    He’s garbage. Worst governor in Florida history. As bad as Rick Scott was, at least he wasn’t doing idiotic culture wars with schools and Disney with taxpayers’ money. Looking at the Florida history of electing Republican governors who suck at their jobs doesn’t speak well for our educational system.

    At least for now and probably for the entire campaign another candidate has a lock on Republican primary voters motivated by hate and fear.

    Didn’t see it mentioned, but CNBC is saying Twitter failed pretty spectacularly ….

    “Musk’s comment came in between crashes, feedback glitches and audio failures that prevented the conversation on Twitter’s Spaces feature from beginning for at least 25 minutes after its scheduled 6 p.m. ET start time. Musk and investor David Sacks, an ally of both men, started a new Twitter Spaces webcast after the original one failed.”

    Not only that but it wasn’t even the lead story on the evening news. He got bumped by Tina Turner.

    I can see Musk reducing resource availability just to see Meatball crash and burn just for the memes.

    I think if I were a conspiracy theorist I’d be more likely to believe that someone on team Trump persuaded Musk to have this happen. But I’m not a conspiracy theorist.

    For the record, I am now 0-2 for this cycle - to add to my overall abysmal record over the last 7 years. I thought Biden would not run & I thought Bootsie would not run. I now will go on record to predict a Trump victory. It's a long shot, but losers like me go for long shots in later races (horse race analogy). Dems bending over to help Trump IMO.

    So according to the Twitter "launch," Rhonda Santos's campaign slogan, to outdo MAGA, will be our Great American Comeback.

    GAC. I think GAG would be more like it. Our Great American Goofball.
