Now that Ron DeSanctimonious is finally admitting he’s in the Race by beginning to fight back, and now that his Polls have crashed so he has no other choice, let me explain the facts. He is, for a Republican, an average Governor, he got 1.2 million less Votes in Florida than me, he fought for massive cuts in Social Security and Medicare, and wanted Social Security minimum age to be raised to 70-years-old, or more. He is a disciple of Paul Ryan, and did whatever Ryan told him to do…

This multi-post barrage against DeSantis represents a textbook narcissistic counter-attack triggered by DeSantis's public mockery regarding the Stormy Daniels case. The timing is significant: Trump had just falsely predicted his own arrest, creating vulnerability, and DeSantis exploited the moment to assert independence. The response is grossly disproportionate — five or more detailed posts systematically attacking Florida's record in response to a few quips. The attack strategy reveals sophisticated political cunning even within a rage state: linking DeSantis to Paul Ryan (unpopular with MAGA base), attacking on Social Security/Medicare (targeting elderly primary voters), and cherry-picking unfavorable Florida statistics. The condescending frame ("let me explain the facts") serves to reassert hierarchical dominance over someone Trump views as a subordinate creation. The core narcissistic schema is ownership: Trump claims credit for DeSantis's position and treats independent action as betrayal. The companion post's "I put Ron there" is the thread's psychological keystone — revealing that DeSantis's real offense isn't policy disagreement but status insubordination. Factual claims are selectively accurate but misleadingly framed (comparing presidential turnout to midterm, etc.). No danger indicators present; this is political destruction rather than eliminationist rhetoric.

Fact Checks (3)

"DeSantis got 1.2 million less votes in Florida than Trump"

Mostly True

Trump won Florida in 2020 with ~5.67M votes; DeSantis won in 2022 with ~4.61M — difference is approximately 1.06M. Close but slightly exaggerated, and the comparison ignores that midterms have lower turnout than presidential elections.

"DeSantis fought for massive cuts in Social Security and Medicare"

Mostly True

As a congressman, DeSantis supported RSC budgets that proposed restructuring Medicare and raising Social Security retirement age. 'Massive cuts' is editorialized but the directional claim has basis.

"DeSantis wanted Social Security minimum age raised to 70 or more"

Half True

DeSantis supported proposals to gradually raise the retirement age, though specific numbers varied by proposal. The framing as 'minimum age' conflates retirement age with eligibility.

Psychological Analysis: Anti-DeSantis Attack Salvo (2023-03-22)

This post is part of a multi-post barrage attacking Ron DeSantis, triggered by DeSantis's public comments needling Trump about the Stormy Daniels hush money case. The timing is critical: Trump had just predicted his own arrest (which didn't happen), and DeSantis broke his silence to mock him. This is classic narcissistic counter-attack following perceived betrayal and humiliation.

Trigger Analysis

DeSantis's public mockery ("I don't know what goes into paying hush money to a porn star") constitutes a narcissistic injury on multiple levels: (1) public humiliation from someone Trump considers a subordinate ("I put Ron there"), (2) exposure of vulnerability during the legal crisis, (3) a status challenge from within the in-group.

Defense Mechanisms

Devaluation: Systematic reduction of DeSantis from rising star to "average Governor"
Projection: Framing DeSantis as someone who does "whatever [Ryan] told him to do" — a dependency/puppet accusation Trump himself frequently faces
Distortion: Cherry-picking statistics across the multi-post thread to construct a narrative of Florida failure

Rhetorical Structure

The post opens with the trademark nickname ("DeSanctimonious"), frames DeSantis as desperate ("polls have crashed"), then adopts a condescending teacher pose ("let me explain the facts"). The Social Security/Medicare attack is strategically chosen to damage DeSantis with the GOP's older base.

Narcissistic Hierarchy Enforcement

The phrase "I put Ron there" (in a companion post) reveals the core schema: DeSantis exists as a creation of Trump, and any independent assertion of status is treasonous ingratitude. This is textbook narcissistic entitlement in hierarchical relationships.
