DeSantis Campaign Folds Like a Cheap Suit


With a video message and a fake quote from Winston Churchill that actually turned out to be a line from a 1930s Budweiser beer ad campaign, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis suspended his Republican presidential campaign on Elon Musk’s far-right social media platform “X” by quoting, “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”  DeSantis concluded by stating, “It’s clear to me that a majority of Republican primary voters want to give Donald Trump another chance,” and he closed by giving Trump his full endorsement.

So, DeSantis bowed out of the race by quoting an old Budweiser beer ad?  Now, I don’t like to sound critical, but about the only person I can think of who would be impressed by an old Budweiser ad - would be Justice Brett Kavanaugh.  We all know Kavanaugh’s a guy who really likes his beer.  Ironically, DeSantis’ primary super PAC was actually named “Never Back Down.”  Better modify that to,  “We won’t back down - we’ll just quit instead.

That said, it sounds like Ron DeSantis finally “woke up” to the realization he’s not gonna be president.  Fare thee well, governor.  We knew ye far too well.  Frankly, he has no one to blame, but the “woke Marxist librarians” and Mickey Mouse.  That, and the fact his Florida nonsense just didn’t play all that well on the national level - where far too many people have an IQ above 75.  Besides, his campaign wasn’t a total loss.  It did give America a close look at what an unlikeable, bizarre, little freak of a man he really is.

All I can say is, “Cheer up, Ron!  You’re still gonna be the Benito Mussolini of Florida.”  So, I guess its back down to sunny Florida to ban more books, attack Mickey Mouse, punish women, harass healthcare workers, and round up drag queens.  Now, about the only thing left is for Nikki Haley to drop out so Trump supporters can begin claiming the 2024 election is totally rigged, months before it even takes place.  Of course, should Republicans succeed in scaring enough folks into actually electing Donald Trump, no one will ever have to worry about voting being “rigged” again, because there’ll be no more elections.

Trump Demands Constitution Be Set Aside and He Be Reinstated as President

Reacting to a Twitter post from Elon Musk who claimed Democrats violated the 1st Amendment by collaborating with big tech (Twitter), to remove tweets that featured pornographic photos of Hunter Biden during the 2020 election,” former President Donald Trump took to his Truth Social platform to demand that the United States Constitution be set aside and that he be reinstated as president.   Trump further claimed that "A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution.   Our great 'Founders' did not want, and would not condone False & Fraudulent Elections!” Now, let me get this straight, Trump wants the US Constitution to be suspended - because Twitter refused to publish photos of “Hunter Biden's junk” during that last presidential election?  The thing is Elon, Democrats weren’t even in power in 2020 - Trump was, which would make it a bit difficult for them to violate the...

Anti-Vax Newsmax Host Says Diseases are Supposed to Kill People

Conservative network Newsmax has been forced to “distance itself” from remarks uttered by host Rob Schmitt this week, who claimed that vaccines go "against nature" because diseases are "supposed to wipe out a certain amount of people,” and that vaccinations “unnaturally interfere with viruses' designs on killing people.” Wow, kinda looks like the “Schmitt” has really hit the fan over at Newsmax.  So, they want to “distance” themselves from Schmitt’s remarks, do they?  Gee, makes you wonder if the morons who run Newsmax know they actually have the option not hire anti-science nitwits like Schmitt as anchors in the first place?  Not to worry though, should Schmitt get fired, I'm sure folks like Kevin McCarthy or Rand Paul would warmly welcome him to become part of their staffs. Of course, the truth is, what Schmitt is really promoting is “Social Darwinism.”  Given that, I assume by the same logic he applies to vaccines, one may conclude that by warning people ...

2020 GOP Senate Nominee Claims the Equality Act Will ‘Illegalize’ Jesus Christ

The Equality Ac t is a bill before the United States Congress, that would simply prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex, sexual orientation and gender identity in employment, housing, public accommodations, education, federally funded programs, etc.   It doesn’t dictate what churches or religious people must believe, but that hasn’t stopped right-wing, QAnon, and flat Earth activist Lauren Witzke - the GOP’s failed 2020 Senate candidate from Delaware - from going on Alan Jones’ InfoWars and claiming that the bill will “illegalize Jesus Christ” and “categorize the Scripture as hate speech.” Well, given her stance on immigrants, I can’t imagine why she’d ever object to anyone “trying to illegalize Jesus Christ.”  I mean, by her standards - isn’t Jesus basically just another “illegal immigrant” from the Middle East?  So, what’s the problem?  Why, if you don’t believe me, then try telling some border patrol agent “but, but, I’m the son of God” - and see how far ...
