Trump: I won’t call DeSantis “Meatball Ron” - POLITICO
Donald Trump on Saturday said he wouldn’t use the nickname “Meatball Ron” to describe Ron DeSantis, a likely rival for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024.
In a Truth Social post, the former president said it would be “inappropriate” to use the word “‘meatball’ as a moniker, which has been described as referring to DeSantis’ appearance and carries connotations to his Italian lineage.
Hey man I’ll say it Ron DeSanctimonious is great. A “C” nickname at first that becomes better every time he uses it. One Ron is Sanctimonious. So it works. Two it’s so bad it’s good. Idk meatball ron is also great.
