Trump claims DeSantis was 'grooming high school girls' (February)

And you haven even announced yet Ron? Well here's the deal - MAGA does not give a rats about facts; they will always side with the bigger bully.

Trump amplifies posts claiming DeSantis was 'grooming high school girls'

In five successive posts Tuesday to his social media site, Truth Social, Trump went after DeSantis. Two of them referenced a story published by the far-right website Hillreporter.com that claimed DeSantis had been photographed "partying with underaged students" at the Darlington School, a private K-12 school in Rome, Ga., where DeSantis taught from 2001-02.

Trump reposted a photograph originally posted by a Truth Social member who goes by the handle Dong-Chan Lee, and who uses a profile photo of the alt-right meme Pepe the Frog, featuring Trump's signature hairdo. The image showed what appeared to be DeSantis flanked by three young women that had been captioned, "Here is Ron DeSanctimonious grooming high school girls with alcohol as a teacher."

Trump, who so far is the only Republican to have formally declared himself a candidate for the 2024 presidential election, added his own commentary to go with the photo. "That’s not Ron, is it?" Trump wrote. "He would never do such a thing!"

who bought a teen pageant in order to barge unannounced into their dressing room and maybe catch a glimpse. Yeah, that guy posing with his tween daughter lasciviously slithering on his lap. Yep, that’s the guy.

Maybe some boring, colorless timer-serving GOP-er will rise to the surface instead, to serve as a sacrificial lamb. We don't need to divide the entire GOP electorate; just the ones in the states that pushed Hillary Clinton out of contention in 2016.
