Former Labor Sec. Robert Reich asks if Gov. DeSantis’ last name is ‘officially a synonym for fascist’
Fox News ^ | August 24, 2022 | Joe Silverstein , Alexa Moutevelis

Posted on 08/25/2022 10:16:47 AM PDT by lowbridge

Robert Reich, who served as Secretary of Labor during the Clinton administration and is currently a Professor of Public Policy at University of California, Berkley, expressed interest on Tuesday in making the last name of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis an official synonym for "fascist."

Reich is not the first left-wing person to dub the governor a fascist. It has become a more common occurrence as DeSantis has increased his national profile, some think with an eye toward running for the presidency in 2024.

"The View's" Sunny Hostin previously called DeSantis a "fascist and a bigot," MSNBC host Joy Reid call him "an authoritarian on the fascist spectrum," Democrat strategist Fernand Amandi said DeSantis is "what fascism and autocracy sounds like," and liberal commentator Nathan Schneider claimed "DeSantis is following in the footsteps of every fascist regime throughout history."

Reich joined the fray tweeting as Florida primary voting was underway, "Just wondering if ‘DeSantis’ is now officially a synonym for ‘fascist.’"

The Left just loves to call names, don’t they.

Exactly what the big kid in the schoolyard does.

There’s a name for that.

I was going to post about the irony of this fascist idiot making such a comment, but I see that I clearly don’t need to!

The left’s cornered hate... And this piece? It means Robert Reich knows the commie/progressives have lost.

Democrats are washing democrats out of their future plans. It’s rough it’s been his whole life.

You can’t make up this stuff.

A guy named “Reich” calling someone else’s non-German name a fascist.
