This is not a surprise. This is not disappointing. This is not unexpected. (snip)Keep in mind, the Florida legislature was pressured by the governor’s office to change the political sunlight laws – just so DeSantis could obfuscate his travel expenses and hide that he was flying around the country on private jets owned by billionaires and multinational corporations.(snip)That “insurgent underdog” spin is particularly laughable when you consider that Karl Rove, the RGA, Paul Ryan, Ed Rollins, Jeb Bush and the entire apparatus of the approved republican coalition are aligned with Ron DeSantis. What exactly is the party selected candidate running as an insurgent against?

Something seems fishy. Although I’m not a DeS supporter, this “fall” is too steep snd quick for my thinking.
Is he being sacrificed now to reposition the real candidate?

Sean, Karl Rove is probably a friend to you. To me, he's a chameleon puke who is a member of the Deep State Deep Swamp.

I didn't know about the Rove, Rollins connection but I did about the Bushes. That's all I needed to know. Wrong man, wrong time. Pity, I think he could have been great.

I do not trust Sundance. He's gone off.

DeDantis should have realized that this wasn't his year. Spinning his wheels, wasting money and effort that could be used helping Florida, and further building a reputation of accomplishments.

Insurgent against MAGA. The GOPe hates us; Trump is simply our representative.

He's not ready for primetime. Maybe 2028.

I think DeSantis tried to play both side of the fence, MAGA & traditional old GOP Republican (Bush, Rowe, etc.). You can't be both.

Well, Sundance has collected his pound of flesh. Masterful job of character assassination. Everything he said was probably true, but who knows. I will never trust the guy for this. I don't trust DeSantis, but I trust Sundance even less. Did he get paid for this? If anyone was behind this, I would trust them either. We don't need this.

Re #5, with all respect, can you point to something in his article that isn’t factual? His opinion/analysis , of course, is just that….but the information upon which his opinion/analysis is based? Does poster draw another conclusion from what is being reported? I would hate to think it was just more “shoot the messenger”. I have not seen any good news for DeSantis in any quarter.

The powers to be want both Trump AND Desantis eliminated, and stories like this help that become a reality. Trump is our pick but if the Deep State is successful at getting rid of Trump, Desantis would make an excellent President.

How naive does one have to be to not realize that this coalition needs a front man to groom and their agenda is not in line with the candidate's agenda? These well-known tricksters could not win but DeSantis could if republicans were gullible enough.

Sundance's obsession with Trump is borderline psychotic. DJT should get credit for diminishing the influence of the RINOs but he has messed up too many times that he is almost unelectable. And yes he slept with Stormy Daniel's.

I like Ron but appears not to be his year. With PT in his mid 70s and facing 4 trials it will take a miracle for him to win. But PT appears to be our best bet. I'll vote for anyone or anything running against Quid Pro Joe. I want my country back.

Don’t the anti-Trumpers know that we know them so well we could list them from memory? They fool none of us who have been here a long enough time.
As for Sundance, he admitted in 2016 that he was for Donald Trump. It has never been a secret. He doesn’t pretend to be “fair and balanced”. But he backs up his assertions and opinions with links to source material. Those who post unsupported snark here about President Trump can’t do that.
Shooting the messenger is so lame.

Reading something from the Sundance creature is like reading something from the Gateway Pundit.
Garbage.
Does Sundance have an actual name?
Or is he/she afraid to disclose it?
If not. Why not?

Probably for the same reason we all have noms de plume aka usernames.
