Ron DeSantis' Awkward Wedding Entrance Sparks Memes, Jokes
Newsweek ^ | Aug 7, 2023 | Giulia Carbonaro

Posted on 08/07/2023 3:20:21 PM PDT by backpacker_c

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was mocked online for his "awkward" entrance with his wife, Casey DeSantis at the wedding of Iowa Republican Taylor Collins in Des Moines on Saturday night, with social media users accusing him of stealing attention from the bride and groom.

Videos of the event shared online show the Florida governor entering the wedding reception, held at the Beaux-Arts-style building, with his wife and walking straight into the room after the newlywed couple. Collins and his bride can be seen stepping to the side and clapping for the Republican governor as the audience in attendance cheers. DeSantis stops for a few seconds to wave around, without clapping himself.

Collins, who was elected to Iowa's state House of Representatives last year and took office in January 2023, has endorsed DeSantis for 2024. The Florida governor's attendance at his wedding was reportedly unexpected for Collins, as DeSantis was invited by his wife, Savannah Collins, according to The New York Times.

ron and casey were immediately following the wedding couple into the event, and reporting says the audience gave the desantis' a standing ovation....

Social media criticized desantis for imitating Trump's appearance at a wedding that was at Bendminster, and that the desantis' were upstaging the bride and groom.

At this point, desantis probably thinks any attention he gets is good for his campaign considering his events are attended by only a couple of dozen people.

Ron is ugly but his wife is a beauty. Unfortunately he is running for President.

Yeah, let’s keep mocking and tearing down one of the good guys. Do you ever see Democrats stomp on and shoot any of their own - ever? I don’t care if you support Trump and would never vote for DeSantis in a primary, he’s one of our warriors.

Sheesh. Just stop.

Totally Agree.

Many of comments here these days are indistinguishable from those of fake news journos. They’re all on Team Trump until July 18, 2024.

Do you like someone to lie to you, with no remorse?

Do you like people to manipulate you?

Do you like people who fraudulently launders campaign contributions and flaunts FEC regulations, because he considers they don’t apply to him?

Do you support swampy GOPe rinos and the uniparty?

If you support desanctimonious, you’re okay with the above.

Poppycock. You are more obsessed with your Governor DeSantis goblins than you are the damage Biden and his administration are doing every day. You are more concerned about Governor DeSantis than the weaponized DOJ going after DJT.

I want to know how much you are being paid to astroturf your daily doses of anti-DeSantis tripe.

He’s not getting paid, he just likes the 45th President more than the absentee governor of Florida.

Many Trump supporters including myself, don’t need payouts, we’re willing to campaign and work for Trump for free.

It’s because of the lies, mis-representations, and attacks on Trump and his supporters here by you, and other desantis supporters/nevertrumpers,

that I decided to push back and started posting to show what a fake, corrupt, swamp rino and big money supported sham desantis really is.

And an awful lot folks in Florida are done with him. He has to win the presidency or his political future is toast so he will try every avenue to do that. Jeanette Nunez is doing a good job in his absence here.

How much are you paid for your daily, and often repetitive astroturfing threads against Governor DeSantis?

Careful there. If you pro Trump people keep focusing on RDS’s every move, you might just end up liking him as much as everyone else flocking to Florida. Also, all of the name calling and playground ridicule in the world isn’t going to make RDS drop out. Trump will have to actually work for donor money, and insults won’t get him a dime.

Focus on desantis? And liking him?

You mean, like what the $35-40 million the desantis campaign and neverbackdown superpac has spent so far has gotten desantis?

Like the huge crowd at his tama event?

Was he imitating, upstaging, or both?
