👇 Wow! Impressive. Love DeSantis 👍

Born in Jacksonville, DeSantis spent most of his childhood in Dunedin, Florida. He graduated from Yale University and Harvard Law School. DeSantis joined the United States Navy in 2004, where he was promoted to lieutenant before serving as an advisor to SEAL Team One and being deployed to Iraq in 2007. When he returned to the U.S. a year later, the U.S. Department of Justice appointed DeSantis to serve as a Special Assistant U.S. attorney at the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Middle District of Florida, a position he held until his honorable discharge in 2010.

DeSantis was first elected to Congress in 2012, defeating his Democratic opponent Heather Beaven. During his tenure, he became a founding member of the Freedom Caucus and was an ally of President Donald Trump. DeSantis frequently criticized Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. He briefly ran for U.S. Senate in 2016, but withdrew when incumbent senator Marco Rubio sought reelection.

During his 2018 gubernatorial campaign, DeSantis emphasized his support of Trump. He won the Republican nomination in August, and chose state representative Jeanette Nuñez as his running mate. The close results of the general election between DeSantis and the Democratic nominee, Tallahassee mayor Andrew Gillum, triggered a machine recount. DeSantis was certified the winner with a 0.4% margin of victory.

During the COVID-19 pandemic in Florida, DeSantis resisted imposing restrictions such as face mask mandates, stay-at-home orders, and vaccination requirements. In May 2021, he signed into law a bill that prohibited businesses, schools, cruise ships, and government entities from requiring proof of vaccination. In March 2022, DeSantis signed into law Florida House Bill 1557, which prohibits instruction on sexual orientation or gender identity in public school classrooms from kindergarten to grade 3.

You'd love him then? You can't say why this is good, but surely you think it is?

As I said, he's every bit as evil as Trump - the alleged child rapist - but he's nowhere near as stupid, which means he knows how to get things done (or not done).

Well, supposedly Trump "was right about everything."

Trump Privately Called a Roe v. Wade Reversal ‘Bad’ for His Party

Publicly, former President Donald J. Trump had been remarkably tight-lipped. But privately, he worried the decision could lead to a backlash in the midterms.

I'm surprised he has this much self awareness but not shocked that he was so stupid to not see this coming

This is what I mean: he's incredibly evil, but mind-numbingly stupid.

DeSantis, as evil, corrupt, criminal, and immoral as he is, isn't particularly stupid - he won't make mistakes like this.

It's going to be toxic at the midterms, but there may just be enough gerrymandering and other deceptive tactics used by the GOP that it won't matter.

But with ROE v WADE overturned, a Federal Ban is on the agenda if the Republicans get the numbers.

This has to be stopped at all costs because SSM will be next and practically every bit of progress that's been made over the last 50+ years is at risk.

If nothing else, it's going to make everyone on the left pay attention and vote.

Pretty much my exact thoughts.

Not that it will matter.

The criminal Republicans have learned from their mistakes in 2020, and will probably be able to successfully overturn the election results in 2024.

The US is in real trouble.

After the DNC broke them in 2020 nobody thought that they could be fixed again.....The Republicans will surely fix them in time for 2024.....

Not allowing another election fraud is a 'fix'!

The US should have a uniform, Federal election system for Federal office holders like Prez, VP and the like, rather than a mish-mash of state based systems, some more open to fraud and chicanery than others. They should seriously consider establishing an AEC - American Electoral Commission along the lines of the Australian model.
And make turning up to vote compulsory.

America is buggered, it has been confirmed.

These findings were released today after a recent report from literally everyone else in the world who are currently sitting back watching the empire crumble with dropped jaws.

The study has found that not only is America buggered, but they are also unbelievably delusional in the way they pretend they aren’t buggered.

This comes as cities begin burning in response to law enforcement officers killing people needlessly, in a trend that looks like it might be more linked to the race of the victims than the incompetence of the officers.

Over 100,000 US citizens have died in the last three months due to COVID-19 – a highly contagious illness that has seen an outbreak in millions of cases that their politicians have tried to blame on everyone except themselves.

With a health system that can charge up to $500 for a flu shot, and a minimum wage that is well under $10 an hour in some states, the concept of ‘making it America’ seems less and less likely for anyone whose parents weren’t generationally wealthy construction barons in New York City.

As their nation’s entire economy looks likely to collapse for the second time in a decade, the whole world is now sitting back nervously and waiting to see where they will decide to go to war next. The country’s only proven method for recovering from a recession.

At time of press, close to 6 million people had been diagnosed with Coronavirus. Almost 2 million more people than the entire population of New Zealand.
