Trump lashes out at DeSantis, says he regrets his endorsement of him

[sneakypete]

LOL this kind of response is why I have to dismiss everything you say and can't take you seriously. Not only on this subject,  but everything.

Awwww,da poor Bay-Bay

Some folks are deliberately misrepresenting the 11th Commandment.  It does not say you cannot very strongly disagree with the policies advocated by another Republican, or the actions they have taken. Reagan did exactly that when he ran against Ford in 1976, and again when he ran against Bush in 1980.  Likewise, it is perfectly possible to disagree strongly with the policies or actions being advocated or taken by another Republican today without violating the 11 Commandment.

What it is about is not "speaking ill of another Republican".  In other words, don't attack the person, attack the argument. We all understand perfectly well exactly what that means here in TBR, and that's all the 11th Commandment is saying. 

It is entirely possible to have a battle for the soul of the Republican Party without juvenile name calling. That's an embarrassment, and the sign of a lack of coherent thinking or ability to articulate logical thoughts.

There's no valid reason that shouldn't have been followed in 2016 through today.  Name calling and personal attacks are simply laziness by those who don't want to take the time to lay out a coherent, logical argument.

[Maj. Bill Martin]

It is absolutely asinine, and those using it should know better.

I feel compelled to point out that everybody and their brother knew that Trump was running for president in 2024 months before he announced.  He'd play these little games like saying he has a big announcement to make but he has to wait for the right time, and that his supporters are going to be very happy when he makes it, etc. During that time, there were people working behind the scenes to put his campaign together, etc..  But for legal reasons, he held off on making a formal announcement until it was legally convenient for him to declare.

Now, when another potential candidate is doing the exact same thing he did, he's screaming that it is unfair.  He's just an absolute baby. If there is one thing that is consistent about Donald Trump, it is that he believes a different set of rules should apply to him then apply to everybody else.

Well... Those misusing it should know better.
Yes Reagan used the term to shield himself from GOP elites, throwing their own words back at them exactly as defined... As he purposed the party toward principled conservatism.

That's right.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Trump is Trump and if he wants to resort back to bullying and name calling that's up to him.  But people are tired of his crappola. DeSantis isn't campaigning he's addressing his constituents and remains in touch especially with those impacted by Ian.  He's doing his job @Right_in_Virginia.

I know you see DeSantis as a huge threat to Trump so if you want to try to make a good conservative  governor look bad, have at it. I don't care to participate in that game. 

Good news @libertybele  ----- after Tiny D refused to stand against the political weaponization of our justice system for his own political benefit, shitting on the 5,668,731 Floridians who voted for Trump in the process, you're going to keep your Governor.  Yeah!

The childishness apparently lives in Trumps most ardent supporter as well as Trump, I see. Another good reason to return to my vacation from vitriol and stupidity.

But just think of the schadenfreude when Trump becomes a three-time loser!  The excuses, whining, finger-pointing, and incessant vomiting of one bizarre conspiracy theory after another will be...delectable.

You know Trump admires Big D and doesn't think he is tiny. How about we just stop the squabbling and compare hand sizes for the win... Trump already thinks DeSantis is a big strong fellow that should go around without his jacket on.

This nickname didn't come from Trump @Sighlass   It came from from one of D's constituents while he was waving and trying to glad hand folks.  By the time he got to the end of the line folks had picked it up and we're having a fun time with it. D ducked into his car.

It'd be a hoot if someone went after Trump's hand size again just to trigger him.

If the GOP loses the next Presidential election,that will be the end of America because the left will take full advantage of it.


Congradulations,Anti-Trumpers,for letting the DNC pimp you  out.

Trump is not the savior you seem to think he is.

[LMAO]

The in your face hypocrisy of those who wouldn’t vote DeSantis but demand people vote for Trump

I think the GOP will be more divided in 2024 than in 2016

DeSantis can’t win the primary and Trump can’t win the general

Is it 2028 yet?  Lol

I get your point, and that's why I voted for him in 2016 and 2020.  However....

In my opinion, Trump is now destroying the only real organized opposition to leftism, and is attempting to replace it with a form of populism that will end with him.  So when he's gone...there won't be anything left to slow them down.

His foreign policy towards Russia is scaring the hell out of me as well.  Not that I believe there is collusion, just that my views are so 180 from his.

I just can't bring myself to vote for that.  I'm just hoping to hell we nominate someone else.

[LMAO]

But they are convinced he is. I don’t think DeSantis is, either

Sucks, but that's exactly how I see it too.

And Biden gets another term. Our time will come again as all storms pass. But we’ll have to go through another 4 years of incompetent “firsts”

At this rate, I'm not holding out hope for an election in 2028.

TRULY.

[LMAO]

What’s strange is all this vitriol against someone who hasn’t even announce a run

He won’t now

[LMAO]

The GOP is much more divided than the Democrats

[corbe]

   DeSantis has answered the Call of his Country before AND will again, IMHO. 
   Trump will have pizzed off so many MORE GOP Voters this year and be left with only his hard core supporters.
