Trump reportedly 'f---ing hates' Ron DeSantis

This is a hit piece??? I find it hard to believe as Trump launched DeSantis' career and got him elected. 

Trump reportedly 'f---ing hates' Ron DeSantis

As former President Donald Trump possibly eyes a 2024 run, a new report suggests there's one other potential contender whose popularity he really "resents": Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R).

A report from Vanity Fair this week delves into how various Republicans are "testing the waters" for the 2024 presidential primaries in case Trump doesn't decide to seek the GOP nomination, and among the likely contenders in that scenario would be DeSantis. But the report describes the fact that the Florida governor's "biggest challenge" may be his "fraught relationship" with the 45th president.

"Trump f---ing hates DeSantis," a Trump confidant told Vanity Fair. "He just resents his popularity."

Earlier this year, a 2024 straw poll taken at the Western Conservative Summit saw DeSantis slightly ahead of Trump, 74 percent to 71 percent. An unnamed "prominent Republican" told Vanity Fair that Trump tells people that he "made Ron," and the report says the former president is irritated with DeSantis because he feels he doesn't get enough credit for that. Trump himself told Vanity Fair that DeSantis is a "good guy" and that "he gives me good credit."..........

From Vanity Fair via Yahoo news. 

Consider the source.

Indeed, I thought it was an interesting liberal angle.

They lie.

    I don't know why so many dismiss it right out of hand even considering the sources. 
    It's certainly seems plausible to this Trumpaphobe.

Dismissing this report immediately because of its source is no more valid than rushing to accept it immediately because of its subject.

Unfortunately this is consistent with what we've all seen of Trump's character; he can't stand for anyone to outshine him and will stop at nothing -  including severe damage to the R party - to destroy anyone who might steal his spotlight.  This is exactly why I argue that Trump must declare early if he's going to run; if he competes again in a contested primary his narcissism will create a disaster.

It is fake news!

It's weak tea a child could see thru.

Yes he's going to run and lose again.  He convinced the Republicans he beat Joe Biden, and they will follow him to whatever end.  I hope Clarence Thomas intends to serve until he is dead.

Not the first time MSM has used this tactic.  How better to help derail your enemies by initiating false accusations, and start bad blood amoung allies of your opposition.

VF....Resorting to 4th grade tactics I see.  Stay Classy.../s

I am of course, not privy to actual interactions between DeSantis and Trump, but if you count the public comments each has said about each other, you'd see that this probably bullshit.

Because 100% of comments that DeSantis and Trump have made about each other have been glowingly positive. If there is bad blood they are sure doing a damned good job hiding it.

And you know I am no big Trump fan.

And the sheer fact, I have never seen a more driven obsession ever than what the MSM wants to do to destroy Trump.

No named sources, no evidence and assertions that fall right in line with the media's Trump meme. Same old crap.

Average MSM reporter....

Still, have no doubt that DeSantis will not be immune to 'Candidate' Trump's attacks during the Primaries.

Of course, its politics. Recreating the Cruz/Trump fiasco is probably the intent of the hit piece.

You know someone terrifies the leftists when they say Trump hates him.

Stone and Pecker have been in the bullpen for 4 years now.  They should be tanned and well rested by 2024.

Praise anyone that might defeat Trump at the beginning.  Then gut them afterward, to ensure a democrat keeps the office.  Not so difficult to see, with at least some intelligence applied.
