ELECTION NIGHT FIGHT: Trump Takes Another Shot at DeSantis, Threatens to Release Oppo if He Runs in 2024
Former President Donald Trump fired another warning shot at Florida Governor Ron DeSantis before polls closed Tuesday night; Trump said he “would tell you things about him that won’t be very flattering.”
From The Daily Wire:
Trump claimed that there was no “tiff” with DeSantis after he mocked the governor over the weekend, calling him “Ron DeSanctimonious” and using old poll numbers showing that he had a lead on DeSantis in a 2024 presidential primary.
“I don’t know if he is running. I think if he runs, he could hurt himself very badly,” Trump said. “I really believe he could hurt himself badly. I think he would be making a mistake, I think the base would not like it — I don’t think it would be good for the party.”
“If he runs, he runs,” Trump continued. “I would tell you things about him that won’t be very flattering — I know more about him than anybody — other than, perhaps, his wife.”
Trump and DeSantis are expected to go head-to-head in 2024; Trump voted for DeSantis on Tuesday.
