  1. "Two there should be. No more, no less. One to embody power, the other to crave it."

    -Darth Bane

  2. You saw it here first: I dub him DeSatan".spread the word…..

  3. I'm done with Trump. DeSantis is sooooooooo much better

  4. Poor fake news, they come up with fresh Democrap propaganda dailyπŸ˜‚

  5. I'm moving out of Florida now that Don ReSantis got reelected. He's such a phony governor that likes to fix things that isn't broken. Maryland is looking real good right about now!! 🀩

  6. desantis bush carlyle group florida high rise collapse and twin towers collapse…

    enjoy the rabbit holes, evil runs deep

  7. TO " GOVERNOR DeSANTIS "
    " FOR WHEN WE BROUGHT YOU THE GOOD NEWS , IT WAS NOT ONLY WITH WORDS
    BUT ALSO WITH POWER , FOR THE " HOLY SPIRIT " GAVE YOU FULL ASSURANCE THAT WHAT WE SAID WAS TRUE . AND YOU KNOW THAT THE WAY WE LIVED AMONG YOU WAS FURTHER PROOF OF TRUTH OF OUR MESSAGE . . .
    " CONGRATULATIONS . "

  8. Mega Who? swish…πŸŒŠπŸŒŠπŸŒŠπŸŒŠπŸŒŠπŸŒŠπŸŒŠπŸ§‘πŸ’šπŸ€ŽπŸ–€πŸ’œπŸ€β™₯πŸ’™ … and will sprinkling in a few red water drops too 🩸🩸🩸 because not all Republicans are TrumPublicans.

  9. My Governor, my future President. Me and my entire liberal and conservative minded families choice.

  10. Msnbc comments is literally 80% bots and trolls lol

  11. Its called TRUMP / DE SANTIS 2024 nbc. LOL.

  12. I hate desantis. But I hope he buries trump

  13. Landslide? The dude won by 16%, that’s not what I’d call a landslide.

  14. Great just what we need four more years with this 🀑

  15. It's basically going to be Trump,Desantis, & Pence. Nobody else matters or cares about I mean really Ted Cruz? Rick Scott? Pence won't win because he didn't have the balls to overturn the election. Trump won't win because he has to much scandals too much ego. Even to us the most hardcore of Trump supporters think he is losing is fundamentals he is getting to Joe Bidens age & I'm sure he doesn't want to live the rest of his "golden years" avoiding all these investigations. He to us it's clear cut he is only focused on himself. Desantis however is more disciplined he was in the Navy he was a lawyer. He is Republican but reaches out the centrists. He is assertive in calling out the media, he sounds like a young Trump, if you look at Trump im the 80's he was more articulate instead of sounding like a parrot nowadays, even his nicknames are original anymore like "peekaboo" James? Wtf is that? He needs to revigor himself & be more creative & aggressive anyways Ron has more composure & is like a more articulate Trump. Has the experience in government is young enough to catch young voters like Obama did when he was in his 50's Reagan when he was governor in his 50's President Kennedy was in his 40's? So there is alot of potential in Ron Desantis in 2024

  16. 0:49

    no way he said that. that has to be out of context, cuz thats literal child logic

  17. If ALL OF U believe in me as much as I believe in u…. they'll remember us 🎭🀑

  18. Very disappointed in Floridians who voted for someone as flawed as DeSantis

  19. I think the "go woke" slogan and bandwagon is the most annoying thing our party could have jumped on πŸ™„. If you know what woke actually means, Republican leaders are telling us to stay stupid and unenlightened. But that's what happens when dad's start trying to use their children's slang.

  20. I really hope trump wins the nomination. If so, democrats have 2024 in the bag lmao trumpism is OVER

  21. It's time for DeSantis we've had far to much drama far to much ego's …DeSantis and Hailey and victory in 2024

  22. Most people who have common sense don't care which one things. They both have proved they can do the job, and do it well.

  23. DeSantis is young enough to wait four years. A four year term for Trump to straighten the economy out and end Ukraine. And then eight years of DeSantis.

  24. Trump would utterly demolish Dopey Desantis. Desatanist is Ted Cruz 2.0. A charisma vacuum. A blob-fish. Trump would have him crying on stage.

  25. Clearly this guy saw what happened in this election . America rejected Trumpism . He may be popular down there in red state Florida ( MAGA ISLAND ) 🏝…but this cou try will reject authoritarian hopeful DeSantis.. I think the heat and all the Trump kool-aid floridians are drinking have made them drunk with craziness ! πŸ€ͺ🀣🌴

  26. Trumps time is done. DeSantis booted Dems out of Florida and will be the next President. Trump needs to enjoy his life with his beautiful family, but he can contribute somehow on the economy because the idiots in Washington have no clue. Obviously

  27. I like DeSantis, but if the media is pushing him it makes me question it lol

  28. Not a chance DeSantis competes with Trump, Desantis will get demolished, its not even a close or even fight. The more RINO’s and Fox News wants DeSantis, the less we MAGA want him!!! We want Trump!!!

  29. I see DeSantis sending Trump out of Florida on the next plane with Migrants to Martha's Vineyard LOL!

  30. I just received a petition created by "Left Action," in which the creator is giving us Democrats full reign to tell Trump what a loser he is. It is so enjoyable to read all the comments the other Dems have made. Of course, it will be delivered to The Orange One after the quota has been reached.

  31. That "red wave" turned out to be an old dried up maxipad

  32. Wow, I hope trump fades away. I'd vote for DeSantis if I were a Republican any day of the week !!!

  33. KAREN DESANTIS AND CHUMP HOLD HANDS

  34. Republican president 2024. God bless America πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

  35. DeSantis has the approval of Floridians to send more illegals to blue states. Next destination, Pennsylvania

  36. Hopefully Garland makes a bigger announcement before next Tuesday.

  37. "For the third summer in a row, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that Florida has seen the most COVID-19 deaths from May to August in the United States."

  38. Itll be mexicans everywhere if desantos wins
