“With Donald Trump under at least four different criminal investigations and after he tanked three successive elections, including last year’s midterms, there’s been a question as to whether rightwing media would finally pivot away from him and embrace Florida governor Ron DeSantis.
It started to seem like maybe that would happen, with fawning profiles and a literal softball interview in which host Brian Kilmeade played catch with DeSantis. But on Monday evening, Sean Hannity gave Trump the floor on his show to disparage DeSantis and to claim that his Truth Social post calling for ‘death & destruction’ should he be arrested was not actually calling for death and destruction.
Or, as Trump put it: ‘I said I’m afraid that if they do this, which is a fake prosecution…I am afraid that people will do something.’ Yeah, he didn’t say, ‘I’m going to burn down your restaurant.’ He said, ‘it would be a shame if something were to happen to your nice restaurant in the middle of the night, say 2am or so, capeesh?’” —Seth Meyers
