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.

So yes, she probably repeats the same speech day after day, and so does he repeat the same speech day after day. But your “job”, as the political spouse, is to pretend each time that that speech is fresh and new and worthy of your attention and appropriate response.

I suspect he was just thinking about other things, and maybe you can make the case that he is more genuine for not putting on a fake, supportive show, but he still looks like a schmuck, and a bad husband. Think of how many times SHE will respond supportively to HIS speeches.

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

That was my first thought when I saw boing boing as well.

I don’t think Trump realized what he was up against the first time, but he sure as hell does now. So I think he deserves a second crack at things especially since he (and RFK Jr) are the only anti-establishment candidates running and I don’t see any other choice. When Ron breaks rank with his neocon puppet masters and calls for immediate negotiations to end the war in Ukraine maybe I’ll take a second look at him. Until then forget about it.

Boingboing is decidedly left-wing. And it’s being trotted out here by those threatened by the fact that DeSantis dared to throw his hat into the ring.


Sounds like you need a whaaaaambulance.

Where were your 😭😢😭sanctimonious tears when DeSoros fans have posted left wing Trump bashing articles??

Spare the forum, with your teeth gnashing.

So why not just post the video, if you really believe that it makes DeSantis look bad? Why does it take some editorial from a left-wing site desperately trying to convince people that it makes DeSantis looks bad?

Nah, I'm fine here, Jane - just pointing out reality and facts to some hysterical types getting very worked up over an article from a left-wing site.

I’m curious if it is.

IF it is…then Rob looks like he’s seizing, or, maybe ate the salmon, for lunch.

I’d like to see the link to actual vid.

Stop stirring up the Ronbots.

SO FUNNY.

Ronbots are criticizing you for posting from a “left-wing” site when there is a poster who posts two or three stories a day from Microsoft Network to trash Trump.

boing boing is NOT Elite Stream Media, it is Fringe Stream Media.

MSN is the about as left-wing as it gets for REAL Elite Stream media.

>> Oh, now you warn/whine about The Lincoln Project??

>> Where were you when they’ve been bashing Pres Trump daily, for years???

Uh, posting about how they were a bunch of pedophiles? Look, I STRONGLY supported Cruz in the 2016 primaries, but when Trump won, I got to work.

MAGA is fighting the Swamp and its tributaries..

Bush,Dole,Bush,McCain,Romney should have tried harder to support Trump and MAGA.
They actually convinced many that the Swamp is Uniparty and bipartisan..

B.S. - Desantis supporters post things all the time from media sites that are decidedly anti-Trump all the time.

The Trump supporters don’t blow off the content based on the site, they defend the content or attack it if it was edited or in accurrate...

Unlike you desantis supporters that say, for example, everything on thegatewaypundit, theconservativetreehouse and nationalfile can’t be trusted.

Even when they are linking or repeating other content that’s being published elsewhere.

You all just don’t like the real desantis being shown to the public.
