Massive HP

A attention-seeking, overrated jerk who's more interested in his brand as tough guy that permanently owns the libs but never really worked to solve actual problems.

I fundamentally disagree here as I think DeSantis is actually implementing conservative policies across the board , it’s just that in todays landscape anything a politician will do will “trigger” someone nowadays . There is a reason why much of the old gop guard in Florida including Jeb Bush likes DeSantis a lot while they do not like Trump .

His 'policies' are nothing more than right wing virtue signaling.

Major HP.

I don't even get the hype, which is primarily a media thing. Dude has accomplished little other than triggering Dems. I guess that's why some GOPers like him.

Considering Trump accomplished almost nothing other than triggering Dems, and the GOP literally didn’t even have a platform in 2020 beyond owning the libs, yeah that’d be it.



Policy wise this isn’t true :


- We passed the most sweeping tax reform bill since 1986

- Trump gutted federal agencies regulatory powers with him requiring them to remove 2 regulations every time they implement a new one

- Replaced Dodd Frank

- Replaced NAFTA with USCMA

- Redefined our relationship with China

- Stay in Mexico Policy when it comes to immigration

- Middle Eastern Nation Treaties


Sure most of these were through executive action but that is more due to the senate 60 vote rule


“Most sweeping tax reform” = Most sweeping tax break for the ultra rich 1%



Not really given it cut individual rates by a lesser amount than the Bush tax rates . Also the tax bill had many provisions that benefited average people such as:

- Doubling the Child Tax Credit

- Doubled the Standard Deduction

- Allowing Small Business Owners to deduct up to 20% of their Qualified Business Income . The deduction phases out as well so this mostly helps the middle class across the board


The only part I didnt like was Paul Ryan's Border Adjustment Tax wasnt included in the final bill but otherwise it was a great bill(I agree with the corporate tax cuts as well)

So, you supported massively increasing the budget deficit before now claiming that you oppose it.
