The problem is he HAS to be bought, he can’t self fund like Trump.


Trump personally bankrolled his campaigns?

Are you saying that only people who are independently wealthy should run for office, because they’re the only ones who can’t be bought?

We should just do away with it all, and have kings and queens again, I guess.

ooh my god. THE BEACHES?

I imagine it was in the Spring, too, right? When Covid first started and we weren't 100% sure what we were facing?



Ron did more than the beaches. Remember when he threatened liquor licenses for those that didn't comply with his mandates?


Ron DeSantis to bars and restaurants: Follow social distancing guidelines, or else


I think Trump and Ron throwing Covid jabs at each other is a bad look for both of them but part of Ron's rep was how he responded to Covid later on but he was 100% pretty authoritarian on his mandates early on.

JaxNews

The checkpoints were set up in late March as part of an effort to get travelers from New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Louisiana to self-isolate upon arriving in Florida At the checkpoints, motorists from the four states have been required to complete forms that include contact information and trip details.

I remember folks on here from Louisiana raising hell about this...

I will agree he was doing what everyone else was but don't act like there were no shutdowns in Florida or Covid restrictions either...

But in terms of policies, etc., what has he actually done to "fall into following" the "playbook"?


He just feels a bit too guarded in what he’s putting out and it’s coming across as all too calculated and even controlled. This whole, I’m not REALLY running yet, but I’m going all over spouting a bunch of general platitudes (really no POLICIES) so people can see me, is just falling real flat in my view. I think it’s a big reason he’s “lost his luster.”

Another Trump cultist!



Do you subscribe to the NYT? If you do, then you can read where the tweet got the info. I know you guys have a hard time with reading in Bama but at the end of the tweet it says "per NYT"

It's about two days old right? DeSantis came out with his new statement on Ukraine a couple of day ago I thought.

Yea someone advising Ron finally realized aligning with RINOs and the GOPe was hurting more than helping.

That dipshit RobbBro tried this, too.

No. That doesn't say shite about anything being "closed down."

Stop making shite up because your dude was cucked by an elf.

Trump fricked up. DeSantis set the example. There's no way around that.

What does "aligning" even mean, and how is it any different from what Trump has done?

Get the Desantis dong out of your mouth

quote:

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis issued an executive order Friday calling for strict closures of beaches and businesses in Broward and Palm Beach counties. The restrictions are much broader than what he has ordered statewide thus far.

The closures apply to “all movie theatres, concert houses, auditoriums, playhouses, bowling alleys, arcades, gymnasiums, fitness studios and beaches”

Did the checkpoints happen or not?

I can admit Trump fricked up on COVID and that Ron did put COVID restrictions in place as well...

Folks like you are absolutely unhinged on this Ron vs Trump thing...
