‘Like pudding on pavement’: New anti-Ron DeSantis ad slams ‘ego-driven vanity project’

DeSantis
'Like pudding dropped on pavement, the Ron DeSantis campaign is a massive mess and impossible to clean up.'

An anti-Ron DeSantis group hopes to put a cloud over the Governor’s debate performance with a new ad claiming that his “campaign remains in a state of free fall.”

The DeSantis Watch ad, titled “Crashing,” slams the Governor’s positions on abortion and his “racist agenda,” and claims that “his campaign is broke and fighting with itself.”

“Ron couldn’t even successfully launch his own campaign. Now the DeSantis campaign is crashing,” the ad narrator states. “One misstep after another for a failing candidate while Floridians have real problems that need to be addressed now.”

The ad closes with the narrator telling DeSantis to “give up your ego-driven vanity project and do your job.”

In a news release announcing the ad buy, DeSantis Watch Communications Director Anders Croy said, “Like pudding dropped on pavement, the Ron DeSantis campaign is a massive mess and impossible to clean up.”

“The more voters have seen of Ron DeSantis, the less they have liked, which isn’t surprising given that most Americans don’t support banning abortion or books,” he continued. “It’s time for Ron DeSantis to stop sticking his fingers where they don’t belong, end his ego-driven vanity campaign for President, and come home to fix the affordability crisis in Florida that he created in the state still paying his six-figure taxpayer-funded salary.”

    He should have been forced to resign to run for his failed presidential candidacy. I can’t wait till the corrupt FL Legislature takes their revenge on pudgy fascist Ronny DeSantis.

      He waited until his legislative puppets changed the law so he could run AND keep his job as governor. Just shows how useless he is as he runs around the country NOT doing his job.

    O really don’t want Ron DeSantis to do to the United States the damage he’s done to Florida….. but the last message in this video pleaded with DeSantis to return to Florida….. I’m not thrilled with that option either.

    DeSantis will never be President it’s time for him to find a job in the private sector and get off the government nopple…..FOREVER!

    I’m for rescinding his backup order the Republican toadies passed so Ron boy could remain governor while running for president. I think Floridians are sick of this no heart, no soul politician.
