Ron DeSantis claps back after MSNBC dubs wife Casey ‘America’s Karen’
NY Post ^ | 07/10/2023 | Ryan King

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis defended his wife, Casey, Monday after left-wing commentators tastelessly dubbed her “America’s Karen” over the weekend.

“My wife is an incredibly strong first lady of Florida, a fantastic mother and a great wife, and that threatens the left,” DeSantis, 44, told Fox Business Network’s “Varney & Co.”

Over the weekend, MSNBC analyst David Jolly, a former Republican congressman from Florida, hurled the “Karen” epithet at the breast cancer survivor and mom of three during a segment on the channel’s “Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”

“Casey DeSantis is a fairly compelling political figure in Florida, and now nationally. For many, she’s the brighter side to Florida’s angry governor. For others, she’s become America’s Karen,” Jolly said during the segment, drawing chuckles from his fellow panelists.

A garbage channel filled with garbage “stories” and, for the most part, garbage people.

That’s a hoot - the leftists who are always telling the rest of us how we must live accusing Mrs. DeSantis of being a Karen.

Spare me.

DeSantis claps back...

Creative way to infer the image of Jeb.

Calling someone a "Karen" is racist.

I see MSNBC is still perving around in the gutter.

I wouldn’t have said she was a Karen. Definitely a self-absorbed diva, but not a Karen. She’s the one at a gathering that you’re sitting there smiling, but on the inside you’re thinking, “Oh for crying out loud, please stop talking.”

Now, I only am making this assessment by the clip I saw of her yammering on and on and on about her children wreaking havoc in the gov mansion, so it may not be fair. She sure did sound like a narcissistic valley girl. Zero humility - all show.

So now David Jolly is hurling insults at others?

I’m shaking my head side to side.

Moreover, Jill/ Casey is fair game for criticism given that she has become Ron’s primary surrogate. She enjoys speaking about her children (all of whom are under five I think) while she campaigns across the USA and leaves them with nannies.

Yet you pick on Kari Lake. How sad. I don’t think RDS’s wife is a Karen. I also do not think she is authentic. But she does look good.

Please post a video of yourself saying something - anything - so we can look at you and comment.

At least then you can say you have just as much courage as Casey DeSantis. She puts herself on the line every day fighting for what she and her husband believe.

And she doesn't do it anonymously the way you and I do.

I promise you that when I run for public office, I will be forthcoming with videos, opinions, pics, everything needed for others to come to decisions about me. I will be able to accept criticism (whether I like it or not) and perhaps learn from it.

As it stands at the moment, I’m not running for office, will not be taking a public salary, will not live in a taxpayer provided home, and my opinions make little difference. I am still free to express them (as is everyone else) and you’re still free to ignore them (as is everyone else).

“She puts herself on the line every day fighting for what she and her husband believe”- hilarity. What do they believe in save their own petty hubris? Oh, I forgot, the “war on woke”. LMAO.

“As it stands at the moment, I’m not running for office, will not be taking a public salary . . .”

That is an interesting comment. What does it mean in relation to a possible First Lady of the United States?

Perhaps you are thinking about how things work in another country.

Please post a video of yourself telling us what you believe in so we can judge whether or not we should laugh at you. I don’t want to start laughing - not polite - until I know more.

The maggot mainstream “media” has no ethics at all. When did Americans give those azhos the go ahead to start attacking politicians’ spouses and families? The “Media Meatheads” are nothing but a bunch of lowlife maggots.
