Casey DeSantis Just Urged Out-of-Staters to Illegally Caucus in Iowa
The National Pulse ^ | December 8, 2023

Posted on 12/10/2023 9:35:30 AM PST by SoConPubbie

Casey DeSantis, wife of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, said the quiet part of their campaign strategy in Iowa out loud on Friday, urging out-of-state “Mamas for DeSantis” members to take part in the upcoming Iowa Caucus. The comments were made during an appearance on the Fox News Channel alongside her husband. Mrs. DeSantis said the group was collectively encouraged to “descend upon the state of Iowa to be a part of the caucus.”

The Iowa GOP was forced to issue a statement pointing out that only legal Iowa residents could vote in the caucus and reminded voters to bring a photo ID. Participation in state caucuses and primaries are typically restricted to residents of the specific state, with Iowa’s caucus set to be the first contest in the 2024 presidential election cycle.

During interview w/ @marthamaccallum, Casey DeSantis called on an out-of-state coalition of mothers and grandmothers “to descend upon the state of Iowa to be a part of the caucus” and “let their voices be heard.”

“You do not have to be a resident of Iowa,” she said. pic.twitter.com/Z8FsKrFM0K

It’s a dead story. You can wish and pray for anyone to care all you like but it is a non story that died. but today’s news is about Trump’s crazed speech last night complained about American jobs leaving to Texas. Yeah, he said that.

Why is it Duh-Saintis groupies have no ability to tell the truth?

Iowa 2016, Canadian Cruz had ‘Oh, Mandy’ live on CNN, when he fed her the news that Ben Carson dropped out. Canadian Cruz was hot with ‘Oh, Mandy’, on Tuesday evenings.. they took selfies of their like tattoos..

Stop blaming stupid lies on President Trump when the truth can be readily found.. Canadian Cruz bots are still cray-cray.

You mean the lie that Trump called for a new election in the 2016 Iowa Caucus.

The story behind the Gary Hart story:

It was a Lee Atwater special—and there was nothing Gary Hart could do about it.

No the lie that CNN came up with the Ben Carson leaving.. all on its own.. same bunch that ran Canadian Cruz's campaign are running the Duh-Saintis campaign.. they like to pretend they are holy.. but in fact they are liars and cheats!

I cannot wait to see if the South Carolina campaign hires 300 preachers to reenact bringing down the walls of Jericho..

Shame. Don’t support DeSantis, but don’t lie:

"During interview w/ @marthamaccallum, Casey DeSantis called on an out-of-state coalition of mothers and grandmothers “to descend upon the state of Iowa to be a part of the caucus”

“If you refuse to let them go, I will bring locusts into your country tomorrow. They will cover the face of the ground so that it cannot be seen. They will devour what little you have left after the hail, including everything that is growing in your fields. They will fill your houses and those of all your officials and all the Egyptians—something neither you nor your forefathers have ever seen from the day they settled in this land till now.” - Exodus 10: 4-6

She scrubbed her message.

I have a lot of dirt that needs cleaning in my house—maybe she is available.

Trump didn’t put those words in Casey’s mouth. She should have thought of that before speaking. I notice her husband who was right beside her didn’t kindly correct her mistake.

Nice try, but it is ridiculous to try and turn this on Trump.

I am pretty sure she meant nothing malicious or illegal,

And I am pretty sure she did mean something malicious and illegal.

It looked flagrantly bad, and the precautionary principle applies to all politicians. In other words, "guilty until proven innocent".

But what does it matter now? The Democrats get away with worse things all the time. She was just following their precedents. It is the new "rules of engagement". The best cheater wins the prize. And the prize will turn out to be a heap of burning rubble.

Maybe we should be playing a different game with different players.

Trump did demand a new election in the Iowa Caucus back in 2016, which is not possible. Nice try though.

Trump demanded a new Iowa Caucus back in 2016, which is not possible, he won the nomination going away, instead of moving on he fell back on the “I was robbed, the election was rigged”, whenever he loses.

You're so transparent. Scrolling through the comments you made a valiant effort to make this a Trump problem. FAIL!
