I can’t believe they’re still counting voters but here we are with the new general narrative being that ‘Trump is out’. While CNN clowns shared a brief moment of relief, contributor Abdul El-Sayed revealed a greater fear than Donald Trump—Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
Poor Don Lemon looked terrified after El-Saye explained, “What I think the DeSantis playbook looks like is, competent, local, technical leadership, which, can’t take that away from him. He has competently led in terms of the fundamental basics of governing. And then a very good instinct for figuring out how to weaponize a culture war in a way that redounds to particular communities that he’s trying to pick up.”
He continued, “And so the way that he’s played a sort of fear of change when it comes to schools, for example, I think has been important in his ability to make an argument to a latino community, for example, in Miami-Dade.”
El-Saye says that while DeSantis might seem like the better choice that Democrats really need to think ahead referring to the Governor’s ability to appeal to all voters. “The last thing I want to say about this is that I worry a lot about where our country goes under DeSantis,” he said.
El-Saye also added, “I think a lot of people think that the exit of Donald Trump means that all of sudden the spell is broken. I actually see Ron DeSantis as a far more efficient version of what Donald Trump has done. And I worry a lot about the ways that it tells us that we ought to be tearing each other apart, that we cannot accept one another for who we are.”
Watch
DeSantis has not announced his intentions to run in the next presidential race and already the liberal talking heads are gearing up for panic. Meanwhile, the rest of the country is just trying to get to the end of this unusually long midterm.
