that not a coincidence. who can forget the moronic press conference trump's people had at four seasons landscaping?


Still one of the most hilarious fails in modern politics. It got memory holed pretty quick on F16 but can you imagine if Kamala had done that?

It was incredible and something that was straight out of Veep. And also what happens when no serious people want to work for him because he's a complete sideshow clown.

As soon as there was the slight delay early this morning (my time) I knew that the leftists and Trumpists would be jumping up and down with joy. "oh look the twitter feed dropped out what a calamity!!"

of course not mentioning that Twitter crashed because 500,000 people were trying to join the discussion!!

but in a world of Trump being credibly accused of sexual assualts, arrested, likely indicted several more times, discussing women's private parts, being impeached, the 6 January demonstrations..

I highly doubt that a 14 minute delay on Twitter is going to prove all that important over the long term.

For anyone who has not donated or checked out the new operational Death Star:

Ron DeSantis For President 2024

I have been contributing to GOP candidates since Bob Dole in 1996 and this is the coolest web site yet. It has a scrolling list of donors so you can see patriots from all over the country chipping in for victory in real time.

Lots of ways to volunteer to help the campaign as well just look on the right hand side of his page!

If Ron DeSantis becomes president of the United States, he would be the first commander in chief since George H. W. Bush three full decades ago to have served his country in uniform in a combat zone.

Bill Clinton famously avoided the Vietnam draft. George W. Bush served in the Texas Air National Guard but remained stateside. Barack Obama was too young for Vietnam and never seemed to seriously consider military service. Donald Trump skipped out on Vietnam receiving medical deferments for a purported bone-spur diagnosis and later told Howard Stern that avoiding STDs in the randy '60s and '70s was his own "personal Vietnam." Joe Biden received five student deferments and then, in 1968, was "disqualified from service because of asthma as a teenager."

Ron DeSantis, after his undergraduate years at Yale and Harvard Law School, joined the Navy during the turmoil of the Iraq War.

As Howard Altman and Emily Mahoney reported for the Tampa Bay Times in 2018:

During the surge, DeSantis served as a senior legal advisor to the SEAL who commanded Special Operations Task Force-West in Fallujah, Navy Capt. Dane Thorleifson.

DeSantis was responsible for helping ensure the missions of Navy SEALs and Army Green Berets in that wide swath of the Western Euphrates River Valley were planned according to the rule of law and that captured detainees were humanely treated, said his commander at the time.

"He did a phenomenal job," Thorleifson, 55, said of DeSantis in a Times/Herald interview. "It was a pretty complex time, with Iraqi sovereignty starting to take hold."

During this period, task force troops rounded up about 100 detainees, said Thorleifson. They were mostly military-aged males, some of which were found with suicide vests while others were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.

It was up to DeSantis, the lone lawyer with the Judge Advocate General Corps., or JAG, to not only assure these men were treated humanely and interrogated in accordance with the Geneva Conventions and U.S. military regulations, but to make sure that, when warranted, they were handed off to the proper legal authorities in Iraq for prosecution in that country's nascent judicial system, Thorleifson said.

Ron DeSantis's military service in Iraq is honorable. And, outside of political junkies, it's little known. Think of your only vaguely political sister-in-law or your golfing buddy who occasionally listens to Joe Rogan: Do they know that Ron DeSantis was awarded the Bronze Star in Iraq while most of his former Yale and Harvard Law classmates were mid-career on Wall Street or at white-shoe law firms?

If he hopes to win this fight, DeSantis's team had better make sure that every center-right voter in America knows at least one biographical fact about the Florida governor: When his country needed him, Ron DeSantis put on his nation's cloth.

DeSantis won the Bronze Star in Iraq serving the SEAL teams

"Cross-endorsements do not promise a lifetime of submission in politics, nor should they.

Politicians serve us, not the other way around, and they should expect competition when it comes to open seats and nominations. If Trump can't handle DeSantis, why would we expect him to defeat Joe Biden especially since Trump already lost to Biden once?

That's where we come to Trump's new argument that primaries are a new form of … wait for it …

ELECTION INTERFERENCE!!

Yes, those posts are in sequence; I pulled it from the Truth Social website myself to verify it.

Trump is arguing that DeSantis is committing "election interference" by interfering with Trump's attempt to win another GOP nomination. In other words, competitive elections are now "election interference" for Trump. And, one might extrapolate, Trump considers anything that prevents his victory to be "election interference."

That does put another gloss on the whole post-2020 election narrative from Team Trump, no?

So why didn't Trump trot that out when Tim Scott entered the race this week?

It's because Trump doesn't consider Scott a threat for the nomination, plainly. (He's hardly alone in that calculation, to be fair, although I think Scott could surprise some people.) Trump offered Scott a welcome to the primary fight, albeit with a self-promoting message, because it won't cost him anything.

Trump whining like the bully he is...

Is that really the context he's brought up election interference?

It's looked like he's claiming the multiple lawsuits/criminal cases are what he's claiming are part of that.

it's nice to see how afraid they are of Ron DeSantis

because they KNOW he would beat Biden, while they are rooting for Trump to lose once again.

If I were DeSantis, I think I'd announce that i would "explore options to make pardoning the unjustly vilified Jan 6 actors a day one priority...."

Make CMT attack from the left on that.

Some good stuff here if you're interested how he would be different when in office.

Looks like Mark Levin pretty much endorsed him.

And this is the BIG difference between the two. He doesn't claim to be perfect, admits mistakes BUT he learns from them and corrects course. If you don't believe you ever make mistakes or that nothing is ever your fault, you leave no room for learning or improving. People want a confident yet sometimes humble president...or at least know they have the capacity for it.

Who cares, it will be stolen no matter who the candidate is for at least half the states. Elections don't matter, what matters is who counts the votes.

Anyone that thinks DeSantis, with his massive war chest and meticulous gameplanning, is about to just fold like a cheap tent is drinking way too much kool-aid.

Seriously, what is it that has people so enamored with wanting a successful governor that utterly annihilated the Democrats in a former swing state to fail?

Oh, this isn't very smart. Pushaw bringing the heat all day for DeSantis. Trump selling Bud Light at Trump properties is not exactly a good look.

This is the disappointing level of stupidity I should have expected, but did not. The dude lost to biden. Blame cheating all you want (and trump doesn't have a solution for that either) but he lost. Why should desantis "wait his turn" if waiting means handing the country to the democrats for another 4 years?

The loyalty claim is just so stupid. Let's just do what's best for the country
