"SNIP........

Rolling Stone: “As he prepares to announce his own 2024 run, Trump has been soliciting dirt on DeSantis and other potential primary rivals, including Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin. Trump has also spread gossip about DeSantis, including unverified allegations about his private life. Rolling Stone is declining to repeat what Trump has said.”

“This type of gossip accumulation and dissemination is a common habit of Trump’s, one that he took to the White House, even when dealing with foreign leaders and highly sensitive U.S. intelligence. He’s using it against DeSantis while also stepping up his public attacks.”

to look out for Ron. Stone still has not learned his lesson and I am certain he has quite a few dirty tricks up his sleeve. This could get interesting.

They certainly forgive each other quickly enough. I read that he said this to tRump within the last 6 months so I guess he got over it.

3 wives, countless affairs, 5 bankruptcies, countless lawsuits against you for things like fraud. None of that hurt trump. What could he say about DeSantis that is worse?

Did any of us doubt that he has "dirt" on many of the GOP and that's why they coddle him? McCarthy? Graham?

and it's probably not going to have anything to do w/ DeSatan's policies like hiring an anti-vaxer Surgeon General, signing laws that prohibit local govts from requiring vaccine certificates or masks, like "don't say gay," like attacking corporations (Disney) whose "woke" policies offend him, like illegally sending the bill to Fla taxpayers to send migrants from TX to Martha's Vineyard.

DeSatan is every bit as pernicious and authoritarian as drumpf; in fact, he may be worse because he's less personally irritating to many people.
