The article goes on to point out that DeSantis was shown Elon's comment and then still refused to condemn it. Rhonda's statement against antisemitism rings very hollow when he refuses to denounce antisemitism that's shown to him.
The guy's actual supporters wave nazi flags. He won't risk disenfranchising them.
I did not see the comment.
Here it is. What do you have to say about it now?
I need more time to process the comment
Is it up for debate whether desaintis is bigoted?
Only for his supporters
I'm pretty sure most of them support him because he's a bigot.
It is, but they also have to keep trying to say he's not one when people point out all the reasons he is one
Has there ever been a more unlikable Presidential candidate? Seriously. Everything about this guy is unpleasant.
I mean, a rapist actually became the President, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
And a mass murderer.
all presidents become mass murderers anyway
Name a United States president since the 1930s that WASN'T guilty of at least one war crime. You can't!
I was going to say William Henry Harrison, but that was 1841.
Cruz in 2016?
Santorum in 2012?
I think what makes DeSantis different right now, is the circus he's putting on in FL to try to demonstrate how extreme he can be. So these despicable and see-through shenanigans are fresh in our memory.
DeSantis walks into a bar and sits at a table with 5 Nazis. The table now has six Nazis.
Something that someone pointed out to me several years ago, when there was some scandal in the US Congress and everyone the press contacted was like "I haven't read it so I don't know anything about it": it may or may not be true that he hasn't read it. But he certainly has a staff member who has read it and informed him about it.
"I haven't seen it" is the equivalent of Yes, I know about it, but it would create difficulties for me if I condemn it, so I'm just very conveniently going to avoid 'seeing' it until this blows over. Also, if you continue to press me about the matter, I'm just going to respond that I haven't seen it because I've been focusing on , so there.
He did nazi the comment.
And hypothetically doesn’t want to see it, and refuses to look for it.
What a useless dumbass.
The political equivalent of putting your fingers in your ears and yelling LA LA LA LA LA at the top of your lungs when they get asked a question they don't want to answer.
see nothing, hear nothing, say nothing
He sure seems to have a lot of opinions about something he claims to know nothing about.
Was the screen to high and was he not wearing his drag queen heels hidden in boots?
Quick somebody show it to him. What a fucking coward.
That is a fine stance however it means he then has to go seek it out and update people after he has seen it
No it's bullshit. He knows what it said. He's giving Musk cover. Fascists always give other fascists cover.
Well obviously, that’s why he’s not going to get back to us
And then the answer of “didn’t see it” no longer holds merit
The fuck is this news story?
