Where was Ron DeSantis on 9/11?
A new spot from the Lincoln Project contends that you wouldn’t have a good answer based on the Governor’s fumbling response in a recent friendly longform interview with Piers Morgan.
DeSantis was beginning his year teaching at the Darlington School in Rome, Georgia when the terrorist attacks that changed America were orchestrated. But those who listened to the Morgan interview would have had no clue that he was shaping some of Georgia’s brightest minds on that dark day.
“I think I’d just graduated college and I didn’t have a care in the world and all of a sudden, Boom. You know, it happened,” DeSantis said.
The Lincoln Project’s Rick Wilson offered explanatory excoriation of the Governor’s gaffe as being of a piece with recent missteps as he continues to move toward a run for the Republican Presidential nomination.
“Every American knows where they were on 9/11, and though he refuses to say it, we know Ron DeSantis was teaching at the elite Darlington school in Georgia on that day. Why he refused to answer has left America questioning his honesty,” Wilson said.
“The Piers Morgan interview was the cherry on top of one of the worst rollouts of a Presidential candidate in decades. In a week where his main rival is terrified he’s about to be arrested, DeSantis actually managed to come out worse. Flip flops, bad policy, and a terrible interview that reached Mudd-Kennedy proportions gave American and his increasingly nervous donors a view of a candidate who is unready, unsteady, and evasive. Ron should stick to fighting with cartoon mice, because he’s not ready for a banking crisis or a war in Europe,” Wilson added.
The ad will, per the Lincoln Project, “run on TV in West Palm Beach on FOX News, in Tallahassee on FOX News and MSNBC, and in Rome, GA on FOX News and MSNBC. It will also run geofenced in Tallahassee and the Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach.”

Why the surprise? Ron DeSantis and his team took a totally disabled benefit away from first responders living in our state. He did this after 84% of the people voted for the constitutional amendment and three attempts by members of his own party leadership to restore it. Now he’s trying to use first responders to enhance his campaign. Just pull up first responders lose tax exemption Fox News Tampa 13 Craig Patrick reporting. DeSantis is not to be trusted.

DeSantis had three opportunities to restore a tax exemption to our totally disabled first responders including 911 heroes and let it be blocked despite appeals to his office. 84% of the people approve this benefit as a constitutional amendment it cost 10 to 14 cents per person per year the vast majority of property appraisers for the counties supported it yet DeSantis let it b blocked. See some totally disabled first responders lose tax exemption. Fox News Tampa 13 Craig Patrick. And other sources on YouTube and check it out. Now he’s trying to use first responders for his campaign. DeSantis is not to be trusted

Seriously? Why did you feel the need to post this?. The man you speak of left LP a while ago. It is sick you make light,. actually a joke, about child molestation. It shows how messed up you are. Good luck with that, Skippy.

Everyone at LP knew what was going on and tolerated it. Just like everyone around Joe Biden knew he showered with his teenage daughter and all his children ended up with drug and sex addictions. Not to mention everyone knew about the corruption as well. And isn’t it the left pushing the genital mutilation of children? Children doing drag and getting dollar trips from grown men pedophiles? Why defend this?

It’s amazing how you rightwingies have sexual references for everything. It’s like you have porn films running in the back of your heads.
Every MAGAt accusation is MAGAt projection.

It does raise a good point – who the hell doesn’t remember where they were on 9/11? Better question, why not come out and just answer the question? If he can’t nail the basics, what will he be like when he does declare and they really start pulling every moment of his life apart

Because who cares about “gotcha” questions! We care about POLICIES and ACTIONS. Governor DeSantis has proven himself over and over again as a chief executive.

He is an opportunist without principal. Abandons disabled first responders from other states and then tries to use first responders in his quest for the presidency. He won’t succeed if we can help it

Mike, great work. Since I currently make more than $36,000 per month from just one straightforward online business, I much applaud your effort! I am aware that you cn-15 can begin building a stable online income with as low as $29,000 and these are only the most fundamental internet operations jobs.

He is a little man, trying to act like a big man. That shit flies in Florida. Real men don’t punch down, they punch up. Ron is an Elite School Graduate who is dumbing down to get the Maga Rubes on his side. No one in other parts of America wants a wanna be Trump or the Real Trump. Trumpism is all about grievance. “My life sucks because some Trans, Blacks, Immigrants or the other is trying to take my shit. (No one wants your double wide) I miss the ole days when Republicans were a “personal responsibility” party.

Only if you like Nazi and authoritarian types of policies. What has done for the people of Florida? Where is our homeowners insurance? Where is the protection of our environment that is the very heart of our economy? What has he done for the overwhelming majority of voters – those over 60? How does censoring quality literature and destroying our school system make Florida better? The man is just another don-the-con wannabe but with Hitleresque tendencies.

Why didn’t DeSantis just answer truthfully? Because he spent that year partying and flirting with the underage students at Darlington. Doesn’t exactly radiate gravitas. Clownish and unprofessional at a minimum. Shows that his authoritarian “concern” about shielding school students from teachers’ supposed agendas is as fake as a four dollar bill.

AFTER 9/11, Rick Wilson went to Happy Hour and Ron DeSantis went down range

DeSantis joined the Navy as a Commissioned Officer in 2004. Ron was a lawyer. He operated a briefcase, not a fighter jet. He was not a SEAL.

Here is the bigger question for Rick Wilson: Where was he and any of the Boy chasing Lincoln Project members. When Ron Desantis was deployed with Navy Seal team 6 in Iraq? You know Bush/Cheney illegal WDM Ghost chase. Ron has a DD214 that says combat deployments. Rick Wilson, Steve Schimdt, George and the other Boy chasers zero combat time. Enough said. Reminder Bush and Cheney killed 300K Iraqi’s and tortured them. War crimes.

No, he wasn’t a Special Operator but he most certainly was down range. He served as a legal adviser to SEAL Team One when they were deployed in Iraq. He was awarded a Bronze Medal for Meritorious Service.
“DeSantis”, said retired Navy Captain Dane Thorleifson, “was a critical part of the task force that had about 400 personnel who were conducting raids, doing interrogations and detentions and moving prisoners into the Iraqi legal system.”
Thorleifson described DeSantis as “one of my very close counsels that as we developed a mission concept of operations, he made sure it was legal. I respected him a lot as a JAG. He was super smart, articulate, resourceful and a positive part of the staff. I relied on him heavily.”
Our Governor wasn’t kicking in doors but he is a combat veterans
