In a Thursday interview with MSNBC, Florida governor and 2024 GOP primary candidate Ron DeSantis suggested that Donald Trump should be removed from the primary ballot if he is convicted in any of the legal cases the frontrunner is currently facing.

"So I signed a pledge, Willie, and that pledge is what it is," DeSantis said,

"Now, do I think somebody under those circumstances could get elected president? The answer is no.

"I don't think the party should nominate in that situation.

Just the very fact that DeSantis is talking to MSNBC tells everyone what they need to know about him.

Yes - haMaSNBC, which cable "news" station didn't have Word One to say about Shani Louk being beheaded by the Hamanimals.

The dems want the courts to neutralize their leading political opponent.

DeSantis wants the courts to neutralize his leading political opponent.

Not much difference there.

GOP to disqualify Trump at the end? And the voters overwhelmingly qualify Trump?

The GOP can go to hell. You can have the GOP for your own toy.

only thing that can stop the pubbie branch of the uni party from disqualifying trump would be a series of serious physical quantum events that seemed to focus on RINOS and their donors.

non human intervention... thinking of herod being eaten alive by sudden infestation of cancerous attacks by internal worms... see new testament... description of what happens when leaders fail to glorify God in front of a majority of Godly followers of Christianity and Judism in the first Century.

DeSantis should not be the GOP nominee. Not now and never in the future.

I have thought the GOPe would try....

That’s why I fully expect to have to write in Trump....

and consider if it’s worth voting the down ballot republicans at all, because it would appear the ‘republican’ party would be dead at that point.

Who, me?

I've been posting "America cannot be free until the GOP is destroyed" since 2017 or earlier.

I want nothing to do with them, thanks.

DeSantis has done some great things as governor of Florida but the more I see of him, the less respect I have for him.

This is pathetic behavior from a fellow Republican!

Months ago, when these sham indictments were first handed down, I fully expected DeSantis and the rest of these GOP candidates to loudly condemn this partisan DOJ persecution of President Trump.

Instead, they chose to stay silent, and even seem to encourage this outrage.

What a missed opportunity to earn the trust and respect of Republican voters! I know that if DeSantis had expressed outrage over these indictments and over the stolen 2020 election, I would have had a hundred times the respect I have for him now.

Who are his advisors and how could they let him be so tone deaf?

De Santis, De Santis, De Santis, De Santis, De Santis…. Everyone is talking ‘bout De Santis. De Santis.

He is gaining fast. Call him Meatball, call him short, call him Sanctimonious, say mean things about his wife, but it won’t stop the fact that people love his his pro freedom policies and thousands are moving to Florida and it’s all because of Ron De Santis.

Ron De Santis. He is timing his momentum perfectly. It will only build more. Keep posting about him. He will only be more popular.

Ron De Santis: No drama, no mean name calling, no circus…just results!
Ron De Santis is synonymous with freedom.

Yes. As you noted, they should have loudly and continuously objected to how Trump was being treated. Instead they put their own political goals first.

This is bad for the Republican Party. But it is MUCH WORSE for the country. The Democrats will now be emboldened to conduct a show trial for any conservative they see as a threat.

And why not? The Democrats know that will get little or no push-back.
