    He’s what more Republican politicians should be like.

    Yep, in today's gop, if you fail to sufficiently and enthusiastically kiss Trump's ass, you get branded a RINO in spite of what your policy positions may be.

    Politician does PR after he violated his students' rights. Sasse hasn't actually delivered on defending free speech at UF, but he'll talk a big game. That's what politicians do.

    What in his voting past makes him a Republican in name only?

    You'll have to forgive Rick. He's gone off his rocker, and that's really saying something. He just called the speaker of the house a leftist just a few days ago for giving our allies aid.

    Which specifically of UF’s time, place and manner restrictions are unconstitutionally unreasonable and violative of the protester’s rights to free speech or free assembly?

    No disruption and no threats are vague and overbroad. Threatening three-year suspensions for sleeping, "unmanned" signs, setting up chairs to sit in, and littering is undoubtedly not consistent with how UF normally handles those issues, demonstrating that they're engaging in selective enforcement based on viewpoint.

    @Gatorrick22 has a very unique and personal definition of RINO that the residents of Earth 1 do not share.

    If I give you a funny will you please block me? I refuse to block anyone. I love me some 5th grade humor, but you seem like a stalker.

    DeSantis is just not good when things are scripted (for the media as a politician). But he is as good as it gets with the reality of the job and off the cuff remarks.

    There is a reason so many on the left here fear DeSantis.

    The trump vote I am sure. I disagree with Sasse on that one. But we will never agree with every vote or decision. At least it is very unlikely.

    "You don't get to take over the whole university. People don't get to spit at cops," Sasse said.
    "You don't get to barricade yourselves in buildings. You don't get to disrupt somebody else's
    commencement. We don't allow protests inside.

    I’m an independent,too. But the question though, , is what is a “Republican” these days. I don’t think they know themselves …

    DeSantis cannot control his hate and craving for vengeance and retribution. If he governed with a healthy dose of Xanax, he might be tolerable.

    While we disagree a lot on the idea DeSantis has a craving for hate and vengeance. I appreciate our discourse and attempt to relay our thoughts.

    Appreciate your fair disagreement!

    That guy hates you and by association I’d guess me as well. Winning!

    I get tired of the funny notifications. At first it was amusing, now it’s a bit frightening
