Desantis is a POS and needs his own thread


Gil Bang

Recommended Posts

I was stuck in traffic and listened to the Twitter Desantis interview for 5 minutes. I think he matter of factly rattled off 4-5 acronyms, only one of which I actually knew (CRT). 

Looks like this will be an "extremely online" candidacy almost solely focused on the culture war.

I usually don’t wanted into here, but is this a legit asset put out by Team DeSantis? Which one is running for President?

 

 

I lasted :50 seconds.  Why is there so much Musk in there?  I thought this was about Desantis?  3:30min long?  There better be a detailed plan (yeah, I know) if it's going to last that long.

If you jumped out then (I got to 2:00) you missed the fact that they started to RE-RUN THE SAME FOOTAGE! They appear to only have about 60 seconds of video that recycles!

 

And yes, that is a legit video! That's sad. It looks awful. Given what yesterday was and then this, I would be embarrassed for DeSantis, if he wasn't such a piece of shit.

Is there even such a thing as a normal guy who is a Republican politician anymore?  Is it even possible?  In the last two primaries, the competition has been Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, and this fucking guy.  I'm not even daring to dream for sensible policy positions, sound moral principles, competence, or anything so fancy like that.  I mean, can we even find a guy who can speak like he is an actual human and not a weird alien wearing a skinsuit?

there are a few that on the surface seem sensible, if only by comparison.  folks like chris sununu that can give a 6 minute interview and look reasonably sane when put next to trump or desantis.  he's the type that all the "decent" republican voters are hoping against hope will beat trump and desantis so they can vote for somebody who reminds them of the good old days, where they can have a president they can just ignore.

of course because of these reasons and others, he'll poll around 1-2% and won't win any primaries.  there are some "normal" republican politicians i'm sure, but the voter base is so whacked out right-wing insane, that most of them got beat in their congressional primaries by the mtg's of the world, because they're out of step with the current gqp. 

the ones that run for president will be no different, and in response to these guys/gals getting their shit pushed in during the primaries, the middle of the road republican voter will just have no choice but to hold their nose and pull the lever for trump, because biden is a radical left whack-job socialist baby killer who wants open borders and drag queens serving fentanyl to your kids for breakfast.

same as it ever was.

No no no. Joe Biden has been in public service for 50 years and his entire career can be summed up by the negative effects of the 1994 crime bill. Everything that’s in his heart, his entire soul, can be defined by just that one thing. Nothing else he’s ever done, tge things he says, the people he cares for, the empathy he shows, the diversity of his cabinet, his promotion of freedom and equal rights for everyone…none of that matters. It’s just one thing that defines him and a rational, mature, complex guy like Brothahorn can see that.

That’s why he embraces Ron DeSantis, because he knows what a threat the teaching of African-American history in our schools is to our way of life. We can’t have our white children feeling guilty for how black people have been treated in the past. We need a fascist like Ron to persecute black and brown and LGBTQ communities, not a racist like Joe Biden to choose the first black VP, to select the first black Defense Secretary, to appoint the first black woman to the Supreme Court. Not that racist piece of shit. No, he sponsored a bill 30 years ago and its negative effects prove that in his heart, Joe Biden thinks black peoples are inferior to white people.

Hail Ron.

One of the things that currently stands out about America’s politics are that the two camps now basically inhabit different linguistic spaces. Except for Trump, who inhabits his own. Remarkable how effective garbled syntax and name-calling is.

I guess he’s thinking that he can reach Trumps rednecks through Twitter.  I’m guessing they have enough attention to read some shit talk in a 140 character post from Trump, but not enough to listen to that stupid announcement.

The fact that he apparently thinks hitching his wagon to Elon Musk is the best way to take down Trump is going to lead to even more batshit crazy things than I thought possible.  

"Governor Desantis, why has Lethal Weapon 2 been added on the list of banned materials in the State of Florida?"

"Look, we are against critical race theory in Florida, and that includes being against those who are critical of South Africa's race theories. I'm just saying there are a lot of different opinions about Apartheid - was it bad? Or was it not so bad?  Everyone has to do their own research and decide for themselves."

I feel like the GOP candidates are in one of those getting chased by the bear and just needing to not be the slowest one. But instead of a bear, it's Jack Smith or one of the various other investigations. The candidates just need to get thru the initial shit flinging from Trump, and if/when Trump is unable to run for President, the others have a true chance.

This is who Brothahorn and Icono are jerking it to? Culture war, culture war, talk in vague terms that you can't pin me down on. 

Lulz, If I ever found myself with similar political leanings as that braindead fucknut Icono, I would ask someone to put a bullet in my brain.

This is a parody account yes?

 

GAC vs MAGA?

Come on meatball, do better. "GAC" is the noise that Cruz makes every time Trump shoots a load down his throat, and I'm pretty sure Rafael already trademarked that for his 2028 WH run.

This. 

Just outlast Trump as he goes to the slammer.  But then the last Rep standing will get hammered by Biden so long as there are no major issues like a big credit default to hang on him.  

I'm 100% convinced that the reason Biden is trying to negotiate with McCarthy instead of telling him to fuck off and do his job is that he at least has to look like he's trying and not fuck up the blue wave coming in 2024 that will expand the supreme court (and impeach the crooks) and pass social legislation for women's rights and end the filibuster.

Ha. Now DeSantis is going after Trump for "turning the US over to Fauci". So now each is going to go after the other to prove they weren't Fauci butt boys. This is going to be great. Maybe they'll each have a coronary.

TALLAHASSEE, FL—Attempting his formal announcement again in an effort to compensate for last night’s glitch-ridden debacle on Twitter, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis reportedly relaunched his presidential campaign Thursday from inside a burning Tesla. “America deserves a president who won’t cave to wokeness and will instead embrace the values of our founding fathers,” said DeSantis, who, sitting in the front seat of a Tesla Roadster as it filled with smoke and the doors automatically locked, looked on helplessly when the hood erupted in flames, the self-driving function engaged, and the fiery vehicle tore through the streets, running over numerous pedestrians. “We must rein in the administrative state, and President…President Biden isn’t… Shit, shit, shit. Um, we need—oh God!—we need to shut down the border, and…we, ugh, I need help! Please, call 9-1-1! I can’t control this thing!” At press time, first responders had reportedly rescued DeSantis by pulling him out through one of the Tesla windows, its bulletproof glass having shattered immediately after an officer fired a single shot at it.

You left out the best part. 

the woman that requested these books be banned stated….

Quote

Asked why she wanted the books removed in the first place, Salinas said she had just been expressing her “opinion” that they did not “support the curriculum” but declined to elaborate.

She said she had only read parts of the books.  “They have to read for me because I’m not an expert,” she said. “I’m not a reader. I’m not a book person. I’m a mom involved in my children’s education.”

Love the first dumb farmer, “ you had to have a plan set up before the bill takes place… like the healthcare bill etc”

I am sure he has paid attention to the party in charge. A lot of them will lose their farms and a corp swoop in to buy it at a discount and hire migrants and make a killing. Good…..

It would be nice if these fucking farmers finally realize that the fucking Republican Party has been fucking them for decades and that this latest episode of fuckery is the last fucking straw. But something tells me that ain’t fucking happening any fucking time soon.

See, this is why Republicans need to stick to being bigoted against American blacks and gays.  The lame ass cover story to prove you’re not a bigot - “I love listening to Prince and Diana Ross” or “I watch Project Runway all the time” - is just so much more believable than, “Well, actually I’ll have you know I’m a big fan of [pauses while frantically Googling] … the famous Israeli TV series “Fauda”.  Yes, I’m sure that is how it’s pronounced.  Watching Fauda has been a tradition in our house for many years, or however long it has been on the air.”

Complete aside/tangent---was totally blown away by my in-laws comments earlier this month.  He's finally retiring and giving up the cattle ranch and farming.  But will still hang around the land and direct crews and such.  Understandable.  But they're going on and on about how society needs more churchin' (I was fine with this since they were in town for grand-daughter's first communion).  And being Foxnews watchers, damn brown people and more guns and less woke gays.  And they've always been pretty green for their neck of the woods, and he just launches into this tirade about how the Republican Party's war on the planet is fucking bullshit.  That we need to be stewards of the Earth and protect and preserve what god and nature gave us.  And as a man who has worked the land for 60 years with his hands and knows the tale and walks the walk, it was really cool to hear.  Obviously women can't be trusted to read books or treat their bodies on their own accord, but it was a really need moment.  He's always felt that way but never had the safe space to say it.  His exact words, "There ain't no world but this one, should treat it as such."  It was like listening to Carl Sagan himself.  But yeah, them fucking gays...........

You at least checked off one box.  I’m not checking off any in my family outside of my sister and cousin who both happened to graduate from UT.  Everyone else will do what they’re told to do via social media.

Well he's a White Catholic from rural Kansas in his 70's.  How the fuck do you think he votes?  But he's at least coming to grips with the bill of goods he was sold by bullshit Republicans.  And then he's also facing down the barrel of his wishes that his four daughters (no pics) marry four local, white Catholic boys.  Instead, his oldest married my half-Hispanic Jew-Lutheran ass, next is common-law married to a Vietnamese guy (who I love like a brother), then next one marries a lily white Baptist West Texan (helluva nice guy but family is very anti-Catholic), and then youngest marries a black dude from K.C.  

Moral of the story---help folks see the light with regard to people and the planet even later in life.  Never too late.  There really are some people dying to find the light and happiness later in life, not just embracing more hatred.  

I think spending a few years living in Florida really fucked with my dad.  He was always a hands-off, live and let live Libertarian perhaps Centre-Right Republican for most of his life.  And after spending many years in NYC and FLA, he settles down to work in Pennsylvania and became a very "I honestly don't give a shit.  If I can help, I will help, if not I will get outta the way." type of man.  He spent most of his life dealing with union workforce guys and high level C-suite executives.  He married a woman from Mexico and really never gave a shit about people's background.  And then kinda went numb for a long while.  And in his final years, confided in me that nothing about a person matters except what happens that day.  We are not the sum of our parts.  You don't get to take credit for where you were born.  Every single fucking day, you wake up and justify your existence and when you lay your head to rest-that is the end result of your efforts.  All the rest is noise.  Trump and DeSantis will be gone soon enough.  It's their disciples I'll be cleaning up for decades to come.................
