President Trump famously threatened Mexican President AMLO with 25 to 50% immediate border tariffs within a week if Mexico didn’t help secure the southern U.S. border. The result was 18,000 activated Mexican National Guards to enforce the “Remain in Mexico” policy, while the border wall was under construction.
The southern border crisis has created an opportunity for a desperate Ron DeSantis to skip the seven-minute-ab border security competition and go straight to the six-minute-ab pitch, whereby a President DeSantis will start shooting Mexicans who attempt to smuggle across the border. Appearing in a heavily coordinated and scripted interview with Rupert Murdoch’s debate moderator, Martha MacCallum, DeSantis announced his “use of deadly force” policy just before traveling to the Yale Club in New York for fundraising.
A gleeful Martha MacCallum was more than willing to support the 6-minute-ab pitch, narrating an introduction of “the governor“, yes, she used that exact descriptive for the guy who is on the monitor. The transparent construct of the interview was made even funnier by the desperate transparency of it. WATCH:

“Desperate for Traction DeSantis Vows to Start Shooting Mexicans at the Border”
Headline reminds me of “Trump locking kids in cages”. Shame on you.
The fact that he wouldn’t wait until 2028 tells you he’s not in charge, the Uniparty is telling him what to do, and what they want is Anybody But Trump.
He also says he is going to eliminate FOUR (4) departments. My favorite radio host when Vivek was saying the same thing a couple months ago, these guys claiming they are going to eliminate this department and that department, they aren’t going to eliminate ANYTHING!
SunDunce strikes again…
If this had been done fifty years ago we would still have our country at the cost of very few lives lost. The message would have been clear and unambiguous to obey the law or pay the price. But no. Shooting civilian alien invaders would be terrible PR. Instead, we now wine them and dine them and deliver their anchor babies for them in fancy hospitals and ER’s at no cost. And they live in hotels while American vets are often found homeless. And we talk now about walls being terrible things. Imagine. So DeSantis isn’t off the mark.
Gezzzz
Original title for the video:
Ron DeSantis: All options are on the table to defend Americans
Sounds a bit different from Sundance’s button-pushing effort which implies that any illegal will be shot at. DeSantis was talking about drug-smugglers. Just how insecure is Sundance and anyone who posts Sundance’s blog to scramble the words and intent of any Republican challenging Trump?
Indeed.
Sundance is right.
DeSantus said on Monday he plans to shoot individuals suspected of drug trafficking or showing “hostile intent” at the border.
The vague nature of the term “hostile intent” is not limited to drug smuggling and is likely another fake promise to claim he is “tougher” than Trump.
I heard this and DeSantis made it clear that he was speaking about criminals and cartel members only. Not that Sundance nor you is intellectually honest enough to tell the whole truth.
You need legislation to eliminate departments! Politicians to imply they can do it by decree are pandering at best, lying at worst!
Typo
Should be ‘politicians who imply’ not ‘politicians to imply’!
If he actually did it, I'd vote for him.
Why should he wait.
You all sound like monarchists.
If he’s so bad then why do yall incessantly cry that he got into race?
Because you know that he’s the real deal and Trump is a pretender
Is that you, Tokyo Rove!?
You sure have been busy!
What a leftist STUPID Headline this gu y is a JOKE.
You are fine with the Leftist headline?
Mexico has declared War on us by allowing the Invasion of the US.
