Get out of the fucking way fool! You're killing people

1. I don't know why people think he will be

He has zero charisma. He's my Governor, and I hate him, but at least Trump has that weird NaziAlphaMaleBeatOurWivesLOL vibe which certain RWNJs like. DeSantis doesn't even have that. He barely won against a bad candidate. Gwen Graham would have roasted his coconuts.

[malaise]

2. THe good news is that self destructions appears s to be

his chosen path to ignominy

[obamanut2012]

16. Totally agree, my friend!

[Cicada]

12. I think DeSantis is the strongest Republican contender

First, Florida has a lot of electoral votes. Second he’s smarter than Haley and Rubio. Being pro covid is a big plus among Republicans primary voters. Attacking Fauci, CDC, mandates plays well with Trump lovers.

[obamanut2012]

17. I don't

He doesn't even play that well HERE, except with his base base. My quite wingnutty coworker voted for him, but now loathes him because of his covid response. She said she'll vote for Crist, maybe Graham if she wins. She won't vote for Gov at all if the Dem candidate is Fried. She has never voted for a Democrat EVER, but would vote for Crist or Graham, and that is huge.

She is a native Floridian, was President of her Young Republican Club in college, and voted for Trump twice, but voting for DeSantis again is a bridge too far.

21. I hope you are right

My wife like to point out how savvy I am. For instance I predicted Bob Dole was going to defeat Clinton in 1996.

22. I heard on CNN two or three days ago that according to polls, he is a distant second choice

for Republicans behind Trump.

All other potential contenders were behind DeSantis.

He is also considered a potential first choice for Trump in the VP slot.

They say DeSantis has good political instincts that appeal to the conservative mind.

I think he's been riding high with conservatives with his pro-COVID policies, but this is about to backfire on him as the delta variant is just too prolific.

People are dying because of him.

4. A free state vs. dead people as desantis puts it...playing politics with

people's lives is one of the most irresponsible things that one can do and desantis wants to be president one day?

It will take decades to recover from trump's excesses of his four years as a pretend president of the US, we don't need another pretend president with an over-sized ego again.

5. It is not free when you tell business that they can't enforce their own health regulations

He has no authority to tell the cruise ship industry that they can't enforce vaccine regulations - to be kind he's a fucking idiot.

[SWBTATTReg]

10. I'm referring to desantis' use of this term in his speech...maybe you read it?

--snip--
DeSantis to Biden: 'Why don't you do your job?'

...
...
DeSantis also criticized Biden's endorsement of New York City's move to require vaccinations to dine indoors or go to the gym.

"Joe Biden also believes that vaccinations should be mandated by force of government and that you should have to show vaccination status to be able to participate in society," DeSantis said. "He wants that, but yet if you want to vote, he thinks it's too much of a burden to show a picture I.D. when you're voting. So no voter I.D., but have to show your medical papers just to be able to live an every day life? Give me a break.

=========> So I think the question is: we can either have a free society or we can have a bio-medical security state. And I can tell you, Florida, we're a free state."

11. I read it and watched it

Wasn't responding to your specific comment but to his BS orders and his response to the cruise ship industry.
He contradicts himself over and over

[SamKnause]

6. Many thought and said Trump would never be president.

With the raging insanity and evil ravaging this country anything is possible.

[malaise]

7. I was one of them

This one doesn't have the reality TV bullshit to help him. He has the personality of roadkill.

[obamanut2012]

19. DeSantis is very different than Trump -- he won't play well on the big stage

Which Trump did to certain people.

[panader0]

8. I wasn't aware that Florida shared a border with Mexico.

Besides, the claim of "open borders" is untrue. I live close to the border and have seen no uptick
in crossers.

[malaise]

9. With sharpies

all things are possible

[FM123]

13. Never gonna be president...

especially since all three of our top FL demons (DeSatan, Rube and SickScott) hate each other and are constantly trying to stab each other in the back or throw each other under the bus - one of them will pull the rug out from under DeSantis, no honor among thieves or sociopaths.

[obamanut2012]

20. Also a great point!

[bullwinkle428]

14. All due respect - Chump didn't exactly have a post-graduate degree

from charm school!

[malaise]

18. On the contrary

What teh Slobfather had was the Reality TV BS in an age where likes are more important than rational thinking. I have to assume that folks learned something from this fiasco

[rso]

15. DeSantis

And in addition to being lousy on policy, he's much too short and obese to be accepted by the Electorate.
