This is not a surprise. This is not disappointing. This is not unexpected.  This collapsing campaign, and the eventual complete campaign withdrawal, was entirely predictable.  Ron DeSantis and everything around him is a big fibber.

I have no sympathy whatsoever for the lying, conniving, scheming and Machiavellian organization, as the DeSantis operation now starts to publicly embarrass itself and become the target of scorn and ridicule.

Keep in mind, the Florida legislature was pressured by the governor’s office to change the political sunlight laws – just so DeSantis could obfuscate his travel expenses and hide that he was flying around the country on private jets owned by billionaires and multinational corporations.  They changed the damned law just because Casey and Ron did not want to fly commercial.  Let that sink in.

(Via Politico) Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign is expanding the number of staff it’s cutting to include more than a third of his payroll as the Florida governor looks to get his primary bid back on track.

The cuts, which were confirmed by advisers, will amount to a total of 38 jobs shed across an array of departments. They will include the roughly 10 event planning positions that were announced several weeks ago, in addition to the recent departures of two senior DeSantis campaign advisers, Dave Abrams and Tucker Obenshain.

“Following a top-to-bottom review of our organization, we have taken additional, aggressive steps to streamline operations and put Ron DeSantis in the strongest position to win this primary and defeat Joe Biden,” DeSantis campaign manager Generra Peck said in a statement. “Gov. DeSantis is going to lead the Great American Comeback and we’re ready to hit the ground running as we head into an important month of the campaign.”

The expanded cuts are the latest sign that the Florida governor’s team is pivoting to a slim-down operation amid concerns over their finances. The campaign announced it had raised $20 million during the second quarter of this year. But it had spent a good chunk of that money. Much of the sum it raised, moreover, came from donors who had given the maximum amount and could not give again.

According to recent federal filings, the campaign counted 90-plus staffers on its payroll through the end of June.

During a donor retreat in Deer Valley, Utah, last week, Peck acknowledged that the campaign had overspent in some areas and that further adjustments would need to be made. Advisers also outlined plans for DeSantis — who has been criticized for overseeing a bloated operation — to reposition himself as an insurgent underdog. They also said they would aim to reduce costs by doing smaller, more intimate events and cutting down its travel expenditures. (read more)

That “insurgent underdog” spin is particularly laughable when you consider that Karl Rove, the RGA, Paul Ryan, Ed Rollins, Jeb Bush and the entire apparatus of the approved republican coalition are aligned with Ron DeSantis.  What exactly is the party selected candidate running as an insurgent against?  👀

Karl Rove organized donors and held events with him.  The RGA gave him $20 million. Paul Ryan endorsed him. Ed Rollins organized PAC efforts for him, and Jeb Bush openly supported him.  Oh, but he’s “an outsider“…  lol 😂🤣😂 Just stop.

 

Meanwhile, Ron DeSantis is collapsing in the polls and Godzilla Trump is gaining power. [DATA HERE]
