Shady Ukrainian criminal Lev Parnas, convicted in 2021 of campaign finance fraud for funneling Russian money to a Trump PAC, shared with Reuters dozens of 2018 text messages between himself and then-Florida Congressman Ron DeSantis as the short little bastard asked for help raising money and connecting with donors, as well as passing messages along to alcoholic shitbrain Rudy Giuliani.
“Ron DeSantis approached me at the Trump International Hotel and introduced himself, telling me that he was told to come meet me because I was very close with Donald Trump,” Parnas told Reuters, adding that Tiny D needed help securing a formal endorsement from the Orange God Emperor. “He told me he heard I was the guy to speak to because of my relationship with Trump, that’s how he worded it.” In 2019 DeSantis denied any relationship whatsoever with Parnas.
