DeSantis thinks his wife should be featured in fashion magazines.

And goes on to say:

“If she were a Democrat, she’d be on every fashion magazine. They would be making her [out] to be the biggest deal. But because we’re conservative, we know that that’s not what will happen.”

Well, Governor, you are the driving force behind decisions and policies that marginalize--if not outright oppress--people across the LBGTQ+ community. Did you think there were no such folks working in the fashion industry?

The difference between the Gay folks employed by fashion magazines and the scared, vulnerable Gay kids struggling to understand themselves in your state is that the "Gays of Fashion" have careers, confidence and clout. You want your wife to be celebrated in the world of fashion and glamour? Then take a note from Randy Rainbow and start "Basking in the Splendor of All Shades and Genders."

What DeSantis and others don't seem to grasp is that the supply and demand theory of economics works in the social world of human interactions, as well. When you insult and demean large swaths of people they withhold approval from you. So don't go all pouty because the fashionistas of the world aren't embracing your wife.

Or you could try to start a Conservative-themed fashion magazine. . . I'm sure that will work out brilliantly.

Butt naked and playing around with another naked woman. So, she at least was in Max and GQ magazines but with no fashions.

When she did put on clothes for magazines and news shows her fashion taste was pretty awful. I'll never forget the one where she went to visit abused children that said I really don't care. Do U? Such a fashion statement.

The one with the alligator and the phrase “Where Woke Goes To Die.”

Casey DeSantis is a hate monger. And that makes her an ugly person.

She’s a physically attractive woman who chose to marry a dictator wannabe who seems to have endless hatred for real people, which makes me wonder about her ethics and morals.

i can't make any determination as to whether she "belongs" in fashion magazine. Has she been a model? Is she somehow a part of the fashion industry? Has she done a skimpy bikini shoot with rayguns on airplanes? I've never seen a photo of her... tempted to google it but i've gotta mow the lawn.

A psychological makeover. Personality makeover. Human spirit makeover.

These human components do show up on a face. A before and after.

After that, a follow up feature: like the old Good Housekeeping regular feature, "Can this marriage be saved?"

Can a human being be married to Ron DeSantis?

DeathSantis is delusional if he believes wannabe Disney princess wife is fashion magazine material given she’s a fascist and bigot who spews hate. Beauty is from the inside out, and she’s not beautiful.



Someone decided to have some fun with DeathSantis
