About

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis aspires to be the same kind of Autocrat despised by the founders of the United States. He must be exposed for what he is: a great threat to our Democratic Republic and American values. Republicans don't punish big businesses like the Walt Disney Company for disagreeing with them. Fascists do. DeSantis and those like him are a massive threat to our Democracy.

stuff like this makes me think the republicans are using a magic 8-ball to decide how they feel about a candidate. it seems like trump and desantis have very similar strategies and talking points, yet the difference in the polls is so extreme.

(don’t get me wrong, they’re all terrible, and it’s very good that desantis is becoming less popular. hopefully this leads to him not getting re-elected in florida)

It's simple. Nobody cares about his "anti-wokeness" (i.e. willful ignorance) crusade, and secondly, Trump speaks like a moron so the morons like him.

Lastly, DeSatan sounds like a whiny wet noodle every time he speaks. Doesn't matter what your polices are if you're incapable of speaking with confidence. Not to mention the creepy laugh. Dude couldn't make himself more unlikable if he tried.

Don't forget his campaign is so lame they're targeting a fucking teenager who just wanted to ask real questions.

If the dude gets knocked off his game by a fucking 15yo asking a simple question, he doesn't need to be anywhere near a position of importance. Him fighting with Disney is the best that he can do, and he's going to get his floor absolutely mopped by the mouse.

I mean, does Trump really sound much better? I feel like you could say your second paragraph about Trump, but they somehow love him. It isn't just "speaking like a moron", there's more to it here.

Likely because trump got a cult of personality formed around him somehow

But no, yeah, it's very much not based in logic.

Possible. Ask again later.

This just proves these voter idiots aren't voting based on wants or needs because Desantis is just sad garbage in issues as Frump. It's clearly just an absolute cult following.

I don't see it as a win when Mr T is the R front runner.

[–] affiliate 15 points 1 year ago

i wish it was the actual Mr T

The "I pity the fool" guy? I feel like that would be pretty cool as a R front runner. /j
