- Trump supporters are demanding that Ron DeSantis refuse to extradite the former president to New York
- Some are even demanding he call in the National Guard, as fans say they will surround Mar-a-Lago and block traffic
- The former president urged his supporters to ‘protest, protest, protest’ as he claimed he will be arrested Tuesday on criminal charges
Trump supporters are pushing for a ‘MAGA moat’ around Mar-a-Lago to prevent the former president from being arrested as they demand that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis defy New York authorities and refuse to extradite Trump.
The ex-president had claimed on his Truth Social platform that he will likely be arrested on Tuesday on criminal charges related to payments he made to porn star Stormy Daniels.
He even urged his supporters to ‘protest, protest, protest’ as he raged online about the legal case, causing many to show up at his Florida estate with signs, banners and even their own boats.
Now, some MAGA conservatives are demanding that DeSantis refuse to extradite Trump to a ‘Soros DA’ until the Florida government can conduct its own investigation — with some even saying the governor should call in the Florida National Guard to protect Trump.
But so far, DeSantis has remained quiet about the potential arrest, even as other Republicans line up to denounce the possible indictment as an ‘abuse of power.’
Among those calling for action are political commentator Mike Cernovich and radio host Stew Peters.
Cernovich, for his part, demanded that DeSantis refuse to extradite the former president, even offering a statement for the Florida governor to use.
Political strategist and former radio host Joey M. also tweeted ‘if DeSantis signs that extradition request, his political career as we know it would be over. He’d be worse than Pence.
‘If he doesn’t sign them, he becomes a hero to MAGA and possibly becomes the de facto nominee for 2024 – or mends fences with Trump and forms a unity ticket with himself as VP. ‘
Meanwhile, Peters tweeted
There are also similar reports of people calling to surround Mar-a-Lago or block traffic to prevent the former president’s arrest, with many already descending on the Florida estate to protest — as others gather around the New York City Trump Tower.
