PLEASE Do not miss the anniversary timing. NOTHING is accidental. EVERYTHING is connected. Today is the anniversary of the August 8th FBI raid in Mar-a-Lago; the event that was preplanned to kick off the 2024 DC national removal effort, which was timed with the DeSantis national launch. The remainder of this year’s GOPe forecast is cloudy with a chance of meatballs.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis continues to ignore his stewardship of the office he was entrusted to hold, as he fires his campaign manager and pulls his Florida chief of staff into the role.
Despite donor assurances just a week ago, campaign Manager Generra Peck has been removed from her position and replaced with James Uthmeier who serves as DeSantis’ chief of staff in the abandoned and collapsing state of Florida. Peck will remain with the campaign as a strategist and Uthmeier will take a leave of absence from his role in Tallahassee to take over the position of campaign manager.
While James Uthmeier has zero campaign political experience, he is a lawyer with specific economic and legal skills related to his former job at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce where he served as legal counsel. Given the nature of the reason for the Wall Street Sea Island group to support the 2024 DeSantis operation, having a multinational advocate in the role of campaign manager oddly does make sense. There are trillions at stake.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Ron DeSantis has replaced his campaign manager Generra Peck, in what is the third major reshuffling of his operations, a campaign spokesperson and a person familiar with the move confirmed to POLITICO.
Peck will be shifted to a role of chief strategist as part of the new order. Taking her place atop the campaign will be James Uthmeier, who has served as chief of staff in DeSantis’ governor’s office. In a text message, Uthmeier said the change was happening “ASAP.”
[…] One person close to the campaign, who was granted anonymity to freely discuss the issue, said that Peck’s removal, which was first reported by The Messenger, was “no surprise. Should have happened a few weeks ago.”
DeSantis’ campaign spokesperson, Andrew Romeo, also confirmed the staff moves in a statement, saying that “Uthmeier has been one of Governor DeSantis’ top advisors for years and he is needed where it matters most: working hand in hand with Generra Peck and the rest of the team to put the governor in the best possible position to win this primary and defeat Joe Biden.”
He added that David Polyansky, who worked with Never Back Down, the super PAC supporting DeSantis, will also move to the campaign.
[…] The person also described Uthmeier’s role as “CEO” of the campaign but who will rely on Polyansky — and Marc Reichelderfer, a veteran political consultant from Tallahassee — as “senior vice presidents” with national campaign experience. Ryan Tyson, a well-regarded pollster, is also expected to have an elevated role in the campaign.
[…] Uthmeier is taking an unpaid leave of absence from the administration to work on the campaign and is not resigning permanently from his job as chief of staff, according to the governor’s office. Alex Kelly, a former top deputy to DeSantis who was recently appointed to be the secretary of the Department of Commerce, will step in as acting chief of staff while Uthmeier works with the campaign, which operates out of an office building in Tallahassee.

I told readers in August of last year, almost exactly a year ago today, this message.
Very few people at the time wanted to believe it.
We are here because we discuss uncomfortable truths. We accept things as they are, and not as we would wish them to be.
Since the original innocuous tweet 48 hours ago, from a private account, which did not even use the name “Trump,” Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has been absolutely silent about the illicit FBI raid on the home of Florida citizen and former President Donald J Trump. DeSantis is showing us all who he really is; but are you willing to accept it?
The raid on President Trump’s home is a moment for all to stand and take a position. On the day after the raid, much like the entire DC Decepticon establishment, Ron DeSantis hid in the bunker and kept quiet. No tweets. No appearances. Nothing that would create a situation where he would have to enter this ‘time of choosing.’ This is what politicians do. This is what Nikki Haley does. Avoiding controversy is not what war time leaders do.
On the second day after the raid, again with the politics of the issue as the dominating consideration, DeSantis releases a recording of a statement as Florida schools begin to open for the fall semester. Again, avoiding any situation where he would be asked to take a position on the raid. Please take note and pay attention. These are the moments that matter, the examples that show the true intents and motives of political leaders.
DeSantis is doing what he has been advised to do.
The silence of DeSantis is deafening.
DeSantis’ supporters, cheerleaders, GOPe promoters and sycophants will ignore it, but deep in their psyche they know what I am saying is true.
Ron DeSantis is a good governor for the state of Florida and has many attributes that make him important for a host of reasons, but this is not a war-time general. Ron DeSantis is a politician.
Accept things as they are, not as you would wish them to be. Because this is the same man that many people would select to face the greatest enemy to our republic. DeSantis is showing us right now that he does not possess the courage, desire in scale, or ability to fight the enemy we face in this battle.
DeSantis is a good finisher, a good maintainer, a good and solid ally who operates well when surrounded by the fortune of an aligned legislative body; but he is not yet the weapon that can stop the corrupt UniParty enemy within our republic.
There are moments that show the character of the politicians in the club apparatus. The pathetic and embarrassing Ted Cruz speech at the 2016 RNC nominating convention was one of those moments. The response, or lack thereof, to an illegitimate FBI raid on the personal home of the leader of the republican party is yet another.
Accept things as they are, you will be far less disappointed later on.
I would like to thank Sundance and EVERYONE here who helped to tank DeSantis. A lot of people here were slow in coming to the conclusions and I hold no disrespect to them for their delays… letting go of a personal belief, when you realize it’s false is VERY hard to do. It’s a skill that one must learn and practice to get good at it.
But we are, I am convinced, a big part of the reason DeSantis’s campaign is crapped out. For that I thank you all!
FOX went all-in on DeSantis, and too many people still believe FOX is news and not full-on propaganda.
It’s nauseating how FAUX news looks for excuses to make the meatball something he is not.
I comment over there pointing that out and still people have drunk the Kool-Aid.
FAUX news is the Republican establishment mouthpiece.
His silence when Mar a Logo was raided sealed it for me.
His silence created a loud roar from us MAGA Deplorables.
That was an egregious mistake.
^^^^
Paul Ryan, Karl Rove and the Bushes support for DeSantis sealed it for me. That is a red flag.
Right back at ya Daniel
R.D.
Davy Jones’ locker is going to start filling up quick.
When were regularly escaping from the peoples republic of lil mikee dewhine to Florida during covidiousy compared to dictator dewhine desantis wonderful.
How sad to learn of desantis’ feet of clay…
Same here – so nice in 2021 compared to California, a real escape to sanity from absolute insane stupidity. What a drag, I thought he was the real deal. This site is priceless for navigating all the illusions and manipulations
We’re all in this together!
Remember to keep praying!!!
Every day we pray for President Trump.
How does a campaign hide the fact that DeSanis is Uniparty now that the word is out?
I believe so ensconced in their Uniparty construct are they, none of them, including Ron, realize the walls they’ve built around their operations are transparent for us…though it seems not for them who are on the inside.
Or as a commenter on Zerohedge quipped, the campaign has reloaded so many times, they’re out of ammo.
So RdS can be dubbed Short Round?
Works for me😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
ROFLOL!!! Especially with his lifts!!
Oh Be Ron can no be?
You might say he is contained within his silo.
What’s in a silo?
Fermented plant material.
I crack myself up 😉
And me, Mycroft…😂
Sometimes they make it too easy.
For a meatball to be properly cooked, it has to simmer in its’ sauce until done.
And we must remember meatballs are generally 50% meat and 50% filler. It’s that filler that people don’t want to believe is important.
Actually, a great meatball is 2/3rds ground round, 1/3 pork and stale sour dough or french bread soaked in milk, squeezed ….can’t tell you how much of the latter. I eyeball it. There’s minced garlic, a dab of Italian dry herbs, some fresh basil (not too much), RAISINS, cooked very, very slowly in good quality olive oil on very low so the oil doesn’t burn, fried in heavy iron skillet. Before placing the meatball in the skillet, infuse the oil with some chopped garlic that stays there only a short time so it doesn’t burn, remove.
Our Italian family (from Napoli) has always put raisins–not too heavy of course–in the meat mixture. When people first hear this they say, “Oh, REALLY?” quite skeptical that raisins belong anywhere in an Italian meat-a-ball.
They change their minds when they take a bite. By the way, we don’t make small meatballs, pretty big ones.
When they’re removed from the skillet, they are JUICY and have a wonderful dark and crunchy crust on them.
I know of only a few people who have heard of this, but it’s a
I hate you, in a good way.
Hungry now . . .
Excellent recipe. I’m definitely saving this one. Thank you!
‘,but it’s a…………….??? ‘
TL please don’t keep me hanging on!
Stewing in his own juices…not quite done yet.
But he will be.
Cue the scene from Loonie-Tunes or some similar purveyor of animated insights. . .
the character loading up furniture against the door, to keep out the Big Bad Wolf or perhaps Deputy Dawg . . . someone we see is handing him furniture and then we realize it is the very one that he is trying to keep out! We little kids could see it all happening!
Good one!
My mental image of the DeStablishment campaign right now is deck chairs being shuffled around, and the band tuning up for their final set…
…All while Iceberg MAGA has already hit below the water line..
Haha!!! Which reminds me….
In British pantomime fairy tales the acting is purposely outlandish.
So when the antagonist is “unseen” by the protagonist but in full view of an audience filled with little children, those wee bairns all shout “He’s right behind you!!!!!”
Sort of like the DeSantis campaign. We in the audience watching this political pantomime can clearly see what his handlers and donors do not.
Good fun 😁
They used that bit in Marvel’s Captain America origin story, kids in the audience screaming to alert him Hitler was sneaking up on him through the ranks of dancers on stage.
One of the insidious effects of the “trans” mental illness, Maquis, is that the British Christmas pantomime tradition where men dressed up as ladies in productions like Little Red Riding Hood and Cinderella to the joy and laughter of all who attended sell out performances every year has been destroyed forever.
But then that’s what they do, isn’t it. Hijack and turn to smut anything that is innocence. Those productions were such fun, and we mustn’t have any of that.
I will never forgive the evil who brought that about as a bonus for their immoral perfidy.
Yes. It used to be “just for fun” when men dressed up as ladies” in comedy sketches and such. Now, it has a filthy, smarmy, degenerate feel to it.
I despise them for it, Dantes.
They hijacked the beautiful rainbow, God’s reminder of his promises and covenant with us.
I have set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth: When I bring clouds over the earth, and the bow is seen in the clouds . . . I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant.” (Genesis 9:13-14,16)
They mock Him in everything, Turtle. I know it’s cliche, but they don’t understand how well it will not end…for them.
Cloudy with a chance of meatballs. God that’s funny. FRDS!
Title of a kids book too….
And a kids movie, complete with sequels.
I know it’s crude but; “You can’t polish a tu_rd”
Actually Mythbusters proved you can.
but you can roll it in glitter
That was Casey’s job.
LOL!
tuRD
Piss off RDS. You will fade into the ether of irrelevance. Unfortunately you chose to serve mammon.
Actually Mythbusters proved you can.
Sundance, you were so very right about DeSantis in your post of one year ago. In retrospect, you were positively kind to him.
He would do well to take your advise to heart himself “Accept things as they are, and you will be far less disappointed later on.”
Greed and the chance at power destroy everyone that embraces it. Too bad he didn’t realize he would have had no power, his backers would have seized that from him.
I am of the belief that the GOPe has told RD about Trumps future problems and this is why he entered the race. He may be greedy have a big narcissistic personality but I don’t believe he is stupid.
And yes, it’s as if Sundance has a time machine that lets him view the future. I didn’t want to think badly of DeSantis but he ripped off his mask and outed himself
Been saying that for years – time traveler extraordinaire!
How could he not realize that he’s been rejected by the American electorate . The only possible way to save this campaign is to remove the meatball .
i don’t think he is there to be “accepted” by anyone.
he is there as the backup in case the QB gets injured. and the GOP is sending the goons to be sure the QB gets injured.
He’s in a bubble at this point.
As a Floridian I can attest that “abandoned and collapsing state of Florida” is really damn true.
I’m up in Maine and haven’t heard what’s going on in FL other than the sky rocketing price of homeowners and vehicle insurance. Please enlighten me!!!!
They’re using private forms of eminent domain. Engineering inspections. For profit HOAs. Along with targeted staggering Insurance burdens to basically steal desirable property for redevelopment anywhere in the state. Combined with having the welcome mat out for all those people coming across the border in Texas, and building seven story luxury apartments for them at every major intersection, this place is devolving very quickly.
That sounds like the very worst of Crony Capitalism!
Good friend of mine just sent me this article a couple minutes after I posted. Very relevant.
https://therealdeal.com/magazine/national-august-2023/condo-buyout-bonanza/
Interesting
Many thanks for the info!!!! What was the term used by politicians to get rid of downtown slum areas…”community redevelopment” or something like that. I get it! Similar stuff happening all along the northeast Atlantic coast. What used to be seasonal cottages/homes are being bought up, demolished and McMansions built, now that sewer systems have replaced the old time dry wells and septic systems. Maine democommie governor has announced she wants to import 75K foreign born workers to Maine by 2029. Never mind we currently have a housing shortage and can’t find accommodations for the 300 illegal “new Mainers” currently living in the Portland civic center on cots. That is 5% increase of our population and doesn’t include the associated women and children possibly attached to the 75K workers. It’s the classic Cloward and Piven strategy…overwhelm the system. Can traditional families and values survive???? IDK. God’s will be done.
Here’s one they did in April. How cheap do you think engineering firms are these days? A hedge fund could buy every one in the state, couldn’t they? And now they are God. Your building is no good. You got 24 hours to get out. Try to find a follow-up story on that condominium. You won’t. The media covers for this. I know the playbook. I’ve got friends going through it. Now starts the never ending special assessments in bringing it up to code. And the building will be in a state of destruction until every resident folds. Going to take years and millions of dollars.
https://wsvn.com/news/local/miami-dade/final-day-to-move-out-for-north-bay-village-condo-residents-after-building-deemed-unsafe/
Yeah, they’re trying to condemn an enormous block of Hollywood Florida as blighted, even though it’s not. Literally a couple square miles. I’ll see what I can dig up about it
I didn’t even know about this one. ” residents mixed.” That’s funny.
https://www.local10.com/news/local/2023/05/24/residents-mixed-over-development-proposal-at-emerald-hills-country-club-in-hollywood/
So how much of this is legit? I remember the condo building that collapsed all of a sudden, in FL…can’t remember where this happened but within the last year or two. Shoddy construction in the 1980s, etc to facilitate the blue hairs moving in from up north, looking for respite from the cold weather and a cheap place to spend their “golden years”. It happens not only in FL but also AZ and other warm climates. I don’t blame any of those folks, had I been younger, I might have been one of them. But they were taken advantage of by fly-by-night developers who never did any subsequent maintenance on those condo complexes. So now said complexes are falling apart. I’m not doubting your info. Just wondering if there might be a mix of causes contributing to the use of eminent domain, in which the landmark case was from Connecticut…the democommie state I fled when I moved to Maine. There is no “safe” place left.
Ouch!!! Glad our Lion, and Sundance, outed him.
Or unattainable. Isn’t that enough?
100%. just posted wondering does anyone know who is running our state? this is ridiculous. we are one hurricane away from having NO insurance companies here!
I am interested in this comment also. How is Florida “collapsing?” I was thinking of moving there but don’t like what I am hearing from sundance and yourself. Please explain.
I’m recently a new resident to central Florida and don’t see any collapse around me.
I am not in FL but friends are. I can just (generally ) add that they said property taxes and electricity have skyrocketed in the last year.
Most importantly, we need to make clear at all times that everyone who went out on a limb in support of the Meatball, will now have that limb sawed out from underneath them.
They go to the back of the MAGA bus where they will be ignored, and useful only insomuch as they have a vote.
They are not a valued part of the coalition, and we neither respect them, nor particularly care to hear what they have to say going forward.
Recall when PDJT let folks know they had a date certain to endorse him or be shut out?
When he said those getting on Team Meatball would be shut out of his next Administration?
Lots of crying to come.
GOOD!!!
Not sure they will even get on the MAGA bus.
Here in COLO, with the state’s former GOP leadership fighting the new, as well as constantly dissing the ElPaso
county GOP, they will get on any clown car with “electable” GOP candidates. And those candidates, thrust
on us last election, LOST.
I see the same thing in CO that you do, from Arapahoe. But we have more energy and determination than the former leadership, and I think we are tiring them out already and we have barely gotten started!
I hear Asa Hutchinson just ordered up a fleet of Yugos.
I haven’t ventured on Legalinsurrection web site for months…Holy cow they are rabid RDS supporters-you should read their take on why he is failing–its a Dem strategy doncha know , to promote DJT because they would rather run against DJT. Thats why RDS is failing lol–it’s a Democrat plot to promote Trump. Holy cow college WTF they teaching up there at Cornell
They should remember that while they are pointing their finger at someone else, there are three pointing back at them.
I dropped them months ago.
They having destroyed whatever credibility they had by endorsing RDS and attacking anyone who doesn’t. They had/have no answer about RDS appointing a Palm Beach County democrat, Dave Kerner, as executive director of the Florida Dept. Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, which oversees driver licensing in Florida and can directly effect voter rolls. Every time one brings up RDS failings they try to compare it to Trump but fail to realize that that is comparing lead to gold. A governor has totally different responsibilities than a President. I wrote them off in May. RDS is not only a wall street owned RINO but he is also owned by ES&S, Dominion, Hart Civic et al the voting machine companies. Florida’s elections are rife with fraud and the voting machines are basically uncertifiable. Yet nothing from RDS about this. He is being sued in Leon County in Scott vs. DeSantis relating to the lack of voting integrity in Florida’s voting machines and the outright fraud that has occurred in 2020 and 2022 state elections.
The moment our 2022 red wave was fizzled out of existence everywhere EXCEPT Florida, I took note of it as an unexplained and rather worrisome anomaly…
…But it took sundance to fill in the blanks on it.
DeStablishment was given just a touch of fraud help from behind the scenes GOPe handlers to make him look good for later.
IMHO of course – but, change my mind…
Thanks for that. A lot of us who live elsewhere have been wondering about the specifics of his Florida Failures.
One thing: Having someone move from a job at the (U.S.?) Chamber of Commerce to anyone’s political campaign pretty much screams RINO, doesn’t it?
It screams Globalist, Corporatist, Reverse Fascist, I could go on . . . but yes, it’s bad.
Agree, and was the very background attribute that fills in a lot more data points.
Don’t know what they’re teaching, but it sounds like complete idiocy!
Same thing over at all the Salem Media sites… Townhall, Red State, PJ Media, Hot Air, etc.
It’s a GOPe constructed narrative that the Left is DYING for Trump to be the nominee & the Left is deathly afraid of DeFraud.
So much Trump hatred from supposed “conservatives”…makes me wanna puke.
DeFraud, his GOPe Big Money donors & the measly 15% grassroots support he has…was hoping the Covid/Fauci issue was going to make MAGA abandon Trump.
A lot of paid RON BOT ACCTS bc they’re trying to make it seem as if DeFraud has organic and widespread grassroots support…but St Ron’s campaign filings don’t lie.
It just might be that it’s not the campaign staff. It’s the candidate.
the dogs don’t like the dog food
It’s not the campaign staff Rob!.
It’s the candidate.
True, but only the donors can fire the candidate.
“It’s not the girl, Ray. It’s the building.”
Ron Meatball sat on a wall Ron Meatball had a great fall. All Carl Roves horse’s and all Bushies men couldn’t put the meatball together again.
He’s gravy forever………
ROFLOL!!!! That’s hysterical!!!
I guess he needs a better “minder” , they will keep trying , I guess . Rereading that early Post , S was , perhaps , overly generous in assessing the Governorship of Ron – as we see now , he is definitely more of an ambitious, opportunistic weasel than first thought of , willing to let Florida voters swing in the wind in a Miami minute so to speak …
That’s an insult to weasels, imho.
That’s good
It’s not enough that DeSanctimonius has abandoned the people of FL and the responsibilities of his governorship … but that he is now vacating all of his support staff as well?
He PROMISED he wouldn’t do this … right? And for what? To challenge the overwhelming FAVORITE to win the Republican nomination? Yeah … there must be $Trillions at stake.
I remember in an interview he said he’d reign in the out of control DOJ. His quote was something like, “They can’t be allowed to just show up at someone’s house and conduct a raid.”
Instantly I thought, wait a minute aren’t you Gov of Florida? Didn’t you allow the raid on President Trump’s home on Mar-A-Lago? That was on your watch you moron.
Maybe that’s a good name for him, Mor-Ron!
Good knickname!!!
Correction David Polyansky does have experience working on the Scott Walker and Ted Cruz campaigns. I posted it in the daily politics discussion this morning.
Failure incorporated
Those campaigns are all flavors of the same popsicle, aren’t they?
I just posted that question before I started reading this thread.
My question is answered.
Thank you.
Floridians need to start a recall. If not, you are complicit.
Earthlings must demand the end of the alien apocalypse. If not, you are complicit.
I looked into it. They don’t accept it in Florida. The worst part is when he crashes and burns he comes BACK because of the law he had rewritten. Who wants to be governed by a bitter lame duck gov!!!??
I guess the silver lining is Ron doesn’t even own a home or any kind of real estate in Florida – or anywhere else – so he really might just leave the state.
LOL that is right! sad but true. Man been living on tax payer dimes for years now…
Oh, now THAT would really help the meatball’s campaign—and probably tick off Casey.
Teeeheeeee!!!!
The narrative is people are exhausted of talk about and news about President Trump. Half of Republicans won’t vote for President Trump, if he is in jail, so there needs to be an alternative. Not my narrative but the one that creeps into my world from tidbits from the MSM. I have no doubt the Lawfare DOJ and the MSM want to wear down Trump supporters or potential supporters. And so does the GOP mega donors and their candidates.
I have every doubt that the efforts to wear down MAGA will fail, even the ones that creep in here.
Yup!
https://www.tiktok.com/music/original-sound-7243805117592488746
In my opinion, resilience and skepticism are going to be the dominant legacy of the covid scam for a sizeable minority of voters.
Won’t happen. The Trump base will not defect.
Absolutely will NOT!!!
https://www.tiktok.com/music/original-sound-7243805117592488746
I’ve heard the opposite, ea time they mention US GOVT v T, he gains more votes. Put it on TV, and there’s a swarm. What do you think is going to happen when they post his mugshot? He was arrested. You ever wonder why it hasn’t posted yet? When they do, it will be Ron who?
💁♀️
The corporate media has a nasty habit of lying. Esp about PDT. Esp about his popularity — and MAGA’s popularity. They love to pretend the huge “silent majority” spread across the heartland (and all over “blue states,” which are really red states w/ blue urban areas) is a “fringe element,” heh.
“After I just endorsed him for governor. “- President Trump incredulous, speaking in New Hampshire after Ron! responded “No comment” when asked if he will run for President.
When a candidate doesn’t really stand for anything, and is just a sort of Frankenstein’s Monster comprised of cobbled together focus groups, surveys, mega-donor wish lists (the name Hillary comes to mind), it eventually shows, even to those paying only marginal attention.
Sounds like a shift has happened in who is winning the donor contest. That is really what the election is about, after all.
It’s about a shift to small donors.
But I really hope it becomes a realization by big donors that their grand scheme is showing its ankles big time.
Once their game is transparent, they will never get the same return on investment again.
Floundering campaign that is too far gone and now you see some disarray among the Establishment and Elites who are starting to venture off in different directions! Murdoch and his FOX operation keep prodding Glen Youngkin and looking closely to pivoting to Tim Scott! Robert Bigelow threatening to pull out and shut off the money spicket and a couple of others who have indicated they too are moving on!!! His campaign could be easily tapped out and devoid of cash by the end of September!!! 😝😝😝😝😝
Yep, Meatball is going to be taking the bus to Wisconsin for the “loser debate.”
What happened to Steve Cortez, the traitor?
He’s probably still slamming back the scotch and drying his tears on his whiteboard.
He is sitting back laughing his ass off because he probably got close to a Million dollars in OLIGARCH MONEY FOR BASICALLY DOING NOTHING!!! 😝
Ronny should give up and go back to leading Florida. If he’d made a mistake on one thing, the people might forgive him, maybe even two things, but he has so many lies and so many establishment insiders behind him, we know what he really is..another neo-con Trotskyite.
It’s looking like we can do without any of the “elected” and non elected in Tallahassee.
Sure is nice that they changed the laws so these public servants can just do what ever and not lose their “jobs”.
Who’s the next to go when Da Meatball becomes the Single Digit Midget?
Maybe now Ronnie will saddle up with the Wrinkle free Kid from Jersey and they can ride off into the sunset.
I do find it interesting they made the Wrinkle free Kid go to Ukie land to pick up his own kick back loot.
Krispy kream Christie or my new nickname for him…Flabber Jabber.
Trying to be kind, but what do these DeSantis folks bring to the table? A college degree, maybe a Master’s and/or an MBA/J.D., and . . .? Zero – as in accomplishments in life.
Who’s their Daddy? Who’s their Mommy? Grandad? Cousin/Great Uncle Neil? And how many degrees are they removed from the lizards that infest Washington, D.C.? As the country sinks into a bad place, these questions need to be asked.
They bring nothing but ideations of grandeur. They think JFK’s Camelot really existed. They’re delusional.
empty suit
noun : an ineffectual executive
See:
^^^^ GOOD ONE !!! ^^^^
It is not enough to simply beat DeSantis. He must be destroyed thoroughly. His kind must not rise again.
I see what you did there. 😉
Heh.
Yeah, funny how that kind of talk is only used about one person and sound almost ridiculous applied to anybody else, isn’t it? (because it IS ridiculous, the trash-talk they’ve put on PDT for all these years…)
I think your original post didn’t age as well it it could have. Ron “Meatball” DeSanctimonius (please clap!) is not a good governor. So much since then has shown what a horrible person he is.
Sundance was being kind, and no one knows more than he how much of a scam the entire Governorship of Runt DeSanctus has actually been.
He moved the needle, more than anyone, was first out of the gate by a long shot, and I imagine it would have been less successful if he had cited what we’ve all come to know since.
Too much of anything at once can be a poison, even truth; milk then meat.
In the abstract, RDS had a clear path to the presidency in ’28: become Trump’s VP candidate, with Trump running out of NJ rather than FL. Win or lose in ’24, RDS becomes “the chosen one” in ’28.
So, why throw it all away? Occam’s Razor applies here. RDS must have an ironclad guarantee in hand that Trump will never become the Republican nominee. Indictments, revised primary delegate selection rules, conspiring with the Dem machine to harvest primary ballots, whatever it takes. The swamp wants Newsom/female up against RDS/female.
Look for massive Dem crossover vote for RDS in open primary states.
The crossover vote will go for Ramaswamy. He is a liberal Democrat in disguise. He is morphing right before our eyes as we speak
I am talking about organized voting. It is in GA, PA, MI and NV that I expect to see what amounts to ballot harvesting for RDS.
Also in not open states. Lots of Gorilla Republicans, democrats registered as republicans, just to vote in the primaries.
Good point. It would be useful to have guidelines, state by state, for such things as the formalities of changing party registration. If it can be done at the polling place, this would be another way to collect votes for a given candidate.
Perhaps desantis’ assignment is to be a spoiler and not a winner?
Uniparty doesn’t really care who wins.
Correct. Independents can throw a monkey wrench into the executive machinery (Ventura here in MN, Perot in ’92), but it is much, much harder to impact legislatures because of the numbers involved.
Ironclad guarantee is only until somebody gets punched in the face, I’ve been told.
The simplest way to eliminate Trump is to end winner take all primaries. This would make it difficult for any given candidate to secure a first ballot nomination, and put the nomination in the hands of the so-called party elders.
Those efforts are getting busted in real time.
I believe the operative terminology is Loomered.
And leave out an opportunity to push the button for Robert Kennedy? Are you sure about that?
Yes.
Well, I’m not. Lol. I live in an open primary State….I’ve never seen a huge amount of cross-over voters. Dems don’t want to take a chance on any down-ballot Republican candidates being voted in.
Maybe Ron should just push the chairs off the deck, instead of constantly rearranging them. The SS DeSantis is gonna run on the rocks regardless.
It’s on fire from the massive burn rate and tipping over from the third of the staff thrown overboard already.
..the party’s over…
In the words of the late “Dandy” Don Meredith on MNF…
“Turn out the lights….The Party’s over !!”
Ron just went from 4/1 to 9/1 to be the Rep. nominee. Lol Same as Vivek. Trump is -270. Ron is done.
Chef Boy RD in a can?
Even Madison Avenue can’t sell a low quality product if a better product is available……
And thanks to Sundance you now know how the sausage is made and the ingredient list reads like tripe on a stick.
President Trump is still squeaky clean so expect the lies and lawfare….but I repeat myself, to increase.
The question now becomes simply this……will the voting public, allow by their inaction, President Trump to be taken out with manufactured dirt.
I always think of the ingredients list and the nutrition label as the only two gummint regulations I can actually get behind.
Not that they can’t be defrauded and I’m quite sure they are these days..
Didn’t Teddy Roosevelt’s populism include the start of that type of food regulation, inspired by Upton Sinclair’s book (forget the name – we read it in high school) about what was going into the food?
Yes.
The Jungle.
By Upton Sinclair.
Socialist who missed the mark with this book and instead raised concerns about low quality meats out of Chicago meat packers.
Florida resident here: Chief of Staff now campaigning with Guv. Just who IS running my flipping state? Hello? Bueller? anyone???
The same people that were working the RdS puppet show all along.
Be interesting I suppose to see the strings, but his Governorship has been a scam all along.
Oh, the Mar-a-Lago raid. My first thought was Frank Figliuzzi and the foolishness about the 8th letter of the alphabet.

“The remainder of this year’s GOPe forecast is cloudy with a chance of meatballs.”
Thank you, Sundance . . . for all of the above! 🙂
Like one of the ship’s Dad sunk in WW2, the DeSkunk Maru is headed down, deep sixed!.
Ronnie, overwhelmed by the number of individuals he has to please, finds himself firing staff he feels are not helping with his run for president. It hasn’t occurred to him, that it may not be his staff that are the problem. Look in the mirror ronnie, you’re an uninspiring, weak, one dimensional slug. Stay in Florida, you will never be able to compete with the real President Trump.
Do you think Runt is running his own campaign?
I rather suspect that his owners are largely in control of the entire operation.
Same people paying him to break America already directed his breaking of Florida.
Even back full time as Governor after his Presidential aspirations expire the same people will be directing him, only they will be wanting to extract maximum value after their wasted dollars on this campaign, so I honestly don’t see him chastened and honest and seeking to redeem himself, even if he wanted to.
stunned yesterday when I THINK I heard Ed Rollins toss RDS under a bus???
Rollins, who was shilling and swearing RDS will win for the last yr?
And I THINK I heard him say RDS was a loser?
Looks like Ed still wants to work as he mentioned the strength of President Trump?
OR, I just might be crackin up 🙂
Or maybe his buddy Lou Dobbs sat Ed down for a talk…
RDS fired a woman, let’s give him the treatment that Prseident Trump would receive, “Misogynist !”.
The fundamental issue is with the candidate, not the campaign aparatus.
The secondary fundamental issue is the candidate.
The primary fundamental issue adheres to any one running against PDJT, they seek to eliminate our Champion.
Are we ready for the double down from Faux News trying to pull the DeSantis chestnuts from the political fire. It should be entertaining as hell. The entire bunch of script readers, from morning to nite, beclown themselves trying to sell a complete phony, DeSantis, to an ever shrinking audience that sees through the curtain.
Can’t wait for the DeSantis-Newsom debate sell job. And with Hannity as debate monitor, the three stooges act is complete. Time to reassemble the Sea Island cast for a do over.
Oooooh, you’re right. Talk about vanilla, topped with vanilla, and then sprinkled with more vanilla….Bland as heck.
I will just about eat my hat if Ron is even still in contention and they choose to go through with it. It’s four months away and still two months before any voting.
DeFraud will be broke & out of the race by November 8.
There won’t be a DeFraud/Gruesome debate.
The upcoming debate on Faux, I expect Vivek to wipe the floor with DeFraud.
Neither one is America First, however.
As I read about yet another major reorganization of the RDS uniparty establishment-driven campaign, it occurred to me that the same morons advising RDS were also advising President Trump. Hence, we got Pence Iscariot, Bondo Bill Barr and countless other useless specimens giving the illusion of patriotism.
There is an upside. These pathetic people know we’re wising up to them, and they have to live every day with the nagging thought that anyone they see on the street or in a public place will call them out. The odds of this happening grows daily. Must suck to be a coward.
The question is:
Was STEVE CORTEZ a plant from Trump in the Rino Ronnie campaign? To let Rino Ronnie, know how it feels to be back stabbed.
That would be a pretty big bridge to burn, in the eyes of MAGA, to make a move like that, but…just when you think you’ve heard it all, a new twist is exposed. 🤣
The people don’t like you, DeSanctimonious. You are a fraud. Go back to Florida, do your Governor work then fade away. You are done.
