Wait a minute. Everyone cheers when Ron DeSantis sticks it to the leftist media. When Doug Mastriano does it, it’s troubling? Are you voting for Mastriano? Also, you know his Wikipedia page has been written by the Shapiro campaign and the leftist media, right?

Mastriano decided he wasn’t going to interact with the enemy media. Whether this is a winning strategy remains to be seen. If he’s elected, I expect he will govern as he’s campaigned: an America First conservative. That sounds pretty good to me. I am not troubled in the least by that. I’m actually sort of excited by it.

DeSantis actually engages with the media, and did so during his first gubernatorial campaign. He doesn’t hide from them. Hiding is a symptom of weakness, not strength.

Gab co-founder and CEO Andrew Torba said, "This is the most important election of the 2022 midterms because Doug is an outspoken Christian. We are going to build a coalition of Christian nationalists, of Christians, of Christian candidates, at the state, local and federal levels and we're going to take this country back for the glory of God." Torba added, "My policy is not to conduct interviews with reporters who aren't Christian or with outlets who aren't Christian and Doug has a very similar media strategy where he does not do interviews with these people. He does not talk to these people. He does not give press access to these people."

Are you voting for Mastriano?

Lol! How many times have I seen this on FR threads? Is there some kind of litmus test now for party loyalty? Do we have a salute? Jeez

What I can’t figure out is how does a guy who was first elected to (any) political office in 2019 and, three years later is his party’s candidate for governor. If a Democrat had this thin of an electoral history, a lot of FReepers would be calling it out.

Personally, I’m sure Mastriano is a decent guy. But his handlers are another story.
