Charlie Crist used to be a Republican. Then he became an independent. Later he was a Democrat. Now, the protean politician appears to be portraying himself as the candidate of the Party of God!
Crist appeared on Wednesday's Morning Joe, the day after he won the Florida Democrat gubernatorial primary. At one point he was asked how he would take on Governor Ron DeSantis. Crist began by comparing DeSantis' approval rating of 50 percent to the 72 percent Crist claimed to enjoy at one point during his tenure as governor (back when he was a Republican).
When Crist called his "amazing" popularity a "God thing," I was certain it was a typo. Crist must have said that it was a "good thing." Surely, no politician could possibly be so presumptuous as to claim that his approval rating was a "God thing!"
But, incredibly, as the video [at 1:30] revealed, "God thing" was precisely what Crist said! And that was just the first of many religious references Crist crammed into the interview, including ostentatiously displaying his Golden Rule wristbands--see screencap!
Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

I’m just gonna sit back and let the comments role in on this one.
Take it away, folks!
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
That’s “roll,” not role, in. Although you could say ol’ Charlie was playing the role of a very religious guy!
The dude looks like a used car salesman.
Crist is a worm with a good sun tan. . . .
Charlie Crist is the picture definition of insane.
A faggot wears wristbands.
Stop the presses.
It’s a Sun God thing with Charlie Crisp.
He looks like the sexual degenerate he is.
Voters are Moving to the Right Across Almost Every Demographic, Says Massive Survey

Morning Consult has reported five years’ worth of data from over 8.6 million participants that shows a trend of America’s registered voters moving steadily to the ideological right.
“The left is losing the battle for the minds of the American electorate, Morning Consult research shows, with voters decreasingly identifying as liberal in recent years,” writes Morning Consult political reporter Eli Yokley. “But that doesn’t mean the country is lurching to the right.”
Yokley then makes an effort to pretend the trend isn’t what it looks like: “Instead, an increase in the share of Americans who identify as moderate, or who are uncertain about where exactly they stand on the ideological spectrum, reveals a growing and electorally decisive center that is discontented with either side’s extremes.”
Except that the percentage of voters who identify as conservative actually increased slightly, while only those who call themselves liberal decreased. Call me crazy but that just sounds like Democrats are turning away from far-left ideology to become more moderate:
The share of the electorate who identifies as “very liberal,” “liberal” or “somewhat liberal” on a seven-point scale has dropped over the past five years, from 34% to 27%, according to extensive annual Morning Consult survey research conducted among more than 8.6 million U.S. voters since 2017.
Meanwhile, “Even as Democratic voters drift toward the middle, the data shows that the Republican Party’s adherents are shifting further to the right — and it’s happening quickly,” writes Yokley.
Or to put it another way, the whole country is moving in a rightward direction.
This trend is concurrent with the largest group of people consistently falling into the conservative camp — 39% in 2022, from 38% in 2017. Meanwhile, the liberal cohort has shrunk from a high of 34% in 2017 to a mere 27% as of now.

“DeSantis’ approval rating of 50 percent “
Hmm, I thought his approval was much higher
A God? Well, he must be Jesus Crist.
Hang on! A Rat Party swamp creature is acknowledging God’s existence? Sounds like a Hail Mary pass to me.
No doubt. Crist was bending over backward to portray himself as a deeply religious man. Clearly hoping to attract religious voters. I don’t see it working.
A Republican, an Independent, and a Democrat walk into a bar.
The bartender says, “Hi Charlie!”
When Crist was Governor of FL for one term, he didn’t even own property in Florida. Eventually he married his beard. She had a home in FL.
A lot of Americans don’t like rioters burning their cities or perverts “grooming” their children. These things have become common as the Democrats, according to the article, have become more “moderate.”
So wokeness is ok with Jesus now? Jesus was woke? He stay on script or wander off?
