Florida’s Governor is rebuking the Second Gentleman for suggesting that Kamala Harris will make a play in the Sunshine State.
During an appearance on “The Ingraham Angle,” Ron DeSantis dismissed Doug Emhoff’s assertion that Democrats will “see what they can do in Florida” as simple “wishful thinking.”
“At the end of the day, you have a candidate, Kamala Harris; she’s a vapid San Francisco leftist. We’ve got people that have fled San Francisco to come to Florida to get away from Harris’ type of governance. I have people in Florida who fled Minnesota to get away from Tim Walz’s governance. They saw Minneapolis burn when he was governor. He sat there and let it happen. So that’s not in the cards, especially in Florida,” the Governor said Thursday.
According to polls, the race is closing. In this state, with a million more Republicans than Democrats, Trump is up by just three points on average.
Yet DeSantis says it’s more than a numbers game, and Trump will win “not just because of the fact that we have so many more Republicans now, but we have a lot of Republicans who know what that type of leftist governance is,” and that Harris’ beliefs are “out of step” with Americans.
Emhoff was in the Villages last week, where he addressed a number of topics, including Project 2025 and its “attacks on seniors. ” While noting Trump has threatened political opponents, he praises the Jan. 6 insurrectionists, still questions the 2020 Election, and invokes Hungarian leader Viktor Orban as a “character witness” during the debate with Harris.
During a fundraiser Wednesday, Emhoff told donors, “The map is wide open, and we need the money to compete in seven and possibly eight states.” He added that he was “just in Florida at the Villages, and it was wild.”

I think Florida is more in play than Desantis wants to admit. There might be more republicans than democrats but that doesn’t mean all those republicans will vote that way. Don’t forget about the independents too

Wishful thinking like his run in the primaries? He certainly knows what wishful thinking is.

Well, voter suppression is something he’s trying. It’s now practically illegal for civic and community organizations to launch voter registration drives thanks to draconian Republucan copycat laws that threaten efforts with huge financial liabilities. These efforts target mostly young people and people of color in minority communities. And the voter intimidation squad is hard at work harassing signatories to ballot initiatives that the governor doesn’t like.

Minimizing turnout is the key to electoral victory for the permanent minority.
Republican voting democrat

I’m republican and I’m voting for Harris. This new GOP “republican” party has left sanity. The good ole days when republicans stood for small government, independence, freedom are long gone. It seems the democrats of today are the republicans of 20 years ago. I’ll be voting for every democrat and putting an end to this nonsense “common sense” garbage.

When the “second Gentleman “ was at the Villages, did they have a Spare Nanny available for him?

He doesn’t need a nanny, unlike Trump who needs only those who lick his as* every minute of the day and night.

Peachy still attempting to run with the false nanny narrative. Go ahead — give us your source for this bit of salacious and false gossip.

Instead of stepping on the toes of the fed govt, DeSantis needs to explain why my condo insurance MORE THAN DOUBLED this year to $1400, my condo fees went up again (insurance increase) and half the insurance companies are leaving the state. At the same time insurance claims INCREASED hurricanes and storms are affecting profits, DeSantis removes all refeferences of CLIMATE CHANGE in govt
