"And now we find out who our real friends are."

Donald Trump Jr told Steve Bannon this morning on War Room those were the words Donald J Trump spoke to his family in 2015 as they were getting off the elevator before heading to the escalator, where Trump would make the official announcement he was running for the presidency.
Trump likely knew he was going to face sharp opposition from some of his friends and associates in Hollywood, corporate America and from politicians of both parties but he never had a clue he would face the hell fire wrath of every major institution in the US.....including the FBI, DOJ, IRS, and other powerful agencies within the US Federal government.
I believe Trump is the first president in the past 100 years, hell maybe US history to leave office with less net worth than when he entered office....he knew that was very likely to happen if he was elected president. He ran anyway, he won, and took the financial hit because he reasoned the state of our constitutional republic was in serious decline and he believed he had a duty to play a part in stopping the decline of our nation.
Steve Bannon asked Donald Trump in a recent interview, paraphrased,
"Knowing what you know now, the incessant coordinated attacks against you and your family, would you make the same decision to run for the presidency in 2015?"
Without hesitation, Trump answered with a firm yes. That says a lot about Trump, a man who truly put everything on the line to lead this constitutional republic, including the possibility of losing his personal freedom.
That ^^^^ my fellow Americans is a patriot, because the Anti Trump Consortium would shackle Trump and throw his azz in prison if they could. You tell me any candidate for the presidency in the past 150 years that has faced that threat.

When do we find out who all of Brandon’s 81 million voters were?

Yep! Donald Trump is a warrior. Most men would have buckled under this relentless attack by these Deep State operatives. Some awful people are trying to take him out. Loves His country - True Patriot.
My impression of Ron DeSantis? Go along to get along. Uniparty twerps like Paul Ryan - Karl Rove et al supporting you? Not a good sign IMO. Plus he's got small kids. These blood thirsty demoniacs in Washington will go after his wife and kids. Grind him into the ground. Look what they're doing to Kavanaugh. It's insane.

I guess it's safe to assume you're not posting that from a DC jail cell because you stood for Trump on Jan 6.

I always see this; is it documented or is it just something people say? And does it include his family?

That's funny, you don't think Ron's Gope mega donors don't want anything for their hundreds of millions?

Just post the links to some of RDS's establishment policies.
Like this:
Trump signs warrantless surviellance extension into law
Trump Creates Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Agency
Trump wants bigger coronavirus relief package than Pelosi's $2.2T proposal
Do that, but for DeSantis.

Nothing DeSantis has done has been status quo, which is exactly why we like him. Since Trump was a complete failure his first term, why not try a new guy?

Trump net worth
Important note though, says a lot of that drop in income has to do with COVID
Trump net worth
quote:
n 2016, Trump was worth $3.7 billion, according to Forbes. That dropped to $3.1 billion in 2017 and held there for 2018 and 2019. But this year Trump’s net worth dropped to $2.5 billion. That $600 million decline led Trump to drop from the 275th richest person in America in 2019 to the 352nd richest in 2020 – a drop of 77 spots. (It took a net worth of $2.1 billion to make the top 400.)

Has anyone talked about the 52 bills DeSantis sponsored while in the house and 4 passed? I know freshmen reps don't get a ton of credit at that level, but shouldn't that be a little alarming as that is the very definition of "not getting shite done"?
Not trying to start a pissing contest. Just haven't seen it posted anywhere. Might have missed it
Edited for accurate numbers

On one hand that's a good indicator - he went there to get something done, and if those bills are aligned with what he has done as governor, that's good.
If they are frivolous or full of bad or establishment priorities, than that's bad.
We need to know the contents of them, that's my point here.
