Trump came up with Desanctimonious on his own.

First of all, I would like to point out that it is not particularly appropriate as an appellation. I do not see this trait in desantis.

Second, one will note that the only person rattling it off is trump. The expression does not have staying power.

Desantis has many unattractive traits but sanctimonious is not high in the list.

DeathSentence absolutely has positioned himself as morally superior to others. I think he's more of a Grim Reaper type myself, but yeah, this shoe fits too.

The main event is Trump's big donors dropping him. The minute Trump declares for the presidency the dark money funding the RNC which funds Trump's lawyers also stops. I said long ago that Trump will not be on the 2024 ballot. Trump may declare to try to influence Merrick Garland, but he will eventually drop out.

Basically he is a conservative, and not a “national conservative.” The culture war stuff isn’t sufficient to create a movement like Trump got, and otherwise all he can offer is war and tax cuts.

about Trump ever running for office again? Wasn't he angry about not getting a pardon?

But now he endorses Trump against DeSatan.

phone call was to no one, he was just acting tough for the camera. it was part of some documentary he was filming. he probably was showing how he would act if trump didn't pardon him. ( which of course is bullshit, he'll kiss trumps ass no matter what)
