We know what your problem is. But what happened to Sundance?

Didn’t he used to be somewhat relevant and semi-conservative?

In other words, only democrats are allowed to do fundraising outside of the public spotlight.

This is the kind of trash move I’d expect from Democrats. They just hate the sunshine.
Et tu, Mr. DeSantis?

Cue the DeSanctimonious Supporters:

“But’s he’s not running! He hasn’t declared!”

Some people just can’t handle the governor’s success.

Anyone who isn’t Trump is our enemy. Morons.

The deepstate does not want us to see DeSantis coordinate with them.

The only "Moron" on this thread is the one that ignores how bad this makes DeSantis looks and deflects with some nonsense of the "governor's success".

I’m surprised Larry Hogan isn’t in that picture.

Presidential primaries are all about vetting and transparency.

Any candidate who is sealing records to run for President needs much closer scrutiny and vetting.

Plus a lot of skepticism on his or her suitability.

Disappointed to DeSantis going down this path.

It would be interesting to know who is paying for all Ron’s travels as he doesn’t run for President...

You hit the nail on the head.

Some let their emotions cloud their reasoning. My ire is saved for the political operative scumbags, and from here to the 2024 election they'll be here and elsewhere like cockroaches.

This business about travel records is “inside baseball” , the sort of thing that average voters will not know about, and wouldn’t care about anyway.

Go ahead and make excuses for this bad behavior all you want.

It stinks and just re-confirms all the bad notions discerning people are beginning to have about DeSantis.

Just an observation.

How often have you ever heard that how a state handles travels records, as a campaign issue when someone is running for political office?

This kind of thing may cause consternation among political junkie types on Free Republic , but it doesn’t resonate with average people. That’s my only point that the average person does not care about this. And if DeSantis gets into the presidential race , I seriously doubt this issue is going to be discussed. People will vote for or against candidates based on other issues not on whether their state has sealed travel records.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The only morons are those that ignore and refuse to vet stories like these. If it’s true, why is it being done?

Valid questions.

It may be “inside baseball” but if he runs, the media will make it out to be a sign of how DeSantis is a secretive threat to democracy. He must be secretly visiting with Russian agents, or maybe even Chinese spies, getting ready to sell out the country.

You nitpick about DeSantis’s travel records?

How about showcasing how much Trump spent on traveling in his quest to be prez again?

Or better yet, how much us taxpayers spent on Trump travels?

Like 1.3 million a year.

Baloney. The first hardcore Trump supporter I met in 2016 described his attraction to Trump as a political candidate this way:

”When I see him flying around on the campaign trail during the primary season, I never have to ask myself who paid for the flight.”
