But Dean fears DeSantis because while he is just as bad, just as deadly (or worse as you say), the media will never play him that way.
Yes De Santis appeals to unreconstructed extremists like Glennfs, which tells us all we need to know about both people.

Look, the unfortunate issue seems to be that, look, we in FL have our Florida Men, and it's mostly Men, and they love De Stupid.

FL and its 29 EV's would be a lock for him. Dunno, the idiots have overtaken the place, they seem to be the ruling tribe of those savage Barbarian golf-cart-riding Villages full of angry white elders in Orlando, I sometimes think deSantis could ban Disneyworld or illegalize orange juice and he'd still have a lock on the state.

Hard to believe, but the state did go in 2008 & 2012 for Obama. Who knows. The purple seems to be losing its bluish hue. But at least potentially some other nominee might not have a lock. Trump cleverly won the Venezuelans and Cubans with bullshit down here in 2020. Helped him still carry the state, damn him. The weird thing is TRUMP WON in 2020 and yet DeStupid still feels we need "Election Police" cuz I guess his victory margin was stolen from him? Who the F knows, but that's why I call him De Stupid.

There's no doubt about it - Trump and him already seem to see each other as adversaries for the 2024 nomination although IMHO it's increasingly looking like Trump is only pretending to be running in 2024 to grift for money, but who knows - they've been trading sly jabs for a while.

In 2019 he had 46pct approval among Democrats.
I saw another article which said his polling numbers are currently st 55pct with Criss in second at 33pct.
It appears he is doing a fine job as governor. At least according to the majority of your fellow Floridians

That fell 14 points by 2021.

https://floridapolitics.com/archives/45 ... ases-soar/

He lost ground among Republicans, Democrats and independent voters.

That article even goes into the reason why.

[quoting]
Changes among Democrats and Republicans moved predictably. More than three-quarters of Democrats now disapprove of DeSantis, while a 4-percentage-point approval drop among Republicans still afforded him an 83% thumbs-up ranking.

The most marked change came among independents, 50% of whom approved of his work in late June to early July compared to 38% who did not. Of those polled Aug. 21-30, however, just 40% said he was doing a satisfactory job. Fifty-one percent frowned upon his service.
[end]

This is a good article on his 2022 polling, and how it breaks down with whom. Admittedly, he is back up at 54% approval overall.
https://floridapolitics.com/archives/50 ... gislature/

Since you quoted Dem approval, so will I; as of that 2022 poll, it was at 21 percent.

You might not want to look at the numbers for the Rethuglican-dominated legislature.

You might not want to look at the numbers for the Rethuglican-dominated legislature.
Also:
Black respondents had the highest disapproval rating of the Legislature at 47%, with only 21% of Black respondents approving, and 32% unsure.

The pushback on the Legislature could be a result of recent controversial legislation pushed by GOP-legislative leaders.

A recent poll from the University of North Florida found 49% of respondents oppose HB 1557, a piece of legislation dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay” bill. Another 40% support it, either somewhat or strongly.

Republicans frame the bill (HB 1557), sponsored by Republican Rep. Joe Harding, and a similar Senate version (SB 1834), as a parental rights issue. It would stop teachers from encouraging discussions about these issues “in a way that is age or developmentally inappropriate.” The bills were passing through committees with party-line approvals as the PORL poll was taken, and it has since cleared the House.

Among Republicans, 44% strongly approve of the legislation, compared to 19% of Democrats. When considering responses among the different races/ethnicities, Whites and Hispanics were similarly strongly in favor of the legislation (32%). Among those who identified as Black, just 26% felt that way.

Congratulations, you are being manipulated by Amway, and the country's worst DOE Secretary in history.

Betsy DeVos is back — and her family is flooding Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis with cash - Salon
Donald Trump's former education secretary is a big fan of DeSantis' push to restrict public school curricula

than $280,000 to back Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' re-election effort amid his crackdown on discussions of race and sexual orientation in schools.

DeVos, who served four years as former President Donald Trump's education chief, personally contributed $5,500 to a super PAC backing DeSantis' re-election bid last month, according to state campaign finance records. Her husband, Dick DeVos, the former chief executive of Amway, contributed more than $80,000 to the Friends of Ron DeSantis super PAC last year. Their son, Rick DeVos, contributed $2,500 directly to DeSantis' campaign, as did their grandson Dalton DeVos and niece Olivia DeVos. Dick DeVos' brother Daniel and his wife Pamela also kicked in more than $70,000 to the Friends of DeSantis super PAC and his other brother Douglas also contributed more than $60,000. Dick DeVos' sister Suzanne Cheryl DeVos added another $50,000.

The DeVos family, which also owns the NBA's Orlando Magic, donated more than $200,000 to the Friends of Ron DeSantis PAC during the Florida governor's 2018 campaign. The Michigan-based DeVos clan, with their extensive conservative connections, have showered far-right Republicans with campaign cash for years, contributing more than $82 million to political causes since 1999, according to an analysis by the Michigan Campaign Finance Network, though some estimates put that number at closer to $200 million.

It would be fascinating to have a referendum on this in the USA, even just the first question. I don’t think our result would be as good as Hungary’s, but it would be a vast majority “no.”

@visegrad24

Apart from the election, Hungary also held a referendum today on whether or not to ban sexually explicit media in sex-ed and sex-reassignment information targeting school children.

Voter turnout was 67% and between 92-96% of people voted no on the referendum questions.

Yes the main canard is that non-cishetero people are a threat to children and families. They've been making this claim for centuries, when it's their communities that are proud existential threats to children. Especially LGBTQ children, and their families.

The liberal response used to be that ohh, it's just a phase...which was the improvement over being sent to shock treatment.

These measures are very actively trying to move the country back towards punitive action by the government for social nonconformity. They're doing this by drudging up old Briggs Initiative and Lavender Scare strategies.

The good thing about that: both of those were fails because people punched back when punched.

Yes it's tied in with Jan. 6, and the QAnon movement which has taken over their churches. You made a really good observation that their penchant for seeing subliminal this and that in every single thing cropped up during the backward masking moral panic. But of course, even that has roots in commiebaiting and other racist, antisemitic WN conspiracy theories going back centuries.

Reminds me of this from The Citizen:

Hollywood's Deep Seated Hatred for the White Race - White Citizen's Council newsletter, 1972

Greene, Boebert, De Santis, and a bunch of other conservative whites like glennfs were raised on this propaganda, and this is how it's playing out in today's politics.

Orban initially got these peoples' attention with Hungary's anti-"gender ideology" and anti-LGBTQ policies of the 2010s. De Santis's anti-LGBTQ laws mirror Russia's "gay propaganda" law of 2013.

There's a reason karen is the most vociferous advocate of this type of state violence around sexuality and gender. Incredibly, these conservative white women also the first to appropriate the rhetoric of liberal feminism to trash all of Islam. :problem:

Does it have anything to do with you guys's slavedriver history?

DeSantis draws congressional map that would dramatically expand GOP’s edge in Florida - NBC News
The proposed map would carve up a largely Black district and eliminate Democratic gains made on a national level during the redistricting process.

The map — which would carve up a Black-held district — was released Wednesday afternoon, just days after state legislators said they would defer to DeSantis, a Republican, on the new congressional boundaries. The Republican-controlled Legislature drew maps that would have created less of a GOP advantage, but DeSantis vetoed them last month.

DeSantis' map would create 20 Republican seats and eight Democratic ones based on 2020 electoral data, according to Matthew Isbell, a leading Florida-based Democratic data consultant who analyzed the maps Wednesday evening. Florida’s congressional delegation consists of 16 Republicans and 11 Democrats in the House. The state was apportioned an additional House seat after the 2020 census.

“It’s so blatantly partisan,” Isbell said. “The only way you can create a 20-and-8 map ... was to basically say, ‘Screw Black representation.’”
Conservative whites and your antidemocracy laws have a centuries-long history of imposing taxation without representation on African Americans.

So, how long until you guys start torching whole parts of town again, just because somebody tried to register without asking, first?

I'd love to see you dirty bigots try it.

glenn, like most conservatives, have Daddy Issues. That is, they have authoritarian characteristics and look to a strong person (Father figure) who is perceived as strong much the same way a child looks to their father for protection. Their problem is they're incapable of realizing they're slowly and willingly giving up the freedoms they claim for the protection of their strong Daddy leader. The best comparison is frog in a pot of cold water on the stove. Increase the heat slowly and the frog will stay in the pot and slowly cook themself to death.

Daddy beat the sh#t out of them, so instead of having some ethics and saying "it stops with me," they rationalize running roughshod over everyone else who crosses their path.

Yeah, while trying to take the rest of us with them.

It really f's with these miserable elitists’ whole identity when others dismantle their sh#tty laws. They'd rather self-immolate than acknowledge what they already know to be true about their supposed superiority.

You might be interested to know that for the past couple days, Christina Pushaw (@ChristinaPushaw), the neonazi Sunday School teacher who is Ron DeSantis's spokesperson, has focused all her Twitter time on defending an account called @libsoftiktok. This is a far-right, Project Veritas-type of account that goes on TikTok and purports to expose what Pushaw labels "left-wing degenerates" and "degenerate progressives."

...while your party is packed to the gills with human traffickers, sexual batterers, rape apologists, and guys like you who think men work harder than women.

The goal of this account is to peddle the LGBTQ predator narrative.

Taylor Lorenz at WP did a story on the woman behind the account. In the past two days since the article, every far-right American fascist from Jack Posobiec to J.D. Vance to Glenn Greenwald has joined in defending this person and trying to discredit Lorenz. Last night, the @libsoftiktok person showed up on Tucker Carlson, who so graciously took out a moment from http://radiofreeliberal.com/viewtopic.php?p=21959#p21959his weird Ernst Röhm testosterone testicle-tanning videos to interview her. :?

So, as ever, the Resident Confederate Flag Voter is in great company.

Sigh. I mean, we all know Tucker has lost his mind, but ...

Tucker Calls Reporter Who Unmasked ‘Libs of TikTok’ Creator a German Stooge
https://www.thedailybeast.com/tucker-ca ... man-stooge

Tucker Carlson on Tuesday night wondered aloud why Taylor Lorenz, the author of a Washington Post story earlier in the day on the popular Twitter account “Libs of TikTok,” isn’t registered as a foreign agent. :roll:

In the piece, the reporter makes note of findings from software developer Travis Brown that helped her reveal the right-wing account’s creator, Brooklyn-based real-estate agent Chaya Raichik. Specifically, Brown uncovered deleted tweets from the account, including those in which Raichik claimed she attended the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. Brown, Lorenz notes, receives support from the German-based Prototype Fund. The fund, according to its website, “supports ideas in civic tech, data literacy, data security and software infrastructure” with money from Germany’s Federal Ministry of Education and Research.

That funding, Carlson claimed, proves that “what happened to the woman who runs Libs of TikTok—her life being destroyed—was not the work of Taylor Lorenz... it was a foreign intelligence operation designed to silence and intimidate an American citizen.” :roll:

[snip][end]

First off, though I understand the need for anonymity, :D , the thing is, Raichik was increasingly making nasty and unfounded allegations about people on TikTok being so-called predators and groomers while hiding behind hers. That to me isn't "doxxing". What Lorenz did is called reporting. And I guess in Tuckums-Land once getting a grant from a foreign foundation makes you a foreign agent? :roll:

Why am I not surprised the man from warped horseshoe-land, Glenn Greenwald, is in on this pile on? I thought a gay guy might get why it's not a good idea to accuse gays and others on TikTok of being pedos, and the source of such attacks should be revealed, but ...

However you are correct that I would vote for De Santis in a heartbeat and he would be a major improvement over our current president.

This is a far-right, Project Veritas-type of account that goes on TikTok and purports to expose what Pushaw labels "left-wing degenerates" and "degenerate progressives."

...while your party is packed to the gills with human traffickers, sexual batterers, rape apologists, and guys like you who think men work harder than women.

The goal of this account is to peddle the LGBTQ predator narrative.

Taylor Lorenz at WP did a story on the woman behind the account. In the past two days since the article, every far-right American fascist from Jack Posobiec to J.D. Vance to Glenn Greenwald has joined in defending this person and trying to discredit Lorenz. Last night, the @libsoftiktok person showed up on Tucker Carlson, who so graciously took out a moment from http://radiofreeliberal.com/viewtopic.php?p=21959#p21959his weird Ernst Röhm testosterone testicle-tanning videos to interview her. :?

So, as ever, the Resident Confederate Flag Voter is in great company.
Desantis also regulates how businesses are allowed to operate and attempts to punish anyone or any business that speaks out against him. DeSantis is identical if not worse than Trump. He’s a mobbed up authoritarian. He’s proof that conservatives don’t stand for what they once claimed was conservatism. Anyone who supports him is obviously lying when they say they didn’t vote for Trump.

Huh. Not surprised. Including that this involves Joe Rogan.

The Twitter activist behind the far-right ‘Libs of TikTok’ is an Orthodox Jew. Does that matter?

Chaya Raichik says she’s responsible for getting teachers who discuss gay and transgender issues in the classroom, whom she calls “evil,” fired. She helped pioneer the term “grooming” to describe teaching about sexuality. Her Twitter account has hundreds of thousands of followers, and she has influential fans, including the spokeswoman for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and podcaster Joe Rogan.

Raichik is a prominent name associated with Orthodox Jews in South California, where Rabbi Shmuel Dovid Raichik was an early emissary of the Chabad movement and where his son Shimon was a top leader until his death last year.

It also is renewing conversation about how deeply some members of the Orthodox community are embedded in the American far right. Raichik, in previous incarnations on Twitter, has embraced former President Donald Trump’s lies about the results of the 2020 presidential election. She claimed to be present during the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol staged by Trump’s supporters.

In the runup to the 2020 election, Orthodox Trump supporters rallied in the streets for him in Brooklyn and demonstrated against the pandemic restrictions he mocked; the son of a prominent Brooklyn judge who led a national Orthodox synagogue group was present among the rioters, while some Orthodox publications blamed leftists for the siege or downplayed the gravity of the Capitol mob’s actions.

[snip]

Her fiercest focus, however, has been on the LGBTQ community. The Libs of TikTok account searches for and solicits from its followers videos in which adults — often teachers — share their thoughts on explaining sexuality to children. (Such videos often proliferate on TikTok.)

The tweets are often amplified in the right-wing media ecosystem, especially on Fox News, and the account reports when teachers are fired as a result. “Any teacher who utters the words ‘I came out to my students’ should be fired on the spot,” a now-deleted tweet said in December.

[snip]

One of the Twitter feed’s most devoted followers, Christina Pushaw, the spokeswoman for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, replied with a “You goin’ to jail” meme, and Raichik replied, “If only.”

Media Matters, a liberal media watchdog, reviewed dozens of engagements online between Pushaw and Libs of TikTok , and concluded that it was the Twitter feed that influenced Pushaw to describe a new state law banning discussion of sexuality in grades K-3 as targeting “groomers” — likening the law’s opponents to sexual predators. Pushaw’s use of the term has become commonplace among conservatives.
