MSNBC Calls 'Mini Fascist' DeSantis a 'Leaner, Meaner Donald Trump'

July 10th, 2023 11:52 PM

MSNBC said the quiet part out loud Monday night during the network's 8pm Eastern show All In when fill-in host Katie Phang openly admitted she would rather have Donald Trump back in the White House if the other option was Florida Governor Ron DeSantis because "Ron DeSantis is a leaner, meaner Donald Trump." As was predicted on Sunday, the leftist media is beginning to openly favor Trump over DeSantis for the GOP nomination. 

Before Phang accidentally told the truth, guest and "Never Trump" Lincoln Project senior advisor Tara Setmayer began smearing DeSantis as a fascist. 

 

 

"Ron DeSantis is his own worst enemy. It doesn't really matter what anyone else does," Setmayer huffed. "People are not going to gravitate towards Ron DeSantis and his mini fascism that he is employing in Florida." 

Setmayer continued: "So, if the argument is about winning, Ron DeSantis is not gonna win anything outside of Florida." 

From there, Phang opened her fangs and admitted: "I still don't want a Ron DeSantis. I’ll take a Donald Trump over a Ron DeSantis any day. Ron DeSantis is a leaner, meaner Donald Trump, and I will go to the grave on that one." 

MSNBC is state-run media so you can bet that Biden and the Democrats feel the same way as Phang does.

MSNBC’s All In

TARA SETMAYER: As far as Chris Christie, and it does this help DeSantis, not really because Ron DeSantis is his own worst enemy. It doesn't really matter what anyone else does. People are not going to gravitate towards Ron DeSantis and his mini fascism that he is employing in Florida. Do you really want to scale that up? So, if the argument is about winning, Ron DeSantis is not gonna win anything outside of Florida. And he’s even losing in his own home state to Donald Trump by 24 to 27 points, depending on the pole. 

KATIE PHANG: David Jolly, Tara Setmayer, I always love spending time with you guys. Look, I’m gonna beat this drum, and they're telling me I gotta go. I'm gonna beat this drum until the cows come home. I still don't want a Ron DeSantis. I’ll take a Donald Trump over a Ron DeSantis any day. Ron DeSantis is a leaner, meaner Donald Trump, and I will go to the grave on that one. Thanks guys for being here. 

SETMAYER: We will have to talk about that another time, Katie.
