The name of this super PAC? The deliciously ironic “Never Back Down.”
It’s impressive how quickly this dude’s campaign crashed and burned. Fuck em.
So many rich people’s money just to crash and burn away on such bizarre politicians.
Hopefully, the lesson they learned is to not support a closeted fascist in a democracy.
Hopefully…
The 2025 plan doesn’t make me hopeful that this is the end of fascists in our politics. It’s all of the Republican candidates, and RFK jr
His campaign is pretty much funded by one guy, who’s lost tens of millions. DeSantis might be forced to pull the plug before the first primary.
Closeted?
Because he was sponsored by a handful of rich people who now realize his “anti-woke” campaign hasn’t tricked enough people into ignoring his terrible policies.
If you think that people dislike him because of his policies, then you haven’t met many republicans. They know very little about policies, any policies. They just want someone to hurt the people they deem scary and dangerous. Aka, liberals, trans people, drag queens, etc. And then they want that person to have charisma and “tell it like it is.” DeSantis fits the bill on the first account but he has no charisma, just none. If he was more charismatic and direct, they would like him way better.
The man who should have his job had to be revived from an overdose when his male escort called 911, and anyone crammed into that seedy hotel room would be a more competent and law-abiding governor. If only for being less of a thin-skinned fascist.
I hear he pried prisoners fingernails off at gitmo, and then he’d eat them
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign, has ceased its door-knocking operations in Nevada, home to a key early nominating contest, and California, a delegate-rich Super Tuesday state, officials confirmed Wednesday.
The decision to fold its door-knocking operations in Nevada and some Super Tuesday states coincides with DeSantis’ rough summer, which has featured him struggling to gain traction against the GOP front-runner, former President Donald Trump, since launching his campaign in late May.
In recent weeks, some of those who were assigned to the areas where there are cuts were offered opportunities elsewhere, including on door-knocking teams stood up by the super PAC in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina — early nominating states where the pro-DeSantis allies continue to knock on doors — officials said.
“We want to reinvest in the first three,” Erin Perrine, a spokesperson for the super PAC, told NBC News, nodding to Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina and noting that it is ramping up its spending on advertising.
What’s more, super PAC officials said the decisions to pull out of Nevada and California were driven by what they see as pro-Trump efforts to tilt the primary rules in his favor and make it less likely that a rival could knock him off.
Perrine described this change as “making grassroots involvement impossible” and called it a “Trump-inspired rigging,” though she expressed some hope that the state party could alter the rule at its convention in September — during which both Trump and DeSantis are scheduled to speak.
