Is NRO supporting DeSantis? I think they just want someone who isn’t an unhinged lunatic and a sure loser in November.

It’s not great company, but it beats having the entire fake news industrial complex on your side like Trump is to them right now. I’ve never seen so many anti-Desantis utterly communist publications gleefully posted on this site as I have since RD announced.

Let’s be honest: if there were something Biden could lock DeSantis up over, you’d be laughing about it and so would Trump. “Sounds like Ron DeSanctimonious must have done something really serious. MAGA!!!” would be the Truth Social post.

There ISN'T anything legitimate that they can lock up Trump over. And they've been trying for 8 years. And if Ron was a second MAGA candidate to my favorite MAGA candidate, I would STILL NEVER in a million years laugh in support of such a dishonest and serious Deep State maneuver.

I’m pulling for the conservative in the race - not the LGBT flag waving, entitlement reform opposing, bump stock banning vax salesmen, so I’m not sure what you’re talking about.

Should I document Ron's vaxx salesmanship to the people of Florida. It would be easy to do.

And Florida remains one of the states where there STILL IS a bump stock ban and Ron refuses to even try, with his supermajority in the FL legislature, to overturn that ban

Add to that Florida's red flag laws that are still in place, that RON seems to like.

I’m not saying any of these cases are legitimate. Well, the Florida one is, but that’s more selective protection which isn’t really a defense in a courtroom.

The dumbass should have turned over the docs immediately. If you knew your political opponent was a communist looking for any reason to lock you up, wouldn’t you try to protect yourself? All of the other cases will probably get overturned if a LW jury decides to convict anyway, but a Florida conviction might hold up. He is on tape saying he never declassified the docs and then hid them from his lawyers telling them he turned them all in. How stupid is this guy?

I don’t understand why we need to stand behind a moron who makes himself an easy target. Is the battlefield general who charges a machine gun nest a valiant hero or a moron?

Florida never had any vax or mask mandates for anyone. It’s an old state, so it made sense for a lot of seniors to opt for the vax. What was Trump’s excuse for criticizing states like GA for opening early?

Trump passed a bump stock ban by executive fiat. There was no legislative deliberation. It was just Trump being a stupid reactionary to some communist maniac using one to shoot up a country music concert.

Trump criticized GA on April 22. Meatball locked down FL until April 30th. Whatever Trump's excuse is, Meatball is going to need a bigger one.

That's not what happened. The DOJ said that bump stock was covered under existing law. Trump did not use executive fiat. As I said, Ron does absolutely nothing about existing bump stock ban in FL, even though he has a super majority in the legislature to overturn the bump stock ban. Once again, Meatball will need to come up with a bigger excuse.

The dumbass should have turned over the docs immediately. If you knew your political opponent was a communist looking for any reason to lock you up, wouldn’t you try to protect yourself?

Trump believes he is right and doesn't appease the communist tyrants who want to seize what is now private property. Trump stands up for his rights, and our rights. You're just a big enough "dumbass" (you're the one who introduced the word into the conversation, not me) not to see the point.

So Florida was 1 week behind GA - oh no! “Whatever Trump’s excuse”. Dump has more excuses than grains of sand on the beach. 😂

Nice rewrite of history, re: bump stocks. I think there’s a future for you as a communication director with Moms Demand Action.

“Trump believes he is right” And, I believe Chump is delusional. Even Dump-sympathetic allies are saying the Florida case is strong. Maybe you get a MAGA guy in Florida who’ll hang the jury for you through the election, but the only way this one goes away is a presidential pardon, which election loser Dump will never get the chance to write for himself. Dumbass should have written himself a blanket pardon on the way out the door in 2021. File that away with obvious stuff Dump should have done but never did. It’s a pretty long file.

You're the one who went "oh no" when you complained about Trump on April 22nd. I then show you that Meatball was worse, and he you give the above nonsensical response. LOL!

No, you're the one who rewrites history. AG Matthew Whitaker did indeed announce that bump stock falls within the definition of "machine-gun" under federal law. Trump did not change the law by fiat. And once again your Meatball hero does absolutely nothing about existing bump stock law.

Even Dump-sympathetic allies are saying the Florida case is strong.

You cite nonsense. Case law and the Constitution says it's BS.

Oh, FL opening one week later than GA was a-ok with Dump. He didn't go out and actually praise DeSantis for it, but we're to infer that because it's now convenient for you. Sad!

Ohhhh, so Trump direct report employee Whitaker agreed with his boss that his bump stock royal decree was actually covered under existing law, which seems to be at odds with the federal judiciary.

You cite nonsense. Case law and the Constitution says it's BS.

The constitution says Mr. Article II can declassify at will, yes. However, when Mr. Former Article II is on tape, like a dumbass, admitting that he never actually declassified the documents that he is currently in possession of and that he can no longer do it because he's not president, he just detonated his legal defense. Now, the obstruction case becomes valid since it is established that he was in unlawful possession of the docs, and the fact that he didn't immediately turn them over when he was asked to and then had his lawyers unwittingly lie to the feds about having turned everything over, that's a special kind of stupid. But, I'm supposed to stick with this GD fool who seems to relish stepping on land mines because Crooked Hillary doesn't get prosecuted for doing the same thing? Um, no.

Trump recommended to the end of April in writing, in a memo. Your TDS is Sad.

There was no specific classified document Trump was waving. He was waving a random stack of papers. Trump has publicly said this. The witness will confirm this in court. And the DOJ has not said that they are in possession of such a document in their indictment.

Now, the obstruction case becomes valid since it is established that he was in unlawful possession of the docs.

You and Jack Smith have no legitimate case.

DeSantis has already pledged to fire Trump’s corrupt hire, Christopher Wray.

He pledged to complete his full term as governor. RD is a sack of crap.

How are you enjoying Trump's big, beautiful border wall that he pledged to build? It's doing a wonderful job keeping out all of the illegal aliens, right?

I know you will be hazing a sad, but I'm going to love the heck out of it when he resumes construction in 2025.

dopey joe is the one who has opened the floodgates, so your butthurt is misdirected.

Again.

I would like to see that memo. Do you have it? Or is it just more Trump CYA bluster?

Trump was in possession of classified documents, and now he can’t even formulate the legitimate legal defense that he declassified them with the snap of his fingers. It’s probably going to take the Supreme Court to say, “the act of bringing documents home as an outgoing president is an act of declassification despite this idiot’s admission on tape that he didn’t”

The cases against Trump are mostly illegitimate, but there is a completely avoidable appearance of impropriety that he served up to the Biden regime on a silver platter because he’s a dumb oaf. Voters will be factoring this in as they decide which corrupt politician they want to be the next president. Trump took Biden’s biggest weakness and neutralized it, and his second biggest weakness, his age, is now a wash too. Brilliant strategy.

I don’t think Biden will be resuming the border wall construction in his second term.

Thank you for agreeing that dopey joe won't be sitting in the Oval Office. Trump will.

I’m saying the opposite. The only wall Trump will be admiring is the cell wall in Biden’s gulag.

Gulag again. You have a peculiar desire to see a show trial imprison Trump and special affection for the soviet system.

I'll let you have the last word as I'm done with you.

If Trump is not going to take easy and obvious measures to protect himself from the Communist horde that has been up front about their determination to incarcerate him, why should I give a damn about him? He won’t be winning the election to get himself off the hook, and you’re mad at me because I have the nerve to recognize this reality.
