JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Republican Party of Duval County organized a flotilla on the St. Johns River Saturday to honor Gov. Ron DeSantis. Boat after Boat paraded toward the Main Street Bridge, starting around noon, as some state party leaders watched from the deck of the USS Orleck. GOP leaders said it was the first big, organized flotilla for the governor and more than 1,300 boats registered for the event, which coincided with Jacksonville’s Bicentennial and a quarterly gathering of The Republican Party of Florida in the River City.

“Local Democratic leader says not everyone is happy with DeSantis”

That would be the demoKKKrats who are getting stomped by the Governor.

LOL- as per the video the dirtbag Duval Rat party chairman mentioned “high housing costs and inflation” as a problem for Jax residents- and blames DeSantis

I for one am very happy with governor DeSantis! He is the best governor in America and will be one of the best presidents in history. I really loved it when he called out Texas governor Abbott on having some balls to take responsibility for the Mexican border, to close it and depot all illegals back to their country of origin.

If we just had a few more governors in America, like DeSantis, I would be very, very happy.

After the general election I look forward to there being nothing left of Charlie Crist than a greasy smudge on the pavement

I look forward to more from DeSantis, too!

Wisconsin had a good Governor in Scott Walker. He righted a LOT of wrongs in Wisconsin, got us a pretty much bullet-proof Republican House and Assembly (Senate) to thward the Socialists at every turn, and even though gone, he’s continued to work behind the scenes grooming (bad word; thanks for ruining another WORD, Socialists!) up and coming Republican candidates.

It was too soon for him to run for President, and, of course, President Trump mopped the floor with 17, 18 opponents, which was a friggin’ MIRACLE in its own right, but Scott is still a young man (not much over 50, I think?) so I expect some good things from him in the political future, too.

Yeah, Walker can be a little too ‘Chamber of Commerce’ for me, and he has some faults, but by comparison, he’s probably the best Governor Wisconsin has had since, ‘The Salad Days’ of Tommy Thompson. ;)

And now we have Tony ‘ONE AND DONE’ Evers (D) who was an Art Teacher! Gawd.

I tuned it in on RSBN today. They were interviewing a lady, a DeSantis fan, who said her sister just moved here from California and will be cancelling her vote. Haha she thought that was funny…(not). And she said she sees Florida as turning purple soon. I’m afraid that when DeSantis is done as governor and a few more years Florida will become the new California. I like DeSantis but for the love of Pete please stop telling people to come here!!

She says Florida will be turning purple? Actually, Florida WAS purple but is turning RED. That’s what the registration numbers say.
