Snarky and Brilliant – President Trump Will Travel to Iowa State Fair With 9 Florida Republicans Who Endorsed Him, On Same Day DeSantis Will Attend

President Trump is too good at trolling the opposition; in part that’s why the professional left hate him so much.

According to the Des Moines Register, President Trump and Ron DeSantis will be attending the Iowa State Fair on Saturday. However, President Trump will be flying into the political event with a contingent of Florida republicans who endorsed him and not DeMeatball.

IOWA – […] Former President Donald Trump will visit the Iowa State Fair Saturday with a bevy of congressional endorsers in tow — not high-profile Iowans, but nine Florida Republicans who have backed him over his chief rival and fellow Floridian, Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Trump’s campaign confirmed to the Des Moines Register that Republican U.S. Reps. Gus Bilirakis, Byron Donalds, Matt Gaetz, Carlos Gimenez, Brian Mast, Cory Mills, Anna Paulina Luna, Greg Steube and Mike Waltz will all be traveling with Trump to the Iowa State Fair and will be with him through the day.

Each of them has endorsed Trump over DeSantis, a former member of Congress, who will also be at the fair Saturday.

[…] It’s the latest instance of Trump’s campaign timing his travels to Iowa to pull the attention of media and attendees away from DeSantis and toward their candidate.

Other details of Trump’s visit to the fairgrounds, scheduled for 1 p.m. Saturday, remain scant. But he will visit on his own terms — as the only Republican candidate, besides Chris Christie, who won’t participate in either the Des Moines Register’s Political Soapbox or the “fair-side chat” series with Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds.

[…] It is unclear whether Trump’s presence, which comes with Secret Service and security measures, will have a significant impact on the fair’s operations and crowd sizes on an expected high-traffic Saturday. A spokesperson for the Iowa State Fair was not immediately available for comment Tuesday evening.

In 2015, Trump caused a stir at the fairgrounds by landing his helicopter nearby and offering rides to children. (read more)

Trump has had his chance. He lost, and he’ll lose again. He needs to get over himself and step aside.

Trump has shown he can outmarket the political marketers.

This move is a frontal assault on Desantis just like when he brought the Clinton abused women to the Hillary encounter

Trump still running against DeSantis who he claims he is beating by a huge margin….maybe, just maybe Trump will actually run against Biden someday; right after he Aliienates 5o% of the republican voters.

Did he come up with any new nicknames for his enemy list today?

DeSanctimonious polls lower and lower as voters get to the real DeSantis.

He needs to get over the false idea he has a Snowball’s Chance in He’ll of winning the GOP nomination, much less, rhe POTUS 2024 general election, admit he was snooker by his Globalist, NeoCon, DeepState backers, drop out of the race and whole-heartedly endorse President Trump.

That is, if he is really serious about the 2028 POTUS race.

Item one is always to expose/neutralize the enemy within your own fort BEFORE the fight.

And yes.. The Bushies, Romneys, McVains, Pence, Meatballs, Ryans, McCarthys, Mitches, etc. are every bit my enemy as any democrat. Because they are owned by the same evil.

DeSantis has been on the receiving end of $25M in despicable attack ads from Trump. The text of those ads could have been written by the DNC. For everyone pronouncing the race is over, I submit the contest begins on Aug. 23 at the first debate. It will be the first event not wholly focused on Trump’s latest drama. Minds could quickly and dramatically change.

Cheating vitiates the contest. Trump did not lose. A fraud was certified by 30 Pence but that did not make it real.

Why would minds change? We already know who the candidates are. None have surprises to produce.

Ron is just not ready to run for President. He should stick with the governorship, at which he has been a success.

How about a rally near Milwaukee or a town hall on Newsmax?
