These guys get political advisors telling them what to do that is either stupid, or infiltrated by the left. What is more Machiavellian then the enemy worming advisors into the close circle?

“Gov. Ron DeSantis hailed the fighting spirit of Ukrainians for resisting Russia’s invasion Wednesday, arguing the French wouldn’t fight back nearly as hard if Vladimir Putin invaded.”

Don’t you love how a politician can go from total devotion to total bum in matter of days on FR.

Over the last 2 years dealing with Covid, how many here on FR hailed DeSantis as a hero ?? Now some consider him a has been, what changed ??

In a hypothetical?... Yeah, I would have to agree with DeSantis. Macron would be on the first plane to the UK and run tail between his legs. The French people the French Army would welcome the invaders with wine and cheese.

Reality ?? I do believe the French would fight just as hard as the Ukraine people if they had a ‘Churchill’ president.

Why say only what's necessary? Just because he can say it doesn't mean he shouldn't. And to all you nattering nabobs of necessaryism, consider this: France's recent and continued capitulation to Muslim culture and values isn't necessary, but it's happening.

France doesn’t allow Muslim girls to wear bags on their heads in public schools; they resist more strongly than us.
