Trump Just Made the Strangest Comment on the DeSantis Announcement – ‘Bonkers!’ – Watch
Donald Trump has been known for some bizarre behavior, but his reaction to Ron DeSantis’ 2024 presidential bid may be his most bizarre yet.
The former president was not thrilled by Governor DeSantis’ announcement. Trump has obsessively attacked DeSantis for weeks, with sophomoric names, blatant misrepresentations of the state of Florida under DeSantis, and at one point claimed in a campaign email: “Under Ron DeSantis, Florida has become among the worst states… to live… find economic opportunity… work… retire… raise a family… pay taxes…be safe… rent a home… have a baby… afford energy… die… be a teacher… be a doctor… be a police officer.”
Trump has continually claimed that if it wasn’t for him, DeSantis would never have become the Florida governor. In one strange attack, Trump even claimed he “appointed” Desantis to the Florida governorship.
And then, after DeSantis made his announcement, Trump wrote this crazy statement on his social media network: ‘Rob,’ My Red Button is bigger, better, stronger, and is working (TRUTH!), yours does not! (per my conversation with Kim Jung Un, of North Korea, soon to become my friend!)
Matthew Brodsky, a political strategist and senior fellow at the Gold Institute for International Strategy, tweeted, in response to Trump’s post: “Bonkers.”
A.G. Hamilton, a conservative writer said: DeSantis has been talking about detailed and substantive policy issues for the last hour. This is what you get from Trump. If people want idiocracy and entertainment, Trump might be the better option. If you want substance on the right, DeSantis is it.
In a recent interview, Trump threatened to release “unflattering information” about DeSantis if he were to run for president. He also called him “Ron DeSanctimonious” and said he was “not a nice guy.”
Trump’s comments are puzzling, to say the least. DeSantis is one of Trump’s most loyal supporters and has been praised by the former president on numerous occasions.
