Geee Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Trump goes nuclear on 'average' Gov. DeSantis in fiery screed Former President Donald Trump unleashed a fiery screed Thursday evening critical of Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), who triumphed in his reelection campaign this week and is increasingly seen as a strong candidate to challenge Trump for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. In a statement sent by Trump's Save America PAC to his supporters, the former president belittled DeSantis as an "average" Republican governor with "great Public Relations." Trump took credit for DeSantis's 2018 victory that earned him his first term as governor, criticized DeSantis's response to COVID-19, and revived the nickname "Ron DeSanctimonious" in what appears the most extreme escalation between the two Florida Republicans to date.

Geee Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Youngkin, like DeSantis, faces Trump's fury “Young Kin (now that’s an interesting take. Sounds Chinese, doesn’t it?) in Virginia couldn’t have won without me,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social, his proprietary social media network. It is not clear why he falsely insinuated that Youngkin was of Chinese ancestry (the origins of the governor’s name are Germanic), but Trump has a record of rhetoric against China and Chinese people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenn Youngkin on Trump Attack: ‘I Do Not Call People Names’ When you have lost Winsome Sears... David Strom November 12, 2022 Winsome Sears is a superstar, and a key supporter of Trump when he needed her. Currently the Lt. Governor of Virginia under Glenn Youngkin, she rose to great prominence during her campaign as a true MAGA voice and a leader of black women who supported Trump. She was a true believer and exceptional spokesman for the former president, and also now a critic. She is not abandoning Trump over his criticism of Youngkin. In fact, she wasn’t defending the governor at all, as Trump’s attack on the Virginia governor came after, not before, Sears revealed that she was moving on from Trump. Her motivation was Trump’s failure to galvanize support for candidates during the election. (Snip) Trump deserves respect for his accomplishments and is owed the thanks of all of us for what he did right. But he doesn’t deserve loyalty from us that he does not return either to his allies or the cause we all serve. If DeSantis–my choice as a candidate–becomes a losing general then I will look for yet another leader to carry on the cause. The conservative cause is far larger than one man, and deserves more loyalty than a single person can ask for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron DeSantis (R) to postpone his presidential dreams until 2028, warning that a 2024 run would fracture the “MAGA movement.” “I think that Ron DeSantis is very smart,” Lara Trump told Sky News host Erin Molan. “There will be a lot of opportunity for him in the future … to run for president.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Political history is rife with examples of people who should have run, but waited, and lost (Think Chris Christie in 2012). 2024 May Be Ron DeSantis's moment. BTW just what IS The“MAGA movement.”?

I am grateful for the things that Trump accomplished when he was in office and I really think that crimes were committed against his administration that seem like no one will ever really answer for. He has every right to be p'd. That said - we are trying to win elections . Right or wrong Trump has way to much baggage to win Independents and carry over Dems which candidates for President need. Just Ever Trumpers alone are not going to do it. He is an intensely ego-driven person and I don't think he at all has 'the good of the party' or 'the good of the country' in his mind at all. IMHO if we can't put forward a candidate in the primaries that can defeat him (without him out & out destroying the other candidates personally) , we shall end up having a Democrat President again. Since they don't have anyone who is worth a damn anymore, whoever it will be (Joe or whomever) will be an additional disaster to this country.

So In Other Words you are an Unamerican RINO! because that is what the Ever Trumpers will say. You see when he says or does something (well) stupid he's just playing 4/5/6D Chess and we just don't see how brilliant he is. What I see here (on this Topic) is Donald Trump sucking all the oxygen out of the room and making the conversation All About Him. All Politicians have big egos (you have to in order to think you are the best person for the job), and the higher the office the Bigger The Ego. Trump does not Try (maybe he can't) to hide/hold back his ego. This is a real down side for a lot of people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geee Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Ron DeSantis finally responds to attacks from Trump, media: 'Check out the scoreboard' Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis responded to attacks from former President Donald Trump and the media on Tuesday. Trump made a flurry of attacks against DeSantis in the days surrounding Election Day, calling him "Ron DeSanctimonious" and claiming to be responsible for his success in Florida. DeSantis, Trump's most credible rival for a presidential run in 2024, remained silent on the issue until responding to questions on the topic at a Tuesday press conference. "One of the things I've learned in this job is when you're leading, when you're getting things done, you take incoming fire. That's just the nature of it," DeSantis said in response to a question about Trump. "I roll out of bed in the morning and I have corporate media outlets that have a spasm just because I'm getting up in the morning, and it's just constantly attacking." "I think what you learn is all of that is just noise, and really what matters is are you leading, are you getting in front of issues, are you delivering results for people, and are you standing up for folks," he continued. "At the end of the day I would just tell people to go check out the scoreboard from last Tuesday night." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
