Triggered - Donald Trump Jr - Watch Me Go OFF On RINO Ron DeSantis

On today's show, we have special guest and former Florida Governor Rick DeSantis (R-GA). We talk about his campaign, why he's running for president, and why he has a chance to beat Donald Trump in the primary. We also talk about why he should win the primary and what he should do if he becomes the next president of Florida. We also discuss why he might not be as bad as Marco Rubio and why it's a good idea for him to run for president. And of course, we talk about how he's going to deal with the fact that his opponent is a former president and former vice president, George H.W. Bush. We finish up the show with some hot takes from the past week in politics and the future of the Trump administration. Tweet us if you have any thoughts or opinions on this or any other candidates running for President in the upcoming primary. or if you think we should run for President! and we'll get back to you next Tuesday!

00:00:00.000 What did you think about how DeSantis – I mean this is a big topic too, how – I guess DeSantis versus the former president.

00:00:05.000 What did you think about what he said?

00:00:07.000 Dude, I thought – again, I saw the flip-flop on Ukraine where it was like he tried sort of taking the Trump approach, like maybe he wore bad and then like the donors – Dude, there's a difference.

00:00:16.000 So what did he say? He was against it first?

00:00:18.000 He was against it. He sort of took a weak Trump stance on it.

00:00:21.000 And then he was like, well, we must stop it. 0.99

00:00:23.000 Putin is an evil dictator. It's like, holy shit, your donors got to you. 1.00

00:00:27.000 And that's the difference. 1.00

00:00:28.000 That's what's good about Trump.

00:00:29.000 And perhaps that's what's good about it. Even if Trump, in 24, Trump is like a lame duck and just go in and break all that shit up. 1.00

00:00:35.000 You're not trying to get reelected again. 1.00

00:00:37.000 You can just do everything that you need to do. 1.00

00:01:01.000 They're like, holy shit, this is scary and bullshit. 1.00

00:01:03.000 It's not really a big issue. 1.00

00:01:04.000 You're talking about the case against Trump.

00:01:06.000 I'm talking about the lack of comments on it, right?

00:01:11.000 Really? You mean, to me, as a conservative, as a Republican, as someone who's been in those crosshairs, that's probably one of the biggest issues we face as a country.

00:01:21.000 You see Matt Taibbi, the guy who's the reporter who broke all the Twitter files about what happened during the election before.

00:01:28.000 Yesterday, he testified before the Weaponization of Congress Committee, Jim Jordan and those guys.

00:01:35.000 And the day he does that, the IRS goes and raids his home.

00:01:40.000 We still think that's a coincidence.

00:01:43.000 I don't believe in coincidence anymore.

00:01:46.000 So if you can't call out Like literally the weaponization of governmental institutions against your citizens.

00:01:56.000 Come on, guys. So, DeSantis has, like, big donors.

00:01:59.000 Like, the former president's donors, was that all just raised by, like, individuals and stuff?

00:02:03.000 Yeah, well, no, you have big donors on all sides, but we did a big, you know, we had probably the greatest small-dollar donor campaign in the history of America, right?

00:02:12.000 You know, blue-collar Americans, you know, like, $33 average kind of donation, you know?

00:02:18.000 And you can see, you just look up the stats, right?

00:02:19.000 The people donating to other sides, you know, this guy's worth $9.12 billion.

00:02:23.000 You know what? They want a president when they call It's fucking crazy, man. We're going to be tough on China, but not if it cost me an extra cent in my widget. 0.99

00:02:50.000 You know what I mean? These sorts of things.

00:02:52.000 There's a lot of hypocrisy there.

00:02:54.000 So they know Trump doesn't really need them.

00:02:57.000 Trump doesn't sort of look the same way.

00:02:58.000 DeSantis, who's a career politician, guess what?

00:03:01.000 He needs that money. And guess what?

00:03:03.000 He needs that money again to further the goal and again.

00:03:05.000 And so he's got to act.

00:03:08.000 When they say jump, he says how high.

00:03:10.000 And that's the nature of politics.

00:03:12.000 It's why they went after Trump so hard, in my opinion, because they don't want other people who don't need them in power.

00:03:19.000 Of course. Right? They don't want that.

00:03:22.000 They want to show an example.

00:03:24.000 Like, this is what happens. Like, you have a good life.

00:03:26.000 You're a fucking billionaire. You can do whatever the hell you want. 1.00

00:03:28.000 Like, do you really want this shit? 1.00

00:03:30.000 Because we're coming after you, too. 1.00

00:03:32.000 And so when you see that weaponization and you're not willing to call it out, guess what?

00:03:36.000 They'll do it to him. If DeSantis ever becomes the guy or any other Republican ever becomes the guy, it's easy when you're trying to pit someone against Trump because they'll do whatever they can to help you so you can take out Trump.

00:03:47.000 When you're the guy, That's a whole different world.

00:03:50.000 That's a whole different story. And if that's the way you're going to handle it when they're doing it, you know, generally speaking, how are you going to do when you're in the big show?

00:03:59.000 That's crazy. Because he obviously is doing a good job with Florida and the way he handled COVID I liked.

00:04:03.000 But it is interesting now when I saw you say that, yeah, he just has a bunch of big donors and he might be sold to them.

00:04:09.000 Yeah, you know, when Paul Ryan's going out and endorsing and, you know, Jeff Rowe comes and runs his super pack and Karl Rove is the out there, like...

00:04:16.000 Really? You want another Bush administration?

00:04:18.000 That's fine. If you want the Bushes, you can have that.

00:04:22.000 That's a great avenue for you.

00:04:24.000 But that's what it's been proven.

00:04:27.000 You can hire a bunch of influencers to clip you dunking on some local reporter and make it go viral.

00:04:34.000 Doesn't mean that's real.
