1. Trump giving Pfizer lobbyists positions in his 2016 administration after Pfizer donated to his campaign. This is the corrupt #DeepState many in #MAGA complain about - and Trump himself is part of it.
DeSantis’ huge donors are almost entirely former Trump donors.
Now to dismantle the “Soros supports DeSantis!” Argument. To start, let me repost my original debunking of the Soros “endorsement” from the beginning of my #DESANTIS2024 thread.
Trump has accepted millions from George Soros in the past. DeSantis has accepted no money from Soros in the past.
Soros has also offered praise for Donald Trump during his last administration. You cannot act like Soros *thinking* DeSantis will win is an endorsement then pretend… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Meanwhile - @GovRonDeSantis has been fighting Soros and his prosecutors every step of the way in his tenure as Governor of Florida. These are not the moves of a man who is “in bed” with Soros and acting otherwise is comical and devoid of all facts, evidence and reason. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
First two screenshots are more evidence of @RonDeSantisFL fighting Soros. Last two screenshots is of Trumps Advisor - Jared Kushner - having significant financial ties to Soros.

The outrage against DeSantis in #MAGA or #Cult45 circles are purely manufactured and almost always based on lies. The reality is all in #MAGA praised DeSantis’ job in Florida (Trump included) and almost all viewed him as the heir apparent to Trump for 2028 and 2032.
Many example of Trump praising @GovRonDeSantis’ handling of Florida during the pandemic as well as Trump acknowledging - in his own words - that HE closed the economy down. Not DeSantis. (More on the vaccine and Covid response later on in this thread.)
Continued Trump praising DeSantis and his job in Florida.
First screenshot references how Trump actually criticized DeSantis for opening up “too early”. More on this later.
Given the scale of arguments (usually overt lies) I’ve seen leveled against @RonDeSantisFL since originally writing this thread, I’ve decided to add a MASSIVE update to counter *any and all* new and ongoing arguments against DeSantis… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Honorable mention - this is very old, but #Cult45 love bringing up random extremely old positions so here’s Trump also voicing his support for Hillary Clinton when he was still a democrat.
