The question is not whether DeSantis engaged in the kinds of behaviors that Gaetz did (presumably he didn't, though others close to him may have)_, but rather whether he rejects such behaviors wholeheartedly and timely...what did he know and when did he know it and what did he do in response?
Probably the best thing in that article for DeSantis was that the reporter says that his wife "cooled" to Gaetz some time ago...but did DeSantis make common cause with Gaetz despite knowing how much of a POS he is?
IMO, DeSantis is far less of a POS than Gaetz, but he's definitely in the same camp ideologically, and is just as willing to take positions designed to inflame a racist, nativist base voter. White supremacist at his core, but clothed in ways designed to be appealing more broadly. Smarter too.

Today’s standard issue Democrat or media lackey isn’t much different than yesterday’s Soviet party enforcers. Guilty until proven guilty!!!
The article says: “There is no indication that DeSantis is tied to the federal probe of Gaetz”.
Let’s speculate anyway!
No indication YET. Stay tuned. Methinks there is more to come given how close these two have been. Have you looked at Ron’s Venmo account? Or does he use cash?
All it will take is one teeny tiny connection to toxic Matt and Ron’s career is toast.

In my experience, people who associate with POSs usually do POS things themselves.
BTW, Mrs. Ron “cooled” to Gaetz? Why was she ever “warm” to that creep?

The Babylon Bee channels MDLax every day. It’s poetry in real time.
“Racism is our lifeblood, it's what we live to talk about every single day," said CNN President Jeff Zucker. "We work diligently to find it everywhere we can-- and when we can't find it, we must create it. This year, we are redoubling our efforts to bathe the American public in racial resentment until everyone is living in despair and agrees how terrible our country is!"
"It's an important service we provide for the people," he continued.

Yeah, but my money is that these guys were attracted to one another because they're both white supremacist, Trumpist climber POS, not that they're both dogging much younger women or paying for sex on the sly. Of course, that may be wrong.
The wife appears to be in the same category as hubby, aspirational for power and fame, though she has charted a more inclusive path for her own role in their joint branding story. I'd give her a plus mark for that effort. Hard to know how much is genuine, versus politically savvy, but if it were not for hubby, we'd not be questioning it. But then there's hubby.

I don’t know what POS things Ron DeSantis has done with Matt Gaetz, but my money says he’s done some. I suspect we will learn in time. Did Mrs. Ron live in DC the two years the frat brothers both served in Congress together or did she stay in Florida with her children?
It appears Mattie boy has been a lot closer to Saint Ron than Ron’s “presidential exploratory committee” would like.

I get most of my daily laughs now from this website’s FLP’ers and their blinding hypocrisy! It’s so great. The funny part is they don’t realize how predictable they are.

Hunter Biden was and is a private citizen. POS Gaetz is a member of Congress, at least for the time being. Ron DeSantis is running for president.
Now do you see the difference?

I didn’t realize ‘desantis is running for President’! You should let him know!
His constant refrain to guys like njbill:

(Hunter has it made! He gets to leverage his President father to get board roles for Ukrainian energy companies when he doesn’t know the first thing about energy, but njbill says we can’t investigate anything because he’s not his dad!).

Well first of all, certain posters on this board discussed Hunter Biden ad nauseum him last fall. Interestingly the media outlets that claimed they had “Hunter Biden’s” laptop never allowed the legitimate media to examine it for authenticity. Seems to tell you something, doesn’t it?
Gee, Pete, you’ve been telling us for quite some time now that governor God is running for president. Either Ron was lying in that article or you aren’t as connected as you have made us think you are.

I don't see why the trolls get apoplectic about Hunter...it's not as if there wasn't an investigation looking for dirt on him to damage his dad. I mean, what was Rudy doing over there?

Best statement I've seen on this:
“Matt Gaetz is everything the Republicans were looking for in Hunter Biden.”

If I was a juror, I’d vote to convict based strictly on the length of the defenses summation. Jeebus.
On the other hand, I want to see Democrats burn down their cities.
This is a really tough call.

I may have missed it, but did either side bring up CV-19 as a contributing/protentional factor? Floyd did say he just recovered from CV-19 and we have all seen the x-rays and continuing effects of the lungs/heart post CV-19.
