Ron DeSantis takes Donald Trump to the woodshed

People have said for quite a while that Gov. DeSantis would need to directly challenge Donald Trump if he wants to win the nomination. According to Sister Toldjah's article, it appears as though that ass-paddling arrived this week. It started with a simple gotcha question of "Will you support Trump if he won the GOP nomination?" Rather than answer that question, Gov. DeSantis replied "So, what I would say is this. When you are saying that Cuomo did better on Covid than Florida did, you are revealing yourself to just be full of it. Nobody believes that. And you know why I know that? Because I remember in 2020, in 2021, when he was praising Florida for being open, saying we did it much better than New York and Michigan and everyone was coming to Florida, and that [I was] one of the great governors in the United States. And he used to say that all the time."

What I'd say is that Gov. DeSantis is right. Trump is revealing himself "to be full of it." He's been doing that for a month+. That isn't surprising because Trump fights dirty. Gov. DeSantis wasn't finished. He also replied with this:

Now, all of a sudden, his tune is changing, and I would just tell people, do you find it credible? Do you honestly find it credible? Would you have rather been in New York during Covid under [the] Cuomo regime? Or would you rather have been in the free state of Florida?

And I probably can count the number of Republicans on my hand in the nation who would have rather been under Cuomo in New York. And we know that, and so these are just frivolous criticisms. But, in some respects I think it shows that if you have to make that argument then you probably don’t have very good arguments, because the reality is everything he said about us for years about how strong we were, how good we were, how we delivered for the state, those happened to be true.

This is the question and Gov. DeSantis' reply:

Trump is a fighter but he isn't that bright compared with Gov. DeSantis or Vivek Ramaswamy. On the other hand, he's infinitely smarter than Joe Biden or Kamala Harris, aka the Cackling Pantsuit.

If we want to win the whole shooting match, though, let's not forget this information:

I don't want the GOP candidate to win the nomination, then get their fanny paddled by Biden. I want our nominee to paddle Biden's fanny, then prosecute Joe and Hunter after Joe's out of office. Let's do that after finishing building the wall, returning to energy independence and rebuilding the economy the right way.

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

What is Kamala Harris afraid of?

Image
Apparently, Kamala Harris suddenly loves debating. Let me rephrase that. Harris loves debating as long as the moderators are partisan hacks. She wants nothing to do with a debate moderated by Fox's Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum. She's afraid of Bret and Martha because a) they'll either fact-check both her and Trump or they won't fact-check either of them and b) Bret and Martha aren't afraid of asking follow-up questions. To a candidate whose answers are scripted and who isn't quick on her feet, the last thing you want is a follow-up question. Kamala fears follow-up questions like vampires hate wooden stakes, sunlight and holy water. Why has Kamala Harris avoided Fox News like the plague? The moderators/propagandists fact-checked Donald Trump aggressively but didn't fact-check Harris . Why didn't David Muir and Linsey Davis fact-check both candidates equally? Is it because Harris doesn't like fair fights? Perhaps she's just afraid of getting exp

Why is Joe Biden letting Hamas off the hook?

Image
It isn't disputable whether Joe Biden's administration is letting Hamas off the hook. That issue was settled months ago, when a spineless Joe Biden caved to activists interested in saving Hamas and thwarting the Israelis' attempt to defend themselves. Gerard Baker's op-ed highlights what's at stake for the U.S. if the terrorists are permitted to survive. In his op-ed, Baker wrote "If, under the pressure of internal Democratic politics and global public opinion, the Biden administration forces a 'cease-fire' that leaves our closest ally in the region short of victory over an enemy that seeks to destroy it, sooner or later we shall all pay the price." It's time to revisit George W. Bush's speech to a joint session of Congress on Sept. 20, 2001. It's required that we remind ourselves of one of its most important paragraphs. In talking about who committed the atrocities of 9/11, President Bush identified al-Qa'ida as "a collectio
