The Sunshine State governor made a similar comment recently when he warned that Maine's ruling disqualifying Trump 'opens up Pandora's box'

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has revealed that he's "looking" into ways to block President Joe Biden from the 2024 primary ballot in Florida.

"This is just going to be a tit for tat and it's just not gonna end well," the GOP presidential candidate warned Friday alongside Rep. Chip Roy, R-TX, according to a video posted by CNN. "You could make a case — I'm actually looking at this in Florida now [if we] could we make a credible case" to block Biden from the ballot "because of the invasion of 8 million."

god this is going to be such a stupid year

No, it’s gonna be a stupid decade or even longer. And it’s already been going on for a while. Thats what you get when for years you ignore a dysfunctional education system and promote idiotism. It doesn’t vanish over night and finds its way into public discord. Then it’s years of not strong enough responses to totalitarian practices and you get another fascist italy or nazi germany.

Trump tried to overthrow the government and he is still allowed to run for president. Im just hoping the title of a history book chapter describing this will not be “causes for 3rd world war”, but I’m not optimistic.

Nope, we’re still deep in proxy war territory. Why ruin your economy when you can turn a foreign country to rubble to project power?

[-] agitatedpotato@lemmy.world 10 points 9 months ago

Proxy Wars now, Climate Wars on deck.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
