Debbie Mucarsel-Powell taking on Fraudster Rick Scott 2024

At least she's not like the thief who stole a couple hundred million from Medicare

 

You have to think being the only guy in Washington who won't stop talking about "sunsetting" social security isn't smart when you are from a state known for retirees ... can't imagine why Florida keeps voting for this guy.

 

I'll believe a Democrat can win a high stakes election in Florida once it happens, and not a moment sooner.

That said, I have a very short list of politicians I like less than Rick Scott. The dude is an absolute scoundrel. Made his millions defrauding the American people through Medicare billing scams, then turned around and used the money and connections that money helped buy to launch himself into the ultimate grift: government office.

 

Good luck to her. She’s going to need it.

 

Rick Scott is near the bottom of the barrel in terms of candidate quality, but since he will have an R next to his name he has to be the favorite

 

Good luck to her but I've given up on Florida. Loved growing up there but it's become a mean, dumb, ugly place. Last time I moved away was right after Lawton passed away. The political leadership has been in a downward spiral for two decades. I'll go long enough to see a Gator game, visit family or attend a funeral but that's it.

 

Wish her enough luck to beat the (P)rick.
I never got over his deposition in the fraud investigation of his company. He invoked the 5th amendment 75 times, squirmed throughout and couldn't look his questioner in the eye. Total sleaze weasel.

 

Oh cool. A pro abortion fascist is running for office. That’s unexpected.

 

The question will be how much the Florida electorate has changed and whether the 2022 election represented a significant red shift or just a smaller red shift and rather unique circumstances about that election cycle and Democratic turnout

 

Scott will win by at least 5 points.

 

Every election he has had in FL has been razor thin, but he has won em all. Don't think he ever got 50% in his gov races but still won.

And they say crime doesn't pay.

 

You’re referring to the reimbursement issues from his days with HCA.
Didn’t every hospital abuse the gray areas of reimbursement back then?

 

No

 

Never heard of her before now, but she has my cell number and has been spamming me.

 

HCA was fined for multiple felonies and almost $2B, that's with a B which was a record at the time. That's well beyond any gray area. Scott who was the CEO refused to answer any questions, taking the 5th.

Another white collar criminal that got away with it, but amazingly it seems his supporters don't care.

 

If you watch the deposition it’s the most transparently deceitful performance ever. His pupils roll so far up in the corners of his eyes I thought they’d jump out.
