DeSantis Trending Again

Modern cons would shoot a nail gun through their foot if they thought that meant "Owning the Libs".
That's a good idea for a psy-op. Then people become suspicious of anyone limping around and you wind up with people in public going "no, I play competitive rec basketball at 40 and hurt myself, I'm not a Proud Boy"
 
Unless of course you feel like all people being able to voice there point of view without repercussion in state funded universities is a good thing for flordians...



Explain to me how something that is designed to make more people comfortable voicing thier opinion is "facist".

Desantis has no chance of winning the nomination. Even without Trump, the line of kooks with bigger names is too long. He will get quickly defined as unviable as everyone piles on. It's why candidates wait until the last second to announce their intentions.

Just about every piece of legislation DeSantis has signed in the past year is unconstitutional and currently being litigated in court, all at Florida taxpayer expense. But DeSantis has this figured out. With Trump supporters, it's not about results and what actually happens. It's about what they say, if what they say "owns the libs", and then if they've done some superficial action. Like sign obviously unconstitutional laws into existence knowing full well they will never actually make it to being implemented (which people would hate once it was actually enforced). But hey, it pisses off the libs so that's all that really matters.

I actually think he is a serious threat to win the GOP nomination, especially if Trump doesn't run. DeSantis is certainly the front runner for being "Trump's guy". If Trump endorses him I just don't see anyone else being able to beat him in primaries. There aren't enough sane Republicans left to matter.

Oh, and DeSantis is smarter than Trump and won't shoot himself in the foot on a daily basis so he is a far more formidable opponent than Trump was and every bit as dangerous. Democrats should be very worried about him.

Even assuming this is the intent — it’s not — I shouldn’t have to tell you my politics or tell you what I feel about the classroom environment in order to attend classes at a public university.

Compelled speech is generally unconstitutional speech.
 
Don’t know that much about it, can someone tell me something good about CRT? I have heard a lot of negatives about it but haven’t heard the positive side.

I honestly don't see Trump endorsing him. Trump will either run himself, and drive him into the ground, or will be behind bars, and not have the opportunity.

But even if he does endorse him, a Trump endorsement has been a liability. Trump endorsed candidates fared poorly in both 2018 and 2020.

It won't matter because you lack logical thinking and common sense. I mean seriously...you actually think DeSantis is making that college requirement so kids can feel safe expressing their beliefs. Because he shows repeatedly how caring he is. Riiiiigggghhhtttt.
I do think he is doing it to stop suppression of speech. Yes. Tom, I can show you many examples of being able to have a reasonable conversation on here with any not named Chis. Your attempt to backtrack by going after intelligence is weak. Let's try again: what are you concerns with it? Dont like the students having to do it? Dont like the teachers having to participate? Dont think the Gov should ever have any voter information? What's up?

DeSantis is Trump with the ability to form complete sentences and the ability to stay on point. He’s going to be a big deal in 2024.

I believe Ron to be an evil man. I think this isn't to make the students feel safer, but for his administration to gather personal belief information from students. Why does he want that? Why does he need it? There's a reason and it isn't because he cares about the college students. Remember, he doesn't really want most of them to be able to vote, because most aren't in his base.

Where we differ is I think he is doing this to try to grow his base through offering multiple points of view.

The fact that you don’t engage in debate and rather shame the poster? It is quite evident in this thread, so I don’t see where I am wrong
Lol. I generally don't engage in debate with people, like you, who have had a variety of things explained to them over and over and don't learn.

Please explain how requiring people to take surveys is making them more comfortable in expressing *their* opinion.
 
Just going to leave this without comment

What is surprising in that poll is DeSantis isn't doubling up his opponents given the part of the state where it was taken.

The Listener Group is based in Pensacola. The firm in 2020 focused its polling efforts in the Panhandle, where it predicted most races surveyed accurately.

Agree with this....ironically DeSantis best chance is probably Trump behind bars.

My starting point is that nobody knows who he is on a national level which means he has no public image yet. And right now other people are starting to define that image which places that narrative beyond his control. That is a bad place to be, imo.

I could also easily see all the other Trumpers, who have patiently waited all these years for their chance, piling onto him and ending his run before it even starts. If I'm Rubio or Cruz or Graham or Christie or Jordan there is no way I lick Trump's boots for half a decade only to let a guy like DeSantis come in the last second and steal my place.

It isnt the requiring them to take surveys it is the next step of funding for 50/50 environment where a dem doesn't feel they can't speak because all of the professors are Rep and vice versa.
