"What makes DeSantis believe that if something happens to Trump that Trump supporters will just move to DeSantis? Not going to happen!"

Because voters are stupid, and will vote for a shill, just to keep a seat Republican.

So who would Trump supporters go for, if Trump were out of the running? If Trump is out of the running, all of us will have to have a second choice

No. I'm writing him in even if he's not running and I know I'm not alone in that.

Trump feels betrayed like us other Floridians do.

"Why is Trump so worried about DeSantis, who is doing so poorly in the polls?"

Is he? I haven't seen or heard Trump railing on about DeSantis for quite a while now. He has no need to.

He never talks much about him much at rallies anymore. He really isn’t too worried about Ron.

DeSantis does most of the damage to himself all by himself.

Wittingly or unwittingly he just does.

Ha..recall that Steve Cortez quit the War Room Pandemic to go work on the de Sanctimonious campaign.
Another looser looking for work.

"I am 1000% with you I STAY HOME, sorry not a dimes worth of difference between the GOPe field and the Dem not interested in taking the time out of my day to vote Dem lite!!!"

Same here. If anything, I'll keep writing Trump's name in for as long as I live, even if he's passed on. If you're going to vote for what the GOPe today considers a viable "Conservative" candidate, you might as well vote for the dead guy.

Been asked and answered repeatedly.

"As a supporter of DeSantis, I'm enjoying watching him live rent-free in your and Trump's heads. Clearly, you're worried."

From the guy who has Trump supporters living rent-free in his head.

Meatball certainly is one incredibly contemptible, despicable selfish narcissist.

He obviously doesn’t care about anybody but himself and clearly doesn’t give a damn about doing what’s right for his country.

I cannot believe he’s even surpassed Judas Pence in this regard!!

This is NO time for vindictiveness!!!

"On the other hand, people have short memories, especially in politics."

The older I've gotten, when it comes to politics, my memory serves me well.

Same here. Even if the "lawfare" does take out Trump, as DeSantis evidently presumed all along, or if even Trump dies of natural causes (he is 77), I could never vote for DeSantis.

He has proven to be such a slimy person.

—> Apparently we are to disregard his record, because of personal animosity towards DeSantis.

I acknowledge he has a good record with a controlling Republican legislature - and Trump’s endorsement.

I also recognize he’s a short, disloyal post-turtle with poor judgement.

His record includes promoting Puerto Rico as a state and cutting social security.

And his deep state associations.

So there’s that.

The root word is “exist”.

As in, Ron is hoping for something to happen where POTUS DJT don’t exist no more.

Nothing indirect or nuanced about it

Why do the Only Trumpers constantly obsess over DeSantis while simultaneously declaring he is no threat to Trump whatsoever?

They don't do this with Nikki Haley or Chrs Christie.

It's really strange.

DeSantis has shown that he is a scumbag, pretending, small man syndrome suffering, obnoxious and establishment sympathizing punk.

That’s no conservative.

Huh?

For a politician he seems almost normal.
