BOOM! Ron DeSantis Privately Tells Corporate Donors He Is Against U.S Tariffs on Chinese Goods
June 20, 2023 | Sundance |
This is the big one. The Economic Policy is the distinct and singular policy at the core of Make America Great Again. The MAGA coalition is centered around the principles of America First economics, and Ron DeSantis has just admitted he does not support them.
CTH has long warned about Ron DeSantis’ economic policy being driven by the donors who fund him. When he was in congress, DeSantis voted in support of Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) for President Obama, and DeSantis voted in support of the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement (TPP).
These are the trade policies supported by the Club for Growth who was congressman DeSantis’ biggest funder. The Club for Growth also held the pre-announcement donor fundraiser in February of this year in support of DeSantis ’24..
The Wall Street billionaire, hedge fund, multinational corporate alliance, that assembles at Sea Island and funds Ron DeSantis, are fully against America First trade and economic policies. DeSantis has just made an admission of his alignment with that corporate “globalist” outlook to aprivate confab of donors in California.
TheDeSantis campaign is in full panic and retreat modenow that his establishment position is exposed. Thestatements during the secret meeting were leaked.
[CALIFORNIA] […] The Republican snuck in and out of the Coalinga landmark undetected by the public nor the media, by design. He flew in and out of the nearby Coalinga airport, ushered to the back loading docks by unmarked Fresno County Sheriff’s vehicles.
The Central Valley lunch stop for 60 donors — paying $3,300 — was in between a breakfast event in Sacramento, and an evening in southern California. The only indication that something special was going on was a “private event” sign. Most of the questions for the security guard related to the location of the restrooms.
[…] John Harris, the rancher and entrepreneur, hosted the DeSantis event at his eponymous resort, along with Fresno developer Richard F. Spencer. Harris was unable to attend, but Spencer did grant a rare media interview with GV Wire.
[…] The Florida governor also talked about global supply chain problems and China, and “how to make life better for the people here in the United States,” Maher said.Others reported that DeSantis said Trump’s tariffs were “not effective.” (read more)
More about the donor event is HERE – “Around 50 people joined DeSantis for lunch at Harris Ranch in Coalinga, which was hosted by Harris Farms Chairman John Harris and Richard Spencer, the owner of Fresno-based Harris Construction.” (link)
In addition, while in California, DeSantis also went to another Big Club fundraiser. “Governor of Florida Ron DeSantis’s Silicon Valley Peninsula fundraiser was hosted by John Hamilton, a real estate investor who has donated tens of thousands to RINOs and former presidential hopefuls Mitt Romney and John McCain.” (more)
Ron DeSantis aligning against the core values of America First economics is a HUGE warning flare. We have discussed this issue on these pages and in every platform we can reach for a long time. The DeSantis team is trying desperately to recover from sunlight upon their donor influence, but they cannot refute the words of their candidate in support of those donor priorities.
Keep in mind also that Donald Trump recently announced the sweeping “Economic Agenda 47“, which includes baseline tariffs against all imported goods.
♦UNIVERSAL BASELINE TARIFFS: President Trump has announced a plan to replace the Biden system of punishing domestic producers and rewarding outsourcers with a new system that rewards domestic production while taxing foreign companies.
Rather than raising taxes on American producers, President Trump will impose tariffs on FOREIGN producers through a system of universal baseline tariffs on most imported goods. Higher tariffs will increase incrementally if other countries manipulate their currency or otherwise engage in unfair trading practices. (link)
(Steve Cortes thinks we are dumb as a rock if he thinks we would believe the three things DeSantis did, is anywhere close to him not being controlled by big establish donors. Cortes says these lies with full understanding that the only reason he took the job was because of establishment donors himself. He was tired if being associated with Trump, because he wanted the money more. So he sold his soul, if he ever had one.)
