Here’s what Newsweek reported:
Donald Trump directed a pointed jibe at Republican nominee rival Ron DeSantis, declaring it was “game over” for the Florida governor’s campaign following the exit of a top strategist.
Republican nomination frontrunner Trump mocked the Florida governor on his social media platform Truth Social following Jeff Roe’s resignation from the DeSantis-supporting super PAC Never Back Down (NBD).
“Jeff Roe is out—Game over for DeSanctimonious. #MAGA,” Trump said in the December 16 post.
The jibe was the latest instance where Trump has hit out at DeSantis, who has struggled to gain momentum and has trailed the former president in multiple polls tracking the race to secure the Republican primary.

Per Politico:
Just over an hour after the news broke late Saturday, former President Donald Trump took to social media to deliver the message to his 6.5 million followers.
“Jeff Roe is out – GAME OVER for DeSanctimonious,” Trump posted on Truth Social.
Roe, a top strategist for the main super PAC supporting Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign, had just announced his resignation — the latest high-level member to depart the organization.
Roe’s departure from the PAC, Never Back Down, came within hours of a Washington Post account of the turmoil that rocked the organization in recent weeks. The group fired three of its top officials two weeks ago, including the super PAC’s chief executive officer. The board chair, former Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt, also left, as did the organization’s president, Chris Jankowski.
Game over, president trump will win the nomination!! https://t.co/UsPRTZ8ppn
