A member of the press on Sunday trotted out the usual tactic of using Nazis to smear Republicans and conservatives during an interview with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Unfortunately for her, the strategy fell woefully flat.

 

During an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday, moderator Kristen Welker interviewed DeSantis about a series of issues. One of the topics was comments made by Florida lawmaker Randy Fine, the only Jewish Republican in the state legislature.

 

He recently penned an op-ed taking DeSantis to task for failing to adopt a stronger stance against neo-Nazi activities that had occurred in the Sunshine State. In the piece, he indicated that he would be switching his support from DeSantis to former President Donald Trump, who is currently leading the rest of the field by a healthy margin in the polls.

 

Welker brought up the issue, claiming that DeSantis had not “been nearly as vocal in opposing neo-Nazi harassment and attacks in your state as you have in opposing what you believe is support for Hamas.”

 

DeSantis responded, saying that Fine was “just trying to get his 15 minutes of fame” and recalled how he was “singing my praises a couple of months ago.”

DeSantis knows better. He's a lawyer, and he worked on national security cases as a JAG.

His explanation: he can ban pro-Palestinian advocacy student groups because they proved "material support" to Hamas, a terrorist group. He explained that they do this by their "words." That's moral support, not material support.

He's getting nowhere - in fact, going in the wrong direction - by playing dumb in an attempt to out-outrageous King Donald. Maybe he'd do better if he tried to present himself as a smart conservative.

Greenwald can piss everyone off.  And be mostly correct.  

 

Censorship is like ballot harvesting.   Just cause they tried or did do it.  Doesn't then make it kosher to do it yourself.  The action/support is just as wrong 

 

The first doesn't protect what we agree with, it protects what we don't agree with.

We probably disagree on most things political…but we for sure agree here. 
 

If you do the same exact thing you rail against…you are no different than them.

Liftgate - I've gotta admit that I find this hilarious. Politico analyzes Ron's boots like they're the Zapruder film.

 

Barry wore a tan suit...

LOL. that all took me back to a better time when Halloween consisted of myself dressing as Obama in a tan suit, and my wife being Hillary in a pant suit.
