You can feel the cold terror of the Dems as Ron DoomSantis strides across the American political stage laying waste to the puny mortals nipping at his ankles, President Asterisk among them. The doddering old pervert might have thought he was cunning when asked by a reporter about the Lord Humungous of Florida by asking back “Governor Who?” Of course, the question became whether or not that mush-junkie Matlock superfan was trying to high-hat the competition or whether he really had no idea who the reporter was talking about when DeSantis riposted, “I’m not surprised that Biden doesn’t remember me . . . The question is what else has he forgotten?” Way to turn your diss gambit into a massive self-own, Crusty.
The media is pulling out all the stops to knee-cap DeSantis before he becomes unstoppable through his combination of competence and not caring. So suddenly, according to the regime-licensed media, Florida is a smoldering wasteland of hacking, dying victims of Governor Grim Reaper. Except DeSantis has been out there pushing the vaccine – for people who want it – and the whole “DeSantis is anti-vaxx” kind of contradicts the prior narrative about how DeSantis was colluding with big donors to monopolize the vaxx to line their pockets. Pro-Tip, Lil’ Goebbels Gang – you should try to at least keep your lies consistent. After all, everyone’s not as dumb as your Democratic constituents.
Why is DeSantis invulnerable to their slings and arrows? The not caring is a big part. At some level, Trump still wants to be accepted by the elite – this is why he baffles us by still giving interviews to the shabby likes of Maggie Haberman and Bob Woodward even though they treat him like a Boy Scout trying to earn a Lincoln Project merit badge.
Not DeSantis. He doesn’t care. He’s not about mean tweets. He’s about ripping out their throats by accomplishing things that make them cry.
He’s the future, and the future will hurt, libs.
He’s what’s coming, so brace yourself for the thinkless think pieces on how “DeSantis is Worse Than Trump!” And, improbably, they are right.
DeSantis internalized the lessons of Donald Trump. Mean tweets were great six years ago when the president came down the escalator. But, as Alinsky pointed out, anything that goes on too long becomes a drag. DeSantis understands the base wants results, promises kept, and conservative wokeness. It’s not enough to talk – we demand our pols do. Trump’s biggest success came when he was keeping promises – in fact, he kept more than anyone had any right to expect. And we need to know that our standard bearer knows what time it is – that means he gets, instinctively, that this is a freedom vs. serfdom scenario in which our enemies want us disenfranchised, disarmed, and sometimes dead.
DeSantis, with his honey badger DNA, is a relentless killdozer of conservative activism. And all the liberal tears just bead up and run off him.
He’s not the only Conservaterminator. Some get it instinctively – Ric Grenell comes to mind. So does former National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien. For others, DeSantis’s America First gravity is pulling them along. The Greg Abbots of the world might not be so aggressive but for the Florida example, yet they understand that there are only two kinds of Republicans now – our kind, and the kind who are doomed to the cruise ship circuit. Pick a side, us or Ahoy.
Those are the losers, the ones who have fallen out in the great road march to victory. Asterisk *dministration-approved sellout Asa! Hutchinson has fully committed to earning, through slobbering obedience, a seat on the Walmart board. When he’s not following the Official Narrative that boys pretending to be girls are girls, he’s decrying how his legislature won’t let him please his masters by decreeing that all of Arkansas participate in the pandemic performance art of mandatory masking. Asa! will certainly earn his biscuit and cash-in. Look for him on MSNBCNN explaining how True Conservatives™ are utterly scandalized by those uncouth barbarians like DeSantis with their masculinity and refusal to conform. “That’s not who we are!” they sob.
Then there’s Kristi! Noem, who hilariously thinks she’s still a player after her own transexual fiasco in which whatever morons are advising her decided the best way to address the issue was to tell the people protesting her total backtracking on her promise to protect girl’s sports that they were just too stupid to understand how her betrayal was actually total support, somehow. She’s more tone-deaf than the guys from Nickelback – she supposedly just attended a fundraiser with John Boehner, if you can believe it. What, was Paul Ryan busy? And she is taking down other clueless Republicans – Jane Timken just detonated her Ohio Senate campaign by accepting South Dakota Jeb!’s endorsement.
Please clap as Kristi! continues to mosey on, thinking that she’s got a shot, and taking shots at DeSantis for disobeying the Chamber of Commerce. It won’t help. She’s done. When it got tough, she folded to the establishment. She’s disqualified. No appeals. No second chances. If Kristi! wishes to serve the conservative movement instead of her own ambition, she can still do it – as a cautionary example of what happens when you sell us out to your corporate donors.
And the less said about Nikki! Haley the better. She’s just a few lost primaries and a spoonful of resentment at us wokecons from becoming the Mitt Romney of Liz Cheneys.
In 2024, it’ll be Trump again, or DeSantis, or perhaps someone else who is hard. But it won’t be a squish. This is the time of the winnowing, folks. Chaff, away with you – we want the wheat. If you aren’t all in for us, through thick and thin, despite media whining and the pearl-clutching of the softcons, you’re done. Over. End of story.
Here in Florida we narrowly avoided the same crap Calif. & N.Y. are suffering from.
Here We have DeSantis, There they have Newsome and Cuomo. Good luck with that.
Yep… 2022 and 2024 will not be years for the “squishes”.
OUTSTANDING ARTICLE!
Anyone who gets in needs to bring a flamethrower. The FBI, DOJ, State Dept — lop off the the top 20% of the staff, send them to their new branch office in Greenland, whatever it takes. The backstabbers will stab you in the back unless you get them first. No time for compromise, reaching across the aisle, working with the opposition — none of that. No kid stuff. The other side is evil and needs to be treated as such.
Kurt Schlichter does have a way of writing articles that make you say.....OUTSTANDING...and TRUE...
They’re probably a few dozen maybe more Generals and Admirals that need to be retired and thorough research should be done on those Junior Officers that will take their place on their views....
Then root out all the evil from our Military Academies so we are training real Warriors not Social Justice Warriors.
Truly scary considering how close you guys came to having a gay corrupt meth head as governor.
The article is correct about how easy it was in Florida to get vaccinated, thanks to our governor. 157 days later I feel as healthy as ever and looking eagerly forward to booked cruise next month. It has been 18 months since last cruise in Feb 2020 and I am having withdrawal symptoms. Never go more than 6 months between Cruises.
You know that same thought crosses my mind often.
“Now that Florida is making coronavirus shots available to people age 40 and up, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis said Wednesday he’s going to get his vaccine this week.
“DeSantis, 42, will join about 6 million people in Florida who have already received at least the first dose of a vaccine.”

DeSantis is the leader America needs.
Democrats are a VERY SICK people.
Caught in a hotel room with a male prostitute and a bucket load of drugs.
Andrew Gillum was the democrats kind of man.
20%????? Sadly more like 75% are CORRUPT in ALL those agencies!
Day One: ALL political appointees are fired. Then, don’t name any replacements. Start e,iminating departments by transferring people to the boondocks - one person offices with no communications.
I don’t know how it really works inside the Executive Branch, but I would like to see a president with a heavy hand on department funding.
Congress does determine the budgets, but I think that somewhat amounts to “A billion dollars for the FBI this year, with $100M available for this, and $50M available for that.” But it would be nice if the president, as head of the Executive Branch, could be superior to the FBI Director and basically say, “That $1B will be used to fill a cardboard box under my desk this year. No spending for the FBI. None. Close up that shop, because that money will not be spent.”
And, of course, take that approach in many, many areas. Starve the beast. Let those people go.
One can hope.
The left will just create some situations and declare DeSantis racist/homophobe/sexist/transphobe/ etc and the media will all repeat it endlessly, like they did with Trump and Charlottesville.
They will do what they did with Trump: create a false image of a personality that doesn’t exist, and then all make themselves believe the image.
Maybe a Trump/DeSantis ticket?
Trump/DeSantis, maybe. But DeSantis/Anyone else is a non-starter.
One thing that I have not seen any commentary on is how unique Trump is. He’s made his millions, in fact, billions. So post-Presidential appointments do not matter to him. At Trump’s age he has more money than he can spend, with more coming in all of the time for his family. DeSantis? Not so much. Post-Presidential earnings may sway him.
Related is the question of security. Trump has enough money to buy top-notch security for himself and his family; now and in the future. IMHO it was likely the Deep State threatening Pence, or very likely his family, that caused him to turn in the face of obvious vote fraud. Ditto SCOTUS (notice it was only the childless Thomas and Scalia with grown children that supported Trump). How would DeSantis handle his post-Presidential security if he crossed the deep state? We’ve reached third world status where retribution will follow an ex-office holder forever.
