Ron DeSantis' Newsmax town hall was filled with signs he's eyeing 2024

If it wasn't clear to you before, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has already started his campaign to be president.

The big picture: His hourlong town-hall appearance Wednesday night on Newsmax's "Spicer & Co." from The Villages was loaded with evidence that he's positioning himself for 2024.

He acknowledged his devotion to former President Trump on the same day the congressional GOP ousted Rep. Liz Cheney from its leadership for standing up to him. (She's also eyeing 2024, by the way.)

DeSantis said he golfed with Trump recently, and talks to him on the phone.

The MAGA menace from Mierda A Lago ain't going to be too happy.

He's running, and he'll run over anyone just to run.

Greenberg said he and other men and not just another man did all the sick sex shit. They made sure to hint that there are multiple others.

8. He aligns himself too closely with Trump for national office. Independents won't like him.

And I guarantee you that this asshole's got baggage somewhere. It's just a matter of finding it. He barely beat Gillum.
