https://politicalwire.com/2018/09/18/trump-distances-himself-from-desantis/September 18, 2018 at 4:33 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment
President Trump is privately lashing out at one of his top allies, Ron DeSantis (R), angrily accusing the Florida Republican gubernatorial nominee of publicly betraying him, Politico reports.
The president has told close associates in recent days that he views DeSantis who won his Aug. 28 GOP primary thanks to Trumps strong support as profoundly disloyal for distancing himself from the presidents assertion that the Hurricane Maria death toll was inflated by Democrats for political purposes.
Trump views the former congressman as politically indebted to him because he believes DeSantis owes his electoral success to him.

how lying, backstabbing assholes like Trump are always so amazed that someone turns on them.

That's no way to run a government or even a corporation for that matter.
No wonder the dotard had so many bankruptcies.

Reverse numbers from a few weeks ago. This is a man to man market, not fixed odds:
