>>DeSantis has stood down the teacher’s unions, major corporations, lefty DAs, and others.
More slogans without specifics. I’ve responded already to your “He stood down Disney” claim. As far as standing down teacher’s unions, lefty DAs and others, I’d have to know what you’re referring to before I can respond.
>>DeSantis beat them all.
I’ve already responded to that. Who has DeSantis faced? Has he taken on Pelosi, Schumer, or Merrick Garland? Has he taken on Juan Merchan, or Jack Smith? No.
>>”You’re the one making a charge (that DeSantis is trying to derail MAGA.) The burden of proof is on you.
I’ve made my case often around here. I even did so in my initial post, and when you respond with “That’s simply false”, then the burden of proof is on you. I cited how DeSantis has been unwilling to acknowledge that outcome altering election fraud took place in 2020. Now if you share his position, that’s a whole different discussion, but if you agree that the election was stolen then you need to explain how somebody who’s being true to the MAGA agenda could hold that position.
>>”If DeSantis were dealing with Chuck and Nancy, he’d have plenty of achievement. He has proven his mettle.”
Now you’re back to the slogans again without any attempt to argue your case. I’ve pointed out to you that DeSantis has been dealing with a Republican super-majority, so your assertion on how he would have plenty of achievement against Chuck and Nancy isn’t based on anything DeSantis has faced in the past. And if you think success with a Republican super-majority legislature automatically translates to success against the Democrats in Washington, then I can only repeat that you’re very naive for thinking so.
>>Governor DeSantis has a proven record, which you choose to dismiss.
I don’t dismiss his record as Governor. I point out that his record as governor of a super-majority red state, with a Republican controlled state supreme court is a poor indicator of success or failure on the national level. If you can’t grasp the substantial differences between the two offices then that’s the crux of the problem.
Terrific, reasoned response. Bravo.
Aside from all the fighting over my governor regarding his record and Trump, remains the issue of trust. I no longer trust him. And regaining trust once lost is almost impossible. That’s the situation he finds himself in. Its why the PR push and the Conservative legislation getting loads of PR.
Ron DeSantiss knows that with Floridians like myself, the pressure is on to shore up his conservative bonefides to win us back for 28. The posters here on FR can say whatever they want to me or rip my opinions to shreds. I live here, and in my part of the state this is a pretty accurate representation of opinion. That stated I do need to say i’m in a very red county of Florida, very MAGA.
You have not responded to my statement on standing down Disney. The Florida government, which he leads, took Disney’s special privileges (at his urging.) They set up their own board to frustrate DeSantis, sued, and tried to undermine his actions. Disney lost to him on every front.
The teacher’s union dug in tooth and nail to stop him from taking sexualized books out of school libraries. He fought them and they’re doing it the governor’s way, not the union’s.
He fired at least two lefty DAs. The others don’t want to take him on.
He’s achieved significant policy wins for conservatives in the Free State of Florida. He could handle Chuck, Nancy, and Hakeem easily. He’s handled every enemy he’s faced. He’s proven his mettle.
You’re arguing that the guy who has a high batting average in AAA obviously can’t hit in the majors. Because you say so. (That’s exactly how the liberals argue.)
Your claim that “DeSantis is trying to derail MAGA” is simply an assertion on your part and not true. The same with your false assertion that he’s somehow tied to the Bush wing. You have offered NO evidence to support either (Hint: It’s not there.)
What’s your evidence that the 2020 election was stolen?
He has stood up to lefties like Garland. He has fired corrupt officials like Merchan.
More slogans without specifics.
You’re a damn joke, if not outright fraud. The poster gave you plenty of specifics, and the record is overflowing anyway, as any actual conservative would know. You just don’t like what DeSantis has done, period. It’s too conservative for you. You like defending gays and other BS that Trump supports.
