Trump is poking Ron to see if he can be drug into the mud with him. Trump knows that the mud is his domain and he is difficult to beat there. Ron seems to know this, as well, and isnt falling for it. This was the right response and will resonate with moderates and light republicans.

Probably because he's actually playing chess and not taking the bull in a china shop approach that Trump seems to be taking. One man lashes out at everything that moves while the other one appears calm, cool and collected. Which one would the American people rather have as their Republican nominee?

He will wait until he announces to start throwing haymnakers. That is the smart play.

And yet here's your second anti-Trump post of the day.

He was taking a gentleman shot at Trump by saying he was re-elected and Trump wasn’t.

While Trump blasts BDR like a true a-hole, DeSantis leans on his record and doesn't play in to that middle school garbage.


Well it's what adults do.

I personally think Trump's attacks on DeSantis are going to benefit him greatly whether he runs on 24 or 28. Trump is the master at petty personal attacks designed to humiliate you and get you off of your game. Just like democrats. He'll weather Trump's storm and be the better man/candidate for it while Trump will continue to sink and all but the petty, sophomoric type get tired of his antics and step to more adult discussions and leadership types.

The only thing that Trump is accomplishing is taking the right and dividing them into 2 camps. One camp that will never support Trump and another that will never support DeSantis.

Go ahead and congratulate the next dem President because Trump is ensuring they get the advantage.

At least not yet

This is a huge clue that Desantis is establishment.

This lame talking point that Trump is a loser might sound good in some consultants office.

Most people in this country believe the 2020 election was rigged. Both parties. Half just don't care because Trump.

Among Republican primary voters though? They know Trump was robbed. They believe it in their souls. Probably 80% of them.

You are not going to make a I'm a winner, he's a loser argument against Trump in that pool of voters.

Is Desantis' going to make a "all the cases were dismissed" argument too?

Not a good start for Desantis.

There are glaring clues that Trump is also establishment now

He can no longer be considered and anti establishment candidate now that he has a record that shows otherwise

Because those voters are delusional and ignorant.

We're at a point where idiots are bold enough to think they're right because there are more of them. A true idiocracy.

Trump isn't seasoned. At all. Trump is the doofus giving interviews to Bob Woodward and Maggie Haberman expecting them to be fair. Any sane person would say hell no.

Maybe one day he will learn. But he is in his late 70s, probably not.

Trump is attacking Ron for a reason. There’s no bad blood. This is the politics business. What’s the angle? We’ll have to wait and see.
