Donald Trump is truly a character out of Boardwalk Empire. One of the characters of lesser couth, I’m sure I don’t need to add.
Trump has already launched his own anemic campaign and he was asked today what about Ron DeSantis, the now-golden boy of Fox News and supposedly “De Future” of the Republican party?
Trump’s response was what you would expect.
Trump today on Desantis: “I got him elected, pure and simple. And there was no reason to go wild about endorsing him .. So, now I hear he might want to run against me. So, we’ll handle that the way I handle things.” pic.twitter.com/rBBYyUtnNW

Sounds like he’s going to call Vinny and Rocco to break some legs now, doesn’t it? Or, maybe he’s going to send a mob to attack the Florida capitol. I mean, that’s the way Trump handles things, right?
A few more ideas.

This next one is interesting. Trump had said in the past that he has information on DeSantis that his wife doesn’t have.

Hire a tabloid to run a story claiming death-santis's father was the 2nd gunman on the grassy knoll and mock his wife's appearance

Funny, trump can't seem to face the facts of reality, DeSantis is 23 points ahead of trump.

Maybe this is going to be like the Rocky Horror Picture Show, Trump made him and now he can break him.
Let’s do the time warp again.
Being one of the few people who still remembers and loves Boardwalk Empire, I’m tempted to say that you’re slandering even the worst characters on that show by association. On the other hand, given how most of the cast wound up dead or worse by the end, it’s a fair comparison.
That comment – “I have info on everyone” is probably true and why I think so many R’s have turned a blind eye to his many, many crimes.
