Whomp whomp, now time for his little ass to run back home to Florida to continue to make our state worse, fuck DeSantis.

- He's term limited, so not for much longer

  I've been voting against the right for 20+ years in this state, they'll just vote for whichever (R) is up next, Nicki Fried might have a shot but I'm not counting on it, either way she's got my vote, or whomever is going against the (R).

  Already rumors his wife is going to run for Governor in 2026.

- Probably pretty hard to run in those lifts, he'll likely have to mechanically stagger back home awkwardly.
  
  36
  
  Reminds me of the Psychlos from Battlefield Earth. Awkwardly walking slowly through every scene they are in because of the boots/stilts that were part of the costume.

- Sorry, bad for Florida, but still better than him in the White House.

Bye loser.
Nikki isn't going to win either. I like that she is hitting Trump on his mental state and other problems, but she'll never win the primary over Trump. It's a cult.

84
- Half of her supporters said in one poll that they'd vote for Biden instead of Trump if she doesn't win, I want her to hang in as long as she can!
  
  82
- I can only assume her play is in hope that Trump’s criminal and civil cases catch up and make her the back up choice.
  
  DeSantis voters are probably mostly going to Trump.

The truth is he still thinks he can win, but his feet hurt so much from walking in heels all day, and he hasn't felt the sweet sweet flavor of pudding on his fingers in what seems like forever.

Endorses Trump.

- He should have to suck Trumps testicles publicly like Christy had to
  
  36
  
  Don't forget that weasely video of Cruz stumping for trump on the phones in 2016 looking like he was dying.

  "Meatball sub"

  Didn’t Christy basically tell people ( without saying it directly ) to vote for Biden when he dropped his campaign? Or did the internet just catch the headline and not listen to his speech?

- What a fucking bitch LMAO
  
  24
It's okay when he aborts.

47
- They should make him carry it for the full term, hemorrhaging all the way until it eventually kills the entire campaign due to wholly preventable options, which he prevented.
  
  33
We don't have a clear path to victory

That this can possibly be true after coming second in the first and only contest goes to show how much of a farce the whole thing was from the start.

The Mouse beat Desantis

36
- And that's why you don't fuck with the Mouse
  
  12
- Lmao I call Mickey Mouse “The Mouse” too.

Loser.

- Yup. I’m voting Haley and then Brandon.
  
  10
- Been voting this way for 25 years in AZ. I always suspected the number of registered Republicans was skewed because of this.

Loser

- Why make the exact same comment 2 hours apart?

  Someone with a considerable amount of enthusiasm?

If only Desantis had added a few more inches to his lifts.

16
Part of me wants to go back and check on r/conservative and see if they’re ok.

16
- Good plan. I'm gonna go lurk for 5 minutes, and see how they're holding up. Will report back momentarily.
  
  Edit: Okay, maybe 5 minutes was too long.
  
  They are still caught somewhere in between glazing up DeSantis for his 2028 bid, and arguing over whether that makes sense because Trump will be running for the fourth time. You have to appreciate the irony of that subtle admission that he will either be ignoring term limits if he does win, or that he is going to lose but they still won't be able to get rid of him.
  
  Still coping with the fact that Nikki Haley has the audacity to run against Trump given that she is a deep state operative and also a woman.
  
  Screaming that the sky is falling like chicken little in the middle of a meteor bombardment because the "radical left" is trying to hold Trump accountable for the crimes he committed even though most of them apparently don't even like him anymore, and are tired of his temper tantrums.

  Thank you for your service.

  Shit they've been gone too long. They're probably a MAGA nutjob now.

  A bit worried they’ve converted Riccosuave.

  she is a deep state operative
  
  I hadn't heard this one before. Nice.

  !remind me 5 minutes 😉

- Are they ever?
  
  19
  
  Not really, but I remember they used to have a raging boner for DeSantis.
  
  7
- They're quickly transitioning to full trump support. 2016 2.0

Are you ready, boots? Start walkin'

15
Bye bitch! Now go crawl back into Trumps ass

14
Wait, I thought he got his “ticket punched.”

11
- Turns out that punch ended up with a TKO.

Like a bitch

i feel like it ended a lot sooner than the new hampshire primary tbh

Sucks to suck

I bet he is vp pick

6
- Nah, he doesn't bring anything to the table.
  
  10
- Not a chance.

Buh. Bye.

I mean the man didn't even do it for the participation trophy

How much do you think Trump gave him?

2
- Statistically, about a teaspoon.
  
  14
- I didn't think trump paid people
  
  5
  
  True, Russians paid de satan
  
  2
- All 2 inches?

Alright guys, sign it with me now!

Oh Ronny! oh Rooony!

Oh Rooony! Oh Ronny!...

He's going to be vice-president. It's not exactly a win

-2
- Except Trump would never accept him.
  
  24
  
  Yeah, first of all he's been proven disloyal, and trump hates that. Plus he doesn't bring much to the table. Trump already has Florida on lock and the only people who like DeSantis over trump are the never trumpers. Trump is going to pick an ass kisser who will never betray him who will also help him with a swing state.
  
  15
  
  No doubt. Trump could never pick a popular vp
  
  4
- 100%
  
  DeSantis knows this is his only realistic path to the presidency, so he jumped on it.
  
  3
- Not a chance.
