    I also mentioned the current White House or do you consider them fringe too? And I left the other party because their "platform" led by the orange buffoon was not accomplishing what I voted for.

    Try again.

    It doesn't matter who the REP is that will run in 24, the far left will label that person "worse than trump". The left has done it with every candidate in the past 4 elections.

    Also, weren't these same people the ones who were for lockdowns and school closures? Yeah, once you see how stupid those choices were, it's easy to ignore anything from those "folks".

    So I guess we’ll wait for you guys to help us decide on a worthy pub candidate. Since you’re clearly smarter than half the country. You are a real piece of work.

    Ok cool. A few years from now no one is going to want to hear you groveling about how terrible a leader DeSantis is lol. Although I must give you credit for your acknowledgment that Trump was bad, that’s something a lot of folks don’t have the courage to do.

    Since you ended your post with "We're pRoGrESsIvE" That is obviously your focus. What platform does DeSantis give you that allows you to ignore his punitive big government stance?

    Tilly favors socialized healthcare and gun control. He's certainly not getting that from DeSantis. And Tilly wants to ban abortion, but he's not going to get that from DeSantis either. But what he is getting is DeSantis owning the pRoGrESsIvEs, and I guess that's the most important thing.

    This is just more woke BS. It's not biblical and it is not historical. It is wokeism run amok by people like you who can't show they have a basic understanding of biology.

    This is exactly why this crap can't be allowed in our schools and why parents are right to have stood up to the woke falsehoods being promoted to our children in the schools. It's a religion, a false religion, and it should be banned from all schools in all states just like other religions.

    Again, thank you Governor DeSantis.

    How do you believe sex is defined biologically?

    How can you not see the human species exists with males and females? There is no it. What else said will it take for you to understand this simple fact of life as I already stated above?

    If religions should be banned from all schools, what's the point of referencing the Bible here?

    Which category do you put a person with a penis and ovaries? What about someone with XX chromosomes and testes? A person with ovaries and testes?

    Rare, so why is this a subject for our children?

    Differences in sex development (DSD) is a group of rare conditions involving genes, hormones and reproductive organs, including genitals.

    Seek help if you are of an age to know the difference, but it doesn't change the fact that you are either a male or a female. Anything beyond that is personal preference. Don't push your preferences in our schools. Leave the children alone!

    Voting, drinking, driving, and military service all have minimum ages. Changing a child's sex can be done at any age and without consultation or parental permission in blue states. This is completely screwed up in the heads of people pushing this woke BS on society. It is evil to the core.

    So full of fail. Numerous times you and Desantis have been asked and FAILED to show where in Fl. this was taught in k-3. Zilch. As usual, high on rhetoric... zero evidence. Then. please elaborate how "It's not biblical and it is not historical." has ANY scientific bearing at all, since you brought up "have a basic understanding of biology." We'll wait.... but again probably uselessly. Sigh

    Rare is different from doesn't exist. Biologically, while rare, there are a couple hundred thousand people in the US who didn't fit the comforting binary definition of sex.

    I would be quite happy if the Republican Party stopped leaning into anti-democratic and illiberal values. I don't expect the Republican Party to be progressive, just like I don't expect the Democratic Party to be conservative. But your MAGA party is acting insane. And Ron DeSantis is just as anti-democratic, illiberal, and extreme as the others.

    But I fully expect you to continue to ignore that because he's the only alternative to Trump, and you badly want an excuse to vote for a Republican.

    is weaponizing the IRS to attack your political enemies a good thing

    is relieving elected officials that don't agree with you a good thing

    is trying to pass unconstitutional laws just to be shot down by the courts a good thing

    is appointing unqualified judges to supreme court just because they agree with you a good thing

    DeSantis is just as bad as Trump. People tried to tell you about DT and you dismissed them and now you are being told about DeSantis and turning a willful blind eye again

    The reason we can't get moderate pubs with good governiship skill sis because moderate pubs continue to support radical pubs. You are part of the problem whether you want to realize it or not.
