DeSantis' College Teammate: 'He Was The Biggest D*ck We Knew'

DeSantis' College Teammate: 'He Was The Biggest D*ck We Knew'
This is probably why conservatives like him.
By Conover Kennard — June 20, 2022


If former President Donald Trump wants to run in 2024, he might have a formidable contender if Ron DeSantis runs, too. A recent Denver poll shows DeSantis winning 71% of the vote to Trump’s 67%. Trump's iron grip on his party is slowly loosening.

Republicans are afraid of the twice-impeached former President. Sen. Lindsey Graham praised Trump on Friday for making everybody "afraid" while he served in the White House.

"You know what I liked about Trump? Everybody was afraid of him, including me," the South Carolina Republican said.


However, Ron DeSantis is more frightening, in my humble, but always right opinion. DeSantis has similar narcissistic traits as the former President, but he's smart. In contrast, Trump is an idiot. That's not the only similarity the two share.

The New Yorker published an interesting profile on DeSantis. He's cruel like Trump.

Some recalled that DeSantis was so intensely focused that he wasn't much of a teammate. "Ron is the most selfish person I have ever interacted with," another teammate told me. "He has always loved embarrassing and humiliating people. I'm speaking for others—he was the biggest dick we knew." But the same teammate praised DeSantis's intellect. "This is the frustrating part. He's so fucking smart and so creative," he said. "You couldn't even plagiarize off his work. He'd take some angle, and everyone knew there was only one person who could have done that."


Like Trump, DeSantis likes humiliating people. I'm starting to see a pattern here with Republicans. Cruelty is the point.

He is an awful, TERRIBLE human being.

If he ever runs for any office outside of Florida we need to CRUSH him. These stories will be helpful.
Someone who knows him from way back - please write a book!

bother to read them.

Better to just use comments like this one in ads and sound bytes. Tag him with cruelty, abuse of power, and lacking social intelligence.

When someone says that he is smart, just say, "But not enough social intelligence to be president. Doesn't understand people and their needs."

You could pull any 2nd grader out of class and they'd be smarter than Pendejo45.
So that's not really saying much of DeathSentence, DarthSantis (Pick any name you like).

I just can't find a definitive definition. I know it when I see it, but supremely self-centered does not define it in my mind. To me it's a pompous ass who does everything with unbounded confidence while fouling everything up to the max and appearing to be a putz in the process.

Please add your own definition. Society needs to deal with this.

They think they're perfect and everyone wants to be like them. They think everyone wants to hear them speak when it's really only them that wants to hear themselves speak. Of course, there's the sadism factor. They love the suffering of others. It's like fuel.

DeathSentence needs to be humiliated. Figuratively brought to his knees.

22. If DeSantis wins the GOP nomination, we will have an incredible weapon to win presidency.

So.. If somehow another GOP goon beats Trump for the nomination, i believe we can crash their program. (Cue sinister laugh!) We just start a write in campaign for Trump! We show up at GOP rallies decked out in red and wave our "write in Trump!" signs. His people are just stupid enough to do it too. Smart enough to spell Trump right but stupid enough to kill the GOP chances. When GOP wonks try to explain the nuances of electoral college politics - it will fly right over their dang heads. Especially the trailer park crowd. Vote Trump they will yell! We are going to take the Kanye thing and wrap it around their freak'n necks.

That said.. If the GOP nominates a young, well spoken DC outsider, we will probably need another candidate than President Biden. The comparison would be frightening. We would need a strong throated person to push back against the crap every day. This is no time to talk about 2024 for us. Joe needs all the support we can give him, but after the mid term, all bets are off. If Joe believes VP Harris is the right candidate in 2024, he should resign 8 months before the election and give her the chance to lead (and show the country). I am not sure she is helping him at all right now. I really like Kamala, but I am not ready to bet the future of Democracy on America showing that same affection.

DeSantis is a petty goober. He maybe smart and have a gift for sucking up to conserviturds, but I think a senator like Durbin or Whitehouse would be more appealing to the general public. Neither are exciting and both are white bread af, but they would make Ronny look like an amateur.

Would string up a Democrat given the opportunity, we really don't know how far they will go under critical circumstances. The Hate party would gladly try and own the libs.

He's smarter but probably more ruthless if that is possible and every bit as heartless.

He killed a lot of Floridians with his handling of Covid - all for political posturing.

I dislike him more than I do Trump and Trump is one of the most vile humans known to mankind in my opinion.
