This is not an intelligent man of temperate disposition. This is an empty vessel filled with the thoughts, catchphrases, and opinions of others, including his apparel.
What is this choice of goofy footwear supposed to represent?
DeSantis spoke with DailyMail.com ahead of his remarks at a breakfast with Nevada Republicans at Treasure Island on the Las Vegas Strip. (Source)
Someone once swore to me that a person very close to DeSantis was intentionally undermining his effort because they quietly disliked (immensely) the fraudulent operation surrounding this long-planned 2024 presidential bid. I laughed it off, but they were very serious. As time goes on, and these subtle exhibitions of his authentically stupid persona surface, I no longer dismiss that prior statement.
7 inch lifts.
I just found the title for my next album…
Now if he could just make them hydraulic – like the low-rider vehicles!
When he comes out on the stage, his theme music could be that song from “War”
I am sure it can be done – just requires the installation of a valve (in each boot) and some way to actuate it?
Much more to it than that, so, no, not really.
However, might you be interested in some C4?
Plenty of room in there for a quantity sure to launch his campaign higher than ever.
Maybe he wears them because he is so deep in the weeds?
Those are the kind of boots one buys when they find money stashed in the door panel of a used car they just bought.
Well at least they don’t have silver toe caps and spurs. Where I live in Florida boots are the norm.
would like them better with the toe caps and spurs, then you know he works hard for a living as do the rodeo cowboys.
You’d think a grown man would have enough sense to wear black alligators with a dark suit….sheesh🇺🇸🦅🤣
Indeed. And what’s up with that tie… phewwwww-YYYY… Grade A Fashion Disaster…
A classy pair of black alligator boots spit shined and he would be looking amazing. Certainly they had budget for that, what’s that, a thousand bucks?
“Did you ever get the feeling that the world was a tuxedo and you were a pair of brown shoes?” -George Gobel
I remember George and him saying that. I’m sooo old…
Some of the things that
surprised me when moving from the Midwest to Florida:
Oak trees. Bazillions of oak trees. You shouldn’t have to still rake your yard in Florida.
Cowboys and rodeos. The largest rodeo east of the Mississippi is in Kissimmee, home of the Mouse.
Scrawny bovines that are range-fed rather than corn-fed. These are not cows. These are poor imitations.
No tornado sirens, in spite of leading the nation in tornadoes per 10,000 miles. More than states in Tornado Alley. I was told in the 90s it’s because tornadoes drop down and back up so frequently that the sirens would be going off all the time.
There’s maybe ten people actually born here. Everyone is from somewhere else. Looking at you, New York.
I’ve little doubt the Dumbasspora is well represented in Florida.
Locusts fleeing their Commie breeding grounds typically remain voracious and destructive.
That is what has happened in Maine, especially since covid. In a public space, you hear more Massachusetts’s accents than anything else. They bring their politics and world views with them. People keep asking “hey it’s Maine…no gun permit required…why was nobody carrying when the shooting began?” The bowling alley in Lewiston was a gun free zone and that isn’t the idea of your typical Mainer that is born and raised here.
Infestation of New York City Dumbassary!
I was born in New York, moved to Oklahoma very young, stayed in Texas off and on. The Oklahoma country boys hated us, I didn’t realize why until later and I now fit that mold also.
They come in like invaders changing everything instead of assimilation. I miss the old country store, the smell, the look , they didn’t have clams, or oysters, no fish really but, we caught all the catfish and bass you wanted to eat. It was just different, and as a kid I didn’t fight that I just learned new things.
Why can’t everyone enter with that idea, used to. New York ain’t a great place, matter of fact it sucks compared to most of the country, the thing is work is applied in a whole different manner. A revelation forgotten, biblical, working with your hands is bliss for a man, and woman who works with a man.
Im not going any farther with this because we all see it, and despise what’s happening. America never was a “coexist” country of muslims, Jews, and all types it was a melting pot by culling out those who want to change it.
I suspect barbarism is coming around again in some form, men will not lay with snakes indefinitely, queers might, transgenders might, pedophiles might, criminals, politicians definitely will, but men will not. Women will soon see why a man is a man and will stand beside them once again. Not challenging him but helping, as God intended.
Side note, I noticed the Muslim cowards in back in the rioting, women in front very fitting for lying, lazy excuses of a man. We are invaded by men with no chests, well, except those with implants. I think even nature will uprise.
Janet, I’ve lived here 25 years and there has only been a handful of tornadoes in that timespan throughout the state. I think you need to check your facts on that one.
Haven’t been to Florida in about 25 years. The biggest problem before was the NY and NJ Jews. The obviously Democrat ones.
It should be noted that Florida was the original cattle state, long before there was attempts out West with the wild and stringy Longhorn, and before other breeds were brought in from Europe to raise or crossbreed with. Same with the Florida ‘cracker’ horses brought in centuries ago. They are rare.
They are swamp cattle and their blood lines go back to Spanish times here. Most beef cattle today and for the last 100 or so years are from strains from Europe, particularly the UK.
Florida supplied beef to the South before and after the Civil War. In the early days, most beef cattle came from Florida.
Those ‘bovine’ that you refer to may well have been descendants of the original Florida ‘cracker’ cows that are now endangered if not threatened or nearly extinct, that a few families are trying to preserve their blood lines. Those cattle were used to crossbreed way back when to provide new hybrids to survive in hot, Humid climates, for which they were highly valued. Western cattle may not do so well here in Florida, with the humidity and the lack of cold weather to fatten them up on with corn.
Same goes for the original ‘cracker’ horses. Smaller, but more robust, for the climate, that a few other families are protecting with help from the State.
You may also notice, that bear and deer are not as big here either. Their strains are also genetically mutated to survive in year round, hot, humid weather.
As far as tornadoes go, I’m originally from Georgia. While we didn’t have as many tornadoes as Western states when I lived there, we had our share of bad ones. Personally, I notice some in Florida, but doesn’t seem nearly as many nor as severe. Hurricanes are a whole different story, though.
I moved from FL to OK several years ago (to help my mom) and the tornado sirens freak me out and get on my nerves! I never needed them in FL (and quite frankly I don’t need them here, either) because I remain weather aware.
The biggest difference in OK is they blow across so quickly and move so fast that you couldn’t really prepare for them anyway. In FL we had the beautiful oak and pine trees that took the brunt of the wind force. Out here it’s just hay fields.
Thanks! I have been to Florida in the past, but did not really see the state or learn very much about it. Yours is the voice of reason.
from Jacksonville and Tallahassee – FL is a beautiful and diverse terrain state…
Yep, I’ve been from Key West (loved it) to Pensacola. Spent most of my visits to Florida around Panama City as have relatives living there. Great State, and could be even greater if this damned Governor would do his job rather than seeking power at cost of his promises made when running for reelection. Damned legislators should not have changed the law.
I’m from here.
You are in the wrong part of Florida if only 10 people around you are true Floridians.
Go explore real florida and hit the country
You shouldn’t rake your yard. Mow the leaves in and allow them to decay into the soil. Makes your soil good and rich instead of sand, and corn fed cows taste like corn fed cows. Now, grass fed is delicious!
We are in NC(Ocala) and Amelia Island(NE) FL..Yes we have pumpkin patches, Christmas Lights, Santa and a change of season..it’s beautiful..I have many friends “from”FL. We do not have alligators in our pool or Palmetto bugs everywhere. Many days it’s warmer in SW PA, last Christmas it was 21 degrees in Ocala..It’s not “so humid you can’t breath..Ocala is the lightning strike capital of the country and many horse owners lose one or two horses a year to lightning. Ocala has beautiful rolling hills and horse farms much like Washington County, PA…Amelia Island has a quaint historic district and beautiful beaches..it’s clean and beautiful..my dream come true!!!
I moved here from Illinois a couple years ago and could have written exactly what you wrote, word for word. I love it but this has been my experience.
Sundance, WTF?
Have you never been to Texas?
I agree that desanctimonius is a douche, but the boots?
That’s a stretch.
I agree, but I think he could have picked a pair of boots that didn’t clash with the suit.
Right? Who is dressing him?!
Hi flakey wife?
She wanted a taller husband, gifted him the boots w/lifts when he won his first congressional seat. Her eyes were focused on the future, the presidency. Then Trump happened.
A great ankle monitor disguise… beats wearing a cast!
I think Sundance’s point was that these are not authentic to DeSantis.
Where are all of the pics of him wearing cowboy boots before he started to run for President? If he is a true cowboy boot lover, there would be lots.
It’s not that he’s wearing boots, it’s that he’s wearing those boots.
Cowboy boots are ok, and they should match your suit. This pair is the wrong choice for the occasion.
Agreed.
I dunno Sundance, they are nice boots that I would wear and I have worn boots that were not that dissimilar.
But not with that suit! I like and wear boots all the time…with jeans! Not a suit!
Cowboy dress boots on a governor from Florida. That’s funny and too, too obvious. Pandering.
They wear boots in Florida? Having grown up in Las Vegas, the guy is a phony. Reminds me of Hiliary’s BS in dressing..
They’re called ‘boots’. Nothing wrong with ’em. Now, the wearer? Well that’s a whole topic in itself.
Those are his last chance to get near the White House
He found them on his last trip to the border and a passerby let him know these pointy boots are what illegals and criminals wear to climb chain link fences
“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face – for ever” — George Orwell
He is wearing cowboy boots, for Pete’s sake. Yes, they make him look taller. Big deal. They are also very comfortable, once you break them in a bit. Believe me, I know from long experience.
DeSantis would never get my vote, for a number of reasons. Cowboy boots, though, aren’t among them. That said, they seem a bit odd, given his home state, but…who cares?
I doubt you would let your husband or boyfriend go out like that.
He looks like an idiot with those boots in that suit.
As a politician… or a prospective politician… one of the baseline goals of any public appearance would be, no doubt, “Don’t do anything that will make people laugh at you”…
Watching him walk in those extended front boots doesn’t look comfortable. The front moves (sort of flops) as if they have been broken in tho.
That part of them is empty!
Flip flops. 😉
No toes at the front.
Oh come on! DeSantis doesn’t have the style, or class, to pull off wearing any Cowboy boots!
If I had to dress him it would be a tailored black suit, white shirt, red tie, and a pair of well made oxfords.
“them Limey eyes are eyeing the prize some people call manly footwear”
DeSantis is a poser. There is nothing wrong with the boots, just the guy wearing them.
Love that song by Jerry Jeff Walker- London Homesick Blues Thanks for the reminder Susan!
“What is this choice of goofy footwear supposed to represent?”

You know when
parentshandlers & donors dress their little2-year-old sonslistless vessels in cowboy attire including giant, ill-fitting, off-putting boots?[Before he began running for the presidency (which was before he announced), DeathSantis did indeed project a sense of unconventionality & authenticity (not surprisingly, two of Trump’s greatest traits) to me; however, since then, he appears wholly owned and managed. Too bad, and I can never trust him again now …]
My son (who is now 45 years old) wore cowboy boots with jogging pants as a toddler. We called him the jogging cowboy.
There are many cowboys in Florida?
No
There are some cowboys in Florida?
No
There are some people in Florida who own cows and one cowboy without any cows.
Actually, Florida is one of the oldest cattle producing states in the nation. And probably in the 10-15 range for most cattle produced.
Most of the cattle are bred to be used as feed stock elsewhere, as in all over the world.
There are plenty of Florida ‘cracker cowboys.’ But their style is a little different.
Same with horses. Up and down the central hill country around Ocala.
Maybe you should take a look at the Florida Cattleman’s association website and research Florida’s long and storied history of cattle and horse rearing.
Been going on since before colonial times.
There’s a vendor at our local Hispanic flea market that sells boots that look a lot like that
(Hint: they’re NOT Tony Lama)
They are authentic “Cowboy Boots”. You can not like the man, you can be petty and act as if this is some great offensive but the boots themselves are actual “boots”. My assumption is: you may prefer square toes boots, which are ok for men who have assumed a more domesticated role, such as doing the dishes and that’s fine for you. The square toed boots give the domesticated guy an advantage when doing dishes. It means you can stand closer to the sink and not splash soapy water in the floor. I find “Cowboy Boots” more versatile and comfortable. They slide easily into a stirrup, they fit nicely up the ass of a misguided fool and think how nice the look tucked under the side of your girlfriends bed. . .
I think I have seen these boots before when he was at another event in the Midwest or a western state. Maybe he only has the one pair. Just like so many other politicians …..fake! Trying to fit in where they have no idea about the people or their culture. Please go home Ron and take care of your state.
There are many pictures of him wearing black ones, which he should have worn to this event.
Maybe someone sabotaged him by recommending these?
Drawing attention to a fatal defect of an inferiority complex?
We all but ignored their weirdness until it’s shoved in our faces with a shocking sartorial contrast . . .
He wore them in Iowa…
Perhaps those are his favorite “comfy” boots and he thought he’d need some form of comfort at this event. He never seems to be comfortable or himself anywhere or anytime I’ve seen him.
I well remember when he went to Skynard for a song, and he seemed out of place (and the song was corny and never took off) and uncomfortable there, too.
Boots are great! I wore them for 30 years until I wore out the pads on the bottom of my feet. BUT!!! Those boots do NOT go with that suit! Geesh!!!
Meathead Ron is the perfect tool for the Neocon scum. Pull his string and listen to him go.
El Rushbo would say that Meathead Ron’s gourd is full of mush.
Does he wear boots often or only in NV?
He wants his campaign to die with it’s boots on…
LOL
all hat and no cattle
i.e
They’re just boots. Calm your tits.
Lol. Nicely done.
They look ridiculous.
ri·dic·u·lous
/rəˈdikyələs/
adjective
That’s a lot of pants legs riding up, almost halfway up his calf. It’s almost like they were temporarily hemmed up on a surger 2.5 to 3″ higher than they should be, just to show off the boots. I’m not sure if what I’m seeing is a big cuff at the bottom by the way the material pinches. The boots are a little fancy for my tastes, but whatever floats your boat.
His handlers have him attempting the Ronald Reagan look.
Only problem is anyone who voted for, or would now vote for, Ronald Reagan isn’t hypnotized by fakery
IMO cowboy boots only become goofy footwear when paired with a cheap polyester suit and a dweeb.
On a virile outdoorsman in tight Wranglers with a big silver belt buckle and Tango Ranch hat….there ain’t no goofy about it!
Those are alligator boots, right? Seems about right for Florida Man. He also grew up in baseball culture and for those that don’t know, baseball culture involves boots for dressing up.
He’s should’a been a cowboy….pandering to the west voter base.
He is a bore.
Man wearing c’boy/Western boots. Folks here REALLY badly needing something to pick apart. I’d’ve ditched the tie. They serve ZERO purpose.
Could he be wearing prosthetics like the kind of running blades that Oscar Pistorius wore? They curled up at the toes too.
His don’t curl, they fold!
He should! (Fold, that is.)
Nailed it!!!!😂😂
Born & raised in Texas. Pin quill ostrich boots make a statement. They’re expensive. I’ve never owned them. Brown decorated boots with a blue suit stick out like a sore thumb. Black or shell cordovan would be in good taste. My guess is, he’s insecure about his height. Honestly, I couldn’t care less how he dresses or how tall he is. My main problem is his disloyalty to Trump. It’s also become obvious he doesn’t have the leadership skills required at this very difficult time. He would have been a puppet of the corporate oligarchs. (GOPe) He has no future in politics. The only thing that could possible save him is drop out, confess his waywardness, expose the temptation of corporate millions & false promises, apologize to Trump, and campaign like hell for him. Doubt that will happen.
Along the lines with what Sundance said about someone in the RDS campaign actually working to undermine him, IMHO if there was such a person – or if there are such people – they would be working at the behest of Jeb! to make sure that RDS is totally sidelined . . . although Jeb! endorsed RDS, I think he actually wants RDS out of the way of George P. Bush. The Bush Family planning continues.
I agree. Dubya initially lost to Kent Hance (‘78) running for Congress only to be elected Governor years later. I used to see P around Austin while working at UT. I never saw him come out against Trump even when Jeb got is a** kicked so badly. As P ran for AG against Paxton, he was doubled up in voting. No doubt in my mind had Paxton been impeached, the establishment would have seen a way for P as his replacement. Paxton is back at work holding the treasonous pResidant & seditious cabinet accountable for the invasion at our border. I digress. The Bushes are at work behind the scenes in Texas and P is their man.
Light brown cowboy boots with that suit? Zero style sense! 😁 Goes with his zero political sense running for President now when Trump way up & rather than 2028 after a successful 2 Terms as Florida Governor with a strong successor elected was the natural time. Perhaps he’s not as bright as folks thought.
Bet it has something (anything) to do with Trumps appearance in Vegas at Stoney’s Rockin’ Country in the city of Las Vegas.
yep.
TY for posting that. It’s so strange, seems he has short feet. It looks like a vanity thing (his height) but could be a physical deformity of some kind.
physical deformity? lizard feet?
Can’t walk in them normally. Something is off.
why would anyone wear boots that didnt fit? Are his feet size 4?
Randy is doing just Fine ?
Yes, he’s backtracking his endorsement for Meatball. Trump did mention him yesterday.
He’s in a suit for crying out loud! Cowboy boots and a suit. And Casey let him go outside like that? He should have worn jeans! The guy is a d!@k!
Okay…maybe Casey isn’t speaking to him anymore now that she knows she will never be First Lady!
He should take fashion advice from a woman who wears ball length gloves in the afternoon? Visions of Jackie O were dancing in her little/big head.
Somebody convinced Ron DeSantis that he’s a character in a movie about a “political renegade” running for President Of The United State Of America.
You are aware n’est-ce pas that Zero selected his own Secret Service moniker of Renegade?
Your movie idea is kinda funny in that Zero is surely playing a role in the Runt DeSanctus operation . . .
Could you imagine Meatball sitting down at an important meeting with various Heads of State, Kings, Princes, and Royalty while wearing those flashy boots??
I know that President Reagan enjoyed wearing cowboy boots but when he was in a suit doing serious presidential work he wore men’s dress shoes. Meatball only wants to wear cowboy boots which often do not fit the occasion and the company that surrounds you. Why go through all of the bother to LOOK TALL when he just goes and sits in a chair?? If he wants to look tall then remain standing. Otherwise, just start the interview sitting down and wearing a nice pair of men’s dress shoes with matching socks.
If you are just a regular Joe and want to wear cowboy boots everywhere then great for you.
But if you are the Meatball from Florida who wants to be the President of the USA then go learn how to dress so that you do not make the Office of the President look like the man in charge is UNfit to have the title of POTUS.
He really just needs to embrace his short stature and walk around Like a Boss. There are plenty of short men who command a room. They have to work at it but they succeed.
Nobody hate Michael J Fox because he is short. America loved him. It can be done.
Zelensky and Bill Maher are both shorter than Ron but they own it, it hasn’t hurt them at all.
Light colored Exotic skin boots with a dark suit shows meatballs has no sense.
He obviously lost a bet to someone and is a man of his word.
Did he wear them before he started campaigning? If yes then no problem. If no them why now?
My question. Where are all of the pics over the years showing him wearing his favorite boots?
” These are snakeskin boots! And for me they’re a symbol of my individuality, and my belief… in personal freedom.”
He’s the 21st century George Romney-total goofball.
He needs a boot.
He should be wearing flip-flops. At home, in FLORIDA.
HERE HE IS el Rono https://images.app.goo.gl/axQjS1R6GCVngR729
Compensating much? 😂
