    If you say something even remotely negative about DeSantis it's like a swarm of little gnats nipping at your ankles. So cute.

    There is one poster here who is notable only for his post it should be “flat illegal” to call him a racist.:):p:p

    I proceeded to call DeSatan a fascist, racist, sadistic, midget bigot, and he had a cow. Especially the midget part. Haven’t heard from him since I hope he didn’t stroke out.

    Hopefully, Newsom will expose DeSantis (and the GQP in general) for the authoritarians they are.

    If Newsome were a beer he would be a bud light. He'd suck.

    I said I'm not a fan. Doesn't mean the dude can't debate his ass off. It's a skill some people have, nothing more. He'll embarrass DeSantis.

    Hopefully, Gavin Newsom fanboys will learn how to spell his last name.

    Taking away personal freedom in exchange for DeSantis' authoritarian "freedom" is fascist hypocrisy 101.

    Your meeting with Newsome before your post here was captured on video. Sorry.

    When you've got nothing worthwhile to say, you stoop to personal insults. Got it.

    He’s also starting to communicate in memes and gifs. It’s a safe bet for him. DeSatan should adopt the tactic as speaking doesn’t seem to be working for him.

    This is such a function of media hype. I spent several days in Oregon and several in the SF Bay Area a week or so ago. It was gorgeous and the places I went I didn’t run into any (or very few) homeless. It is true that it is comparatively expensive as hell, but right now Texas is unlivable with the heat.

    As to the cost of their utilities, yes they are higher per kw hr but due to their climate their consumption is less.

    I suspect going forward in the summer I’ll either be traveling overseas or to the west coast.

    This debate is pretty clever for Newsom. If Biden were to bow out, or something where to happen health wise, he positions himself as the alternative. Otherwise he positions himself as the 2028 lead, assuming he does well. Watching Newsom on Hannity he was quick on his feet. Desantis is pretty wooden.

    I assume Desantis is doing this because at this point he has to pull a rabbit out of a hat if he is going to overcome his massive deficit behind Trump. It’s a bit of a desperation move.

    You didn’t mention Trump dying, but he’s also Any Minute. So I guess the Long Con is still in play.

    Okay, so California tries to provide for them, thus they can keep them, and you get to keep up your rant about California.

    I see you avoided the second and most important question. It's obvious why. It's been my observation that a lot of people are too ashamed to admit they really don't give a damn about the least among us - the homeless, the mentally ill, etc.

    Winning governorship in Florida isn’t difficult if you’re a Republican. You could roll out a corpse and people would vote for him in this state simply because he has an R in his name. No way you’re an actual lawyer, lol.
