Sarasota Tribune: Desantis used office as leverage to get endorsements

Top aides to Gov. Ron DeSantis were involved in rounding up endorsements for his presidential campaign from members of the Florida Legislature during a time when lawmaker's bills and budget priorities were at the mercy of the governor's office
quote:
A Republican lawmaker says DeSantis’ top budget official called earlier this month to discuss the lawmaker endorsing DeSantis’ presidential campaign. The lawmaker and a GOP consultant who was told about the endorsement conversation with DeSantis' budget chief Chris Spencer immediately after it happened said the call was inappropriate and raised ethical questions.

Trump campaign took $250 million in donations from supporters that it said would go to an election defense fund to pay for legal fees to overturn the 2020 presidential election results. But the fund was never actually created...
Instead, the money went to the Save America political action committee, she said, and the money went from there to several pro-Trump organizations which are headed by former officials close to Donald Trump's inner circle.

Ah yes, the Sarasota Tribune. A paper with a flawless reputation that has no bias against DeSantis, or any Republican, whatsoever.

That's why on Aug. 23, voters should choose Crist over Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried in the Democratic gubernatorial primary. They should make Crist the party’s nominee to face Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis, a chronically divisive leader, in November.

Branch Trumpidians using leftist sources to slander DeSantis as usual.

Forgive me I forgot that any story, poll, or interview that is negative for Desantis is automatically thrown out. And it’s the opposite for Trump right? Lol useful idiots.

It's only a matter of time before they agree with the NAACP and start citing their press releases.

I'm pretty sure I saw where one of them did bring it up.

At this point I’m just going to respond how I think you want me to respond.
Good! I hope he uses the frick out of that office and sends Trump to Guantanamo.

DeSantis supporters aren't bombarding this forum with left-wing sites and media personalities who criticize Trump.
Ironic that you call other people idiots. You worship a guy who said Stacy Abrams is better than Brian Kemp and gave Fauci a medal.

What source of media would you call legit if it put out a story that was negative for Ron?

Another Trump liberal quoting a liberal rag newspaper.

I really don’t think DeSantis gives a rat’s arse about local endorsements - other than those from large national donors (which he is getting).

Trump’s campaign operates similarly to Democratic campaigns. They tell on themselves with their accusations.
Trump’s team had a plan to snag the majority of Florida endorsements.
When it didn’t happen, the accusations about DeSantis using undue influence started.
