On the surface less batshit but inside he habors the same militant fetish as his potential boss. This is the man who created his own election police force who showed up to citizens' doors intimidating voters against the abortion ballot initiative. He'd have no problem following marital law edicts.
A sign of things to come...he will fire anyone that he suddenly takes a disliking to... his administration will be unable to do business because of constant disruptions.... hopefully he'll be a lame duck and get kicked out.
He’s draining the Freedumb Caucus and other MAGA’s in Governorships.
You know, if DeSadist doesn’t take the job maybe Gym Jordan will. As a wrestling coach, he brings great experience to heading the Department of Defense! 🙄
Desantis would bring great harm to the LGBTQ community.
We must stand strong and push back on Republicans controlling our personal lives. #lgbtq #transrights
It’s a tradeoff. If DeSantis appoints Lara Trump to replace Rubio’s Senate seat, then donnie will make Ronnie defense secretary. No worries though, donnie will screw him over later.
DeSantis is equally unqualified but at least sober. I guess by taking him out of the running for a Senate appointment it clears the way for the even more unqualified daughter in law to get appointed as a quid pro quo from DeSantis
The first thing JD Vance should do is parade DeSantis down the halls of congress where they all lock their doors to signal zero support. Within 24 hours he'll withdraw.
As much as I can't stand the man and he's a horrible pick, I'd say he's probably a step up from the first choice. Plus, I live in FL and would love to see him gone from here.
Also a Florida resident and would love to see him gone. Not saying he is a great choice but better than Hegseth, and has his own ambitions so not a Maga Hat. A real jerk/bully though.
One hopefully good thing about desantis running defense is that if a crisis brakes out he probably would be too scared of going to prison or losing the chance to ever be president to back a trump coup
I'm certainly no fan, but it's the kind of pick I'd expect from a conventional republican, so I'll take it over the current nominee, which would only be picked by an insane person. I was hoping he'd go with Joni Ernst, which given the universe of people he's picking from would have been better.
Biden need to start in with the Pardons NOW
Dump is on the prowl
Here's Hoping Biden Pardons a slew of people starting with Jack Smith---and ALL trumps adversaries
just so trump
can NOT MESS with them....
EVER...
wish someone could tell Biden this
DeSantis, who thinks he's the conservative version of Lionel Kaffee, was a JAG officer at GITMO and he has never come clean about his actions in regards to forced feeding prisoners.
I'm always amazed at the so called news reports...those posted by National Media sources and then followed up by YOU TUBE commentators...each and every one of them rehashes the same tripe. Not one leaves the wagging dog...THE TALE SEEMS TO BE MORE APPEALING !
Kinda like to see him out of Florida. Defense may limit his scope to push his “anti-woke” agenda (unless he plans to deem any he identifies as “woke” nations as terrorist organizations).
Hear me out. SecDef is temporary, trump would fire him in 1 year. But has anyone asked DeSantis if he even wants the job? He has no job after the governorship ends in 2026, he was going to run for Rubio's seat anyway in '28.

The special election to fill Rubio's seat isnt until 26. But it's an appointment until then. Now he can be appointed Senator & he'll already be sitting in the job for the 26 election as incumbent(?). He would probably win.
Then the reg election is in 28. Casey wants him to have a permanent job.

And I was worried @nytpitchbot.bsky.social would eventually run out of reasons to joke about the real winner of [insert recent competition here], Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
Can’t wait to see him in his high heeled boots at an international summit of top defense ministers. Nothing about the man is serious except his addiction to petty power.

push for his nomination.

Thank you to the 2 billionaire immigrants who help tRump get in office.
Back to the last century with military.
How will the approximately 3,000,000 DEF employees feel about DeSatan's go-go boots?
Another quid quo pro if I ever saw one
