But I think his head got really big, then the Rino's took advantage of him and convinced him he could take down the GOAT.
He was the Rino's only hope.


The simple answer is the correct answer IMO. He could not resist the money. Hell the Murdoch book deal made him a millionaire. Before running he probably had a net worth less than $500K. Ron has never been a rich and neither was Casey. Coming out of the primary he will probably be worth 10-15 million. He and his family are now set up. I can't blame him.

All these DeSantis haters would be kissing his arse if he would have wanted until 2028.


I told them Trump would lead them into the left wing. And here we are.

This is the nonsense you have to tell yourself because: 1) You like Ron, 2) Trump told you to hate him, and 3) Despite liking Ron and knowing how good of a job he would do, you're still voting for Trump for whatever reason.


This right here.

This place was a DeSantis lovefest right up until Trump felt threatened by his success and turned on him.

MAGA has no values. It turns wherever Trump goes.

They have no value nor any spine. They support the most liberal spending president of my lifetime.

Exactly.

People who were supporting Ron Paul 10 years ago now cant stop sniffing the crotch of a ghetto orange clown who wants to spend their kids into poverty.

DeSantis is demonstrably more conservative than Trump, has an impeccable track record of success, crushed Democrats in the third largest state and one of the diverse states laying out a blueprint for how it’s done

Maybe people viewed DeSantis as a viable alternative to the guy who lost to Joe Biden

She’s trying to resolve her cognitive dissonance. That puts her light years ahead of the Trumpfags.

At this point, I think the ideal outcome would be for Ron to beat Nikki badly enough that she drops out and for him to be in position-- God forbid-- to be the R nominee if the globos succeed in taking Trump out.

This appears unlikely to happen.

But as much as I think it was a mistake for Ron to run this time, I don't like seeing the big money lining up to position Haley as they currently are. Trump is a given at this point barring a lawfare coup, so the most important priority to my mind is keeping Haley out of 2nd place.

This is the simple answer

The simple answer is he thought he did a great job and would make a better President.

He’s right on both but we are unlikely to find out that is true any time soon.

I would love to know how someone running for President makes $10M.
