Ron DeSantis did his big announcement on a heavily-watched Twitter space with Elon Musk last night, after a series of technical problems.
If you were hoping that his big announcement would be that he bought a gym membership, you will be sadly disappointed. DeSantis doubled down on fatness by making no mention of his severe – and clearly intentional – struggle with obesity. Instead, he announced that he is running to challenge Donald Trump for the presidential nomination.
@GovRonDeSantis announced he’s running for president on Twitter. This was by far the biggest room ever held on social media. Twitter performed great after some initial scaling challenges. Thanks Twitter Team for adapting so quickly to make history!https://t.co/mTJ2INQ1Y7

He talked about Bitcoin or whatever. I don’t know, I haven’t listened to it yet. I shouldn’t have listened to it, but I didn’t feel like it, and there was no full transcript available. I read a bunch of articles last night, and the only thing I remember right now is that he announced he’s challenging Trump and that he’s saying he supports Bitcoin.
It was probably a clever move for DeSantis to announce this way. It’s a huge audience, which he couldn’t possibly get on his own. It also allowed him to avoid direct questioning (save scripted questions from friendly shills). The guy is dumb, and he’s working off a script.
I said at the time: I don’t think anyone intelligent could sincerely get past his flip-flop on the Ukraine war, which happened in a matter of hours. Meatball went out there and said the war is stupid and a waste of money, then flipped the next day. He literally used the John McCain line, calling Russian civilization – which is more than 1,000 years old – a “gas station.”
At the time, POLITICO framed this as a clarification.
That’s one of six million examples of the so-called “liberal media” supporting DeSantis (I’ve explained before, many times, that even when they attack him they’re defending him).
Most people are not intelligent. That is the big problem with universal suffrage democracy. In any country, the average person is of average intelligence, and in America, the average person is a fat retard.
So What is the Deal?
The whole thing is a garbled mess at this point. It’s difficult to analyze.
Here are some of the questions:
- Can the conservative media oust Trump by saying “he can’t win” because of his indictments?
- Would people actually go along with the uncharismatic zombie fat man DeSantis?
- Is Elon Musk actually all in with DeSantis, or is he keeping his options open?
- If Elon is all in for Meatball, how will Twitter affect the race?
- Why would people in Silicon Valley imagine that a fat boy who is already bought and paid for by Israel would be their shill?
- Will the Democrats cede power at all, ever, or is this totally pointless to even talk about because they can just steal the election if they want?
- Do the top Jews want to go to a war footing, and maybe actually want DeSantis in power instead of America-hating Joe Biden?
I’m not going to pretend to have a definitive answer to any of these questions. I see people speculating, as they do, and speculation is interesting, and I do a bit of it myself, but the reality is, no one really knows the answers to any of these questions other than the people who are directly involved (and that’s probably a stretch).
What I feel strongly about is that I’m not interested in any Republican other than Trump – and that isn’t going to change for me because it is impossible for Trump to win an election, while it’s possible the Jews would let DeSantis win.
That is actually an argument, by the way – “there will be massive election fraud if Trump is the nominee, so we should pick DeSantis because the Jews will allow it.”
Protip: if the Jews ever tell you they're allowing you to do a thing, you don't want to do that thing. Whatever it is, you do not want to do it.
Elon said afterward that every presidential candidate is welcome on his Twitter podcast.
All Presidential candidates are most welcome on this platform

I think Trump should take him up on that immediately.
Furthermore – add this question to the list – why is Trump not on Twitter?
Frankly, as long as he is remaining in that exclusive “Truth Social” contract, I can’t really even take his candidacy seriously. If he’s not going to use Twitter, the platform that won him the 2016 election, because of a contract with a fake social media company, then the campaign looks suspiciously like a callous money-grab.
Anyway.
Whatever.
