Ice-cold DeSantis shows zero support for wife's speech
BB ^ | 6/2/23 | Mark Frauenfelder

Posted on 06/02/2023 12:30:47 PM PDT by conservative98

Governor DeSantis's wife took the stage to deliver a speech, presumably on a topic close to her heart — their three-year-old child. Admittedly, it was dull and she should fire her speechwriter. But hubby Ron should have at least pretended to care about what she was saying. Instead, the mean-spirited Presidential candidate failed to exhibit even a hint of interest.

Rather than lending a supportive presence at the side of his wife, DeSantis looked as if he'd rather be anywhere else. Standing on the extreme side of the stage, his body language revealed boredom, annoyance, and a general disconnection from the words being spoken. As he fidgeted, not seeming to know what to do with his hands, you could almost hear him thinking, "Get me the hell out of here."

Nevertheless, one can only wonder if the seeming boredom on his part is simply an indication of a man who lives for power and spectacle, someone who thrives on the adrenaline rush of cruel political stunts. Or perhaps he's just a man trapped in a situation of his own making.

He knows he made a horrible mistake getting in the race. It’s not going to end well for him.— CDAKORTE (@CDAKORTE) June 2, 2023

I don't think he actually wants to run.— Ryan DeFreitas 83 (@RyanRyan831) June 2, 2023

It’s come to this: boingboing.net. Not desperate at all.

At least he is faithful to her.

I think the point was that his wife was speaking on HIS behalf, for HIS campaign, and he couldn’t even bother to act interested or grateful. That isn’t exactly the kind of understanding that ‘makes friends and influences people’.

Could be a case of “I want to be FLOTUS” instead of “I want to be POTUS”.

I remember watching Gerald McBoing Boing cartoons, when I was little.

The Trump cult is scraping the bottom of their large barrel.

His wife has more presence at the podium than he does... It’s not remotely surprising that the more he is seen the lower he is trending.

See, that’s the problem with desantis supporters/likely nevertrumpers here....

They can’t defend the message, so they try to attack the messenger, in this case, this site that carried the video of casey.

It doesn’t matter if ron was like a statue, or anything like that, the desantis supporters have to distract from how bad it actually was.....

As hit pieces go, this was unusually clumsy and amateurish.

Won't bother RDS.

He learned, as did all us Vets, to handle graceless and inept insults early in basic training.

What do you expect from “boingboing.net.?” Even though Trump is leading by 200%, Trump cultists grasp at every straw to bash DeSantis. You’d be better served if you held your fire until 2024, or post an article from something other than boingboing.net.!SMDH

How does this supposed DeSantis “error” rate versus the other guy having sex with a pornstar while his wife was expecting? LOL I suppose you know the old saying about glass houses and throwing rocks.

Isn’t it an ongoing shame that true objective journalism is dead? They can’t fit any more loaded, biased, personal opinion words into a paragraph than this. Not saying I am for or against the candidate or his actions.

But the 1950s Pravda was more objective and fair. Up to the point of making critical comments by leaders disappear along with their very presence in group photos. Now they’d photoshop and do fake news.

Looking at it again, it seems kind of weird that even SHE didn’t crack a smile even while trying to make funny comments.

This is going to be a very strange and noncharismatic campaign on their part...

It’s as if neither of them really want this enough to put in the proper effort.

Another video making mountains out of mole hills. This is all getting ridiculous.

I see a Far Side cartoon, and you’re the subject of it.
