Ol’ Pudding Fingers Meatball Ron DeSantis Sure Sounds Like He’s Getting Tired Of Trump’s ‘Juvenile’ Nicknames
"Ron DeSantis has finally fired back at Donald Trump‘s infamous name-calling as the battle for the top of the Republican ticket heats up. Earlier in the year, the former president started workshopping nicknames for DeSantis when it became clear that the Florida governor would be his biggest threat in the GOP primary. Some of those names include “Meatball Ron,” and the one heck of a mouthful, “Ron DeSanctimonious,” which DeSantis has largely ignored until now.
During an appearance on the Jack Heath radio show in New Hampshire, DeSantis was asked about Trump’s name-calling, and he did not hold back.
“I think it’s so petty. I think it’s so juvenile. I don’t think that’s what voters want,” DeSantis said. The Florida governor then took things a step further by suggesting that Trump’s antics is why he lost in 2020."
