The Malignant Loser takes his tiny gloves off:
Former President Donald Trump finally bestowed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis with one of his infamous nicknames, signaling a rivalry between the two popular Republicans is heating up as both men could run for the GOP nomination for president in 2024.
Trump used the nickname on Saturday while speaking at a rally in Pennsylvania, where he was campaigning for Republican candidates like Dr. Mehmet Oz, who's running for Senate against Democratic Lt. Gov. John Fetterman.
Trump was referencing a poll that showed he was in the lead among other potential Republican nominees when he offhandedly called DeSantis "Ron DeSanctimonious."
It was the first time Trump had debuted the nickname publicly, but New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman, who has long covered Trump, said on Twitter the former president had been testing out the nickname over the past two weeks. (our emphasis)
We'll happily steal the Malignant Loser's nickname, and wish them both the worst. The Malignant Loser has another opportunity to skewer him today in a rally for Li'l Marco Rubio, to which DeSanctimonius was pointedly not invited.
BONUS: The Malignant Loser might also want to keep an eye on, and bestow a nickname to, Virginia's master of the dog whistle, stealth Trumpkin Gov. Glenn Youngkin, who's been campaigning for election deniers all over the country and collecting political IOUs.
BONUS II: Former students recall DeSanctimonious.
BONUS III: The DeSanctimonious nickname is not going over well in some fascist circles. More disarray!
BONUS IV: As a commenter noted, DeSanctimonious' new ad does have more than it's share of sanctimony.
