More I see of this guy, its clear he’s just another establishment guy, putting on a mask.

Washington didn’t run for a third term, he didn’t have a election stolen...

This guys supposed to be a fighter? Comparing these 2 situations as equivalent makes me doubt it.

Acts like this make me believe if Florida’s legislature wasn’t so heavily controlled by Republicans, he’d just be caving to anything the dems wanted.

On the eighth day, God created DeSantis.

George Washington did not have an election stolen from him.

Uh, George Washington never had an election loss.

And giving up is not what General Washington did when the war was upon us:

He needs to stick to running Florida. The times now and the times back then are not similar in any way. There wasn’t a massive base of voters who wanted America to fail like there is now.

Many here would be pleasantly surprised what Rep governors have been doing - the same things DeSantis has done without the fanfare.

Shocking how easy it is to get conservative legislation when the legislature is republican.

Be leery of any shiny toy from the uniparty because is was made in China-lobby town. Not the MAGA USA. If you’re not sure, simply pull the string and test the canned answer.

Governor DeSantis is 100% correct. Trump created false hopes in the feeble minded and in those who lack understanding in the electoral process. Our institutions are bigger than one man…our Founders understood that.

Troll ALERT!!!!
Our Governor won by almost 20 pts. Idiots like yourself aren’t going to recall the most popular Governor in the country.

the institutions causing the problems were not around 240 years ago at are founding. reality is that the founding fathers would be upset about the creation of this government bureaucracy.

Our founders understood that if our institutions have become so corrupted that a fraudulent election is allowed to stand, then we no longer have a republic. They would not have looked kindly on your arrogant indifference. Accepting such an outcome because “that’s the way our electoral process works” would not have been an option for them. They would have despised those who, like yourself, are content with such an outcome.

DeSandtits proved he was establishment when he has completely ignored what the establishment has done to Palestine OH. Ignore the establishment because you are part of it. He sounds like the Bush’s when they were running for President.
