DeSantis!

The Never Back Down guy backed down yesterday and like Ted Cruz before him, Ron DeSantis dropped to his knees to kiss the boots of The Defendant. The guy who couldn't finish a sentence without the word "woke" fell asleep in the campaign. The tough guy Governor of Florida, the "Free State of Florida", the guy who banned books, took on the Mouse, sent vulnerable migrants to Martha's Vineyard,  got into bum fights with the press, arrested black voters, licked his lips constantly, smiled like early onset A.I., let Casey take over any speech he felt uncomfortable doing, and on a national basis was even less popular than Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush, pussed out and quit. Like most bullies he got punched by an even bigger bully and crawled away, hat in hand, and expressed his admiration for the other bully. A Profile in Courage.

Ron DeSantis, if nothing else, proved that outside of Florida, the Villages, and Alabama South, he is just another asshole. He bacame even less likable as he went along. From beating Trump in some polls early on, he fell way behind as people got to know him. He's awkward. not nice, and a misanthrope. His attempts to talk with average Iowans were cringy. He basically hates people and unless he can stand-in front of gang of press, with sycophants standing behind him, and bait one into asking him a tough question so he can appeal to his fellow assholes by throwing a tantrum and denying reality, Ron DeSantis is a bad national candidate. Trump's an asshole too, a misanthrope who hates people, but he has a charisma I cannot explain. He gets crowds to not realize he's in utter contempt of them and makes people laugh for some reason. The old punch down comedy so many dickheads like. DeSantis isn't funny in the least, he hates people outwardly, and he has a disdain for his voters that he doesn't even attempt to hide. 

Thus, Iowa said hey fuck off. We prefer the evil we know. At least he's entertaining. You're just a stiff. New Hampshire was about to say fuck off as was South Carolina and the guy and his minions in Never Back Down who spent $150,000,000 fucked off. In his concession speech he quoted Winston Churchill with the famous words Churchill never said, "Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts." I don't know if he saw that quote on a towel at Cracker Barrel or if he figured MAGA would never google it much less google Churchill, but DeSantis, like his conqueror, just cannot tell the truth.

Remember back when people were saying DeSantis is just like Trump, but smarter.

Wrong!
