In reply to the discussion: Lara Trump says she's removed her name from contention to be Florida's senator [View all]Prairie Gates
(3,574 posts)16. Does anyone recall this kind of nonsense ever happening before?
She's "removing" he "name" from "contention" as a US Senator? I mean, I guess those words all make sense together, but truly, we are through the looking glass. DeSantis hasn't announced any "contenders" (is there a contest of some kind for these contenders?!?), nor has her "name" been anything more than a rumored possibility. These people really live on some weirdo frequency where announcing that you've withdrawn yourself from consideration for a position nobody on Earth thinks you should have is a normal thing. This is bonkers bananas.

Exactly. They're trying to get ahead of it, so it doesn't look like DeSantis screwed the Trumps.

agree. DeSantis talked nasty about Trump for a long time. I don't think he and DeSantis are buddies. IMHO

Good grief, she doesn't even look like the same person after those lip injections and brow lift.
