With regards to Trump not firing many who should have been fired I am of the opinion that he (foolishly) was surrounded by folks giving him reasons why he couldn't rather than why he should. He was 'played', 'slow rolled', and 'shined on' all in an effort to hamstring his agenda and run out the clock on his Presidency.
I'm gambling on him having learned by now who to trust and who not to trust rather than having to see Desantis go thru the same learning curve. |

The biggest problem with him isn't his message , his message is fine it's that he's stiff and awkward when he tries to interact with people.

But, at the same time, he must do what he thinks is right. I want him to do what he thinks is right, but I disagree with him on what he's doing Wow what an attack Yes, Trump sees a Governor opening up his state, he criticized him for it, but in a wishy-washy, half-assed way. Trump: “I could’ve stopped him but I decided to watch it closely, so we will see what happens. I told him very distinctly, I said, ‘You do what you think is best.’ But if you ask me, I am not happy.” Yeah. That’s Trump. You nailed it. Fucking lame. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: DeSantis brought in 18 million in the past day from private donations. Was not aware of that. It might not be obvious by my posts but I am leaning on supporting Trump  All kidding aside I watched the interview with Trey Gowdy and DeSantis and I liked what I heard him say . He didn't get into specifics and I didn't expect him to either this early on. But eventually he will have to answer questions on how he expects to do all those things he said . My vote is still for Trump in the primary unless DeSantis can make the argument why he will be different . His message bring America back , Trump make America great Kind of the same thing but let's see exactly how he plans to do this . If he goes Rouge he's going to face the shit Trump faced so what's so different about DeSantis ? I don't see much difference |

Quote HistoryQuoted: More than 150 former Trump administration officials now backing DeSantis for president Among several others, former DHS Acting Deputy Secretary Ken Cuccinelli has joined the coalition to support DeSantis for president. More than 150 former Trump administration officials are now backing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' endeavors of becoming the Republican Party's 2024 presidential nominee, Fox News Digital has learned. Sources familiar with the coalition officially known as "The Eight-Year Alliance" confirmed the list is rapidly growing and that the initial number of more than 100 former Trump administration officials supporting DeSantis surged past 150 this week. Additional members of the alliance, as confirmed Wednesday, include: former Department of Homeland Security Acting Deputy Secretary Ken Cuccinelli; Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General at the Office of Legal Counsel Henry Whitaker; former Chief of Staff to the Attorney General William Levi; former Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Policy & Interagency Coordination Carlos Diaz-Rosillo; George "Jed" Doty and Christopher Cooke from the White House Counsel's Office; former Chief of Staff for Congressional and Intergovernmental Affairs at the Department of Energy Nick Cattroppo; former Chief of Staff for the Director of National Intelligence Dustin Carmack; former Deputy General Counsel at the Department of Defense Ryan Newman; and Jason Weida, who served in the Department of Justice's Office of Legal Policy. Other individuals who have joined the coalition include Juan Cruz, who served on the White House's National Security Counsel as the senior director for Western Hemisphere Affairs, and former U.S. Attorneys Nick Trutanich (Nevada), Jay Town (Northern District of Alabama), John Anderson (New Mexico), Trent Shores (Northern District of Oklahoma) and Mike Hurst (Southern District of Mississippi). A website for the coalition and its efforts launched Wednesday. "Serving in the White House and across the federal government, we worked tirelessly to implement a meaningful policy agenda, to do battle with Deep State bureaucrats, and to make sure the public knew the truth irrespective of constant media distortions," members of the alliance wrote on the website. The primary motivation of the group, sources told Fox News Digital earlier this week, is to promote a candidate they feel would be a viable contender for two presidential terms, something they see in DeSantis. They also want to prevent former President Donald Trump "immediately becoming a lame-duck president" should he win back the White House, considering the polarizing affect his persona has had on American politics. Earlier this week, it was confirmed that the coalition included former Acting Associate Attorney General Jesse Panuccio; former Special Assistant to the Secretary of Defense Will Bushman; former Counselor to the Secretary and White House Liaison at the Department of Labor Pedro Allende; former Senior Counsel and Senior Adviser to the Secretary of Commerce James Uthmeier; and Principal Deputy General Counsel at the Department of Commerce David Dewhirst. Fox has not yet been provided a full list of names of those that have signed on as part of the coalition. Uthmeier, who currently serves as DeSantis' chief of staff in Tallahassee, and Dewhirst have also been deeply involved in the process of growing the coalition. In a statement to Fox News Digital, Alex Pfeiffer, a spokesperson for the pro-Trump super PAC MAGA Inc., said: "This alleged list of former Trump officials has yet to be released to the media or the public. Of the names that have been released, several are currently on the payroll of the DeSantis administration or the DeSantis campaign. The losers and bureaucrats that worked to subvert and undermine the America First agenda will be at home on Team DeSantis given Ron DeSantis voted time and again against President Trump and his agenda." The sources emphasized this week that they are not seeking to bash Trump, and that they were "proud" of their service to the Trump administration and its effort to "shake things up" in Washington, but that they were now "wholeheartedly" behind DeSantis. 8 Year Alliance https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/122381/Screenshot_20230525_233506_Chrome_jpg-2829078.JPG 1. Governor DeSantis can give us 8 years in the White House. The republic faces grave threats, and it will require two terms of energetic, conservative executive leadership to begin righting the ship. On virtually every front, there is much to do. But to end the "policy pendulum" mode of governing and ensure lasting change, we must elect a President who can serve for eight consecutive years. The work simply can't be done by a President who becomes a lame duck on his first day in office. Troublingly, in modern history, only once has the party of a one-term President retained the White House after his departure. 2. Governor DeSantis knows how to win. The Governor's record is nothing short of remarkable. On every front, Florida has registered trailblazing conservative wins. Politically, he's transformed Florida from a purple battleground to a ruby red conservative stronghold. His leadership proves that bold, aggressive conservatism can win. When it comes to both policy and politics, Governor DeSantis picks the right fights, but he also knows how to win them. 3. Governor DeSantis knows what winning means. The Left continues to mount an unrelenting assault on our traditions, values, beliefs, and common sense. But in Florida, the Left is retreating. Governor DeSantis just championed the most significant conservative legislative reform package in history. And that follows on the heels of an already historic governorship. In a culture that disagrees on the fundamentals, we want someone who knows what is right and is willing to fight for it. 4. Governor DeSantis is the candidate the other side fears most. Every major power center of the Left wants Donald Trump to be the Republican nominee. The reason is obvious: they believe they can beat him. Recent head-to-head polling against Biden combined with the Governor's 20-point win in November suggest that they are correct. But Governor DeSantis poses a much more menacing threat to the Left's plans. His discipline, clarity of purpose, and success terrify the other side and President Trump too, for that matter. If you're one of the many conservative, hardworking appointees that served in the last Republican Administration, and if you believe like we do that Governor Ron DeSantis is the future, then we encourage you to join us!

Quote HistoryQuoted: And what was Trump doing Telling the governors to open their states back up while being made into Hitler by the media because he wants to kill people . Some did but most kept their states closed. I know you remember this ... He was saying we have to open this country back up , get kids back in school and he was facing unprecedented backlash from the media and some Republicans Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: DeSantis admitted that he fucked up following Trump's federal guidelines before realizing it was bullshit and reopened. Trump says he wouldn't have changed his covid response and that his "vaccine"is one of mankind's greatest achievements. You can't attach DeSantis for his response to covid when it was Trump pushing the lockdowns and clot shot. He went along with Trump before realizing he was full of shit.

I know you remember this ...

Look what he did to those states in 2022. He's a known quality and those states find him lacking. Trump will never come close to a popular vote majority. DeSantis can and that would ensure an Electoral College win for the presidency. AZ, GA, MI, MN, PA, and WI are all needed at a minimum. |

Maybe vote for the snake without bone spurs would be a better way to put it? If you like, yet bone spurs are quite fashionable though? The humorless people here called themselves out in response to a joke about politicians. Snakes and Ladders? |

Coming to this forum and being involved in this "discussion" of DeSantis versus Trump really was a bad idea. The level of conversation here is, like, near bedrock.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: More than 150 former Trump administration officials now backing DeSantis for president Among several others, former DHS Acting Deputy Secretary Ken Cuccinelli has joined the coalition to support DeSantis for president. More than 150 former Trump administration officials are now backing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' endeavors of becoming the Republican Party's 2024 presidential nominee, Fox News Digital has learned. Sources familiar with the coalition officially known as "The Eight-Year Alliance" confirmed the list is rapidly growing and that the initial number of more than 100 former Trump administration officials supporting DeSantis surged past 150 this week. Additional members of the alliance, as confirmed Wednesday, include: former Department of Homeland Security Acting Deputy Secretary Ken Cuccinelli; Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General at the Office of Legal Counsel Henry Whitaker; former Chief of Staff to the Attorney General William Levi; former Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Policy & Interagency Coordination Carlos Diaz-Rosillo; George "Jed" Doty and Christopher Cooke from the White House Counsel's Office; former Chief of Staff for Congressional and Intergovernmental Affairs at the Department of Energy Nick Cattroppo; former Chief of Staff for the Director of National Intelligence Dustin Carmack; former Deputy General Counsel at the Department of Defense Ryan Newman; and Jason Weida, who served in the Department of Justice's Office of Legal Policy. Other individuals who have joined the coalition include Juan Cruz, who served on the White House's National Security Counsel as the senior director for Western Hemisphere Affairs, and former U.S. Attorneys Nick Trutanich (Nevada), Jay Town (Northern District of Alabama), John Anderson (New Mexico), Trent Shores (Northern District of Oklahoma) and Mike Hurst (Southern District of Mississippi). A website for the coalition and its efforts launched Wednesday. "Serving in the White House and across the federal government, we worked tirelessly to implement a meaningful policy agenda, to do battle with Deep State bureaucrats, and to make sure the public knew the truth irrespective of constant media distortions," members of the alliance wrote on the website. The primary motivation of the group, sources told Fox News Digital earlier this week, is to promote a candidate they feel would be a viable contender for two presidential terms, something they see in DeSantis. They also want to prevent former President Donald Trump "immediately becoming a lame-duck president" should he win back the White House, considering the polarizing affect his persona has had on American politics. Earlier this week, it was confirmed that the coalition included former Acting Associate Attorney General Jesse Panuccio; former Special Assistant to the Secretary of Defense Will Bushman; former Counselor to the Secretary and White House Liaison at the Department of Labor Pedro Allende; former Senior Counsel and Senior Adviser to the Secretary of Commerce James Uthmeier; and Principal Deputy General Counsel at the Department of Commerce David Dewhirst. Fox has not yet been provided a full list of names of those that have signed on as part of the coalition. Uthmeier, who currently serves as DeSantis' chief of staff in Tallahassee, and Dewhirst have also been deeply involved in the process of growing the coalition. In a statement to Fox News Digital, Alex Pfeiffer, a spokesperson for the pro-Trump super PAC MAGA Inc., said: "This alleged list of former Trump officials has yet to be released to the media or the public. Of the names that have been released, several are currently on the payroll of the DeSantis administration or the DeSantis campaign. The losers and bureaucrats that worked to subvert and undermine the America First agenda will be at home on Team DeSantis given Ron DeSantis voted time and again against President Trump and his agenda." The sources emphasized this week that they are not seeking to bash Trump, and that they were "proud" of their service to the Trump administration and its effort to "shake things up" in Washington, but that they were now "wholeheartedly" behind DeSantis. 8 Year Alliance https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/122381/Screenshot_20230525_233506_Chrome_jpg-2829078.JPG 1. Governor DeSantis can give us 8 years in the White House. The republic faces grave threats, and it will require two terms of energetic, conservative executive leadership to begin righting the ship. On virtually every front, there is much to do. But to end the "policy pendulum" mode of governing and ensure lasting change, we must elect a President who can serve for eight consecutive years. The work simply can't be done by a President who becomes a lame duck on his first day in office. Troublingly, in modern history, only once has the party of a one-term President retained the White House after his departure. 2. Governor DeSantis knows how to win. The Governor's record is nothing short of remarkable. On every front, Florida has registered trailblazing conservative wins. Politically, he's transformed Florida from a purple battleground to a ruby red conservative stronghold. His leadership proves that bold, aggressive conservatism can win. When it comes to both policy and politics, Governor DeSantis picks the right fights, but he also knows how to win them. 3. Governor DeSantis knows what winning means. The Left continues to mount an unrelenting assault on our traditions, values, beliefs, and common sense. But in Florida, the Left is retreating. Governor DeSantis just championed the most significant conservative legislative reform package in history. And that follows on the heels of an already historic governorship. In a culture that disagrees on the fundamentals, we want someone who knows what is right and is willing to fight for it. 4. Governor DeSantis is the candidate the other side fears most. Every major power center of the Left wants Donald Trump to be the Republican nominee. The reason is obvious: they believe they can beat him. Recent head-to-head polling against Biden combined with the Governor's 20-point win in November suggest that they are correct. But Governor DeSantis poses a much more menacing threat to the Left's plans. His discipline, clarity of purpose, and success terrify the other side and President Trump too, for that matter. If you're one of the many conservative, hardworking appointees that served in the last Republican Administration, and if you believe like we do that Governor Ron DeSantis is the future, then we encourage you to join us! https://thechive.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/kramlead.jpg?attachment_cache_bust=3947692&quality=85&strip=info&w=640 https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AiWyA1N3A9Q/maxresdefault.jpg "King of .40cal with the receipts Jerry.."

Elon Musk was left furious after Ron DeSantis' Twitter Spaces campaign launch saw his own app crash repeatedly
 After a Twitter Spaces campaign launch spoiled by delays and technical glitches, Ron DeSantis' team bragged that it "broke the internet" due to his popularity. But behind the scenes, Elon Musk was left furious over the problems his platform faced on Wednesday, Platformer first reported. According to the tech newsletter, even Musk's own app — he uses an employee-only version called Earlybird — crashed repeatedly during the event. An Insider source corroborated Platformer's report and said that Musk was clearly upset and annoyed by the issues with the event. Several users said their Twitter apps crashed during DeSantis' announcement, which was more than 20 minutes late to start due to technical glitches. Three Twitter employees told The New York Times that staff had been worrying whether the platform could handle all the traffic, and there was no plan for any reliability issues. "Spaces was largely a prototype, not a finished product," one ex-Twitter staffer told CNN. "It's a beta test that never ended." David Sacks, a venture capitalist and former PayPal executive who cohosted the event, claimed the event was "by far the biggest room ever held on social media." But even its peak 600,000 listeners was well behind the 30 million who attended Travis Scott's virtual Fortnite concert, and the 2.5 million who watched the PlayStation showcase on the same day as the Twitter Space. Sacks told The New York Times his claim was based on data given to him by a Twitter engineer. "I've asked for more detailed analytics, but they're a little busy right now," he added. Publicly, Musk also claimed it was "the top story on Earth," but a look at the world's newspapers and Google search data showed people were far more interested in the death of Tina Turner. Link |
