The Sunshine State governor made a similar comment recently when he warned that Maine’s ruling disqualifying Trump ‘opens up Pandora’s box’
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has revealed that he’s “looking” into ways to block President Joe Biden from the 2024 primary ballot in Florida.
“This is just going to be a tit for tat and it’s just not gonna end well,” the GOP presidential candidate warned Friday alongside Rep. Chip Roy, R-TX, according to a video posted by CNN. “You could make a case — I’m actually looking at this in Florida now [if we] could we make a credible case” to block Biden from the ballot “because of the invasion of 8 million.”
But like…that’s the thing. They have to look for a credible case to remove their political opponents. In contrast, the reason to remove Trump is self-evident, even to Republicans.
Conservatives think any consequences they have is retaliation.
So they don’t see the difference in this.
It’s just the lack of empathy, if they do something illegal, they assume everyone else does it too so it’s fine. If they get in trouble, it’s obviously not fair because in their head they’re being singled out.
God can you imagine Biden saying, “it’s not persecution you dumb fuck, it’s consequences for your actions!”
Nope.
And that’s the problem. Biden would never say it because he thinks there’s still a bipartisan future.
Everything Republicans do is retaliation for things Trump has done to himself. There are 0 credible reasons to remove Biden from ANY state ballot, but they’ll try to find a way regardless.
Then they will be sued, and they will lose. Unlike the GOP, the Democrats have really good lawyers.
That’s because GOP lawyers are too busy advocating for the death penalty for homosexuals in Africa
What’s more, if they are going to remove Biden for failing to prevent illegal immigration (despite actually having significantly higher arrest and deportation numbers under Biden than Trump), then they should reasonable have to remove Trump as well… given, you know, the whole insurrection thing. To not do so would imply that the supposed failure of a president to sufficiently address one very complicated issue (even though he’s better than Trump on this issue by their own metrics) is worse than attempting to coerce officials into “finding” votes for him, conspiring to produce fraudulent electors, lying and defaming for months about supposed fraud that had no basis in fact, and, of course, inciting an insurrection on the capital building.
god this is going to be such a stupid year
No, it’s gonna be a stupid decade or even longer. And it’s already been going on for a while. Thats what you get when for years you ignore a dysfunctional education system and promote idiotism. It doesn’t vanish over night and finds its way into public discord. Then it’s years of not strong enough responses to totalitarian practices and you get another fascist italy or nazi germany.
Trump tried to overthrow the government and he is still allowed to run for president. Im just hoping the title of a history book chapter describing this will not be “causes for 3rd world war”, but I’m not optimistic.
Good ole fascism.
This is a play to delegitimize the courts. Fascists know that Trump deserves to be knocked off the ballot and that Biden does not. They don’t care. It serves them well to have their case laughed out of court so they can campaign off removing the deep state from the courts.
Man I wish there was a way to penetrate fascist propaganda.
My grandfather says that .308 does a good job penetrating fascist propaganda.
“This is just going to be a tit for tat and it’s just not gonna end well,”
I still can’t get over a political leader admitting to abusing the power of his office for personal spite, and not being removed from office
Sounds like giving comfort to an insurrectionist. We should remove him from office.
