Florida Gov. DeSantis Slams MSM Book Ban Hoax “They’re Lying”
The Free Press-Tampa ^ | 03/072023 | Mike Jenkins

Posted on 03/08/2023 2:26:13 PM PST by Conservativetpa

Today, Governor Ron DeSantis set the record straight, debunking the mainstream media, unions, and leftist activists’ hoax of empty library bookshelves and political theater pretending that Florida’s schools cannot teach about topics like African American History, including topics like slavery.

Governor DeSantis touted Florida’s high-quality standards for required instruction of African American History, extensive African American History educational requirements in state law that Governor DeSantis has successfully helped expand in recent years.

Oh Ron, it only gets worse. Welcome to Trump’s world. Are you sure you want to get into the fray? I personally do not think you are up for the battle that will beat you down to a pulp, not to mention negatively affect your family as well.

The difference between Pfizer and Kyle Rittenhouse is that all three of Kyle’s shots worked.

DeSantis fights the Left and wins, and you attack him, great.

He has been experiencing this on a regular basis since he became governor. They have thrown everything at him including the kitchen sink with unrelenting negative national media coverage - the best they could do after that onslaught was get his approval down to an event 48%-48% at worst. “Don’t Say Gay” lies, lies accusing him of corruption and kickbacks with Publix, etc. They were beyond dismayed this didn’t work.

I don’t see how you missed all of that. It was unrelenting - and very widely discussed here and elsewhere.

I didn’t attack him, I uttered the truth. I guess you don’t want to hear the truth. Being a governor is all well & good, and he’s doing a great job there, but in my opinion, he’s getting too ahead of his skis. It’s akin to the minor leagues. The major leagues are on a whole different level. Same is true for national politics vs state politics.

Again, it's akin to the minor league in baseball. The major league is on a whole different plane. The same is true when it comes to the national political arena vs. the state political arena.

But you know what, Trump is already experienced in that arena. Ron needs to learn from the master. Is Trump perfect? No, but he is a fighter who is like a pit-bull, unrelenting.

I have followed Ron DeSantis very closely, and I am impressed, but he almost lost to Andrew Gillum. Beating Charlie Christ is no big accomplishment. Gillum should have been even easier. Had it no been for Trump's endorsement of Ron, he most likely would have lost.

You're not even listening to Trump, he's not whining at all. But did Ron whine that he was losing to Andrew Gillum in 2017. Had Trump not endorsed him, he would have lost.

Trump still got more votes in 2020 than DeSantis did in 2022.

No he did not. Are you so fast asleep that you are totally unaware that the 2020 election was a coup d'etat? They even telegraphed the theft during the runup to the election. Do you not realize you are no longer in the country you were born in, provided you were born here that is.

Vote for DeSantis. I'm an old man who doesn't have many years left on the blue ball. You're engaging in a very dangerous game, and you seem totally oblivious as to what is really going on in the world right now, let alone what is even happening in this country.. But trust me, you will have nothing, but you won't be happy at all.

Oh, wait a minute. I have been reading some of these threads, and every time Trump accuses someone of doing some underhanded sniveling act, all the DeSantis bots jump in and say that Trump is whining.

DeSantis accused the MSM, in covering ground previously cleared by Trump, of lying. So, according to their logic, the mighty DeSantis also knows how to whine, it looks like.
