But he's every bit as much authoritarian would-be martinet as Trump.

He's a younger, smarter, but less clever, clone of Trump

He will dress the role sooner rather than later. He and Abbott are in a race (no pun intended) to be Hitler.

Eight Times Ron DeSantis "Accidentally" Did Racist Stuff

JERRY IANNELLI
Miami New Times, SEPTEMBER 4, 2018

After enough racism scandals involving a particular political candidate, you'd think everyone might just admit that person is simply racist. Yet a whole lot of people — from bad-faith conservative pundits to easily fooled reporters — continue offering excuses for Republican gubernatorial candidate Ron DeSantis' infamous statement on Fox News that Andrew Gillum would "monkey... up" Florida.

SNIP…

1. He spoke at a Muslim-bashing event alongside Milo Yiannopoulos and Steve Bannon.

SNIP…

2. He called New York candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who is a Puerto Rican woman, "whatever she is."

SNIP…

3. He defended a supporter who said "bring back the hanging tree."

SNIP…

4. He was moderator of a Facebook group that was a haven for racist memes and was run by lunatics.

SNIP…

5. He proudly associated himself with Sebastian Gorka, who has ties to a Hungarian far-right group that collaborated with the Nazis.

CONTINUES…
