Countdown For Ron DeSantis

 Ron DeSantis Campaign 'Close to Being Over'—Ex-GOP Governor

Former Maryland GOP Governor Larry Hogan has poured cold water on Ron DeSantis' hopes of being president, saying his campaign is one of the "worst he has ever seen" and predicting a swift end to his bid.

Hogan spoke with CBS News' Major Garrett on Wednesday and commented on DeSantis' campaign so far, and how he has handled the pressure of taking on Republican front-runner, former President Donald Trump.

Hogan said he believes DeSantis has underperformed and has essentially "dropped like a rock" in the Republican leadership race.

Dude’s entire electoral career is close to being over.

Dude has zero charisma and terrible political instincts. 

That's because his whole M.O. is to pander to the right. All he does is pay attention to what the Christo-Fascists are whining about and uses his position to amplify it. He has no original position. Even his first and most prominent commercial when he ran for governor was literally, "copy / paste what Trump says."

I've been following his battle with the Walt Disney Company very closely for a long time and watching him fail more and more tragically at every turn has been sweeter than honey to watch. It's like the state of Florida was sick and its white blood cells turned against it to attack things that are vital for its own survival.

Disney accounts for such a large portion of the state's economy and here's a man with presidential aspirations waging war with the company at the expense of the state's taxpayers.

Who's gonna watch that kind of colossal self-sabotage and see presidential material?

Federal court halts Florida’s drag ban, calling it attempt to ‘suppress the speech’ rights of performers

A federal court temporarily haltedFlorida’s controversial restrictions on drag performances, warning the law was overbroad and could risk infringing on free speech rights.

The SB1438 law, signed in May by Republican governor Ron DeSantis, is “dangerously susceptible to standardless, overbroad enforcement which could sweep up substantial protected speech,” US judge Gregory Presnell wrote in his ruling.

The people who support things like drag bans also say the Constitution was written with religious intent to protect the religious, implying that if you don’t believe in god you somehow forfeit Constitutionally protected rights.

These people missed the bus decades ago. 

DeSantis asks federal judge to dismiss Disney suit, claiming broad immunity

Attorneys for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday asked a federal court to dismiss Disney

’s lawsuit that alleges political retaliation against the company, arguing that he and at least one other defendant are “immune” and that Disney lacks standing to sue them.

The attorneys also argued that Disney’s complaint — that DeSantis targeted the company after it denounced the controversial state classroom bill derided as “Don’t Say Gay” by critics — “fails to state a claim on which relief can be granted.”

Realize that when the media writes things about Desantis like "he's weaponizing freedom to punish his enemies" they are describing fascism.

DeSantis is a fascist, just like Trump. 

Gonna be hard to argue Disneys suit is political retaliation when he openly bragged about how him fucking with them was political retaliation for exercising their first amendment right criticizing law he was passing.

DeSantis’ GOP support declining in new NBC poll

If it’s MONDAY… Russia’s mercenary rebels back down, but Vladimir Putin’s rule appears more uncertain than ever… President Biden makes announcement on nation’s high-speed internet infrastructure at 11:45 am ET… Prosecutors ask to delay Donald Trump’s classified documents trial until December… And Ron DeSantis, in Texas, releases his plan to secure the border, per NBC’s Gabe Gutierrez and Bianca Seward.

But FIRST… Yes, the headline from our new NBC News poll is how former President Donald Trump has increased his lead in the national GOP horserace since his federal indictment in the classified documents probe.  

It’s because even republicans don’t like Republicans.

If DeSantis wants to win this, he needs to go on the attack. Make fun of Chris Christie’s weight, call Mike Pence a traitor

The Republican Party exists for the sake of money and power in its own right. As long as you’re a winner and facilitate their economic priorities, you can’t actually burn any bridges. Treat them like shit, they deserve it, and the voters will reward you
