Trump vs. DeSantis

Made me like DeSantis a little more…
But as to the quality of the ad… Seriously? Of all the potential Sci-Fi futures we could have selected have we really decided on Idiocracy?

So on one side we have a guy that was good friends with Jeffrey Epstein (called him a terrific guy), supports Disney and their grooming ways, and not only argues against the Bud Light boycott, but is an investor and has tried to promote Anheuser Busch… A guy that shut down the United States for months and allowed the most basic and fundamental rights to be taken away for many weeks on the advice of Fauci. A guy the swamp he railed about take the reins of the country for months in the middle of a crisis.
On the other side we have a decorated Naval Officer that served 3 successful terms in the House, and then successfully led one of the largest states in the nation through COVID by adhering to certain principles, most notably that in the middle of an emergency is when you most have to respect our fundamental rights. He has adroitly and compassionately removed CRT (which prospered under the Trump/DeVos Education Department) and trans idealogy (which prospered under the Trump/Azar Health and Human Services…How many kids transitioned between 2017 and 2021?)…
How is this even a question?

Gov. DeSantis is trying to walk a thin line - show that he is different from President Trump, but also not attack him directly.

“As a naval officer, if I would’ve taken classified [documents] to my apartment, I would have been court-martialed in a New York minute,” he told a Republican Party convention in Greensboro, North Carolina.

UNQUOTERightly so.
So why are Pence and Biden getting a pass?

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Not sure I understand?
I think that VP Pence is trying to the same as Gov DeSantis - let people know that he is different from Pres. Trump without making Pres. Trump fans too mad.
Pres. Biden - Haven't heard what he has said on the subject.

I'm sorry, I was unclear.
I was referring to DeSantis' comment about how he would be in a world of hurt had he taken classified documents off-site. He was, as you point out, referring to Trump.
Why didn't he comment on Pence and Biden?
-
He did comment on Pence and Biden in that same quote…
@taiwan_girl @George-K is referencing the fact that we have discovered classified docs at both Biden’s and Pence’s homes relating to their times as VP. The Biden documents appear to be particularly troubling and even some of his own party was upset.

Pres Biden should be treated the same as Pres. Trump.

"Listless vessels"
The Trump campaign railed against Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s “listless vessel” remark over the weekend, suggesting it is a repeat of Hillary Clinton’s controversial “deplorables” comment made in 2016.
In an interview with The Florida Standard, ..., DeSantis made a comment in reference to Republicans supporting former President Trump, calling them “listless vessels.”

Yet another malapropism from DeSantis that Ramaswamy would never commit. "Listless vessel" does work as language, but I think the phrase "listing vessel" was in his head and he made the jump to "listless vessel".
We must defend our democracy against the existential threat of malapropisms. I am terrified of DeSantis.

I once accidentally suggested in a management meeting that we needed to create a suppository of knowledge to help with training of new hires. When you make as many bad jokes as I do, nobody is ever quite sure whether it was intentional, but the fact that I corpsed through much of the rest of the meeting kind of gave it away.
