      It’s not a bad thing for candidates to go into “unfriendly” territory. Part of the reason Trump got elected in 2016, was that he and his surrogates went into programs on NBC, CNN, and even Bill Maher’s show. They spoke to people outside of their bubble, and it paid off.

      I've watched as Gov. "Skeletor" Scott then Ronnie DeSanctis have done their best to remake FL as a neo-con heaven. FL schools are poor and are ranked in the bottom 7 of the USA.
      The problems facing FL are massive and state-wide. We have no income tax, and our economy is heavily dependent on tourism. The folks in hospitality can't afford their rents. Nurses, police, teachers, retail employees, and most middle class folks can't afford escalating rents and mortgages.
      Our roads are overused and crumbling. Over development has exacerbated flooding during king tides, as drainage can't accommodate the rapid rise in population. Sewage pipes all over South FL continue breaking and leaking millions of gallons of raw sewage thru neighborhoods.
      DeSanctis has zero plans to address this. He's too busy touting the bogus "FL Way" to the rubes in Iowa and New Hampshire. He can't run a full-time national campaign while attending to the duties required in his day job.
      In fact, for years FL had a rule that you couldn't be Governor and campaign for national office simultaneously. Ronnie got his cronies to change that law- convenient, no?

      @dahn57 7 місяців тому

      Why would you listen to someone who want to ban PEOPLE?
      Republicans are already banning and burning books, DeSantis is wrecking Florida's economy, attacking those who make the state money, he's destroying education and libraries through his made up culture war bullshit, he's constantly lying to make himself look "good", even though he's blatantly obviously lying, just like wearing his high heels to try to look big here.
      He's an insane wanna-be dictator, just like Trump, but in slightly different ways.
      He wants TOTAL power do force everyone to do as he says, which means that everyone must be a straight white person and only do the things that DeSantis allows, irrespective of reality or what is actually best for anyone.
      He's done so much to ban ANYTHING that might have helped the people of his state through Covid and many other emergencies. He's STILL whining against Trump's vaccine, even though he and his family have all had the shots, he doesn't want the common people of America to have that same protection.
      DeSantis is a bigot, a hatemonger, a constant liar, an authoritarian, a fascist, a thug, a racist, a misogynist and a psychopath.
      According to him, if you disagree with him, then you are nothing to him. It's literally all or nothing as far as he's concerned, and just like Trump, he thinks he should be worshipped.
      It's funny really how both of them are such small, insignificant and worthless people that they desperately want to appear taller so wear heels, inserts and the like to try to appear bigger and stronger.
      A definite sign of a self-hating, sado-masochistic small souled little men who KNOW that they are small and insignificant but want desperately to be taken seriously.

      @dahn57 7 місяців тому

      Look at all the copy and pasted spam from the same people over and over.
      It's not like we can see you spamming this page raynor.
      And "woke" is what hateful people call compassion.
      Those who constantly whine against woke always seem to be the same people who whine about equality, come out with misogynist comments, or racism, or want to control other people's lives who are not affecting them in any way whatsoever, but they believe that they have the right to tell others what to do with their lives, irrespective of circumstance or situation.
      It's the authoritarians and fascists that complain the most about "woke" nonsense, and they have to invent things because their real issues are either so meaningless or so abusive of other people's rights, that they KNOW that they would get massive pushback.
      That's why Desatan here whines so much about "woke", but rarely gives real examples, instead fear-mongering about things that don't happen, or even worse, happened because of HIS actions, but like all other authoritarians who preach personal responsibility, they take none themselves for anything they do.
      Desantis is a hatemonger, he spends all his time making up lies to tell people, saying that this is what the "Libs" will do to you if they get control, knowing full well that he's lying, and that he himself has FAR worse plans for the people.
      This is the same lying POS that is STILL whining about Covid, but he made sure that he and his family got those shots right away! But he has openly said recently that MORE people should have died from Covid, and that it would have been good if they had! This is the man who made sure HE was protected, but did all he could to make sure that the people of his state were not only NOT protected, but it was illegal to get some of those protections!
      What "woke" really means is being compassionate for others, not just being a selfish, self obsessed turd.
      It means letting other people live their own lives as they wish, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else.
      It means that you control yourself and are responsible for your own words and actions.
      Makes it obvious really why Republicans would be against these things, when they so desperately want total control of America, the government and the people, even though that is against the spirit and word of the Constitution.
      That's why Trump has said that he will tear down the Constitution if he gets in, install himself as "President for Life", take personal control of the DOJ and IRS to use as weapons against anyone who he thinks is against him, how he's going to strip the power from the House and Congress so that they cannot stop him doing whatever he likes.
      If THAT is what you really want for the United States of America, then you, like him, are a traitor to EVERYTHING that America has ever stood for, are standing against the Government, the Constitition, the Law and the People of the USA.
      If that kind of place is where you want to live, just leave the US and go live in North Korea with Trump's lover, or Russia with Trump's master. Unlike those places, you CAN leave America to live elsewhere.
      So go, live in the fascist dictatorship you lust after.
      But realise that even if Trump isn't barred from running due to the Constitution (He is) and isn't in prison for his crimes (He will be), YOU will NOT be in a better place in a Trump US Dictatorship. He and his rich friends will be at the top, and you will be nothing more than fodder, just like everyone else.
      You think that Trump will pluck you out of the crowd and elevate you to some high office, giving you millions of dollars?
      No.
      What will happen is the same that happens to ALL of Trump's cast off minions, you'll be thrown out with nothing, left to suffer the repercussions of your actions with no support from him at all, and he will not even know your name.
      Doubt me?
      Look at what has happened to EVERY ONE of those who has helped Trump.
      Thousands are in jail for him, from a couple of years to what amounts to life for some.
      He's promised to pardon them, but he could have done that before he left office, he just doesn't care.
      He could have pardoned ALL of his close advisers that are now being prosecuted for their actions, but he didn't, he doesn't care. Even those who asked didn't get pardons. A select few have, but even his closest, long term allies are in jail, without the pardons he COULD have given them, but didn't, because he doesn't care.
      He didn't even give his daughter a pardon for anything! The daughter he lusts after constantly!
      Nothing for her, nor her criminal husband.
      He only cares for himself, and he will do NOTHING for anyone else, just like he did last time.
      The ONLY ones who got anything last time were the foreign reps that gave him bribes, the obscenely rich and himself.
      None of YOU Trump worshippers got anything, nothing except for more and more demands that you give the so-called billionaire YOUR money for nothing.
      And you wonder why the rest of the world is laughing at you Trump worshippers?
