It's going to be chilly in the panhandle tonight, so my governor has declared a state of emergency.

But I think that might be just an excuse.

WHEREAS, an area of low pressure moving across the Gulf of America, interacting with Arctic air, will bring widespread impactful winter weather to North Florida beginning Tuesday, January 21, 2025; and

I think he just wanted Florida to be the first state to officially recognize the newly renamed Gulf of America.

Only the US government and maga goons will call it the Gulf of America. Everyone else will continue to use the other name.

"Hey, Mr. Trump! Did you see what I did, Mr. Trump? I called it 'The Gulf of America' just like you told me to, Mr. Trump! You an' me, we're pals, right, Mr. Trump?"

It's easy to forget, but DeSantis tried running for president already. Nobody cared. He got called "Meatball Ron" until he dropped out.

I don't think his shtick works outside Florida. It's different down here.

I'm very much in agreement, although I do wonder how DeSantis's efforts might have worked if he wasn't actively campaigning against Trump. Trump changes everything.

It doesn't actually. Trump has some rare ass charisma that allows him to avoid everything. DeSantis on the other hand is as slimy as they come and doesn't bother to hide it outside of the Florida swamps.

Ironbite-hence why even if he wasn't going up against Trump, he wasn't gonna be the nominee.

Who else would have been? Or are we assuming that someone who didn't run, would have done?

Remember, DeSantis used to be far more popular than he is today.


(Or, to put it another way, everything you just said about DeSantis also applies to Trump. That "rare ass charisma" you cite is just our collective best response to "how on earth does Trump get away with being as slimy as they come and not bothering to hide it?")

The man is still alive. Somehow.

If anyone here's thinking about trying a healthier diet this year, apparently it's never too late.
