If DeSantis is as good as you say and believe he is, then he like Trump will not win. The Dems will engineer a Dem victory in 2024 just like they did in 2020. When will you get this through your thick skulls?

Ron should be telling the truth, that Trump lost through fraud.

I thought Mike said his wife wouldn't let him dine alone with a woman.

Got a question if anyone knows the answer. Who is providing security for DeSantis while he's on the campaign trail? Normally, don't the Florida State Police have a special team that protects the Governor 24/7? Does this mean he's dragging Florida troopers around with him on the back of the taxpayers? Probably another reason he got the Resign-to-Run law changed, so he wouldn't have to pay for his own security while campaigning around the country. What a great guy!!

" Trump could have fought it with the $250 million donated to him, to fight it, but spent it on PR instead."

Yeah, $250 million would have gone a long, long way to combat the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud system in the history of this country. How many millions in tax payer dollars do you think the government has spent these past 8 years going after Trump? I'm sure it's well over $250 million. And that doesn't even include the taxpayer money that Cities and States are using to go after him on criminal charges, and you're worried about $250 million??? You should be embarrassed. You sound like a broken record. You need to get a new sob story, because you've worn that one out.

"Considering what politics is, it’s remarkable that DeSantis is so bad at it."

He didn't have to be good. All he needed was a large Republican majority in the Florida State Legislature to make him look good. He didn't have to do anything but sign his name on the Bills they sent him.

"Because Trump gave up on bringing appropriate court actions to substantiate it. Trump was the injured party with standing who could have brought court actions."

Trump filed over 50 lawsuits related to the 2020 election. Where do you go after the Supreme Court formally rejects the suits you requested them to review?

U.S. Supreme Court formally pulls the plug on election-related cases

"The ceaseless slander of Ron Desantis by Trump supporters will in no way help to elect a Republican president in 2024."

Well, the ceaseless attacks against Trump over the past 8 years have managed to make him even more popular that he ever was before. Every time he's indicted, his numbers go up, as do the donations. Besides, it isn't slander if it's true, and DeSantis is proving it more, and more every day.

He will be eligible for secret service protection in 2024, if he’s still in the race. But until then, Florida is footing the bill.

if you believe the numbers, 2020 had 156m voters out of 168m registered, show up to vote. that’s a 93% turnout. it’s NEVER that high

Such obvious fraud but many Freepers are in denial. Many Freepers are simply math challenged - in a basic way.

Alex Bruesewitz? Give me a break. The statement is an opinion of his. AB is a 20 something social media influencer. It seems that he is influencing some on here.

Show me something of substance in order to influence me. I could go to the local high school and capture the opinion of several hangers on that never left.

He once said that he enrolled “himself in a renowned college for his further graduation.” He has never disclosed the college. He announced he will run against Mike Gallagher (Republican Rep in Wisconsin) but lives in West Palm Beach, FL.

As I wrote above - Alex Bruesewitz?

This is a crock. See the post in today’s FR describing Desantis’ war against global warming ideology — hardly a swamp manifesto. Waiting for Trump to attack him from the left on this.

Yes $250 million. That’s a lot of dough even to a rich guy like Trump. And it was donated to him for the explicit purpose of proven the election was stolen. And if that’s so much money, why didn’t Trump ever even pay Rudy for his legal services? Trump stiffed him on his bills! “America’s Mayor” his supposed lead attorney never got paid.

Like it or not, Trump took that money and disappeared for all of 2021 instead of trying to prove the election was stolen, and spent it on PR in 2022 instead. Why? I’ve been wondering for 2 years now. At this point, my guess is because he either didn’t think it was stolen, or knew he couldn’t prove it. Either way, he’s a beaten man, and nothing has changed since then.

I sound like a broken record? No, it’s you guys who sound like a broken record.

2,000 Mules you say? Simple ballot harvesting, that Trump paid for.

Ruby and her boxes under her table? Won all her lawsuits.

Dominion? Won all their lawsuits.

Mike Lindell and his network packet captures? Showed nothing, now being sued by Dominion.

But the ballots went up for Democrats overnight? Just as they had predicted, due to absentee ballots being counted last. They referred to it as a “red mirage” that would happen, look it up.

I myself still believe there was a lot of funny business going on, but Trump has had two and a half years to prove it, but has come up with nothing new in all this time.

TALK ABOUT A BROKEN RECORD!

Almost no one who was even actually working for him at the time believes it any more.

Ron stated there were many irregularities, but Ron is right: if we continue to harp on fraud, we will lose.

We will lose PA.

We will lose GA.

We will lose MI.

Can you not understand that people will not support your position if you call them liars and cheaters?

This last applies to swing state voters as well as supporters of the other Republican candidates.

Being a rabid Trump supporter is great, but you need to learn how to build a coalition. Then again, that wasn’t Trump’s strong suit either.

Trump increased his vote total the second time.

What he built was an Anti Swamp block of voters that we’re lucky didn’t start 1776 part 2 because of a stolen election by the swamp.

Because Trump started talking 2024 election and not revolution..

Another success of Trump keeping us out of having a hot war in this nation..

Maybe it comes in 2024/2025 if the swamp plays games against Trump again.

Can’t win national election without charisma.
Conservatives are a minority in America now.
DeSantis is a boring speaker and no personality.
But if he becomes nominee, you bet I will vote for him.
He is a good governor in my state.

Keeping United States out of hot wars is Trump’s best characteristic. We have more national debt than the next 10 biggest countries combined. We will soon join Zimbabwe & pre-war Germany.

You'd think that if had Trump violated any laws, or rules pertaining to that $250 million, he'd have already been indicted for it, along with the rest of the people who were involved in setting the fund up. They've indicted him for everything else...even crap from 30 years ago. Why not this?

Democrats went after him about this during the January 6th hearings claiming Trump committed fraud. Democrat Zoe Lofgren pushed the theory. Yeah, those are the people whose sentiments I want to echo. The January 6th Committee submitted criminal referrals to the DOJ on Trump. Was the $250 million one of them? I don't recall it being included, so why wasn't it, if it was an actual violation of laws?

According to this article, that quoted Trump campaign aides, the “Official Election Defense Fund” as it was called, never formally existed. So, how does one steal from a defense fund that never really existed?

Trump’s raising of $250m for fund that ‘did not exist’ suggests possible fraud

Alleging someone stole money from a fund that even didn't exist, without having any evidence to back it up, is just rumor, gossip, and innuendo...and Democrat talking points. You could always call your Rep. and US Senator to ask them why a criminal referral wasn't sent to the DOJ on this, or do you only want to whine about something you're too lazy to pursue?

Thanks for the link. It couldn't have cost much for security for Biden in 2020 since he spent the majority of his campaign in his basement. There won't be any debates for any Democrat challengers, because Joe will be in his basement against this time around. And that's good, because the less the Secret Service has to be around Joe's dog, the better. Then of course it's possible the DNC hasn't told Joe yet that he's not going to be the nominee. I don't even know when any of their Presdential primaries are going to be.

Between July 1, 2021, and June 30, 2022, the The Florida Department of Law Enforcement spent a total of $4,766,643.40 on DeSantis's protection. And now that he had part of the Sunshine Laws changed so that the public and media can't see any of his past and future travels, who he meets with, etc., they are paying for his protection without knowing what their money is being spent on.

of the 63 lawsuits, 60 were dismissed for “no standing” - this is a way of getting rid of suits you don’t want to be judged on the merits.

Of the 3 that went to trial, Trump won 2 of the 3.

Facts.
