Florida Ron can’t deal with a campaign and a failing lawsuit at the same time, and he wants to run the country?
If I learned anything from the 2016 US presidency it’s that anyone can be the president of that country.
Not anyone. You have to be rich.
You have to either be rich, or run enough grift on a regular basis to appear rich, by sticking other people with the bills.
I asked my fox loving roommate how ron could “handle china” if he can’t handle disney, he cares way too much about that stuff for someone living in canada
I’m going to try this next time anyone takes legal action against me. “Sorry, I’ve moved on. Get over it.”
Sounds like someone hears the find out train a comin after they’ve been fucking around on the tracks.
“Now that this is yet another boat anchor of my own making weighing me down, I’d like to move on and forget it. Let bygones be bygones.”
As little as I like Disney, I hope they seriously throw the book at him. HARD.
Not how it works, Ronny.
“I’m losing and it’s hurting my campaign please back off!”
“it’s just a prank”
That’s not how that works.
“Your honor, I object!”
“On what grounds?”
“It’s devastating to my campaign!”
“Overruled.”
“Good call.”
I was gonna fuck you guys hard, but now it looks like I’m losing… shit guys call it even lol?

That’s like saying Ukraine should just “move on” from the Russian invasion or that those of us who fled rexxit should just “move on” from the API injustices. Just because you’re comfortable in or tired of defending your position, that doesn’t mean any of the rest of us have settled.
I do think people should move on from the reddit api stuff. We all get it reddit sucks it’s why we are here. Do we need to always have threads talking about it? We’ve left already.
Yeah the Florida law is still in effect until it’s been fully reviewed by the courts. There is not a moving on so long as the underlying law remains. In this whole thing DeSantis is attempting to place himself as having this outsized role.
The reality is that the legislative branch of Florida feels a need to target companies at the behest of the governor. And the matter of law is that, no you can’t just pick on companies for saying your law is shit.

And Disney would be fucking stupid to just stop now especially after that kind of comment that is quite literally a confession to a violation of their first amendment right. If this is the rationale for the law against Disney then, yes, there’s zero ways the law is Constitutional.
The guy has fucked himself in terms of running for president and this lawsuit will absolutely decimate any legacy for his Governorship of Florida. The GOP has a tendency to only put up with useful idiots, and this man’s utility is about to have run its course. I’ll credit DeSantis in that at least he’s smart enough to know he’s about to receive a swift boot to his ass from his political party. Combine with him making himself a pariah in pretty much every other political circle, he better hope that savings nest egg lasts him long enough for his mea culpa to play out and perhaps get him some low level job commenting on Fox.
Lol this guy is so bad at social interaction, Fox won’t touch him. He is a meme of social failure.
