Students from the University of Florida (Gators) showed up to protest against the installation of Nebraska Senator Ben Sasse as their university president.
According to the Tampa Bay Times, “the protesters made five demands. They wanted Sasse to decline the president’s job and the UF board of trustees to release the names — thus far withheld — of all 12 people they had interviewed for the post. They also demanded more transparency during the selection process and the repeal of a new Florida law that makes presidential searches at state colleges and universities largely secret.” (more)
Everyone in Florida knows Governor Ron DeSantis cleared the field for his friend Senator Ben Sasse. As noted by Politico: “Sasse’s sherpa through the university search process was Gov. Ron DeSantis’ chief of staff James Uthmeier, who was put in contact with Sasse several months ago after he quietly expressed interest in becoming UF president.“ (link)
Senator Sasse is a never Trumper reelected in 2020 and his term doesn’t expire until 2026. Sasse is expected to depart this year and the Nebraska governor will make an appointment to fill his senate seat.
…”Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts would then appoint a replacement for Sasse under state law, with the seat then up for a special election in 2024. One of the people familiar with Sasse’s plans said Ricketts himself is viewed as a potential appointee for the seat.”
Just Another Shrimp on the Barbie for WEF DeSantis..
I heard a note of cognitive dissonance in Steve Bannon’s voice today when listening a recent podcast on which he mentioned this appointment and said he didn’t like it.
I hope he’s reading here…for the full story…
the left hates republicans. period. even the conservatives who hate President Trump. goof ball liz cheney is getting a whole bunch of money from the never trumpers. the bush’s are bad. and hateful.
The bushCARTEL.
He most likely knows way more than we do.
Wrong. Your comment is unfounded because
follow the money and then get back to me !
Birds of a feather flock together !
As a UF alumnus who graduated with high honors, I protest vehemently against this selection. What were they thinking?
Yes, Ben is too liberal, and a never Trumper.
Sasse could be Paul Ryans brother .
or wife
His #bitch for sure.
Trump nicknaming GymRat fits his description.
Ryan’s sister in law just went to the supreme court. how about dat?
sister–are you a biologist?
The pedo lover?
Those two need to take a long walk off a short pier. Lying traitors both of them.
A two-face of the worst kind.
He is a changeling, Patience. Remembering how he ran on being a member of the Tea Party. And he was believed.
It didn’t take him long to shed his skin, as all snakes do. A liar, a coward, a shameless self promoter, a slimy poseur, a raging opportunist. All of that and more.
They’re all intelligence assets. Everyone involved except President Trump in this story is part of the same traitorous cabal acting in concert to present the lie that American citizens have any say at all in the selection of their rulers. All this scratch my back bullshit is them having fun at the public’s literal expense as they collect their tax funded salaries.
Interestingly, today on JJ Sefton’s Ace of Spades Morning Report, he hooked up to an article, which I did not read, on how the old Robert Redford movie Three Days of the Condor was just as relevant today as when it was made…ref your comment about intelligence agents.
And funnily enough I was this weekend thinking precisely of that one. Must revisit it. It was very chilling, and probably accurate.
Funny that. Kinzinger claimed to be a tea party Republican to get elected to Congress as well.
Rubio, Flake, Sassy, kinzy, eye patch, scum one and all.
Don’t forget Cassidy.
One word for him…loser. And a despicable one at that. I saw a picture of him with his poor financee, their engagement photo.
She was looking at him in that adoring way fiancees do. He, on the other hand was not gazing adoringly at her.
He was facing the camera with the smarmiest grin plastered on his mug. If any photo defined such a person as completely self absorbed and full of himself, that was it.
Hoping for her sake, she reconsiders.
Yes, Betsy. I do remember.
I listened to him at hearings and he taped a good game; like Trey Gowdy and Tim Scott etc.
Sass is a special kind of scum.
Grade A.
Arrrrh
Talked a good game
and Indiana has some pretty cold winters.
how high were your honors?
On the bright side. I hope he achieves precisely the same for UF, as what he did for America First…
Its a double edged sword, albeit a dull one.
Will be interesting to see if they release the names of the other applicants interviewed.
Appears to be a -It’s not what you know-but who you know deal.
It’s a big club.
and you ain’t in it; ok maybe you are but I sure ain’t…
Would guess Treepers are few and far between in the big club.
Being from Florida…I assure you, it is always the case.
The Good Ol’Boy Consortium is alive and well in the Gunshine State.
with the brain size of those getting out of college now a days, anyone could lead them.
I can just imagine the horse trading that was done behind closed doors for that job.

With respect…
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!!
Was just thinking “Follow the money.”
Good for the students!👍🏻👍🏻
I know a bunch of UF grads and dropouts. The parents of most grads in the last 20 years need to ask for their tuition monies back.
My daughter in law is a graduate. I’ve passed this on to her. Jobs for the (right) boys. A political whorehouse.
It’s disgusting, Bet.
My lip curled immediately I read it, and it hasn’t uncurled yet, CR.

I just heard of you the first time in SD’s thank you post. Are you new?
WeeWeed was here when I started reading CTH in 2013.
Chicago Politics.
See my post up thread….the Nebraska governor needs to be monitored….a friend of Sasse…or putting up the next candidate for his seat.
Its smelling a little swampy.
No Sasse in Florida.
color me dumb, but this doesn’t really clue me in on are they protesting because he’s too liberal or not liberal enough?
That’s really not a dumb question at all because the answer is likely that both statements are true.
Once again,
Sundance- pictures speak.
he’s a piece of crap rino.thune in south dakota needs to go too.
almost the entire GOP in the US Senate is RINOs….name just ONE strong America First Senator
So, no “almost” then.
We do not have ONE MAGA Senator, as yet.
Hopefully that will change, soon.
There’s only one in the senate…Rand Paul.
As a Texan I can tell you Canadian Ted and Cornyn the Imposter have the wool pulled over the state’s eyes. The whole lot needs to be rotated out. I can even see through everybody’s favorite Louisiana senator Kennedy. What does he do besides give the cringiest cliche southern analogies? Yeah he’s funny but what do these guys do for us? They’ve helped pass more of Joe Biden’s agenda than they ever did with Trump. If you’re waiting on the cavalry to come, you’ll soon find out you are the cavalry. Put your boots on and throw the bums out!
Never forget the ZERO senate recess appointments allowed for PDJT.
Just to be clear; Rand Paul had the authority to allow President Trump recess appointments during the entire time President Trump was in office, and Paul did the bidding of RINO Senate leadership and did NOTHING.
If that’s MAGA, I’m a monkey’s uncle.
Correction. Paul did not have that authority. He did have the power to force a vote every time they pulled those shenanigans. They ask for unanimous consent and nobody speaks up. Nobody speaking against means they all agreed. Or at least they didn’t want anything getting in the way of their getting out of town.
But it is much more difficult to actually get a recess sufficient to allow a President to make recess appointments.
Wrong. Any one Senator could have voted to recess and our President would have had his (one and only) opportunity to appoint his own MAGA cabinet. Paul could have been that one, history changing Senator.
Only ONE vote was needed to recess the senate. But Paul did not break stride with Mitch’s RINOs. Nope. Not one of them did.
And.. look where we are now.
I do believe that Jim in TN is correct as that is how I also read the Senate rules.
I get very angry every time I think about that. I questioned John Boozeman about it and he told me I just didn’t understand. I Understand Perfectly.
Never have, and never will. You hear me Rand Paul?
LOL
I’ve been disappointed in Kennedy too.
Like when he voted for mine, yours, our kids, our grandkids money to be sent to the Ukes..
Twice, I think.
Louisiana gal here. Kennedy was a democrat who unsuccessfully ran for Senate. He switched party to Republican……and here we are.
He is no better than cassidy, who is also a former unsuccessful democrat that switched parties.
Cassidy openly spits in our face and Kennedy stabs us while smiling at us.
I was a Cruz supporter until I found out his wife is on the Council of Foreign Relations. WEF, Globalist.
In the last year since I moved to Texas (from loser Jamie Raskin’s district in Maryland), I have become a volunteer for the county Republican Party, a delegate to the state Republican Convention (where Cornyn received a well deserved booing), and an election judge. I have had back and forth emails with both Cruz and Cornyn. I have supported Cruz who mostly votes correctly, but we have a serious disagreement on his votes to send money to the corrupt Ukrainians and escalate a conflict with a nuclear power (votes that are not smart to ANYONE with common sense). I’ve recognized for a long time that Cornyn is nothing but a tool for McConnell, along with Ms. Graham, Sasse, Murkowski, etc., etc., etc. He has to go, with another 16 or 17 of them (just look at the so called Republicans who voted for the latest pork laden CR). We’re gearing up for 2024 here and it will be very different next time. The Precinct Strategy is in action here now and we’ll lead the way for the other counties here in Texas.
Cornyn burnished his bona fides with The Chamber of Commerce. There lies his first loyalty.
(Nice to see you got here as fast as you could😉)
Crenshaw needs to go too.
I’m really tired of holding my nose in the voting booth for those two. I’ve told them both the same, Dan please pass along my disregards. Thanks!
Josh Hawley (Mo)
And don’t say Rand Paul. He is 100% in his own corner.
Rand destroyed Trumps attempt at healthcare reform in the first 6 months of Trumps administration.
If you say Rand Paul, well, nuts to you.
Cornyn in Texas needs to go too.
Amen, sister. A few more years…
Amen!!! And Cruz too!!
My only regret is that I have but one like to give.
Upvote for the chuckle.
He Just got re=elected. He has 4 more years
Thune and Dusty Johnson both are RINOS.
I don’t think it’s a question of “Who are the RINOs” but of who are NOT.
Any non-RINOs in the US Senate?? And of course, Dems don’t count.
Regardless, it’s going to be a campaign issue for the Uniparty-D candidate to use.
Against RDS? Naw, Christs job is to insure DeSantis wins, as part of the Uniparty strategy, to elevate DeSantis as the “Trump lite” alternative.
Find or invent a scandal and beat the other guy with it for a full election cycle. Seen that script before. It’s a distraction from more important things I think.
I expect more theater out of it going forward.
I dunno, Dutch. The Confabulation Contraptions might just be enough to put Oxycodone Tsunami Crist in the Gov’s Mansion.
Please God no.
I try not to excited about anything these days, M8, that way I am not let down when the obvious doesn’t work out.
They view him as too conservative. The chief complaint I heard was that they didn’t like his views on same sex marriage.
Ugh, even in Florida the pox prevails.
He isn’t Liberal enough for those students and he is a RINO. Even the Conservative values he pretends result in twisted conservatism in the bills he helps pass.
I could answer your question, but you need to learn to figure these things out for yourself (no disrespect intended). I will give you a hint, though. Sundance goes to the trouble of including embedded inks in his articles for good reason. Check them out…
Sasse is too unpredictable for Academia. He definitely can’t be trusted, even by fellow Trump haters.
It’s the (R) behind the name.
Not liberal enough. The protesting students are too stupid to see that, like their hated Fox News, he’s on their side while pretending to be on ours.
They don’t understand a perfect gift when they see it.
I’ll go along with that.
The students and faculty are protesting that he is not liberal enough (typical of just about every university these days). But what I’m thinking is if he is the most conservative candidate on the list then the rest of them must be some real stinkeroos.
Very good question! A grad ceremony speech in 2021 by current President Kent Fuch hit all the liberal propaganda. Critical race theory- check. Climate change- check. Women’s rights- check. Eating fake meat or no meat – check. It was nauseating.
UF is not conservative friendly AT ALL.
Yet “another brick in the Wall” between DeSantis and ANY run for POTUS.
Great Governor, fine,…we’ll see how “great” he appears, once he gets some real competition…
But NO, NEVER as POTUS.
Never say never Dutchman, never say never. The year is 2028, there are two candidates for POTUS. It’s a tight race, Ron DeSantis is the Republican candidate and AOC is the Democrat candidate.
Are you telling me you’d A) vote for AOC, B) sit it out and risk AOC as POTUS C) write in someone else which is the same as A and B?
Nobody knows what the future holds my friend.
It is our responsibility to see that does not happen in the primaries.
Every single student at that school should walk out the day little Ben takes the helm.
The leadership at that school must be as corrupt as little Ben to even consider him.
I would let him settle in and then find a way to fire him after surrendering his seat no matter how much it cost and I bet everyone in this great state would donate
Uniparty doesn’t change…or disappoint.
They ARE very predictable, its a weakness we CAN exploit.
“Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity”- “Bullet Tooth Tony”- “Snatch”
Disgusting. If DeSantis is friendly to Sasse, he’s a scumbag. Sasse is an awful human being who not only hates Donald Trump but Trump’s voters and the people of Nebraska.
DeEe-licious!
This is a win win. Sasse gets out of the senate with 4 years left and hopefully his replacement is not another rino. At the same time Sasse is still way better than the extreme leftists that normally serve as university presidents. DeSantis wouldn’t have picked him if he wasn’t going to change this liberal madness at UF.
Are you new here?
He/She is right.
“At the same time Sasse is still way better than the extreme leftists that normally serve as university presidents.” I despise Sasse. Yet I totally agree with your point.
It won’t be a win. My guess is the governor of NE will appoint another uniparty hack. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been allowed to resign for an even cushier grift.
Let’s hope his replacement is an upgrade. Either way, he was only making about 180K a year as a senator. As UF president his starting salary will be about 1 million per year. No one would have prevented him from going after a 550% raise, irregardless of who his replacement is.
Also his replacement will only serve until 2024, when there will be a special election. So at worst we shaved 2 years off of a rino’s senate term.
McConnell gets to pick….
Let’s see, most of these students won’t even be at the university in four years or less (assuming they graduate on time or otherwise). What possible qualifications would any of these persons who’ve never held an administrative position or know anything of the financial and academic workings of their own university possibly have? What makes them think (a term I use lightly, since it seems more to be about how they “feel”) they could advise the process in a fair and unbiased manner that should result in a choice that would result in the best long term interests of the university, the administration, it’s faculty as well as its students? I think students should be allowed their input on the matter but not necessarily full voting status in this regard.
Original – by chance, does the ’59 pertain to the year you graduated?
I agree totally. What right do students have to oppose/approve any University hire? These snowflakes are afforded way too much power.
For the US, on average, 64% graduate in 6 years.
For Florida, on average, 30% graduate in 4 years.
Going to college is now officially a scam.
According the the UF website — The UF Board of Trustees consists of six citizen members appointed by the Governor and five citizen members appointed by the Board of Governors. and boy are the governor appointed trustees doozies–at the end of each bio they indicate gubernatorial appointee or otherwise. Shocker the Fattest Cats are appointed by the governor. https://trustees.ufl.edu/about-the-board/current-trustees/
DeSantis would be just as cozy with the fat cats as POTUS…
Universities are businesses. Learning is ….well, secondary.
I quote a line from Robert A. Heinlein’s blistering take on the “educational” system, in his novel “The Number of The Beast”:
“Univer$itie$ alway$ $tand $taunchly by their $olvent a$$ociate$.”
This is going to be so much fun watching President Trump destroy DeSantis on the campaign trail.
RDS will wish he’d led a more clean, principled career because all of this will be exposed and Trumps sunlight is the absolute best sunlight!
Oh, what a tangled web this weaves for both NB and U of F. Another Schumer-approved “dagger to the heart” for America, I suspect.
One step forward for DeSantis (Hurricane Ian) two steps back for (Never Trumper Ben sASSe.)
DeSantis on display as another swamp rat appointment of a useless used up politician. This is well traveled by thieves in power. Political payoff with massive salaries again on the taxpayers dime and increasing the old government retirement benefits. Those who are taken in by DeSantis pay attention. He’s bought and paid for.
Now RDS is just rubbing it in our MAGA faces. It’s almost as if the RINO’s have implemented the most extensive vote fraud system in American history … and can mock us VOTERS openly … ?
Desantis wants him ! BOTH DESANTIS AND SASSE RINOS.
“They also demanded more transparency during the selection process and the repeal of a new Florida law that makes presidential searches at state colleges and universities largely secret”
Good grief!!
A law that cancels out transparency even at that level.
Sasse is a never trumper and has been completely useless as a senator. So removing him is good. Gainesville can have him.
The left will never accept you. No matter how much you grovel to them.
And now the right hates you too.
The biggest problem the right wing of the Uniparty has with “Trumps MAGA” is that it forces the RINOS to expose themselves.
Without “Trump”, we would think nothing of a Senator retiring to become a University President, or of a Governor, of the same party, assisting in the appointment.
Politics as usual, when people aren’t paying attention….but again due to Trump, we ARE paying attention.
And as a responce to msm/tech censorship, we have developed a robust “rebel alliance” of alt-media, to spread the truth, quickly refuting the lie, and exposing the liars.
WE ARE paying attention, now!
To me, this is a made good on PDJT’s first promise, to Drain The Swamp.
He drained it, alright. Now we can all see the slime hiding in the bottom. And yes, we are paying attention!
This is Trump’s gift to us, and in my opinion perhaps his greatest legacy (to be).
Caption: “I just need 2 more smucks to pass my bill and you’es look like the 2 smucks.
Thank you. Left and right unite. Karma.
So are they libtards protesting a R? Or conservatives protesting a Rino?
They’re progs protesting the very chameleon they need, but are too blind to recognize.
Thank you. Btw WTF does your name mean. Inquiring minds wanna know.
I used to study taqiyya, as practiced by Muslims and progressives — and every line in Rick Astley’s hit song’s chorus can be backed up by Scripture.
That’s all.
All I know is that I’ll never run around and desert you.
Remember all the shenanigans with the Rickett’s GOPe regime in NE during the primary? He’s a real piece of work. None of this surprises me. When I first saw it I assumed Sasse and RDS were buds without knowing anything how the process worked in FL for this appointment. Same type of thing happened here in TN only it was a bargain between now Gov Lee and former Gov Haslam and the east TN mafia GOPe. Yes, follow the money.
What a wonderful, heartfelt send-off to the creep who (ahem) decided to retire!!!
Hopefully the DeSantis bus stays in FL, and realizes there is no road to the WH for it to travel. The crew pushing that bus is shoving hard, backed by RHINO big bucks.
He has to do something in 4 years. FL has term limits.
Whatever it is, I hope it is not political.
“Sasse is expected to depart this year and the Nebraska governor will make an appointment to fill his senate seat.”
I’m thinking, Paul Singer will have a huge say since he funded, Sasse and many others.
Couldn’t believe that Sasse was THE only applicant. The deep state can not infiltrate the Sunshine State. We are still questioning Nancy’s land purchase. And this is revealed after the largest hurricane in the State. Definitely follow the money!
Sundance: yay! welcome back!
instead of this:
Nebraska Governor Ben Sasse
did you want this?
Nebraska Senator Ben Sasse
RINO’s of a feather flock together.
? What’s in it for DeSantis ?
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Federal research grants and University contact awards could easily launder a $100 million or so without a trace
As America divides into MAGA and MAM (Make America Marxist), people like Sasse are reaping what they sowed.
With 21 million residents they have to bring in a carpetbagger?
I know. It’s crazy.
Why so much annoyance? He’ll be out of the Senate. Excellent.
Next, the useful idiots (aka minds-full-of-mush) can run him out of the new job too! Good riddance! Ha.
Ricketts has said that he will leave it up to the new governor to appoint the Senate replacement for Ben Sasse. Some people say that Ricketts himself would like the Senate seat.
Ricketts is swampy scum….links to Chicago…
The GOPe has us Floridians over a barrel as usual. “Whaddaya gonna do, vote for the Socialist??”…
I am not sasse fan but I would expel any “student” who protests his appointment. give them the same treatment that these pro life “terrorists” are facing for peaceful protesting. see how that works for ya.
This could be seen as a smart move by Gov. DeSantis to get a never-Trump RINO out if the Senate well before the end of his term, and perhaps have him replaced with an actual conservative. Does Antone know where Nebraska Gov. Ricketts fits on that spectrum? I’d think he can’t be worse that Sen. Sasse, and might be better.
Out of the Senate* Does anyone know* (Damn spell-check 🤣🤦♂️🤬)
Pretty much the same RINO.
If DeSantis dislikes Sasse enough to want him out of the Senate, there’s no way he would want Sasse to be the president of Florida’s main university system.
How the hell did that fetterman look alike little Ben get elected to anything?
Cotton is just as much a turncoat and is proof that not all who serve in our military take that oath seriously or even care.
Tom Cotton 👎
I wouldn’t have thought that DeSantis would be friendly with Sasse
Then you’re not paying attention.
Sasse is unimportant. The importance of this is that shows who DeSantis runs with.
I think it could have something to do with payback for former UCF football coach going back to his alma mater – NE. On football Saturdays, Sasse will have to admit to being in the swamp.
When’s our next protest?
My husband thinks this is Sasse’s way to establish residency and then run for Governor. Interesting idea
I had that thought as well
Your hubby might just have something there.
Sundance is back!
Didn’t Trump just say that he wants to be involved in the replacement of Sasse’s seat for Senate? This is going to get interesting because I don’t trust Gov. Ricketts either.
I guess compared to most university Presidents, who are borderline communists, Sasse is not so bad. But DeSantis could have done better.
DeSantis is ALL IN on GOPe.
They take care of each other.
Trump 2024/Kari Lake 2028
Making demands like they own the place, 😂. Narcissists.
If the camels pass you, you’re out of the race.
Choose your friends wisely, Desantis better stay in Florida til Trump gets us back on our track. Quite frankly I cannot fathem how DeSantis could be involved with such a man. You have to pause and ponder what other surprises he has hidden.
” I cannot fathem how DeSantis could be involved with such a man”
XX ………. you can’t trust a double crosser…………..
He needs to get elected governor of Florida…….and make that his swan song……….
He can buy a fleet of fishing boats and retire in Florida, never to be heard from again……..
Patriots will never trust a XX of President Trump and the MAGA movement.
The same goes for Kirk.
Amen…and amen.
Could it be that DeSantis was trying to remove Sasse from the Senate a couple of years early? What do we know about the Governor of Nebraska? It is time to find out, because DeSantis will not settle for a fishing boat and an early retirement. Although Trump might want to consider such an option. Isn’t he 76 years old already? And while we fight among ourselves about two men who may not even end up running for President in 2024, we could be losing a lot more than an election four weeks from now.
This is not an objection to your Presidential choice, Cactus. It is just something I have been thinking about lately.
Hi Pokey,
You are welcome to your views and speculations, they are your own. But what you don’t own are the facts.
President Trump is the leader of the 100,000,000+ MAGA movement of patriots that he built from scratch ………. and won two presidential elections with.
De-santi-s is, well, a XX of his own choosing.
He paired up with his GOPe twin, kirk, to try to ride in on the coattails of the greatest president the USA has ever had. He double crossed President Trump and the MAGA movement.
The swan song and fishing boat career for the XX was just a suggestion. He is welcome and free to do whatever he wants. He just won’t be welcomed to the MAGA movement….. his actions show he is 100% GOPe….he owns that. MAGA ain’t GOPe and GOPe ain’t MAGA.
Have a great MAGA day.
“Let’s go Brandon!”
ps Didn’t you enjoy President Trump’s two rallies this past weekend?
The democrats and GOPe can only dream of the crowds that President Trump can produce on short notice. They are just plain jealous of him.
Don’t be so loose with the facts, Cactus. We are in charge of nothing and the politicians of all stripes want us to remain clueless. There are trillions at stake and there are more than 150 million voters to influence. Trump could convince 100,000 people at every rally and it will still take rallies in more than 750 places for him to inspire enough of us.
Conversely, the Demcommies control what 90% of the population actually learn from all forms of media blasting them on a daily basis. I am still for Trump, but you and I are not in control of many of the facts. I would think the hard facts about who controls the information we receive would be a fact you would also be aware of. Claiming that Trump has over 100,000,000 voters locked up would ignore the fact that he has never locked up more than 74,000,000 of them.
Trump shows great energy, for a man his age, but I am nearly his age and I might have more facts about the affect old age can have on anyone. Let’s wait to see who is running in 2024, and whether we are both even around to vote by then, and focus on our number one problem which is dragging all of the MAGA candidates we can across the finish line next month.
The creation of a new major political party cannot be made from whole cloth. There have to be a lot of defectors from every existing party to even pretend we are going to win anything. Try to convince any Federal Bureaucrat that the Democrats are not their only ticket to the expansion and survival of their mostly political jobs. Another fact that I may understand pretty well.
Can’t totally fathom your point. You are for MAGA, but you doubt MAGA chances. Trump “only” got 74 million votes which without election fraud would have elected him twice over. There is no “new major political party” being envisioned. There is recognition maybe among more of the electorate of the Uni-party (Dems plus GOPe) and the actual Republican party the synonym for which is MAGA. It seems you’re pouring your (possibly age-related) pessimism to no clear path anywhere. Either there is or isn’t election fraud still extant enough to steal all future elections or this abomination of the Uniparty goes away in all future elections. DeSantis is savior of nothing. He wants the White House more than his integrity and of course he has it all rationalized–he will “do great things as President”. Actually, the Left will just bury him, and probably accomplish it in a way that they couldn’t–and never will–#45. So why not cease just finding ways to be cantankerous about the future and get back on board? The nation was born years after it should never have survived the greatest onslaught of infantry and navy the world had ever known in and about New York 1776. Okay, it’s dark. Turn your inner light back on and there will be that gleam again at the end of the tunnel.
100,000 x 750 would be 75,000,000 votes, which should be the minimum amount of votes required to win an election with 150,000,000 voters. No account is given to the fact that a minority of the popular vote can still win any election in this country. Sorry I wasn’t careful enough about my math, but now can you see my point?
I guess my pessimism is because nobody has ever won a Presidential election by running outside of either of the two major parties, George Washington excepted. We are talking about a revolution at the polls and we are assuming that the revolutionary voters would win by winning the most votes. That doesn’t mean I would not vote with the MAGA gang. It just means that I don’t see it working, especially if we don’t win control of both houses of Congress next month.
Please read what I wrote more carefully. Maybe it will make sense, or maybe it never will.
Beside Big Pharm, the MSM, the biggest problem is these people NEVER GO AWAY. Actually I have a hard time deciding the worst, they are all tied together. It would be great if RD boat a fleet of boats and retired, but it isn’t going to happen. Their children, and their grandchildren carry the torch. They never go away, never ever.
Good point Leavemygunsalone,
JMO.
It is estimated that a rookie congressman / governor is offered approximately $128,000 annually to be willing to sell out their constituents and fellow countrymen to the globalists / democrats / GOPe, aka communists.
Once they sell themselves and go through that one way turnstile, they never look back. They are indoctrinated to see it as a “right of passage” into the special elite….. with all of their special protections. They explain it that way to their family and their whole clan become part of the commie crime family. Stealing elections is just one of their benefits.
It takes a strong patriot to say no to the thugs who come to sell the deal to the “rookie” incumbent. We have some in congress / senate but that is the main purpose of the new “American First” President Trump endorsed candidates.
We have been fighting and beating the communists for over 100 years. We know how to take them down. The 2021 commie coup gang has already been beat …… we are just in the mop up stage now.
“Let’s go Brandon!”
Part of their “special protections” is an “immunity card”, aka “get out of jail free card.” This shows up in our “two tier justice system.”…….”okay for me but not for thee.” You probably have seen that “what, me worry?” look on many of the feds and crooked politicians.
I really fail to see how we have been beating the communists. If that’s true wouldn’t they have gone away with the fall of the USSR? Instead they control the US government now.
We can’t handle too many more of these “victories”.
I think DeSantis can read a poll number and realize he’s safer in Florida than in running against Trump.
Let’s hope. MAGA nation will DESTROY DeSantis if he attempts to skip in line without Trump’s blessing. We will make a grease stain of his career.
Oh.. xx double crosser. Never saw that before.
What do you think he will do, have a few conservatives speak on campus? That would hurt your feelings? The far left will also speak on campus does this disturb you?
After his performance as a Senator to thwart President Trump and the America First movement he’s persona non grata. As useful as the blue hair banshees he will now be responsible for at UF
They are both Yalie’s.
Let’s hope neither is Skull and Bones.
The relationship with Sasse is that they both have a link to “Dominionism” Do some research and you’ll find your answers to a lot of questions. Pence, Palin, Sasse, and RDS to name a few but it’s not MAGA. If RDS is a Sasse friend and I know Sasse is a hate Trumper, then I know where to keep one eye open. RDS is delusional, but aren’t they all. One hundred million voters is a pretty good indication of where they think this country should go.
I’m one them.
Do you honestly think this corrupt government will allow Trump his revenge?
You can’t go to Donga without drinking blood.
There has been something about DeSantis that I haven’t trusted. Before I found this site I was suspicious of the establishment but couldn’t give specific facts, but Sundance has provided the proof that validated my suspicions. DeSantis always seemed like an establishment guy and the way the elite conservative media swooned over him made me pause. Something didn’t seem authentic. Though other governors were taking the same actions as him even at times when the other governors led the pack on issues and solutions he got the credit and accolades. Kristie Noem never closed South Dakota but it’s DeSantis who gets the praise for keeping large parts of Florida open. (Noem is establishment too).
So this new job for Sasse is just revealing the establishment ties DeSantis has and how Trump is his ally until he doesn’t need him anymore.
Agree. And Youngkin led the CRT move. Abbott led the illegal relocation from his actual border state.
De Santis is definitely Phoenician navy–a member of the permanent establishment….but so is Trump..
a Decepticon should be in no position of authority, whether Senate, corporate exec, or school admin.
DeSantis is currently being watched close, as in under a microscope as he should be. Many, many DS flaws will be found. The money behind him is 100% DS RINOs, and as Evil as the Uniparty Club can get. If DeSantis was full on USA President right now, and had access to the nuke codes, His handlers would’ve had him starting WWIII Nukes on Russia.
