Trump Lashes Out at DeSantis for Being Disloyal

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 Trump’s strong support — as profoundly disloyal for distancing himself from the president’s 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.

I mean, really?

That's no way to run a government or even a corporation for that matter.

No wonder the dotard had so many bankruptcies.
