But BRTD and Politician told me the GOP wasn't racist and that Republican voters are race blind nice guy FFs who "don't give much thought" to racial issues.

I never said Republicans were nice or FF, LOL, and the comment you're taking out of context was not in regards to Florida.

[Politician]

Uh, when did I say this? I only said not all Republicans are racist, I certainly don't believe there are no racist Republicans.

Gillum, as stated before, Dems will finally win one in FL and Trump can't win without FL😀

Scott won in 2010, yet Obama won in 2012.

If things improve and Trump is seen as improving,  sure.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Trump hasnt made gains in black and Latino communities only in white and NV, CO, Va, and WI are the states Black and Latinos matter, and his approval rating is subpar and will remain, under the ethics cloud through 2020😁

[IceSpear]

I bet whoever made that ad has economic anxiety.

[Beet]

He claimed he paid for a trip to Costa Rica, but e-mails show his bill was crossed out. Gillum's response on Facebook was that it's a Republican ploy to reinforce stereotypes about "black men." I don't see how that's a counterargument. There goes three Florida Supreme Court seats and a chance at fairer redistricting of 30ish Congressional seats for the 2020s. I knew the Democrats should have nominated Graham.

Nobody will care at the end of the day because this is a pretty bogus "scandal" if you really read about it. And Gillum is playing this exactly right. With all the racist ads out there black voters will only become more fired up to turn out if they believe he's being railroaded. He'll win easily.

Black voters are a minority. It's all over CNN and Politico. He got tickets to a Hamilton show as well, and other almost certainly other stuff. His career is over. He should resign from the ticket now so there can be a write-in campaign for Gwen Graham.

Now you are just obviously trolling. "other almost certainly other stuff" doesn't even makes sense, so obviously you are trying so hard to troll you are becoming incoherent.

How? Do you think these two facts are it? There are probably file cabinets worth of stuff whoever is releasing this info is going to dump to ratf*** Gillum. The really sick thing is that he knew all this and ran for governor anyway, knowing this could come out.

Zzz.....

How long as Trump been under investigation, now?

At this point, pretty much the entire public has become desensitized

Just because it's on CNN and Politico, doesn't mean anybody actually cares about it. Remember when the MSM went absolutely nuts over that truck ad that was surely going to cause Governor Gillespie?

Indeed, nobody cares what Politico thinks at all because all it does is concern troll about how Democrats are going the way of the Whigs.

What facts? You are speculating that there is a file cabinet full of evidence based off of your opinion? DeSantis is too far behind to win at this point and this actually makes things worse for him. Attacking a black candidate like this is only going to drive black turnout up even further and also in wave years very little flips races other than actual indictments or arrests.

[Beet]

You know what? F this. I'm done posting about the 2018 elections. This election is a nightmare. Every day, whether it's Siena polls, Senate polls, the TargetSmart data, the Nevada data, there's more evidence of the R wave. Every D candidate that gets a little mojo has a scandal come out of nowhere. And when I try to post about it, all I get is people calling me a troll. I don't need this in my life. I'm sticking to the General boards from now on.

[Scottholes 2.0]

I really despise the phrase "playing the race card," which is shocking language coming from someone with a D next to their name. It's hard not for Gillum and other black politicians to "play the race card" with the prevelance of dog-whistling (and sometimes blatant racism) in politics. You just can't trust their motives anymore.

And why is "black men" in quotations?

[henster]

The current Governor ran a company that was charged with committing the largest Medicare fraud in history and is on video pledging the fifth hundreds of times. And considering Trump mountain of scandals it's comical anyone could be pretend to be outraged over this stuff.

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Lol nobody cares if Gillum wanted to go see Hamilton. This reeks to high heaven of desperation, and I don't want to see a single Florida Republican complaining about corruption when their senate candidate did exactly what henster just mentioned.
