This is just ridiculous, folks. Yesterday on his “Truth Social” platform, the former President of the United States proved one more time that he has the emotional maturity of an average 3rd-grader by repeating another false smear of Ron DeSantis that was used by the sleazy Nikki Fried during last year’s gubernatorial election in Florida:
Here’s how Byron York characterized Mr. Trump’s latest deep dive into the muck as he obviously becomes ever-more panicked about the prospect of being challenged by the Florida Governor for the 2024 GOP nomination:
“Going lower and lower,” indeed. York’s conclusion that “Trump seems sure to further alienate many Republicans” is the no-brainer of the year, at least so far. We can be sure Trump and his utter lack of self-discipline will top this one in the weeks to come, of course.
For his own part, DeSantis refused to take Trump’s bait, responding calmly when it was raised in a press conference Wednesday morning:
The scariest part about Trump’s ongoing candidacy this time is not that he might actually win the GOP nomination: It’s that he won’t win it and decide to run a Ross Perot-style 3rd party candidacy and blow everything up out of pure spite.
It seems inevitable, doesn’t it?
If you can still support this kind of idiocy, good for you. Not this guy.
That is all.
Hope he backs off this; it’s incredibly self-destructive IMHO. Target the left/Biden; that’s where the ire should be directed.
I have been a Trump supporter since the day he came down the escalator but it has become pretty darn hard to support this kind of crap.
