For some apparently unknown reason, CNN’s Jake Tapper suddenly dropped his combative nature that he carries toward Republicans and shifted to an extremely demure disposition, as he interviews Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. This is the softest softball interview I have ever seen Jake Tapper deliver; and that history goes all the way back to his ABC days as a White House correspondent.
It’s almost as if there’s an agenda here in the background for Jake Tapper. Remember, this is the guy who led the Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy for over two years with his friends Carl Bernstein, Jim Sciutto and Manu Raju, and the same Jake Tapper who affirmed that everything in the Chris Steele dossier was factually accurate.
Watching Jake Tapper softly interview Ron DeSantis with literally zero pushback, not a single challenge to a single response from DeSantis, is really odd – particularly on the heels of Tapper’s background allies advancing another round of indictments against President Trump. It’s almost as if this is a coordinated set up on behalf of the DC system to the benefit of Ron DeSantis, who is supported by the multinational corporations who sponsor the CNN agenda. Go figure. WATCH:
Jake Tapper seems almost intellectually resigned, seemingly disinterested, in having to play this role. Watch him closely… you can almost see Tapper saying, “yada, yada, yada… can we just get this over with.” lol Too conspicuous.
Trump gets a grand jury letter from the DOJ…. DeSantis gets a softball interview with Jake Tapper… Congress has a Hunter Biden whistleblower hearing…. then comes a Trump indictment. Gee, it’s almost like that one time when Mar-a-Lago was raided, and oddly DeSantis was scheduled for bunker time…. right before the national campaign launch. 👀
At this point, it’s not just the strings we can see…. the hands moving above the strings are visible.
I am so DONE with this crap!!! These people are not even acting as badly any longer.
.
This is so dishonorable of Ron-duh — hyping his military service as a hook for votes.
He references George Bush, the Cia president, as a precedent for himself to be in the White House, just couldn’t utter his name, though.
Yes, he ‘defended’ our VSGPDJT as being targeted for political purposes, but if he had any integrity to back up his words, he would not be running against Donald Trump.
It seemed obvious to me that he BELIEVES PDJT will not be in the primaries; thus, he is smugly acquiescing to the ‘rigging’ while never acknowledging the assist President Trump gave him which put him in the position that he can josh with Jake today . . .
He wasn’t even a proper military officer. He was some JAG-off who more than likely never fired a gun outside of basic training. Certainly never at the enemy
The kind who tied the hands of our warriors. JAG needs to be cut by 95%.
Flimsy Gramnasty was also a JAG officer?
It’s not the “badge of honor” that The Bobblehead thinks it is?
BTW: The College of Charleston is a liberal arts party school.
He and I were deployed to Iraq at about the same time and he and his JAG colleagues were very safely and securely located and quartered in the Green Zone!!! I had todo patrols outside the Green Zone o face anything and everything!!! 🤨

This gives us a shadow of his military career.
https://healthimpactnews.com/2023/americans-beware-what-belies-the-smile-of-ron-desantis/
Mr “born on the eight day” Ron might have approved torture. Someone needs to ask him about this.
Someone should ask DeSanctimonious about his military career but it seems some information remains unavailable….https://theduran.com/al-mayadeen-i-was-screaming-and-he-was-smiling-desantis-ran-guantanamo-torture/?fbclid=IwAR0SiHV3dF-pQDc8Y7X6UopdVdSza1kORm4GwEeNBieFbhAlKlo6WUoz2XQ
Lies and more lies…….he’s not fooling anyone…..
Sundance was absolutely correct when he predicted Defraud would start saying good things about President Trump, thus giving him the “Big Hug”!
“DeSantis Next Move – Here Comes the Big Hug”July 18, 2023
I don’t see how we fix this nation Sundance.
We are literally watching alternate electors being charged with some nutty conspiracy.
The left is using the laws of our nation against us and the douchebag republicans are trying to play tiddly winks because “muh- globalist money”
We’re running out of time and I can’t see DJT winning in ‘24.
If he is lucky enough to beat the system then I think they will pull the trigger.
I believe we are done as a nation and most of the people refuse or don’t see it.
I’m sorry if I’m so skeptical but I see no solution to this mess.
There is a solution, but it’s looking increasingly like the 1776 solution, I’m afraid. The question is whether our modern day Americans have what they had
Pick a founding father and emulate him. Mine is James Madison
It’s a nice spin on Fahrenheit 451 (where the book-burning resistance memorized a book each to preserve them until a time when it was once again legal to print and read them). Vonnegut was a genius, and ahead of his time like Orwell, Huxley, and others.
It’s probably not a bad idea to commit our history to oral tradition… with the digitization of (and easily changed) “facts”, it won’t be long until books are considered entirely passe. They may not be burned, but they will be replaced with completely revisionist tomes. Conservative book companies increasingly fight an uphill battle: how long before they, too, become targets of the weaponized left?
Just like: The Book of Eli!
I just don’t believe we do, and if we do have the fortitude how do we go about doing what needs to be done?
Americans’ ‘Thirst for Freedom’ The Revolutionary War’s Special Operations Raid at Stony Point
…In order to accomplish this mission, the American officers sought volunteers for the forlorn hope and a hundred-man advance guard. The advance guard would be the first troops to enter the fort after the forlorn hope chopped through the walls, and they would bear the brunt of the enemy’s defensive efforts. Many Marylanders answered the call…as much as 10 percent of the Maryland troops in the American Revolution were African Americans.
Before the group had set out around noon, General “Mad Anthony” Wayne had ordered, “Should there be any soldier so lost to every feeling of honor, as to attempt to retreat one single foot or skulk in the face of danger, the officer next to him is immediately to put him to death.” The same fate would befall any man who spoke or discharged his musket. The officers carried spontoons—long, menacing, razor-sharp iron pikes on the end of wooden poles—which would be used without hesitation to fulfill General Wayne’s order should the need arise. And the need did arise—an officer ran through at least one man who tried to flee.
In complete silence, the Patriot forces marched more than 13 miles across mountainous terrain so rugged that they were frequently forced to move in single file. By the time they reached the fortifications at Stony Point, it was the middle of the night. Alert British sentries caught sight of the approaching Americans and opened fire. The forlorn hope tore into the abatis while the enemy spewed musket fire and grape shot. They managed to cut a small opening in the first abatis and pushed their way through to the second, many of them catching clothing and flesh on the sharpened sticks as they passed.
Yelling, “The fort’s our own!” the men soon breached the fort’s upper defenses…

They don’t
Not really a solution for those of us who want to, you know, live.
There is a cure.
I think you are a realist.
as long as americans sit in their chairs, drink their craft beers, look at the latest scores from the woke sports teams, play games on their phones, and expect others to take care of it, we will fall,,,,,I have been in the trenches for years, with no backup, no help, no support, and I am tired and ready to let it all fall down, am done
Lead…Follow…Or get out of the F’ing way!
Your choice is…Die free or live as a slave?
What about “I am done” was unclear as to which of your options the poster took.
I don’t blame the poster. The overwhelming majority of Americans don’t care or actively oppose decency and you can’t force it when you’re badly outnumbered.
Don’t give up.I am in the same spot.I look around and see only people oblivious to the peril we are inand I weep for the good old
days. If Donald Trump can take it, we can. I see Cold Anger in his eyes and they have awakened the MAGA public. I am beyond
furious. Boycotts and prayers are all I can do.
j
I agree with you. I used to help with good candidates. I write, read, get out information. Nothing helps.
I am done. You can’t force the rest of the country to be a decent country if they have rejected it.
I am just trying to go to church and get some enjoyment out of life before I die.
Damn right, Sundance! With media hacks palming off this tripe as NEWS, how can our citizens be informed?
Citizens don’t have to believe the lies
Is this the REAL Big Hug?
They are trying to ban Trump from running. Well Meatball Ron, if you think that will make me vote for you, you have another thing coming. You’ve shown you’re another sleezy Rino AKA Globalist. You need to join your Rino friends and change to Democrat. You’re not even being a good governor. How can you with your flying everywhere to campaign. If it’s between you and brain dead Biden I will not vote. Between you and Kennedy I will vote for Kennedy
He won’t campaign in Florida, the optics would spoil everything. He is persona non grata here.
The Bobblehead is down by 20 points in his own state?
Is he counting on “hanging chads” to pull out a win?
If President Trump’s not on the ballot, I’m not voting at all
If the establishment Repubs take Trump out of the running…it becomes MAGAs DUTY to allow Dims a trifecta in 24.
Let the lying liar Republicans run as the Dims they really are…We The People will SHOW them NO MORE obtaining wealth & having a seat at the table off of our backs/votes.
That lesser of 2 evils crap we’ve fallen for in the past…is CRAP & in the past!
If it comes to Ron and Kennedy, I’ll write in Donald Trump.
However, MAGA cannot allow the Senate to be run by McConnell, Romney, Murkowski, etc …the very people responsible for taking Trump down.
Let the Dims take the trifecta & get ready…bc this country is breathing the death rattle.
If the establishment Repubs take Trump out of the way…it is MAGAs DUTY to allow Dims a trifecta in 24…without cheating.
Because if Trump is not allowed to serve at the request of the people…that is PROOF we will not be “allowed” to reclaim our Republic.
So let the chips fall where they fall.
Patriots that have been watching for 20+ years are the prepared ones.
Survival will then be in God’s hands.
Smells like the McCain media play when they painted him as the Maverick against his party until they turned on him in the general election.
Meatball is a knob, a tool of the deep state, selling out his country.
At this point, there is nothing DeSatan has to say that I am interested in, other than “I quit” in his native parseltongue.
Mockingbird Media program = C(IA)NN = Jake “the Snake” Tapper = controlled asset.
That’s All, Folks! (music to Looney Tunes cartoons in background)
Just imagine how stupid they truly think we are…I understand they look down at us but everything regarding Trump (the indictments) and this primary demonstrates the level of stupidity they think we have collectively.
And yet- we have fellow Americans, daily, showing them they are not wrong about some of us.
Unfortunately, you are correct.
30-40-30 rule of propaganda/marketing – they’re aiming at the 40% in the middle.
240 million American’s took a fake vaxxine at the prodding of the deep state media. They know many are stupid.
Many of them on “conservative” media sites.
See Salem Media & Daily Wire as examples.
The writers & the commenters.
Major Trump hatred & bashing & the cheerleading of DeFraud.
It’s downright sickening to realize how weak our fellow “conservative” citizens are.
Yes,I have noted this on many platforms. “Conservative” does not mean “Constitutional” or “patriotic.” The word has been co-opted by globalists like Romney, McConnell, Graham, and McCarthy – in general, the RNC.
If McConnell calls himself a conservative, then that’s absolutely something I’m not.
The funny part of all this is that these dopes think they’re fooling good American people – we’re on to their Bravo-Sierra and they don’t seem to realize that. Humorous, but pathetic.
PRAVDA!!!
All we can do right now is watch the show.
They don’t even care that they are being so blatant. Why? Because there are still morons who can’t seem to see it. Useful idiots.
It’s true there are and always will be useful idiots out there. But my sense is they’re an increasingly shrinking proportion of the population, yet their numbers and influence are magnified beyond belief by the corporate media (propaganda) organs of the uniparty. It’s like more people are awake and rubbing their eyes after a hard night’s binge, while the useless few continue to sleep in and rest up for the next night’s binge.
This is how Ron DeSantis can not handle even a mild question “why he didn’t take questions from “book tour” rally” – with the
“Are you blind? Are you blind?”. Anybody paying attention should have gotten a clue then.
But. No. The bought-and-paid-for online influencers (opinion writers) still churn out fluff pieces after fluff pieces about DeSantis’s so-call “Trump without the mean tweets”.
Also in the interview, DeSantis only said a weaponized DOJ/FBI going after ‘people they don’t like’, which is not good for the country, and he as elected potus will put a stop to it.
DeSantis did mention the Trump-Russia collusion against president Trump:
“So you have a situation where the Department of Justice, FBI, have been weaponized against people they don’t like and the number one example of that happened to be against Donald Trump with the Russia collusion. That was not a legitimate investigation. That was being done to try to drive Trump out of office.” It just simply ‘happened’.
====> With regards to Trump-Russia collusion, DOJ/FBI started the “investigation” with the paid by Hillary fake Steele dossier, but most of the noise and effort to drive president Trump out of office was instigated from the Congress with full throated support from msm.
This is not first time I said this,but why not have Eric &Jr put up the money & get on the ballet for some kind of insurance policy.I do believe Trump will be in jail or JFK ed.
If Junior and Eric are not running scared, they’re certainly proceeding with due caution. They’ve seen what the “establishment” did to PDJT while both in and out of office. They know they could very well be next.
Being in prison wouldn’t stop Trump from running, and assassinating your opponent doesn’t always work. Especially here, where it would be so out in the open and obvious who assassinated him
Look at the Liberators’ Civil War. Brutus and Cassius thought that, by assassinating Julius Caesar, they could restore the Roman Republic. Instead what happened is they were run out of Rome, lost the inevitable civil war and Rome was transformed from a constitutional republic with an elected senate, to an empire ruled by a self-proclaimed God Emperor
DeSantis is the appearance of choice who will play the gracious loser. Romney, McCain style. Get em next time.
This is a 💩show and they don’t even try to hide it! They know we know it’s a 💩show and they don’t care anymore, we’re going to get what they want to give us whether we like it or not! We’re going to get food shortages, energy shortages, an economic depression and massive spending on the climate crisis hoax! CNN and the meatball are dutifully playing their part!!! President Trump or bust!!! God help us!!! Hosanna!!!
I gat a visceral reaction hearing or seeing the Meatball. Like Hannity his voice triggers a headache.
We have until November “24 to wake up everyone we can.
If we fail, then I’d suggest mixing John Galt with Alexandr Solzhenitsyn.
It’s a big club, “the hands moving above the strings are visible” Just shut up and read the questions Jake ! Sad state of affairs.
I see not so much hands controlling the strings, as I do claws.
Both sides are playing this fool…together , unified. Uniparty.
This is a ‘sarcastic’ post, right?
I don’t even need to watch the interview. From the still shot, DeSanctiomonius appears on the edge of tears.
Won’t back to Florida either.
What an ugly creature.
Think how kindly the propaganda press treated the Quisling McCain, until it was time to go up against the Light Bringer in the general election. Here’s your sign, Ron.
all of sudden listing to rde is like listing to nails on a chalk board or hilary…
Yeah it’s all hands on deck to save the Meatball, including Tapper. They need to Lawfare Trump out of the race, so the Meatball can be installed over Biden. This is the downside of the Uniparty picking a dementia patient in 2020, running with a fool. They risked an election where they control neither candidate instead of both.
This is a great interview by DeSantis. There was no push back by Tapper because he knew he would not have a credible honest response to a DeSantis reply. The problem DeSantis has is his late recognition that he is standing on Trump’s shoulder and that Trump’s supporters know it. His challenge is to convince Trump that he DeSantis will have Trump’s back in all situations and that he is not a LBJ.
The coup continues as we have nobody stopping it! I said this in 2018 and 2020 that Trump should have used whatever loyalty he had in the military and shut down the DOJ and FBI permanently! He said he picked badly in terms of Barr and Wray but I think he grossly underestimated what happened to him when he won in 2016. He had no administration and hobbled together RINOs and backstabbers and that only emboldened his enemies on the left and the right. And instead of consolidating his power he acquiesced his executive to the permanent deep state. Trump needs to shut this down NOW. Calling all Patriots we make the stand here and now and not 2025. Lawfare is NOT natural law and therefore should not be abided. IMO it’s Trump or WAR! And we are sitting here debating if Trump will be on the ballot!!! No he will not be and worse he will be imprisoned and then killed!!! Our movement will end and tyranny will rule for 1,000 years. Dark days lay ahead friends but if we don’t fight now there will be no sun for our children. We need strong allies and 90% of the world right now are against the US. Look to the east!
For people that have watched the video what is the time stamp in the video of Tapper saying “yada, yada, yada… can we just get this over with.”
It’s not part of the video, it was the look on Tappers face and Sundance writing the thought he’s insinuating Tappers is making.
Why People Can’t See the Truth
Yuri Bezmenov 1939- 1993 was a KGB
Informant and disinformation expert who defected to Canada. He is best remembered for his anti-communist lectures and books in the 1980s.
“Exposure to true information does not matter anymore.
t.me/endilluminati
“A person who is demoralized is unable to assess true information.
“The facts tell him nothing, even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents and pictures. …he will refuse to believe it…
“That’s the tragedy of the situation of demoralization.”
Once people’s morals have been debased…
• Education becomes indoctrination
• Entertainment becomes hypnotism
• Criminals become “leaders,” and
• Lies become truth.
If you read the comments no one bought what they attempted to sell and EVERYONE knows that something is off and offputting about Dishonest DeSanctis. I’m intrigued at his ability to double down on the lie that Florida did not shut down during the SARS-COV-2 pandemic. He must be a sociopath to think that if he just repeats the lie enough times, the people will believe him. Here’s the truth:
Floridians have questions about how Ron DeSantis is revising Florida’s 2020 and 2021 SARS-COV-2 history. Did you know:
1-RD created a Florida covid snitch hotline
2-Arrested a Pastor for holding in-person worship gatherings
3-27 businesses shut down & licenses suspended
4-non-mask wearing public school teachers were suspended (1 was arrested & convicted)
5-Allegedly RD crossed the state line to pay for a haircut in GA, a state that was open for business
6-Playgrounds were shuttered
7-Beaches were shuttered then later policed for “social distancing”
8-DeSantis is on video telling Floridians “this continues to be a pandemic of the unvaccinated”
9-Threatened business licenses
10-locale raised $24,500 on covid related fines
11-Hired David Kerner
12-Refused to fire Dr Alino Alinso but on the campaign trail he states that had he been POTUS in 2020 he would have Fired Fauci
13-Vaccine distribution was problematic. The hotline was continuously jammed and DeSantis was accused of favoring the wealthy neighborhoods. Health care workers weren’t allowed to schedule ahead of the rich (RD is on video aggressively challenging a reporter who complained about the hotline)
14-some FL government employees were mandated to take the jab to maintain employment
15-RD denied phase 2 for at least 2 FL counties
There were 7 governors who never shut down their states but FL wasn’t one of the seven:
1-utah
2-nevada
3-arkansas
4-north dakota
5-south dakota
6-wyoming
7-iowa
Thank you. I copied your list and saved it as “DeS BS” for future use with anyone who tries to defend him.
Hi, Miss Winnie – hope you’re having a great morning 🙂 May I point out there is an error in your list:
March 20, 2020
‘Arkansas governor orders gyms, restaurant dining rooms, bars closed’
Arkansas governor orders gyms, restaurant dining rooms, bars closed (arkansasonline.com)
And this example doesn’t touch on all the testing, distancing, masking, etc. insanity that went on.
Asa Hutchinson, now running for President!
Thank you for putting this out for everyone to see. The constant lies about how Florida didn’t shut down need to be brought out for all to see. Florida residents were cohursed and threatened – schools closed, no graduations, businesses closed, the jab was required, etc. How do I know? I’m a Florida Cracker
Don’t forget the interstate blockades on I-10 and I-95 at the borders to screen vehicles coming into Florida. I lived in Jacksonville in 2020 and went back and forth to Georgia frequently. The traffic was backed up for miles for several weeks before RON! lifted the checkpoint. Luckily, I knew the backroads coming back home.
Could you define “shut down their states” because I live in Las Vegas and indeed, we were shut down.
Only big box stores remained open. Casinos and hotels were closed. The Strip was a ghost town. It became a quiet, empty place to ride bikes, skate board, walk dogs, and jog.
I was furloughed from whenever the lockdowns began in March until the first few days of June.
It was horrible.
13-Vaccine distribution was problematic. The hotline was continuously jammed and DeSantis was accused of favoring the wealthy neighborhoods. Health care workers weren’t allowed to schedule ahead of the rich (RD is on video aggressively challenging a reporter who complained about the hotline)
On an aside this might have been a blessing in disguise and it offered more time to pass before people really saw what the bioweapon disguised as a vaxxine did to people.
If DeSantis is the Republican nominee , they will lose in a Landslide.
It’s apparent that DeSantis knew he would be the beneficiary of the deep state plan to take down Trump.
The Republican party will never win another presidential election if Trump is not the nominee. MAGA will see right through the bull$hit.
For low information voters and people stuck in an airport forced to listen to this propaganda con job.
It is Trump the Swamp rats hate. DeSantis looks like a possible way out of having to shill for the 4th branch’s fourth consecutive election rigging that will soon take place.
Everyone is helping Ron
This is CNN. Did anyone even watch?
the hands moving above the strings are visible. NEXT UP? The faces……..but we here at the Treehouse already know the puppet masters……..somewhat……Praise Jesus. The Lord’s hand is amazing, for letting us all see the goings on of these truly demonic people.
Not odd, uniparty and TDS run all decisions concerning the coming election.
Read an interesting article, it says all the government office buildings in DC are 80% empty. If the uniparty members are afraid of anything they should be afraid of their own decisions they have been making. Even the most deluded empty minded moron can now see through the uniparties con job on the American people. They built a phony economy with a 32 trillion dollar debt and growing
I liked this comment. It gets to the heart of what has gone wrong in our country. Thank you.
I spent some time with a conservative friend and he has been so brainwashed PDJT is a horrible person. He thinks j6 was an insurrection.
The media has a huge grip on the how PDJT has been isolated If folks like him can see the truth we win.
Till then we have a long row to hoe
Keep the faith and pray without ceasing
“Watching Jake Tapper softly interview Ron DeSantis with literally zero pushback, not a single challenge to a single response from DeSantis, is really odd – particularly on the heels of Tapper’s background allies advancing another round of indictments against President Trump. ”
I’m going shatter the earth up here with a rather novel proposition. At the end of the day, it’s a UniParty. Tapper’s ‘background allies’ are DeSantis’ background allies.
Sometimes red/blue optics, the most self-indulgent and expendable layer of the kayfabe cake, must be shunted aside when the UniParty perceives itself in the midst of existential distress, as it does at the moment.
THE GREAT MEATBALL RESET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOLOL 😆
I missed the warning. “The following presentation is performed by professional actors. No newsmen or politicians are seen.” Not sure who wrote the script, but it seems it was written by the Desantis camp. Also guessing more people saw it here than on CNN.
Every bit of that rehearsed. Wow.
CNN given orders to go easy on the Meatball
It matters. As for me, if it is not PDJT (or someone else who I would place trust in) I am going for RFK JR>
So when will the candidate start asking the right f’ing questions of the Charmin interviewer? Questions such as when are you going to investigate (your job) this political corruption on the Left? When are you going to start doing anything to help straighten out this politics that has America strangulating the country? When the Pa. Supreme Court decided to delay results from a Tuesday, to a Friday, where’s the investigation on it’s the Legislative Branch that decides, NOT the Judicial Branch? This is where America is in a death spiral! JMHO!
The worst part is I accidentally listened to motormouth Shapiro. I hate that guy. It was hate listening. He made this out to be some great victory. Said PDJT put the DOJ announcement out there to blunt neocon Ron’s interview success. It’s laughable. Said Florida was a purple state. I love that one. It’s been Republican since the Gingrich Revolution. What would make a state red if being red for thirty freaking years doesn’t make it red?
I will never, ever vote for another Republican after this election.
I saw this movie in 2007-2008.
McCain was on “Meet the Press” with Tim Russert at least twice a month it seemed.
Early on, it looked like Katie Couric “interviewing” Hillary Clinton.
McCain would get open end softball questions like “.. tell us your concerns about the extremists in your party, senator”. No favorite ice cream questions, but still.. It was bad.
But only until old Juan locked up the nomination. Then he was a no good SOB on Meet the Press until Russert died.
Actors on a stage.
I think his worthless life just passed before his eyes.
FUBAR!!
Look at this fat basturd salivating at the prospect of the best POTUS in history being taken out of the game. Can’t stand the sight of him or his whiny voice.
How could you stab someone in the back who saved you from irrelevance?
He’s nothing but a pissant.
They want anyone but Trump. The media will bend over backwards for anyone who isn’t Trump. With that said, at least Hollywood is taking the Summer off and if Barry Diller’s prediction comes true, this self-inflicted dry spell for funding the DNC machine could continue well past the Fall and perhaps signal a more permanent end to the movie/TV industry. Would you care? I don’t.
I’m actively routing for the TV and movie industry to collapse
“An Oddly Demure Jake Tapper Interviews Ron DeSantis“, at least until the General election.
They don’t want RFK, Jr., that’s for sure.
