affiliation becomes blurred with each cocktail consumed.
I’ve posted this before, but its always good for new readers and commenters for CTH to read. Ironically, it was written by former WH journalist for Reuters, Sam Youngman, and it appeared in the very establishment Politico. Notwithstanding all this, Youngman nails the collegial, politically incestuous culture of DC.

Wrong, he won’t do any such thing. He is now just enjoying watching Jack Smith go after Trump. And tonight, conveniently, he will go on Jake Tapper of CNN for an interview.
Too late, Ronnie. We already know you for the Deep State tool that you are.
“DeSantis will be trained to speak warmly”. That’s funny. Can they train him to not bobble his head?
Is this the reason Megyn Kelly posted a sugary sweet video about her meeting with DJT? She is in the tank for DeSantis and has at times throughout the year been unable to hide her elation about DJTs legal troubles and committed to pushing GOP talking points about maga cultists and Trump’s sympathy polls. She also pushes the false idea that the DNC wants to run against DJT because he will bring out their base to vote against him.
This year alone, she has named Melania twice and said negative things about their marriage. Has she apologized to Melania? He doesn’t need to send a Truth/tweet out but he certainly shouldn’t give her the ratings. She’s in the tank for DeSantis and always looking for moments to take jabs at Trump. Why TPUSA included her at their conference is beyond me when she was instrumental in pushing kids to embrace a different gender & pushing men into women’s sports. Has she apologized for those shows she did for NBC? Has she apologized to the kids or the parents? What about the athletes? MK needs DJT more than he needs her platform. She has been trying for some time to get DJT on her show. DeSantis is finally sitting down with her and I hope Trump will reject the invitation.
I’m so confused on criticism of Tucker. He has said he loves Trump, he was fired for being conservative.. He single handedly ousted Pence from the race Sat. Please explain!!!!
My take:
Fox ratings are minuscule compared to possible reach through social media. Tucker got to move from a dying media to the internet with Fox still paying his multimillion $ salary. No risk.
Most importantly he looks like he was fired for being a rebel and removed the Fox stink of controlled opposition that everyone was catching onto (never touch election fraud, Trump, etc.)
Pence, Scott, Christy, Ramaswamy, Haley are straw men. There isn’t anyone, except perhaps themselves, who expect them to win.
Tucker gets to beat up the straw men solidifying his “rebel” image and we all cheer him on.
Am I right? We shall see if he does the I love Trump… BUT…. routine. Time will tell.
Pence never had a prayer. Tucker didn’t do anything there, and is still suspect.
The Uniparty is scrambling hard. They are under extreme pressure, have been since 2006 and it’s growing. Expect them to blunder. They have promiscuously exhibited their considerable powers, and exposed themselves. It is to our purpose, as their downfall can only come through them exposing themselves, as they are.
