A video which features Ron DeSantis that includes a symbol often associated with neo-Nazi groups has been met with outrage after it was allegedly retweeted by his campaign team.

    Why is there even outrage at this point? It’s not a secret these people are Nazis. They’ve barely hidden it. Thankfully, DeSantis has no chance at all.

        I was worried about DeSantis at first, but he’s a value brand Trump. He doesn’t get people riled up like Trump does. I’m still worried about Trump though. I drink think he could win again but I didn’t think he’d win in 2016

          DeSantis doesn’t get the right riled up, but he is effective in ruining everything intentionally like McConnell. He won’t get the Republicsn nomination till Trump dies, but he will probably be the successor.

            He’s effective at ruining everything in Florida, where he has Reublican supermajorities in the legislature to back him up. I’m not convinced he’s actually an effective politician like McConnell.

          I don’t think the corporate sponsors of the gop will allow DeSantis. Trump was VERY good for business, DeSantis has shown that he is a threat and can’t play nice.

          There’s fortunately a lot more opposition to Trump this time around. Hopefully enough to keep him out of office.

        DeSantis is going against Trump. It’s very clear who Republicans like more.

        EDIT: So sorry, I have no idea what happened.

      They’re trying to present it as if it was shocking, to “subtley” deny what they are.

      It all falls into their mindset of thinking most people secretly agree with them. They’re idiots who think it is some clever ruse to rally support.
