I doubt this guy is going to come in second place, maybe third; yet there’s a possibility he could even drop to a devastating fourth. The short answer about why is in this closing message. The Florida governor shows who he is.
Giving his closing message to Iowa voters, Ron DeSantis attacks Donald Trump by saying, “if you kiss the ring, he’ll say you’re wonderful. You can be the strongest, most dynamic successful Republican and conservative in America, but if you don’t kiss that ring, then he’ll try to trash you.” This comes after Ron DeSantis was desperate in 2018 and likely to lose the Florida governor race to a drug fueled porn addict, so his team begged Donald Trump for assistance.
American voters are not stupid. The labeling and attacking do not work when it is full of fraud, sanctimony and hypocrisy. That said, this is also why DeSantis has very few friends and even fewer endorsements amid those in the Florida delegation who know him best. WATCH:
.
You know what the strange thing is…. I doubt strongly that Ron DeSantis has any idea just how much damage he has done to himself with this campaign. The echo-chamber around DeSantis is so necessarily isolating, only after he drops out will he personally begin to absorb just how small, pathetic and insignificant he has become.

I just wonder if he really is going to hang it up or will he just go on and continue to knock President Trump for the rest of the time until he gets the nomination. Then Trump can tell him to pound sand little man.
DeFunctus doesn’t have money. His donors are clearly scuttling him. He did/does what he is paid to do, and as they pay less and less, he will matter less and less. My prediction is that Casey will toss him like a cold turd one finds on the front porch.
The window dresser got in the race because the establishment and global donors promised to take Trump out. But DeSantis was just another tool to them. After the tool becomes dull, they toss it into the trash can and move onto the next one, in this case, Bird Brain.
DeSantis should have done what Youngkin is doing. Staying on the sidelines, supporting President Trump. If the globalist cabal took Trump out, DeSantis could have stepped in and get the Trump supporters’ vote. Instead, he’s destroyed his political career, just like Pence.
Windows licker.
Fixed it for you. Sorry couldn’t resist
Republican cross-dresser…fixed it for you Johnny…😂🤣😂
Like Sundance states so CORRECTLY – It is after he is forced to leave the race that he will be trying to make a head of lettuce out of the salad of his own shit tossing around in his empty skull.
Then he will be BEGGING for that participation trophy back
PS won’t be long before he changes the law in Florida so he can run again
He will lose. MAGA Nation (Florida office) will deliberately sabotage him.
Rhonda is finished in politics.
He’s going to go the Paul Ryan / Tom Daschle route.
Hopefully we can be rid of the turtle as well.
I’m for the Reaper!
Hopefully Rhonda’s tongue freezes on that glass tonight.
Small, petty and greedy encapsulates Ron’s character.
Please contact the RNC once Romney’s niece is gone. They are in desperate need of talent scouts and based on that statement you’ve got what it takes for the job!
I wouldn’t say that about Youngkin. He has 100 percent been waiting in the wings to jump in at moment’s notice as a stand-in for Rhonda.
I live outside D.C. in NoVa and my Youtube ads have been INUNDATED with constant ads for some PAC that sound essentially like Youngkin For President ads.
And they aren’t the ads you can click to skip. THEY MAKE YOU LISTEN TO THE WHOLE AD, LIKE DEMOCRAT ADS MAKE YOU DO.
So whose asses are you kissing, Ron boy?
He went over to the front-side to score more “whore points”.
I doubt that he will ever personally absorb how pathetic he is. After watching him this entire campaign, the man seems incapable of even the slightest amount of self-reflection. In my experience in dealing with people over many years, self-reflection is not something easily acquired or learned. Most people either have the ability for it or they don’t.
He thinks that he can fill ‘big shoes’ to stand tall, but he is nothing more than a useless, pathetic and sad loser.
The half empty boots proved it.
Those 👠 high heels are the only thing lifting up ‘helpme’🎶🎵RONdas campaign.
This has to be the longest, worst run
“Book Tour” in history.
That closing speech sounds like it was written by a Cruzbot. That was RDS fatal mistake – Cruzbots.
What is the big silence about his parents?
Are you talking about Cruz’s parents or DeSantis’s?
His Mom is a severe introvert, hates the spotlight. Seems they’ve scrubbed a lot of info on them. He’s probably ashamed of them, but more likely they are ashamed he stabbed Trump in the back.
Ron’s fatal mistake was stabbing President Trump in the back and thinking MAGA voters would flock to him.
Whiner party. Reservation of one. Your table is ready.
Desanctimonious was just another flashy flash in the pan.
Like Dan Crenshaw. And many others.
Once you see it in them, it can’t be unseen.
You can add Chip Roy and Massie to the list.
DeSantis has always been a GOPe puppet. I think Sundance was one of the first to point that out.
In his nearly year old campaign for the presidency he’s shown time and time again he’s pretty stupid and can’t think fast on his feet.
Presidential politics is the ultimate ball game and DeSwampis needs to be sent back to the farm. He will never ever come up to the bigs again!
It was said right here in the comments for a while before Sundance flipped on Ron.
I bashed Ron the Con in the Comments in the articles on here that praised him
And took a good beating for it.
I knew the Truth early by
Some of Ron’s actions hardly anyone would mention anywhere.
I pay attention to details and small things.
The clues are always there.
If RDS is the best example of officer-&-gentleman polish Annapolis Naval Academy can produce then we’d best be preparing for the worst as a nation, and as individuals. DeSantis looked good until he showed up in person.
.
No no no no no! He’s a graduate of Yale and Harvard, then joined Navy JAG (resume-building for his future political career) where he worked, inter alia, as Assistant Urinalysis Coordinator, or when deployed, advised sailors abroad if back home their car was towed or if they had missed a child support payment.
.
Funny.
I agree that the Naval Academy graduates a lot of crap, but they didn’t lay this one.
He did not go to the Academy
His wife looked good until she opened her mouth.
He could have had 2028 in his hands, regardless of this round. What a waste.
People better prepare their minds for a uniparty win in 2028 because, despite sundance’s optimism, I see no MAGA politicians with enough gravitas to win in 2028.
Are you just champing at the bit to gloom and doom?
Bettie needs new glasses.
Without the Florida legislature and the fact that Florida is dominated by Republican politicians at the county and city levels, DeSantis would not be where he is today.
He doesn’t wake up to another lawsuit every morning.
He has a conservative legislature that drops conservative bills on his desk.
He had conservative leadership in the lower levels of government implementing the policies derived from the legislature.
Oh wait…..he did a great job during the Hurricane. The people that respond to those storms have been doing it for decades. They don’t need anything, from anybody, other than for them to get out of the way and let them work. Some of them have been responding to hurricanes longer than DeSantis has been alive.
He’s nothing but a construct of the Eatablishment.
Yes, I watched him and was impressed during “Ian” as we had family on FL’s West Coast. However, the non-notice by the FL Governor of the invasion by the Feds of Mar-a-Lago, home of the immediate Past President made me sick. If it had been a Democrat President, I still would hope that the Governor of which-ever party would comment on it and castigate the perpetrators for such a foul incursion, regardless of political party. The thought that Gov DeSantis was tipped off to the raid will remain in my mind forever, legal-eagle that he supposedly is. No sympathy for being a loser. Stupid wife.
Don’t 0ay any attention to this. Probably his last speech as a candidate.
Some people want to separate good Governor Ron! from bad candidate Ron!, but let’s face it….who fakes being a bad guy?
Excellent point.
Sounds a lot like ILLary:
I coulda’ swore they said DeceptiCON RON! was a better loser.
How phony is Ron DeSantis? So phony that I’m sure he knows his 27 point victory over Charlie Crist in the Governor’s race was the result of rampant election/voter fraud, carried out to make his nomination as the Republican Presidential nominee look inevitable. Being the narcissist that he is however, he willingly played along. And now that his campaign is imploding, all anyone can say is good riddance. And Casey is cute, but she’s cut from the same narcissitic cloth. It will be good to be rid of both of them.
Don’t laugh. I am pretty sure Lindsay Graham won by fraud. Remember when he was panicking a month before the last election and then he won in a landslide?
Yes Sir, I do remember. He was on Hannity on the verge of tears saying that if he wasn’t re-elected Bernie Sanders would head the Senate judiciary committee. It didn’t take him long to abandon the voters who elected him.
He may not be kissing Trump’s ring, but what he IS kissing is much nastier.
Kissing?
Ron! will be a very weakened govern when he comes back and gets to working again.
He has also weakened the Republican Party in Florida by some of the “just for Ron!” legislation that was passed. Those who voted for it were played and will look foolish down the road.
Personally I’m embarrassed for the guy.
Don’t be he deserves the wrath of hell waiting for his return.
He doesn’t have to look any further than Chris Christie to know his future.
400 lbs?
Didn’t realize he’d lost that much weight.
Did any body else just hear “You can run the best campaign, You can even become the nominee and you can still have the election stolen from you” or was that just me thinking Ron went Hillary on us!!!! Because it really sounded like Hillary said it first!
He has lost all the goodwill he had before he started his second term.
Well deserved because he worked hard at it.
He had a chance for 2028.
But being an absent governor and having a narcissist as wife did not help his future.
He was good, till Mar a Lago
Ron Desantis just doesn’t have it. And whatever that it is, Trump has it.

CNN: “Ron Desantis doesn’t have it. And whatever ‘that’ is, that’s what Trump has”
Florida is in such bad shape DeSantis could not win reelection even if he was eligible.
Housing prices high.
Insurance all but impossible to get.
Major changes to HOA and condo rules requiring millions of dollars per building of price increases.
Property taxes ginormous.
New flood insurance requirements.
Low wages.
Speculators buying up everything, including trailer parks!
DeSantis could flip Florida blue.
.
Ohg… Don’t forget all the Blue State Dems he invited down — overcrowding and lib voting.
.
.
“…strongest, most dynamic successful Republican and conservative in America…”
What an asshole. It’s like he’s come to believe his original campaign propaganda from the never-Trumpers.
.
If you google Iowa Caucus, they are not showing Trump’s name.
Not true.
Sanctimonious only reads a script. He is a marionte projection of Jeb Bush working out his fewings.
Soon, he will be known as Ron DeSadness.
True dat !
Hilarious.
Casey was her Waterloo, after hello she just let go.
I pray for President Trump today
Polls are all
Over the place
He’s in front but I don’t want to see the others in 20%, 18% crap
That can’t be Ron DeSantis’s final selling point in Iowa, can it?
Well, at least a few good things come out for Ron during his run for his trouble,
(1) He is forced to lose some weight and it’s always a good thing;
(2) He now knows how to walk in boots with high heels inside;
(3) He might still have most of his $$$$ war chest, if he’s wise(r) and not spent it all on Casey’s wardrobe;
(4) He now knows he really couldn’t think on his feet, which is crucial for a politician if he still wants to have a career in this.
(5) Ron DeDantis is now a household name (good or bad) in the country;
(6) ???? (can’t think of more good things for Ron)
My ring is not what I would suggest RDS kiss.

A strong case against Vivek Ramaswampy.
PS – “brother” here is used figuratively/ideologically….
The shape of his elongated head, I swear he was a Siamese twin.
Kudos to Sundance. I thought exposing the splitter strategy in 2016 was some serious deductive reasoning. Sniffing out this guy? You know, some days I think I’m somewhat smart. And then you just realize there’s people operating on a completely different level.
DeSantis’ betrayal is the main reason he has low polls but his sour personality doesn’t help either.
It is rationally indisputable that P Trump elevated every ethnicity in some way during his Presidency (before COVID). His economic etc policies were intended to boost all Americans. This is Biden’s record and DeSantis is trying to aid the Dems by trashing Trump. It’s not helping his campaign. Despicable!
There are several live coverage sites for the Iowa caucus. Gateway Pundit has one site. Donald Trump, Jr. has another. I can’t find the RSBN coverage, if there is any.
DeSantis had a good 1st term as Governor of Florida.
Then he let it go to his head.
He’s acted the fool and in doing so he’s wrecked his chance of becoming President.
I could see IA shaking out, with fingers crossed, Trump, Haley, Ramaswamey, DeSantis.
This is a I wish you assholes never called me to assist with TDS moment.
Like he didn’t kiss the ring when he was begging for Trump’s endorsement.
Paul Ryan whispered sweet nothings in his ear, and he made a choice to follow them. He sealed his fate when he entered the race–his career is over.

Hateful man!
Well I am a forever President Trump supporter- alas RonD wililfail in the Iowa caucuses. It is a shame Ron was a great FL governor ( I do not live in FL) IDK – think Ron got bad advice to run at this point
I live in FL, he’s a brat. He never was liked too much but talked a good game while our conservative legislature did all the heavy lifting, they used his ambition to get some controversial bills passed. I suspect they knew this would happen.
