Former DeSantis spokesman Steve Cortes flips and backs TRUMP

Former DeSantis spokesman flips and backs TRUMP: Steve Cortes says ex-president is the 'path to restoration' and it's 'time to unite and coalesce around him'
quote:
A former Donald Trump advisor is back in the fold after breaking with the former president and shifting to Ron DeSantis – and now declares that it's time to 'coalesce and unite' behind the former president.
Steve Cortes, formerly a spokesman for the pro-DeSantis superpac Never Back Down, called on fellow Republicans to 'read the room' in a new op-ed after Trump trounced his opponents in the Iowa caucuses.
'Those of us who backed Ron DeSantis – or the other Republican candidates – should read the room. Former President Trump winnowed the field effortlessly and then crushed the remaining three candidates in Iowa. He leads in the polls everywhere else. It is time to coalesce and unite behind the clear preference of the GOP grassroots, Donald John Trump,' he wrote.
quote:
He said it was time to 'coalesce' around Trump – the same pitch Trump himself is making to voters while his team calls on his rivals to drop out. 'With the America First movement acting fully in concert, we will win a historic electoral victory that leads to a full restoration of American greatness,' Cortes predicted.

If I was Trump I’d tell him to kiss off backing the hypocrite

Sounds like he’s angling for a paycheck.

And why is that? Because he knows the money faucet for Bootsie is about to dry up after NH.

Cortes is a guy who has spoken well of Desantis, put his name on the line when he thought Desantis was the better option. Even now, he's not saying negative things about Desantis, he's just saying the writing is on the wall.
Turning on him is petty, IMO. You are what you pretend to hate.

So he’s not going to go to work for a Trump PAC? Do you not know how these things work?

You guys need to get your talking points straight. I realize this is fresh news. You guys will have coalesced around talking points within a couple hours. Talk amongst yourselves.
