Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is a far more dangerous politician than Donald Trump
MSNBC "News" ^ | April 28, 2022 | Michael Cohen

Posted on 04/30/2022 7:17:40 AM PDT by Republicans 2016 2020

Like Trump, DeSantis' time in office would be marked by attempts to pit Americans against one another. But unlike Trump, DeSantis has the proven ability to follow through.

Ron DeSantis is the governor of Florida, a front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, and quite possibly the most dangerous figure in American politics.

While it’s hard to imagine any politician wresting that title away from Donald Trump, DeSantis brings something to the table that Trump lacks — his ability to translate political vindictiveness, cruelty and demagoguery into policy results.

If he is able to keep getting the results he’s getting, I could live with him being the dictator and taking care of the evil people in this nation as needed and especially the author of this article. These people keep projecting what they’re going to do to us and and lot of people STILL don’t get it.

Yes, SPJNK.

"...quite possibly the most dangerous figure in American politics."

Dangerous to who? Marxists? Tyrannical busy-bodies? Pedophile teachers/groomers? Homeowners that want to pay lower taxes?

Oh, the horror!!

Cause, you know, establishing a Ministry of Truth and trying to win by outlawing your opposition isn’t political vindictiveness or cruelty or anything. Oh no.

But what separates DeSantis from the pack is the lengths he has also gone to attack, intimidate and ultimately silence his political critics.

Exactly what liberals did to me when I was teaching school. All they ever do is project what THEY THEMSELVES ARE.

In the modern Republican (acutally, Democrat) Party, the accumulation of political power trumps all other considerations — morals, ethics and allegiance to democratic principles be damned.

This what THEY do, not us.

Threat to “our democracy”

Our democracy really leaning “their democracy” which means they are in charge and you aren’t and if you do anything to resist you are a threat to “our democracy.”

He is more effective. He would be attractive to a wider audience.

That is true.

DeSantis also doesn’t seem to have a habit of hiring people who end up stabbing him in the back.

As much as I love what Trump has done, he has a lot of baggage to carry into an election. His endorsement would be gold. The pollical problem seems to be to me that while there are some rifts in th democrat ranks the rifts in the republican ranks are much deeper.

“his ability to translate political vindictiveness, cruelty and demagoguery into policy results.”

A perfect description of Barack Obama.
