Re:DeSantis's stunt

I thought Republicans hate communism. I guess the only thing they hate more than communism are the people fleeing it.

1. Kidnapped, this is worse than a stunt.

Example of a repug following der leader with a one upmanship thumbing their noses at our justice department and the rule of law... The rule of law is a joke anymore

2. "'A new low': What some Miami Venezuelans think of migrants taken to Martha's Vineyard"

"When Maria Corina Vegas took the stand in Downtown Doral Park, she moved her hands up and down the Venezuelan flag in front of her. 'Where would this city be if not for the blood, sweat and tears of the Venezuelan immigrants?' she said."

"Miami-based immigration activists gathered at the park Thursday to denounce Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration flying two planes full of asylum seekers, including 50 Venezuelans, to Martha’s Vineyard. The governor’s decision comes a week after he promised the Cuban and Venezuelan communities in Miami that he would not send refugees out of the state."

4. I'm glad it's being referred to as a "stunt" by much of the media.

Hopefully, they will also start reporting all of the sordid details, such as the fact that they're exploiting people who are fleeing communism. Also the means by which they got these people onto their planes and buses.

6. Stunt equals attention

MSM calling it a stunt, but covering it anyways!

It seemed to be all anyone was talking about yesterday. Kicked Joe's rail rescue right off the headlines.

So, Desantis got what he wanted. I'm sure this was a national grab at exposure for his all-but-certain presidential bid.

9. The connotation of "stunt" is negative.

Sure, it got DeSantis some attention, but it's mostly not the good kind.

5. DeSantis is one evil fascist asshole and a sociopath. I hope people are realizing what he's made of!

If Trump was bad, DeSantis is Trump on major steroids, and DeSantis is smart.

Giddy like a bully.
