DeSantis Rebukes Trump, Saying Effective Leaders ‘Take Incoming’

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has finally taken his own swipe at Donald Trump after enduring a barrage of name-calling and attacks as the two Republicans position themselves for the 2024 presidential campaign.

“When you’re leading, when you’re getting things done, you take incoming fire, that’s just the nature of it,”

“At the end of the day I would just tell people to go check out the scoreboard from last Tuesday night,”. DeSantis said at a news conference Tuesday in Fort Walton Beach, Florida.

So De Sanctimonious is saying he lead Republicans to victory while Trump failed, I need this GOP civil war to happen

Some otondos that just started following the GOP after Trump got elected would soon be here to tell us how they know a lot more than life long American Republicans and conservatives. You would know them by their posts that includes vocabularies like RINOs, TDS, Devils, Rats, baby killer, paedophile e.t.c grin

Thing now is why are they all suddenly realizing what GOP has become and what could they do differently, these guys are not decently better than Trump and his MAGA crowd, I just feel they need a new figure head to continue their hubris.

Exactly. Republicans have spent a generation building up great propaganda networks and denouncing education. So their voters generally vote against their own self interest because they are told to.

When H. Clinton ran for president, I took some vacay time and decided to volunteer for her campaign in NC. Because I generally don't vacation in the states, always fly somewhere else, I decided to drive from MA to NC just to get a better understanding of the US. I did the trip in 3 days, linking up with friends in various cities. While I was driving I decided to listen to some talk radio, learn something along the way. Unfortunately most of the stations were conservative leaning. Holy Sh*t, By the end of the trip, I almost believed Hilary was the Devil herself.

I don't even fully blame Republican voters. The Republican party is grift. Some leaders hustle their voters to make money and in order to keep them they offer incendiary speech which keeps them angry and coming back. Look at Alex Jones and what he does to hawk his supplements and whatever crap he's selling. At some point the Dems are going to have to confront it.

Its always funny when they claim Democrats control the media when its otherwise, Republican are only ones who openly have media that propagate hate and bigotry daily, people like Tucker Carlson don't stay a day without calling for civil war, they keep cultivating all types of bigotry against minorities for votes, recently losers that call themselves red pillers have been pretty much part of their base, within conservative base these days once a person is bigoted enough they are promoted.

Ah Muslim shocked

This is part of the bigotry sanpipita was pointing out earlier some Trump supporters here support Trump because they feel he is against muslims.
The MAGA base will not like this America must remain a Christian nation. This is one of the reasons they dislike immigrants grin

All forms of bigotry makes Trump and current GQP appealing to them, bigger issue is they don't think the bigotry also applies to them.

Dave Chappelle says Trump's honesty in making claims that rich and powerful have take advantage of the American system makes Trump loved by people, he added a lot of working class American are struggling, is this not the argument Left makes? if they know all this why are they against the Left taxing billionaires and their social policies, these people are literally against student debt forgiveness.

Did you just get into US politics? Everything you write sounds like a regurgitation of poor Twitter memes. My advice, think deeper, diversify your reading sources, think more critically and ask more questions about some of the things you hear so you won't continually sound like an idiot.
A couple of factual problems in your post.
1.) Florida has been trending Red for some time. It hasn't been the biggest swing state in awhile. In fact there has been a debate where to spend less money there and more on states like = Arizona, Georgia and NC.
2.) Crime. The crime rate started going up under Trump. In fact Crime is disproportionately higher in Red States than Blue. This has been a messaging problem for Dems.

But this is the problem with Republicans. You really can't define any concrete policy, you really have no answers, you just keep regurgitating the same talking points or lies, no matter how contradictory. I'll ask you again, name one policy Republicans have enacted that has benefited the US in the last 50 years.

You will be surprised most of them have no idea about American politics, most are just half educated Trump stans who got interested in American politics because the bigotry Trump and current GQP stands for appeals to them, that's why I don't bother myself to have any debate whatsoever with them, they are always regurgitating talking points of far right and white nationalists its very easy to spot it.

Bar messaging the media knows how to put spotlight on states controlled by Dems, they were here talking about crime rates in New York till I posted that of Oklahoma no pim, they say the problem is wokeness, I wonder if red States are woke too, Republicans get pass with most things.

I taught I listed states with FG built Seaport and Airports??. Or were the ones in Rivers state and Delta built by state? Try dey read o bro.. I'm asking u, why was Lagos booming more than ever post BAT era? How come Lagos became suddenly great during and after BAT.?? Just wait let Lekki port, Dangote Refinery, Eko Atlantic, Imota Rice Mill, and so many industries ongoing in Lekki Free trade zonw come into full gear, if FG will even see Lagos break light.

Show some respect to BAT bro. All candidates have once talk trash, u can't judge them with it,. Did PO not said he will encourage importation?? Will it not crash naira d more?? So baba rest, leave cheap point alone. Accept reality. PO only has intergrity, he is not match for Amaechi, El Rufai talkless of Donald Duke become bring him close to BAT. It's an Insult.

Are ports in other places functional? anyway I did all this arguments in 2015, I will stay away from it this time, let people do whatever they want, shebi Tinubu is a genius, same Tinubu that can't attend debates to at least boast of his so called ideas and genius? you all will cry and learn again, governance isn't by lies and propaganda, people tried it with buhari and it ended in tears.

Can u please list out FG project in Lagos not in cities like Akwa Ibom, Rivers state, Delta.


Moreover why are these FG in Lagos not booming like we have pre BAT era. How come Lagos is booming swallowing many state post BAT era. baba leave tantrum politiking aside, BAT is a governance genius. I know say e thief money but u can't bring him close to the crop of chop chop politician we have today. Nigha is an admistrative creator and know how user of Fortune ,spinning it to give better output.


See I wish I have him in a state like Rivers with so much resources, unfortunately Amaechi was the last Governor Rivers state had. This one there is more or less a money miss road man. Imagine SanwoOlu, El Rufai, Ganduje in Rivers state,. U think wike see their back?? Tell me one thing Wike has done to bring in revenue for example. U should know where I'm coming from. I'm talking of wealth creators not wealth spender . Donald Duke and d like unfortunately he can't enforce succesors like Fashola..


Leave Lagos extortion, u can't take that away from drivers union, it's even worst in Anambra, forget propaganda and unofficial tantrums grin

Let's talk factual politics.. I repeat BAT still remain ur ideal Politician. If not for his health and age, he is the best for the nation, or Amaechi.. no now PO is not close to those league. Presidency is not only for intergrity. Be rational bro, be rational.

FG built seaport in Lagos, there's an international airport how many other States have this? really no point arguing since some of you prefer propaganda and dishonesty, I used to argue with people about buhari in 2015 we all know how it has turned out, Tinubu is a genius yet he plans printing more money for the economy, he says debts isn't an issue, sometimes its time that wins argument, should Tinubu mistakenly becomes president, y'all will learn, governance isn't by lies and propaganda I thought buhari's presidency was a teachable moment for people like you.

So IGR is the only thing u see in that post? Igr by taxing people, I don't think I've been outside the shores of this Continent, UK, US for example, u LL pay d damn tax for whatever bro. Don't even go there. I don't mean extortion like the one on NURTW , I mean legit tax net. Now let me ask u, is Lagos and Kadunna not sweating u with cool business environment?? Govt with enough money to make worthy infrastructure. Today Lagos is talking if Intracity railine, free trade zones, Seaport and Atlantic City partnership among other big state financed Investment, u feel those things comes cheap?? How many has ur FG done . Guy calm it for BAT o. That guy is not ur regular. I take him as a average political + governance genius, the like of Amaechi, El-Rufai, Donald Duke. BAT is only a smarter politician who has soiled his hands while playing politics.

I respect the Political intergrity of PO but not in terms of governance and cerebral acumen, he is no match for the names I listed above.
Let's dead the matter here.

Bye

Yet Lagos is the least livable city in the world, some of you are just high on propaganda, FG has more infrastructure in place in Lagos than any Nigerian state yet you ask what FG has done, most things Lagos has were mostly benefited during its time as nation's capital, wonder what's good about a business environment where people are basically extorted with touts everywhere.

Ure the one clever by half. It was BAT that made the IGR skyrocketed to that thing u called massive via expanding and encouraging tax aided revenue bringing in working policy, that the succesors now see enough to work is one of the reasons why we always praise BAT but foolish people blike u LL always yarn dust telling us BAT is taking glory.


Trust me BAT can't have onitsha main market, the central and commercial city of Igbo land and not make it a National fortune. Idea they say turns things around.. shebi clueless FG were sandfilling Lekki corridor until BAT came with the idea of aiding Eko Atlantic. Today it's a huge conglomerate on its own. So rest bro. Ur man lacks urban regenerational ideas. I don't have issue with PO candidacy but don't bring in close to BAT.

People who comes close are Rotimi Amaechi, Donald Duke, El rufai just that BAT outsmarted those folks as a better strategic politicians than them.. check out what Elrufai is doing with Kaduna IGR, how he met it, what he has done and how he is leaving it.. set aside his religious bigotry.. these guys are above PO tooth for tooth. PO is just younger , healthy than BAT. The rest na just vibe.

IGR isn't good governance, any idiot can raise IGR, they basically tax people to death, IGR but no good hospitals and roads, stop allowing politicians deceive you with mere achievement that worth nothing

Something to note here is that the strategy of Democrats helping crazy people win their primaries turned out to be a good strategy because they won some seats thanks to that too.

Candidates have helped Democrats generally, many Democrats candidates over performed Biden's 2020 numbers in their districts.

He is worse than Trump he is already behaving like a dictator in Florida the dem coalition must stop him in 2024.

He will only present a new challenge to Democrats like Trump did in 2016, he is still very beatable, moreover his style of politics isn't too different from Trump, he was against mask mandates, these are things that made Trump lose

Dems are performing way better than any midterms since 2002
And the reason 2002 was that great was because of post 9-11

Look it up and tell me dems ain’t indeed blowing them out

There is no red wave anywhere.

Gerrymandering is what has given Republicans any competitive edge, places like Florida gave them a head start, Democrats have done well to limit the damage, they flipped three seats in Ohio, Lauren Boeboert might lose her seat to a Dem too
