Politico ran a story tonight that revealed how some of the Republicans in the Florida legislature want the taxpayers to help pay Trump’s legal bills and have already begun sponsoring the legislation:

Florida Republicans may set aside millions in taxpayer money to help pay for former President Donald Trump’s multiple legal battles.

A Miami Republican who endorsed Trump’s reelection has filed a bill for this year’s legislative session that could allow the state to hand out up to $5 million to the embattled Republican frontrunner for president. The legislation has already won the endorsement from Jimmy Patronis, the state’s Republican chief financial officer, who for months has been publicly calling for taxpayers to pay to defend Trump from criminal charges.

Governor Ron DeSantis responded to Politico’s story tonight this way:

Boom. And he’s exactly right. If people want to help pay Trump’s legal bills they can surely donate their money to his cause directly. Taxpayers shouldn’t be footing the bill for it.

But this response, which was wholly appropriate, has riled up some of the more obnoxious Trump supporters:

What is wrong with these people? DeSantis didn’t cherry pick anything. He simply responded to the article. He never said Trump asked for it, just suggested that he would veto it. He didn’t attack Trump, but now he’s being accused of not keeping the unity?

People like Pos-obiec aren’t interested in ‘unity’. They just want to see total allegiance to King Trump even if it means putting out bone-headed ideas like this.
