In no way should that fascists beliefs or views be taken as any sort of credible source.

God forbid he gets any kind of position of political power...

Now I’m not an American, but to say he’s a leading republic candidate would be lying.

He's literally second on that list, and Trump is battling the possibility of prison.

It’s not a race where 2nd place means anything, unless you know what voters of trump will pick if they can’t choose trump.
My money is on the republicans running with trump or implode.

I'd be curious, if they lost Trump as a possible candidate, whether they'd try to go more extreme or polar opposite. Don't think it'll come to it, but..

Being in prison only keeps you from voting, not from being elected. So will be down one vote...

I wouldn’t worry to much about his “leading”… Isn’t he something like 40 points behind Trump?

DeSantis has the intelligence of a drunk rock.

Desantis is highly intelligent. He knows exactly what's he's doing. He's a politician and a bureaucrat. Knowing all of this makes him a much worse piece of shit than you think he is.
