    I’m a Florida resident. Ron DeSantis sucks. Let me preface it. However, about 1-2x a year he does something that actually doesn’t suck.

      Likely he will get some labor rights related stuff, then will help in gutting worker’s protections in the name of “Hustle culture”, after that he will take the blame for the fallout and land into some another position.

      We are establishing a department of rape and scams, and these guys know all about it. Look at them now. With a tear in their eyes, the Tate brothers said Mr. Trump we’d be honored to head the department of rape and scams, and we’ll be sending you some bitches as soon as possible.

    …Trump-hating [Ron DeSantis] has disgraced himself by stating that [Andrew Tate] and [Tristan Tate] are not welcome in Florida!"

    Did I miss something? Since when do DeSantis and Trump not align on their shit values?

    But also, I mean, it doesn’t have to be said, but fuck all of them with a chainsaw.

    What a weird conflict. I don’t know who I want to win. Is it possible for them both to lose somehow? Like some kind of -1 sum game?

    I have no idea who Andrew Tate is. So I looked him up on Wikipedia, and he seems like the kind of awful person who would be a darling of the MAGAsphere.

    Could someone explain to me why DeSantis doesn’t want him then?

      Desantis has make a huge show of “stopping human traffickers” and there’s no way he can welcome them without being called out on hypocrisy. He can pass this off as a “White House thing” and try to keep his position.

        Being called out on hypocrisy has never stopped a conservative before. Hell, it’s practically required.

          This is the most confusing part of the situation.

          DeSatan is no voice of reason, so it’s a play for personal protection or gain… somehow. What do they know about Tate that’s so much worse than the average MAGA?

        So then why was he fine working and knowing Matt Gaetz committed statutory rape and paid for those women to cross state lines. He should have been actively campaigning for him not to be a Florida Congress member.

    Desantis is clearly worried that Andrew Tate will push him out of the running for “biggest piece of shit in the United States”… These guys take that award very seriously

      I never figured out why Paris Hilton’s sex tape was relevant at the time. Before the sex tape she wasn’t a public figure, or a celebrity. She was just daughter to the Hilton hotels founder. So why would anyone treat THIS sex tape like the Pam Anderson/Tommy Lee sex tape? Pam and Tommy were both celebrities BEFORE the tape was leaked. But Paris? Nobody knew who she was.

      Or the same thing with the Kardashians. Nobody knew them before the sex tape. I still don’t know why people would care about them.

      I guess what I’m asking here, is did tate ever have a sex tape leaked where some guy came all over his face while he was sucking it off? Apperently if you leak that sex tape, even talentless hacks can become celebrities.

      Although…fair play to Paris. She’s actually quite smart and doesn’t deserve to be labeled in the same camp as tate.

    Nice to know that piece of shit has a line in the sand somewhere. ‘convicted rapists and human traffickers’ is a horrible line to have to get to but at least it’s there? Still though, fuck DeSantis.
