Former President Donald Trump plans to hold a rally in Florida this Sunday - the same day as a series of rallies being held by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis amid mounting speculation of a rivalry between the two.

Trump's rally, being held in Miami in support of Senator Marco Rubio as he seeks a third term, comes on the same day as DeSantis has planned three stops in the Tampa area and in Southwest Florida.

DeSantis is widely seen as a leading Republican competitor to Trump should both men choose to run for president in the 2024 election.

Several US news outlets have reported that some members of the DeSantis camp have expressed anger that they were not informed of the rally prior to Trump's announcement.

"You've got the Sunday before election day totally hijacked by Trump parachuting in," a Republican consultant in Florida was quoted as saying by Politico.

"No Republican could go to a DeSantis event that day. None. And DeSantis won't be here? This is big."

A spokesperson for Trump downplayed any rivalry. When asked if he would campaign with DeSantis last week, Mr Trump said that "he's a nice man".

"I was the one who got him elected," he added, according to the New York Times.

Trump planning to announce shortly after Election Day? Let the fun begin! He will have to systematically take down any and every other potential nominee. That’s the only way he knows to play this game. The ass-kissing Ted Cruz of post-Trump 2016 nomination days? Gone. Welcome back “your dad was in with Oswald and your wife is ugly too.” And there’s so many, many more. Bring on the 🍿

I think it's better if DeSantis runs. Too much baggage with Trump.

Putting up Trump in 2024 would be a blunder like the Democrats made by running Hillary in 2016. Biden is ripe to lose re-election. The only thing that can help him is handing the Democrats an opponent with an extremely low favorability rating. Putting up Trump against Biden would do just that. Have to believe the Democratic money will be pouring into the Trump primary campaign.

I don't think Biden will run. I think health will prevent it. I don't know who it will be, but I doubt it's Biden.

Biden can't/be allowed to run again.  And bypassing Kammy for a white candidate, be it Hilly or Newsome, loses them the POC vote.  

I'm not sure I agree with the last part (about a minority candidate), but the likelihood that a white male other than Biden could make it through the primaries is pretty slim.

I'm no DeSantis fan but he's smart, sane, young, and Machiavellian (Trump is only the last one), and probably would be able to actually govern in a reasonably effective manner.

Trump better hope his endorsed candidates get across the finish line. 
 

GA and PA should be easy R dubs if McCormick beat Oz and GA nominated a normal candidate instead of Herschel.   Instead Trump cleared the way for Walker and got Oz across the finish line. 
 

In fairness.. if Vance and Masters win, those are two very good senators, imo, and (love her or hate her) Kari Lake “looks” to be a strong Trump nominee.

Fetterman destroys anything the left has to say about Walker.  Not a high IQ individual himself and he has actual brain damage.  It's a travesty to have stuck with him.

I don't know if he could win. Media hates him and we have too many sheep in this country who believe what the media tells them. 


Times are a changing… Nobody trusts the media anymore and Twitter can’t manipulate an election again. 
 

I don’t want him to run, but he is.. and if he’s nominated, he’s going to likely win.

I will have to do a survey of:

- the universe of boring white Democratic women senators and governors (no, not Hochul!)

- the universe of black and hispanic Democratic senators and governors

- and lest we forget: boring LGBTQ Democratic senators and governors - Jared Polis?

My take: America wants boring!

There are really just 2 candidates: Newsome and Hillary.

I'm sure a lot of them will donate to his campaign, like they did with the Congressional candidates.  That worked out well...

Ron is winning by 12+% this time. He does not care. Liberals are lying in every way possible 


 

Ron was most likely invited and said no.  He doesn’t need Trump - he has his own record and actual MAGA accomplishments.    
 

That has Trump FURIOUS.  Thus the DeSanctimonius comment last night.

 

 

 

Win the primary - kill the King - that elevates DeSantis to virtually unbeatable in 2024.  
 

I absolutely want Trump to attempt this.  It allows DeSantis to continue to contrast himself as Trump minus the bull ***t.  No better way to do it then with Trump  sucking not only all the negative attention but also all attention away from whatever trash the DNC CCP runs.

No, he’s not.  DeSantis will be fine.  
 

The run up to the nomination is always ugly, and “DeSanctimonius” is nothing.  You’ll recall Kam Harris believes the lady who accused Biden on violent sexual assault and they worked it all out.

That’s a play on the “God made a farmer” poem by Paul Harvey you dolts.   
 

 

And nowhere in there is “on the 8th day God created Ron DeSantis” said.  

 

Why is that lie needed?  Hmmm…

 

 

And yes that matters - Americans know leaders like DeSantis at all levels of government are essential to fighting the enemy within or we’re done.  Every single institution we thought was at minimum - American - has been lost to the CCP.  
 

I have zero issue with the message.  None.

She also called him a racist.  "DeSanctimonius" is nothing.

DeSantis will be the next "little Marco" or whatever. Trump will bury him. Trump is almost a religious figure for the cult. 

 

And just wait until Donald gets indicted, the cult will fall at his feat in a frenzy

This backfired.  
 

Trump is still the favorite over DeSantis in the primary, but he looks weak and vulnerable by pulling this stunt a few days before the midterms.

 

DeSantis absolutely has a chance to take the nomination if he runs. 

 

Social media isn’t the end all, be all, but that nickname bs did not land last night … at all. 
 

Even MAGA die hards were taken back.

DeSantis can't match this level of reaching very dumb people. That's a skill Trump has, he can't really read either, so he connects to the ignorant undeveloped mind

Of course you can’t do anything to stop people, that you even consider that you should sort of pushes you into the mindset of an authoritarian.  You’re consistent, but let’s let people make their own choices Tibsy. 
 

My point is DeSantis will be fine.  He’s a big boy.  There is so much time between now and the nomination it’s silly to even discuss it.

 I should what? You are not making any sense. My guess is you felt something, had a feeling you wanted to express, but could not put it into words. 

 

I have the mindset of an authoritarian? Oh, so rubber and glue thing?

You isn’t me. I cannot vote in those primaries. But you are rooting for him. 
 

But anyway, there it is… on top of bigoted, socialist, faux environmentalist we can now add complete fraud.
