Once Florida's favorite son, Floridians turn on DeSantis in his bid for president (www.npr.org)

Gov. Ron DeSantis won a decisive reelection in 2022, in a year when Republicans elsewhere didn't fare as well. But now that he's running for president, some in Florida wish he'd do his job at home.

The thing is.. he’s never done his job at home. All he’s done is make laws against “wokeness”, attacked the LGBTQ community, fought with Disney, made abortion illegal, instead of trying to find ways to lower things like homeowners insurance, energy costs, etc.

Can’t wait for him to be gone, but unfortunately the dumbasses here will just elect someone worse, like Matt Gaetz.

That's exactly the job Republicans elected him to do. His bid for president is hurting him at home because he's running against dear leader trump, which is unforgivable in the eyes of the cult.

I saw some news his wife is/will be running for FL Governor.

I’ve seen some stuff that she has political aspirations, but I have a hard time believing the sycophants would choose her over Gaetz. But the Right wing nutjobs here never cease to amaze me with their idiocy, so who knows.
