  1. Desantis was bobbleing vicously today. I suggest a neck brace.

  2. Really more DeSantis? Don't you cover him every day already? He has 17% but 100% coverage by NBC. More sensationalism by this media network for ratings and increased ad revenue!

  3. FEC fines Hillary Clinton campaign and DNC over Trump-Russia dossier research CNN mar 2022

    Chairman Graham Releases Newly Declassified Summary Indicating former FBI Director JAmes Comey knew Steele Dossier Source Was Likely a Russian Agent, had Been Under U.S. Counterintelligence Investigation… (U.S. Senate on the Judiciary,Sept 2022) So, now you know former director of the FBI James Comey tried to frame Trump for TREASON!

    "On August 25, 2017, Federal Judge William Zloch, dismissed the lawsuit after several months of litigation during which DNC attorneys argued that the DNC would be well within their rights to select their own candidate. “In evaluating Plaintiffs’ claims at this stage, the Court assumes their allegations are true—that the DNC and Wasserman Schultz held a palpable bias in favor Clinton and sought to propel her ahead of her Democratic opponent,” the court order dismissing the lawsuit stated.". Court Concedes DNC Had the Right to Rig Primaries Against Sanders Observer Aug 2017

    So why isn't the corrupt DOJ prosecuting Trump for what the leaders of the DNC did? Why isn't Comey being prosecuted for trying to frame Mr T for TREASON? Why did FBI agent Strozk only get probation?

  4. I think Casey wants Ron to be President more than Ron does.

  5. stop giving this fascist a platform. hes anti-freedom, anti-business, anti-american.

  6. The Supreme Court got it right with abortion bill. And now you're seeing it play out in the. States, so the people Have a say like they should have. Got your panties in a bunch over nothing.

  7. Mike Pants career is over as a Republican. But he will make a good Democrat. If you don't believe me, just watch his poll numbers.

  8. DeSantis is a criminal! Trump stole the election for him. Why the silence before, too late. You were enabling a criminal so that makes you a co conspirator

  9. hey Trumpists, its about the facts and the law

  10. As a lifelong independent, now de facto Democrat, no Republican seeking ANY office will ever get another vote from me. The Republicans have more or less permanently revealed themselves as the very opposite of the Democrats, but in doing so they've also defined themselves as criminals, traitors, liars, thieves, psychos, lunatics and, most definitely, un-American and anti-democracy. If that's how they want to identify themselves, then fine, but it will be without any future support from me EVER. I'll bet many others feel that way, too.

  11. He'd make a great Vice President. Then President, what a nice 12 years.

  12. LOL. Maybe if he attacks basic freedoms more people will warm up to him? Get a grip DeSantis.

  13. AWFUL FEMALE HOST and awful dress. NBC obviously has VERY LOW hiring standards.

  14. Can’t say enough about how giddy I am that Desantis keeps punching himself in the face. Total loser. Hm and JEB should have a pudding together and discuss their epic failures.

  15. BREAKING NEWS Actor Bradley Cooper to play Ron Desantis in a film called “Insurrection”. Maria Menounos to play his wife Casey Desantis.

  16. TRUMP, NOT Sam Eagle the Muppet character. I would vote for Sam.

  17. The hypocrisy continues between the politicians, the lie continues being the main tool for corrupt, of criminals, anyway, of all those that protect and support the crime, the corruption. Observe some communications system like CNN, MSCBN, CBN,NBC , observe some public organizations like FBI, DOJ's, IRS and others, how hid the information of the American citizens, independent to be true or lie. The question is, why? Because both have financial interest? Because exist one big criminal's organization management this evil scheme? Drug Cartels? CCP (China communist Party)? Rich people? Powerful politicians? Anyway, exist one powerful and dangerous criminal's organization behind about all these. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

  18. They have the perfect opportunity to bash defendant trump but are too wimpy to do so. If they can't stand up against a perpetual child, how the heck can they stand up to China or Russia? Pathetic.😂

  19. Republicans embrace foreign propaganda and rejoice as freedom is extinguished. NEVER AGAIN!

  20. No custom tailored adult diapers allowed in prison.
    Prison issued one size fits all only.

  21. I predict a rematch between Trump and Biden in 2024!

  22. Ronald Reagan did not participate in the first Republican Primary Debate in 1979, the reason for this was Strategic planning, I believe that Trump will take the same path to the nomination

  23. REPUBLICANS…TRUMP MAKE ALL LOOK STUPID THEN ALL WALKIN AROUND BOWING TO HIM 😂 LOL GET A LIFE FOR YOUR SELF CAUSE TRUMP IS GOING TO PRISON N HIS FRIENDS

  24. As do Democrats against Biden.
