"SNIP........

Gov. Ron DeSantis said he would be “welcoming” of a measure from Congress to defund the Internal Revenue Service if he’s elected president next year, Fox News reports.

Said DeSantis: “I think the IRS is a corrupt organization and I think it’s not a friend to the average citizen or taxpayer. We need something totally different.”

......SNIP"

1. it's a constant

race to the bottom with these dickheads!

[spanone]

2. Well, ron, I guess then you'd be out of a job.

He's just another republicon bullshitter.

[Ferrets are Cool]

3. Let us know EXACTLY what you would replace it with Ronnie.

Dumbfuck.

[Diamond_Dog]

5. He has no clue.

It just sounds great to say he wants to abolish the IRS.

“No New Ideas Ron”.

[odins folly]

6. Just like everything else

Obamacare etc., they just want to remove the “problem” it would be up to someone else to develop a replacement, that will never come….

11. He'll announce his replacement plan in... don't tell me... two weeks, right? nt

15. DeSantis will replace IRS with sales tax on Disney. nt

[Takket]

4. Get rid of the IRS and you also get rid of the military. Dems should point this out.

[Matthew28]

7. This is what these anti-government idiots within his base wants

They literally want to abolish the government and live in the dark ages....They're a very real threat to this nation.

[J_William_Ryan]

8. Republicans

have contempt for sound, responsible governance.

[Shermann]

9. When Fallacy Becomes Policy

This particular fallacy is called "appeal to popularity"

[NCjack]

10. Let's do it now and figure out the replacement problem later.

12. Second verse, same as the first

So far, every Republican presidential candidate wants to ban abortion nationwide, cut taxes, either defund or eliminate the IRS, cut taxes, get rid of LGBTQ+, cut taxes, finish Trump's Wall and name it after him, cut taxes, make Christianity the mandatory religion of the US, cut taxes, get rid of porn, cut taxes, throw Hunter Biden in prison, cut taxes, try to destroy the Democratic Party, cut taxes, add to our inventory of extremist judges, cut taxes and...oh, I know I'm missing something...oh yeah, cut taxes! Except that one of them is staring down criminal prosecution in at least three jurisdictions and one of them wears dresses to work, is there any difference between them?

13. I would vote to abolish Ron DeSatan.

14. Tax the peasantry but not the royalty, the rich, or the priestly class.

Those millions of republicans want an authoritarian gov't but they mistakenly think they will be the few thousand elites actually in charge.

Those millions are useful tools for those who will actually be in charge.

One poster called it a 'new social feudalism age'.

[FakeNoose]

16. DeSantis only knows how to play to the MAGAts

He'll say pretty much anything to steal some cheap votes from Chump. That's all he's got. There's not a chance in hell he could win the nomination from the Grand Old Losers' Party.

[Initech]

17. Anyone who wants to abolish the IRS is guilty of tax fraud. Period.

Or some other egregious financial crimes that they don't want the public to know about. Fuck you, Fox News, you brought this craziness on us.
