ANDREW GILLUM IS OFFENDED RON DESANTIS CALLED HIM ANDREW
Daily Caller ^ | 10/27/18 | Molly Prince

Florida Democratic gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum criticized his Republican challenger Rep. Ron DeSantis on Thursday for having “the nerve” to refer to him by his first name.

“I met [DeSantis] for the first time the other night, and then all of a sudden, without invitation, he was calling me only as Andrew,” Gillum told a crowd at Florida Memorial University. “Between the two of us, he quit his job in Congress — I’m a sitting mayor, and he had the nerve to address me only as Andrew?”

Actually, this interview needs to be played constantly everyday between now and the election. It makes him seem unlikeable and ain’t nobody got no time for dat.

“In politics since the age of 23 Gillum’s never had a real job in his life, but seems to think he’s the most important person alive.”

Ahem ... that reminds me of someone else who shall remain nameless.

DeSantis’ career truly is impressive. Not to mention that back “in the day”, he was a major hunk. Not that this ol’ lady notices those things ;) - - just sayin’.

I was thinking Jimmy Carter, but casually using first names to address politicians probably goes back further than that. It’s just that Gillum is the first to be offended.

People who get hung up on titles are so shallow.

Gillum is one more purebred liberal progre$$ive mutt in the litter.

Do you want to see class? Watch the first two minutes of the 2008 Vice-Presidential debate.

GWEN IFILL: Good evening from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. I'm Gwen Ifill of "The NewsHour" and "Washington Week" on PBS. Welcome to the first and the only 2008 vice presidential debate between the Republican nominee, Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska, and the Democratic nominee, Joe Biden of Delaware.

[snip recitation of rules]

The audience here in the hall has promised to remain very polite, no cheers, applause, no untoward outbursts, except right at this minute now, as we welcome Governor Palin and Senator Biden.

PALIN: Nice to meet you.

BIDEN: Take care tonight.

PALIN: Hey, can I call you Joe?

BIDEN: You can call me Joe.

PALIN: Okay, thanks.

BIDEN: Thank you.

-PJ

I do believe in time we are going to find that Kamala will become a gift that just keeps giving.

Gee Andrew, he could have called you “Sissy”, or “Liar”, or “Crook”. Stay with his calling you Andrew. Your cellmate Bubba will not. He’ll probably call you “Dinner”, “BJ”, or “Mr. Bend-Over”.

And the people of Tallahassee elected this schmuck as mayor? Reset one cruise missile’s coordinates, please.

#23. Good observation about insecure people with severe status anxiety not being elected to high public office.

If that advise had been followed by the voters, NY wouldn’t have The Mouth Cuomo as governor, Commie, fake name DeBlasio as Mayor, and dimwit Gillibrand as senator.

Half of the Democrats in the House and the Senate would still be local officials or in jail or the nuthouse, and Maxine Waters would be counting spiders in San Quentin, along with Kamala “Brown’s Little Willie Friend” Harris, Gov. Lunatic Brown, Gavin “I’m Incompetent” Newsome, and half of the Democrat politicians in and from California.

Space and time restrict me from listing all the rest of those Dems suffering from severe status anxiety. However, just analyzing them would give hundreds or thousands of psychiatrists and psychologists lifetime jobs.

In fact, they would have to form a new university just to handle all this research. Since it would be limited to just Democrats, I suggest a name such as “Freud University”, affectionally known as “FU”.
