He addresses and deflects his role at GITMO in the interview. I'm not saying he's not evil, just thought he was engaging and not boring.

I'll have to take your word for it, I can't imagine listening to a Piers Morgan podcast. Watching DeSantis pretend to interact with the public is hilarious. It's like bad AI programming a robot to act human. It fails to leave the uncanny valley. Maybe the programmers will have the DeSantis android acting human in another 5-10 years, but the technology just isn't there yet.

I'd rather listen to two babies crying than Piers Morgan and DeSantis. I know it's a stupid thing to base a vote on, but DeSantis has the worst voice of any Presidential candidate I can remember. He comes across as a whiny pussy, which I can't imagine Trump voters respecting. Which is ironic, because Trump is the ultimate whiny pussy, but he somehow fooled his cult into thinking he is a tough guy.

I'm sure you know way more about this than I do. I'm curious why the GOP would not want Wilson today. He was racist, he invaded Mexico, and he got the US in a war on the same side as Russia. (For a few months anyway.)

I assumed DeSantis was a lock until I heard him try to speak. He's got the charisma of a cardboard cutout.

Some people on Twitter wring their hands and clutch their pearls over Kennedy jr. Possibly running a third party campaign, thinking he will take votes from Biden. But, I’m of the mind that he’d be more likely to take votes from the Republican candidate.

I’m more worried about some Manchinian Candidate from No Labels than Kennedy.
And his one problem is he didn’t go to Russia that night because he had extracurricular activities, and they froze to death.

So if he is claiming COVID was genetically targeted to spare Jews and Chinese people, they horribly fucked up on the Chinese portion.

He has 'no rizz' and is easily unliked by the masses.

Trump is the same guy, dumber, but is interesting to people because he's been a household name since the 80s...and that's it.

That's it. That's the Republicunt party.

I’m still trying to figure out if DeSantis is really this stupid, or if he thinks he needs to out Trump Trump. I always assumed he was smart, but catering to Trump’s base, now I’m starting to think he really is as dumb as he acts and believes the horrible shit he pushes. You can’t beat Trump by imitating him, unless DeSantis is counting on Trump going to prison and he takes the mantle.

I have to think it's the latter, although I'm a get less certain of that by the day. I think he started out by trying to outTrump Trump, but then started getting high on his own supply.

If that's the case, if he knows this is cruel and is doing it for power reasons, that to me is worse, as I've said multiple times before. A person who says or does racist shit because they don't know any better or that's how they've been ingrained isn't as bad as someone saying or doing racist shit that they barely or don't believe simply to get votes.

The thing that's going on in politics on the right is that once Trump won in 2016, shocking all of the pundits and pollsters, these folks don't believe the numbers anymore. Add that to the whack-a-doodle echo chamber there in, where thousands of ppl will turn up at a rally you throw out dog whistle after dog whistle to rapturous applause.

He may not be dumb, but the notion that a racist, anti-LGBTQ+, hateful asshole is going to win a national election is very very stupid. I know I'm a broken record, but these folks have "lost" three national election cycles in a row. They are not listening to the voters, they are just listening to the echo chamber.

He can fuck FL up to hell, he's not going to have that chance on a national scale.

People are pissed and they are going to vote.

And, to finish off this mini rant... Who really cares about this fuck stick? His polling numbers are fucking horrible. This is a lot about the media wanting ANOTHER bogeyman other than Trump to fixate on. Wake me up when this guy polls over 25 percent for fuck's sake.

DeSantis is stupid for entering the race and entering it this early. Now he's already out of money and it's not even 2024. Polling at < 5%.

Newsom is smart, he's waiting for the shitstorm to pass and will run in an open 2028 election.

2028 Newsom vs DeSantis would have been interesting, polar opposites. But DeSantis has blown it.
