"SNIP.......
Donald Trump in recent months has been telling confidants that he may launch his 2024 presidential campaign early and that hes considering launching it in Florida to stick it to Gov. Ron DeSantis, Rolling Stone reports.
Trump has kicked around staging a large, flashy launch rally (with fireworks, of course) that would announce his White House bid before the 2022 midterm elections.
People whove spoken to Trump say that one reason hes eying the Sunshine State is to assert his dominance over an ascendant DeSantis, who if they both run in 2024 would likely be the former presidents most formidable competitor in a primary fight for the GOP nomination. One of the sources said Trumps motivation is to show the governor who the boss is in the modern-day GOP.

(17,000 posts)Anyone willing to place a bet on whether or not DeSatan tries to keep TFG off the ballot in Florida? Cord Byrd is the Secretary of State who refuses to say if Biden won the 2020 election. Seems like a real stand-up guy.

(42,544 posts)so of course Donny wants to do the exact opposite. Seems to me it would be more likely to energize casual Democratic voters who rarely show up for midterm elections.

(21,554 posts)DeSantis is like the evil apprentice, waiting for just the right moment to kill the mentor that taught him everything and take over his empire. DeSantis is a better politician, just as cruel, better speaker... he's absolutely terrifying honestly.
That being said, drumpf still leads the cult and his followers are willing to literally overthrow the government for him. drumpf will still win that battle vs any MAGA party member?
