DeSantis and every other conservative confronted by his use of “monkey this up” should respond in the same way:

Recite an endless list of phrases with monkey (ex: monkey’s uncle, barrel of monkeys, monkey around, monkey business, monkey wrench, monkey house, monkey see/monkey do, etc.) and then ask, “since when have the countless phrases containing “monkey” been about race - rather than monkeys and all people?”

Exposing leftwing claims and charges as ridiculous nonsense (without being defensive) is the only sane response.

Andrew Gillum is a slick-arsed, race card-flipping b@st@rd.

(That’s right, I said it.)

If you hear the word "monkey" and the first thing that comes to your mind is "black" then you are the racist.

Gillum obviously thinks white people are dogs.

DeSantis would do himself a favor and turn the whole thing into a joke. He should bring packets of mayonnaise, a pocket protector, and a pumpkin latte on set. Then he should smile and say people are too sensitive.

IMHO he should just say that should not have said “monkey,” he shoulda hurled an F-bomb like a Democrat would have done.

He should equate this pearl clutching with the foolishness that went on in Wash DC some years ago.

Never heard of that “Ma’am” story, but nothing surprises me these days. When did that happen?
