Nobody is more self serving than Meatball. I mean he actually changed the law in Florida just for himself to allow him to run for POTUS and still keep the job of Governor for when he loses.

It doesn’t get any more self serving than that. He should never have lied to the people of Florida. A guy who can lie like that is not what America needs right now.

And when DeSantis proved Trump right about being a great governor:

“Less than 24 hours after dubbing him “Ron DeSanctimonious” during a rally in Pennsylvania, Trump steered clear of expanding criticism during a Miami event. Instead he endorsed his re-election.

“You’re going to re-elect Ron DeSantis as Governor of your state,” he said, finally endorsing after months of narrative suggesting Trump and DeSantis were at odds.” — https://floridapolitics.com/archives/569383-trump-desantis-endorse/

Despite Trump’s second “endorsement” and name-calling, DeSantis made Florida election history because of how he governed in his first term. At that point, DeSantis owed Trump zip, and Trump was running scared, although he has always been way ahead in the polls. You have to be willfully blind to not see that Trump’s ego feeds off of ring-kissers and roaring crowds. It didn’t prevent him from getting some things done right as president, but it didn’t prevent him from making some terrible appointments either.

Yet it’s quite possible if he runs in ‘28, he will be seen as the next anointed one.

Some fair-weather patriots pledge their lives and fortunes. Former (and Future) President Trump actually is living it.

There has never been a more David vs Goliath America leader with Trump taking on the entire WEF/derpstate machine since George Washington battled the "First" English Empire at its apex of power.

What’s hypocritical, and what did he say that was wrong?

He won in spite of Trump, in a year when Trumpist candidates were losing everywhere, and then he was re-elected massively after Trump attacked him just a few days before the election.

Adam Putnam is not and was not “right wing.”

“You can be the most worthless Republican in America, but if you kiss the ring, he’ll say you’re wonderful. You can be the strongest, most dynamic, successful Republican and conservative in America. But if you don’t kiss that ring, then he’ll try to trash you.”

Take Thomas Massie and Chip Roy, for example. Virtually 100 percenters. They vote right on just about every issue. Constitutionalists. Trump trashes them. OTOH, he LOVES Lindsey Graham and other RINOs.

The Trump of 2024 is not hte Trump of 2016.

Trump wants people to vote..

But doesn't care if they die, so long as they vote for him. He's getting like Biden and letting the truth slip out.

DeSantis is running because he is clearly the best qualified Republican to serve as President. He carried out conservative policies in Florida without making any appointments as stupid and incompetent as Chris Wray and Bob Barr.

Trump is running only because his wounded ego won’t let him retire and support anyone else. And the Biden/Obama cabal have nominated Trump for the Republicans with their evil indictments.

Would Trump want his supporters to vote for somebody else?

Btw, Trump could have in 2021 called his millions to pledge their lives,fortunes and sacred honor and fight to restore the Republic against the installed King..

Instead, he told them to wait and vote in 2024..

So selfish /s

“Trump prioritizes personal loyalty over the nation’s welfare.”

That is the most ridiculous statement anyone could make about someone running for office. Loyalty to the person who advocates something political is the same thing as wanting that political thing. It's not a junior high school crush.

He flat out said he doesn't care how sick they are, or if they die in the process of trying to vote for him today. It's the most selfish statement I've ever heard from a politician, ever. Name one worse.

Trump could have in 2021 called his millions to pledge their lives, fortunes and sacred honor and fight to restore the Republic against the installed King.

LOL, gimme a break. Trump's not a fighter, he's like the Wizard of Oz. He couldn't even stand up to Fauci, or Pelosi. He'd run off to some secret hideaway before getting involved in a civil war. He has bone spurs for starters.

The reason people should vote for Trump and not that weakling from Florida.
