    : “Multiple people familiar with DeSantis’ political network said that he and his wife had expressed concerns about the messaging of Never Back Down, the largest super PAC supporting the governor’s campaign, in recent months as his Iowa polling numbers stagnated in late summer and autumn…”

    “DeSantis’ team shared those messaging concerns with members of Never Back Down’s board, which includes Florida-based members with close ties to the governor… Some of the board members then relayed the DeSantis team’s wishes to super PAC staff, which was responsible for executing strategy.”

    “Federal laws prohibit coordination between presidential campaigns and outside groups.”

      Unfortunately for DeSantis, he can’t get his toadies in the Florida Legislature to craft a loophole for that one.

    How great this must all be for Meatball’s ego. A 4-time indictee who tried to end US democracy is more democratically popular than him

    Edit: he fucked if Satan ever wins the nom and runs under the Red banner, as is tradition

    Edit: how hilarious would it be if Trump and DeSatan ended up in a Thai?
