As Ron DeSantis gears up for a likely 2024 White House bid — with or without Donald Trump in the race — the Florida governor is winning over some of the former president’s biggest benefactors.

DeSantis has attracted the attention of some of the nation’s wealthiest Republican donors, including many who were key financiers of Trump’s reelection bid or backers of high profile Republican candidates and causes, according to POLITICO analysis of campaign finance data.

Though many donors are focused on November, when the governor is up for reelection, DeSantis’ fundraising signals that he is both a viable 2024 candidate who may not need the former president’s backing and one who is sapping some financial support from Trump.

Everybody that has any money ends up backing multiple candidates. I mean that is how it works.

I mean this is the oldest play in the playbook.

Divide and conquer.

These nitwits want to pit these two against each other because that’s the only chance to defeat either.

The nomination is Trump’s if he wants it. And I sure don’t see any sign of him not running.

The only decision DeSantis has is to run if Trump bows out.

I voted for Trump twice and would happily vote for him again, but there is nothing wrong with looking at other candidates - especially with Trump non-committal on whether he will run again.

I do not believe this will turn into a Trump vs. DeSantis.

Bullshat. We are having a debate on this forum. That is all. Take in information, then make your decision.

Some of you are incredibly thin skinned.

Trump doesn't need money. The news media can't stop covering him and people HATE the news media.

Sapping financial support? Who speaks like this? Is the lincoln project helping Rollins with ready for ron?

This is the swamp speaking.

No thanks, swamp.

Ron may indeed be stealing all of the billionaire backers of Trump. But he crawled on this hilltop on Trump's coattails making a campaign commercial of borderline Trump adoration doing it.

Ron's true colors are about full Paul Ryaned out. No thanks, you keep him Florida.

I do not know what DeSantis will do. But a year ago he said if Trump runs he will not.

The rumor was that Desantis and Trump were supposed to knock each other out. The Jan. 6th committee's goal is to make Trump ineligible. That eliminates the possibility and makes Desantis the nominee of choice for the swamp.

Well that's a very telling thing. Didn't deep pockets GOPs get behind Bush, Cruz and Rubio to stop Trump.

Creme rises to the top people.

And via all of the Trump was uninvited secret GOPe meetings the GOPe/swamp could give a rats arse if they splinter and cause a schism.

This is evidence they know they have a plan to stop Trump. And force feed us who the swamp wants-DeSantis with Pence or Nikki as VP.

If Ron was truly MAGA and not controlled by the neverTrumper GOPe treasure chest. He would not be forcing himself via his ready for ron. As he playacts he is just working on 2022 and running for Governor of Florida.

If he truly were MAGA he would not fracture the party to please his overlords the GOPe.

Oh yes DeSantis is definitely part of the swamp. Never mind standing up to the groomers at Disney and passing the infamous “don’t say gay bill” or being the only governor to keep his state open 1 month after the pandemic started. I mean support who you want I don’t care, but untrue statements like this to fit your own personal narrative is absolutely retarded. You are literally doing the same shite the liberals do.
