DeSantis Goes to War

People do not uproot themselves and leave the rhythms of home “for light and transient causes.” People are not coming to Florida just for the weather. They are fleeing the woke regime of blue America—an abusive, lawless, totalitarian regime which is waging war against American principles and the American way of life...For the American regime, a just society is one in which free men and women pursue happiness according to their abilities and according to nature. Such a society is one where merit rules. For the woke regime, on the other hand, a just society is one where the regime imposes identity group quotas based on victimhood rankings. Such a regime makes war on merit.

It’s one regime or the other.

Desantis would barely make it to 60-65 million votes if he ran for pResident. We need someone with chops. Trump.

Trump is pro vax and anti vax mandate like most sane rational people. There were no fedral mandated lockdowns. Feds “recommended” lockdowns. Wokeness???

[MayflowerMadam]

“Trump partied with LGBT crowd and celebrated the horrible Defense of Marriage Act passed by the RINOs.”

And he posted something about Christian voters’ opinions on abortion in regard to rape and incest. I don’t recall the verbiage, but I thought he was on the wrong side of the subject.

Which POTUS was as successful as Trump? Look at what Trump accomplished:

1. Gas price per gallon was about $2.30;
2. Inflation about 1.4%, mortgage rates were half of what they are now;
3. Unemployment was low before Covid and before Blue Governors shut everything down and we were in the midst of a V-shape recovery until January 22, 2021;
4. Tax decrease; tax laws promoted small businesses as well as large;
5. US enjoyed energy independence - No Green Agenda, no war on energy, No Paris Treaty;
6. No war in Ukraine, no threat of nuclear war, NATO paid its way;
7. China was quiet and we were winning the trade war;
8. US companies were bringing home the jobs due to well executed tax treatments;
9. Peace in the Middle East aka Abraham Accords; US Embassy moved to Jerusalem; and Iran was isolated.
10. Got three non-left “I don't know what a woman is” Supreme Court Justices on the bench allowing Roe vs Wade to be overturned.

Who the heck can accomplish the above in four years while being impeached twice and investigated by Obama's Weaponized Agencies?

Trump ended abortion. Any questions?

[JBW1949]

I don’t think DeSantis and Trump are enemies....I think Never-Trumpers have pushed and pushed this...

[central_va]

Every day that goes by Desantis becomes more forgettable and irrelevent.

[TexasGator]

“Democrats and Republicans are against him.”

ROTFLMAO!

[central_va]

Who is this Desantis person?

[TexasGator]

“Desantis is MAGA Lite, 1/3 less nationalism.”

DeSantis was MAGA BRFORE Trump!

[M_Continuum]

So there’s no more abortions anywhere, at anytime?

[TexasGator]

“Desantis was losing his first governors race until Trump pushed hime over the line.”

DeSantis helped Trump win in 2016.

[central_va]

Abortion is a states right issue because of Trump. Thank him.

[SoConPubbie]

Democrats and Republicans are against him.

Not the Globalist or Establishment Republicans, including Paul Ryan and others.

They're all in on DeSantis.

[TexasGator]

“Desantis would barely make it to 60-65 million votes if he ran for pResident. We need someone with chops. Trump.”

And another loss.

[SoConPubbie]

Does that mean DeSantis is obligated to promote vaccines, lockdowns, and wokeness in his state?

Obligated or not, that is exactly what DeSantis did.

[TexasGator]

"Who is this Desantis person?"

[central_va]

LOL. Read:

Ron DeSantis Won Florida Governor's Race by Tying Himself to Trump

[TexasGator]

“Obligated or not, that is exactly what DeSantis did.”

You are getting really desperate!
