"You know, these liberal media organizations just throw softball questions to woke Democrat politicians."

Fox News literally plays a game of catch with Ron DeSantis while wearing suits.

Poor Greg, even Republicans in his own state ignore him.

Slightly surprised about Roy, I’m sure he’s got plenty of MAGA idiots in his district who will be confused.

This guy is of the chain:

The DeSantis administration is revoking the Hyatt Regency Miami's alcohol license after one of its facilities hosted "A Drag Queen Christmas" with minors present in the audience.

1947. That must be when magats think America needs to go back to to be “great again”. Citing a 1947 state Supreme Court case is simply amazing

Confusion with only develops with the self realization of their own cognitive dissonance.

Hence they see things with perfect clarity.

How is it that this photo makes him look MORE masculine than he actually is?

The same people that take their kids to Hooter’s. No laws against that though. 

I thought everybody who went to Hooters was a child. A sad crying-on-the-inside 40-year-old child blustering with banter at young women paid to simulate flirting.

I kept waiting for the gotcha with the pudding incident and was left wanting. I see nothing wrong with commitment to the snack pack. For me at least, it goes on the pro side of the pro/con ledger.

Former Guantanamo prisoner: Ron DeSantis watched me being tortured (The Independent)

Mansoor Adayfi, a Yemeni citizen who was held for 14 years on the US Naval base in Cuba, told The Independent in an extraordinary interview that he was brutally force-fed by camp staff during a hunger strike in 2006, and that Mr DeSantis was present for at least one of those sessions.

The United Nations has characterised the force-feeding of hunger strikers at Guantanamo Bay as torture. The US government has denied that the practice amounts to torture, and it has been used against prisoners over successive administrations during hunger strikes.

 

Mr DeSantis was stationed on the base between March 2006 and January 2007, according to his military records.

An investigation by The Independent details the following claims:

  • Two prisoners held at the camp at the time Mr DeSantis was stationed there claim he witnessed the forced-feeding of hunger-striking prisoners.
  • Mr Adayfi claims that Mr DeSantis had initially told him he was there for the detainees’ welfare. 
  • Mr DeSantis was stationed at Guantanamo during a year marked by riots, hunger strikes and death.
  • Part of his role was to field concerns and complaints from prisoners.
  • Mr DeSantis emerged from his time at Guantanamo as an advocate for its continued use, and against the release of detainees

So what's Ron's play?

Attack Donald, potentially lose the crazy right portion of the party (which is significant).

Don't attack Donald, and just get clowned over and over and look like a schlub.

I mean, he has to go after Donald and he may still win the nomination. But I gotta think there are quite a few people that will only vote for Trump and stay home in the lection if he isn't on the ballot, right?

Yep.  Ron is in a weird spot.  He’s only in his mid 40’s.  In a typical America, he’d have 20 more years to build his brand.  But his brand may never get better than it is right now.  He’s not only having to deal with the time conundrum, but possibly facing an incumbent president, and a clinically insane primary opponent in Trump.  
 

if he’s the depressingly pragmatic cat I think he is, he’ll hang back until 2028.  But he’s getting so much damn free media, he’ll be old news by then.  You can tell he wants to clash with Trump, he just doesn’t know how yet.  
 

somebody besides the two of them is going to have to officially light the fuse.  Maybe us?

He's probably hoping as much as we are that he croaks or is arrested before the primaries.

this is where I am. he loses too much going after drumpf directly. best play is to bide his time. but really, where is the fun in that?

This may be right. It's 11 months until Iowa. That's a long time for something to potentially happen to Trump. But it's also a long time for Trump to drag his name through the mud.

I also get the feeling that DeSantis has a bit of a short fuse. You've seen him snap at the press. There's the video of him yelling at kids about "mask theater." I just can't see him avoiding conflict with Trump for months on end. Eventually a reporter is going to ask him for a response to the latest thing and DeSantis is going to light into him.

Dude named Ron who got married at Disney and eats pudding with fingers is a favorite for the presidential nomination. SMDH.
