Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Sunday, March 17, 2024

Trump bragged at his event that he hit Ron DeSantis low and high and to the side, and that he ultimately conquered the Florida governor, despite DeSantis having already endorsed Trump. The former president even compared his attacks on DeSantis to the attacks his administration leveled against ISIS. "I hit him hard, I hit him low, just like we did to ISIS ... We hit this guy so hard," the ex-president said. "He's a shell of the man ... We have to hit our enemies hard." MeidasTouch made the potential connection Saturday: "Trump began attacking DeSantis again right after DeSantis signed legislation to allow the release of grand jury documents in the Epstein case," the outlet wrote.

If you had any doubt that the release of the Florida Epstein grand jury files is going to destroy Trump, remove that doubt. Trump and his political operation are suddenly spending an equal amount of effort attacking DeSantis as they are Biden.....which makes no sense," Henlein wrote Saturday. "They aren't attacking Haley at all, who refused to endorse Trump and stayed in the race much longer than DeSantis, but they are passionately attacking DeSantis, who dropped out after Iowa and endorsed Trump......which makes no sense."

"The ONLY possible explanation," according to the political onlooker, "is that Trump knows the release of Florida Epstein grand jury, which DeSantis paved the way for, is going to be extremely damaging to Trump."

"Trump is angry that this has happened, and he needs to discredit everything about DeSantis to try and blunt the impact of those files," according to Henlein.

Why should Trump worry about anything in Epstein's files? Unless there is video of him banging a 10 year old his followers won't care, even then they would say it is fake or AI generated.

Trump attacking DeSantis because of Trump attacking DeSantis again because of Epstein exposure: conservative veteran (March 10, 2024)

... Conservative Army Iraq War Veteran Peter Henlein has a theory about why Donald Trump has started attacking Ron DeSantis again, even after DeSantis dropped out of the GOP presidential race and endorsed his former opponent.

Henlein, who recently announced he wouldn't donate to the Republican party due to the Trump family takeover, pointed to recent moves by DeSantis, who revealed March 7 that he had "signed legislation that will allow the release of grand jury documents in the Epstein case."

"Justice has not been served in this case, and all perpetrators should be held accountable," the Florida governor said in the announcement.

"I think this is why Trump has again started attacking Ron DeSantis in every speech after a month and half of silence," the conservative wrote. "There is no public figure more connected to Jeffrey Epstein than Donald Trump. It was at his personal home that Epstein recruited his victims.

The most famous of those victims was a child employee of Trump. She worked at the 'spa' at Mar-a-Lago." ...

The bloated------------- is getting desperate.

His speech this weekend look like it is scripted for him to lose the election to start another insurrection over it.

It's almost like Putin is writing the script of his campaign.

#5 the campaigns actions have pointed to the same.

It's almost as if they know winning an election won't give them the completeness of power and a win that they want.

So they're literally trying to burn it all down and use the fire as cover to do all the illegal ---- they want at the get go.

Quite a few powerful men fear a bloodbath if these files are released which is why I suspect they won't be released.

Huh. Over on the Rittenhouse thread, they say the child predator got the bloodbath they deserve.

But when it's Trump, they say let's try to avoid that bloodbath at all costs.
