‘Remove Ron’ targets Ron DeSantis in Nevada, but he won’t show

DeSantis13
Out of state play from anti-DeSantis PAC.

A political action committee working to ensure Gov. Ron DeSantis is a one-term Governor is targeting him in a different state today … but DeSantis ultimately won’t be there.

“Remove Ron” will have a special “Friday the 13th” billboard, a mobile display trolling DeSantis in Las Vegas with a scary theme.

“Beware. Today is Friday the 13th. Ron Deathsantis is in town,” the text portends, next to a picture of a scowling DeSantis.

The goal was to punish DeSantis for “abandoning” Floridians during the pandemic to fundraise. But DeSantis won’t be there to see it.

DeSantis was slated to grace the stage in Nevada on Friday the 13th in support of Sen. Tom Cotton. But he will not be there. Instead, he will remain in the state, as Tropical Storm Fred makes its approach this weekend.

Also in attendance: former Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt, a long-standing friend of DeSantis who is looking to run for Senate.

DeSantis was also slated to appear the next day at the Basque Fry, which is put on by Laxalt’s Morning in Nevada PAC, and another Cotton fundraiser. But these events will go on without the Governor.

      Sonja with her morning illiterate rant from the trailer park. If there is a doofus in politics right now it would be Joe Biden and his incompetent sidekick. Look what is going on at was once our Southern Border. Kamala’s complete failure of that task assigned by Joe proves she is only good at one thing. Just as Willie. Sonja, gas prices are up 40% since dumb and dumber took over. Don’t you know there is a journalist in Kabul hoping to get a Kodak moment and capturing Joe’s “Fall of Saigon” moment that will live with him forever. Pure buffoonery going on at the White House right now.

        Twenty years and trillions of dollars dedicated to Afghanistan and you have to wonder why the Taliban is an effective miitary force and the Afghan national forces aren’t. What utter folly. Fumbling, corrupt Joe hasn’t a clue.

        Ed gas prices are determined by demand they have nothing to do with a president.
        Same with are inflation rates on food and everything else we purchase. Demand goes up prices go up.

          That’s funny JT. Now if Trump was President the MSM would be howling about the 40% increase in fuel prices and increases in other commodities. It’s Friday so I won’t mention the failed policies of The Southern Border, crime in the cities, the fall of Kabul, and on and on.

      “There are non so blind as he who will not see.” Gov. DeSantis is clear sighted and the BEST Governor we have ever had! Thank God he is our Governor.

    Fear and loathing in Las Vegas. The Dems must really regard DeSantis as a threat in 2024.

      Only as a threat to our democracy.

        LOL!!! Yeah, keep telling yourself that, and wear your mask.

          I wear a mask to protect others.

            Good for you and thank you for speaking up against the death cult Republicans!

            No, you wear a mask under the delusion that you protect others, and to show how virtuous you are.

            August 13, 2021 at 4:29 pm

            Zhombre, masks protect others as well as myself, especially those not vaccinated. That is a fact regardless what DeSantis has stated. Funny, how many anti-maskers scream you can not take my freedom away by mandating masks, but I don’t have the freedom to wear one. Masks do save lives.

          • Zhombre

            August 13, 2021 at 4:35 pm

            As far as I am concerned, you are completely free to wear a mask. That is your choice. Fine by me. I am vaccinated, and I would urge others to get vaxxed too, but they can make their own choices. But whatever my choices, I refrain from making demands from others, and refrain from shouting about my virtue in being a good citizen.

    Andrew Gillum approves your comment.
    He would love to congratulate you in person! He will be waiting at his hotel room in Miami for you. I recommend dressing casual and bringing lots of cash… oh wait a second, you’re a female I think he only prefers male prostitutes when he’s in a drug induced bender..

    In all honesty if you voted for that guy last time around, it’s no wonder you come across as a bitter & uneducated fool.
    It’s rhetoric like yours that is going to come back and bite you and others like you someday soon.
    I’m laughing at you, and it feels great!

    We all know who the real doofus is in this comment section.

    Come to FL! Our mobile morgues are open for business!!
    These headlines just write themselves amirite comrades?

    Thank God we have a Governor like Ron who is willing to fly to Vegas to fundraise for his next office while his state is being ravaged by a pandemic. If there’s one thing we know about Ronnie it’s that he’s a politician who is never satisfied with his current job. Don’t get me wrong he likes his job he just doesn’t like the responsibilities attached to it. See covid response. Ronnie was upside down in his tony Ponte Vedra district before he chained himself to Trump so he could get the gig in Tally. The folks in his district were looking to replace him with someone to the right of Ronnie before Trump came along.

    Meanwhile that lousy Joe Biden is always trying to send us medical supplies we need but don’t want. For shame you tyrant!! We’d rather die on our feet(or on a ventilator in an overcrowded ICU unit) than live on our knees. #freedumb

    That being said Ronnie will easily win re-election next year and prolly become our next potus in ’24 because people are stupid (if this discussion board is any indication.) Never underestimate people’s ability to vote against their own self interest. Plus Ronnie has no core beliefs. Much like his mentor he’s willing to say and do anything to turn his base out. If you don’t believe me watch him on faux news for 30 sec. I’d watch him longer but I can feel myself getting dumber when I do.

      You are a sick poisonous tool Frankie. You and Alex are unhinged.
      So vile, so mentally distorted and more importantly just wrong.
      But Governor Ron will win by 10 Pts.
      He will sweep in more State Senate & House seats and even greater 3 new congressional seats. Nikki Fraud is a electoral meltdown but great for Repubs. Go cry eye.

        America’s Governor stands on Angels wings compared to you Dums.
        Your Dem Govs are corrupt.
        Cuomo the fondler.
        Newsom the recaller.
        Whitmer the anti gardener.
        Northam the black facer.
        Between the stupid WH staff building Ron up, and the above, Gov Ron stands alone.
        Good going Frankie, you are a loser.
        Go call loser Alex.
