It’s not an accident that corporate media are trying to pit former President Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis against each other. Among Republicans, the former president and current governor of Florida are popular for their policies and willingness to fight the media. That means they’re a threat to the establishment.But as clever as the media figures running the operation apparently thought they were, neither of the top Republicans took the bait, understanding that it only serves their political opponents’ interest to have them squabbling.Still, it was interesting to see it go down. When Trump made an off-hand remark about politicians who wouldn’t say whether they got the booster

They're both on the team, and the same page. They are just going to go about it a little different from each other.

In this age of world wide 1984 oppression, I am just glad both are here now and are able to be as effective as they are. I hope both can be even more effective against the most blatant evil I have ever seen in positions of power.

Divide et impera.
This won't work because Trump wants revenge on dem & DeSantis as an ally.

Time for the "Trump is unelectable" chorus to roll around. Haven't heard that old tune since before he was ELECTED. The country has learned a hard lesson about voter fraud and the consequences of Leftists in power. WE won't let that happen again, (as in More R's than D's in America for the first time since 1930). Or we could go with Mittens Romney again. Remember? No one wanted him but he was 'electable'. Right?

They know that a Trump/DeSantis ticket will kick butt.

Anyone who believes that DJT is not seething at the lack of public support from DeSantis is in denial. This is who he is for better or for worse. Otherwise his #1 henchman Roger Stone would not of said this:/"Ron DeSantis Yale Harvard fat boy can't get out of his own way. Not smart. Not honest and not going to be president."

Democrats are so blatantly obvious. They go after whom they fear and they fear no one like President Trump and Gov. DeSantis. This is a winning ticket. Americans want to right a wrong. And they trust both of these men. President Trump proved himself by doing more good for this country than any President in my lifetime. Gov. DeSantis is a great ally and will be the right hand man he needs. This is a dymanic duo and I believe they both know it and will work to do what is right for the country. They are the best hope we have of restoring sanity to this country. It won’t be easy. Democrats will do anything to prevent them and they will be aided and abetted, once again, by their fellow travelers outside the country. The globalists will pull out all the stops because they cannot allow the United States to get back on its feet and lead again. Pray that God protects them because the evil forces in this world will not accept defeat. They will destroy it all if they believe they cannot win.

Local Fox Tampa station, only useful for weather, is reporting a national poll this morning thst only 27% of Americans want Trump to run in 2024. I thought I had heard fake news before, but on January 21 - they have won the year!

I'm in my seventies all my voting years I tried and became tired of hoping to find candidates that were good for all of us. Once in my entire life I found one before DJT that was Ronald Reagan. I threw votes away on the likes of McCain, Romney and Bush. I remember my high hopes in Barry Goldwater seeing the news media assassinate him. At this point I'm not abandoning President Trump in the middle of the disaster that's happening now along with DeSantis but expect more plenty more of this because they are feared men that the left want destroyed. MAGA

DeSantis would be wasted as VP, an honorary job like spare tire. I want him right here in FL, and when he's term limited I would work for him for senator. He's pressers are great and he would be great on the senate floor.

Divide and conquer is not an empty phrase. The dems use it in everything that they do. They talk against racism but they support all things racist , BLM, CRT, 1619 Project, are in your face examples. They are doing it with Trump and De Santis. The dems base gobbles this junk up. That's why they're dems. Not very bright.

Both are proud men, but they are also intelligent. Which is more than I can say for Biden or any of the possible alternatives in the Democrat party.

Is this an opportunity to point out to the Never Trumpers that Jeb Bush had his chance as governor of Florida to be the Ron DeSantis of 2004 and 2008, 2012 and 2016. He was not a stalwart against Obamacare, loss of freedom, or illegal immigration. There are reasons Trump trounced Jeb Bush. Because he was not (is not) a Ron DeSantis.

Beat me to it, #9. Ann’s anti-Trump column yesterday soured me on her thoughts.

I'm so sorry but I don't think Trump is for the people. J6 political persecutions and the death jabs. He refuses to acknowledge how many people are being killed. I could make a longer argument, but it wouldn't matter.
