Not Even One Day Before the Republicans Turn Into A-Holes: The DeSantis Story

Well that escalated quickly.

Florida’s Republican gubernatorial nominee Ron DeSantis said that voters shouldn’t “monkey this up” by voting for Andrew Gillum, his Democratic opponent, who is black.

As the Miami Herald notes: Using “monkey” language to demean a black man is the oldest trick in the bigot’s bible, and DeSantis is no stranger to such things.

(exhale)

WHAT THE EVER-LOVING HELL IS THIS, FLORIDA REPUBLICANS???

Less than a day. NOT EVEN ONE FUCKING DAY, and already the Republican Party is dropping the dog whistle of racism for the BULL HORN of in-your-face bullshit.

And unless enough Florida voters rise up to stand against this bullshit, DeSantis is going to be the next in a long line of bad Republicans doing a bad job running this state.

Support Andrew Gillum here.

Get these goddamn racists out of OUR government.
