The DeSantites were positive the media wouldn't do this to him because he's not Trump. It's all to drive clicks and division.

Of course the media will do this to him. It's just disappointing that Trump is doing it and this is all he has. He sure as hell doesn't want to talk policy or debate. It's also disappointing that Trump is colluding with the same media that has treated him so horribly even though they will clearly turn on him yet again.

Whatever though. I'm happy to support DeSantis because of what he stands for and what he is doing. I'll be in the boat until he either wins or is eliminated. I'll vote for the R either way but honestly at this point I'd rather take Haley over Trump.

---

And you can support or vote for whoever you want. Obviously.

DeSantis has said some pretty unkind things about Trump too.

Again, it's politics. It gets dirty.

Not that I blame them since there is nothing policy related that they can actually discuss. Jr. high insults is all they have left.

That's a long list. The depravity of the media. The disgusting nature of the Dems. The backstabbing within his own Party for the most part. The lawsuits against him are ridiculous. I mean I voted for the guy last time and will vote for him again if he is the candidate so I'm not sure what you are talking about.

I will say, I'll take little man tip toeing in boots over old man with poopy pants any day

Quote:

"Considering the fact that Politico Magazine admittedly spent money to consult 'boot experts' to run this hit piece on DeSantis tells you all you need to know about their 'journalism.' The governor doesn't pad his boots, but if he ever needed anything to line a pet cage or fold up and wedge under a table leg, that would be the highest and best use for Politico Magazine."

I like how they are making it a story that "This is what DeSantis is talking about!" because he answered a question about his boots and looked at the interviewer like he was an idiot.

Leavitt is Trump's spokesperson. This is really what his campaign is about now.

Haha this is so dumb. He could wear clear stripper heels if he gets the job done. Im "almost" 5'10" and where cowboy cut boots a lot, find them better than roper cut. Never thought about height, but yeah guess it makes me taller. Who knew, I was compensating!!!!

Urban Ag said:

I don't wear cowboy boots that often anymore but those heels don't look much different than the ones on my Ariats or Lucchese's. And I'm 6'3", I don't need any help.

it's not the boot heel but the lifts he's wearing inside:

Desantis looks more and more uncomfortable every time I see him.
I can't prove it, but I still feel like he was forced to run in 2024 nearly against his will.
Ron used to swat away heavier stuff effortlessly and gracefully, those days seemed to have passed.
He is a great governor though.

The media is actually hiring "shoe experts" to quote in articles to back up this Trump pushed bull*****

LOL, you think this is what the media would do to Desantis? This is just dumb, which is why Trump is pushing it - it's his specialty. The stuff that the left does is what Trump is bad at, which is why he is where he is, doing what he is doing. DeSantis fights the actual fight while Trump talks about being fat, small hands, and heels.

This is all fun and games until Trump gets pounded in the general election by whatever Dem gets the manufactured votes to beat him again. Or if Trump somehow does win only to be dead man walking by the Swamp.

The GOP is so fooked, which is also why America is done. No way a Trump ever gets back in the White House. Swamp ain't letting that happen. And after this election ends, we will just get Trump, Jr. to take over for Dad and kill any chance we ever have of getting the Presidency again.

Agreed. Most grown adults would be embarrassed to support a unserious clown that was pulling this kind of stuff. Apparently not everyone though.

PBD asked him directly about it and Desantis said wtf are you talking about these are off the shelf Luccheses

We are living in a clown world.

So let me get this straight….

1) Stupid rumor about some "lifts" that Ron doesn't need. Presumably promulgated by Trump people.
2) Ron gets asked about this bizarre conspiracy and dismisses it.
3) Trump people then point a finger a Ron for discussing such a vain and nonsensical topic
4) This (non)topic gets 3 pages on Texags

BTW, apparently the Yale Baseball Team from over 20 years ago is in on the conspiracy!

annie88 said:

I don't know how tall he is nor do I care, but DeSantis ain't 5'11" maybe close to 5'10"

They could end this easily.

Have him measured in his stocking feet.

---

I dont give a **** whether he is 5'11 or 5'10 and why do you ?

I care about having the best most effective conservative running the country and our party. The more the Trumpers play this stupid game the more pathetic that all look. Why don't the trumpers try arguing issues or policy, or how to defeat the cancer that is liberalism? Uh they cant because Trump is to scared to debate or talk about anything that really matters.

This stuff to me just reeks of low confidence and desperation on the part of Trump and his campaign. They'll talk shoes today, and maybe hair tomorrow ? But never will they talk about anything the really matters to the country.

Trump and his band of boot lickers have become pathetic

This is the part where Team Trump comes out and screams at DeSantis' folks to "unify" as they openly work with the Left to spread lies about him. What? Can't take a joke? DeSantis is just so awkward.

Man does DeSantis look out of shape.

Btw, the irony of DeSantis supporters complaining about Trump's mean tweets is something else. MAGA-1 destroying MAGA-2.

All of you mocked everyone else who said Trump was a cruel little man who cheapened the presidency and did not have respect for what he should represent.

You made this food. Now go ahead and eat it With your pudding fingers.

As a heads up, your guy in the White House just pooped his pants again.

Wait until the Trump congregation learns that Jim Jordan is also 5'8. I am sure they will be just as moderately concerned, and it will be front page news.
