yeah I was honestly terrified that starting 2024 we were just fucking doomed, but now it seems like things are finally looking up. DeSantis' approval rating is in the shitter, and a lot of the anti-trans bills are being blocked throughout the country.

    DeSantis could come back if something happens to Trump. I can't believe I hope Trump doesn't succumb to all the hamburgers he consumes for a bit longer.

    DeSantis would get skullfucked in a national election. He'd go into a debate, say "woke" 300 times in twenty minutes, and immediately his poll numbers would collapse so fucking hard they take the Eastern Seaboard with it.
