A debate with two candidates is a debate. A debate with three candidates is a debate. A debate with one candidate is a TED Talk with better lighting. And Florida Republicans deserve more than that. Voters deserve comparison. Voters deserve answers. Voters deserve a choice.

It was never this many buddy—even under the house plant. Who’d you vote for in the Republican primaries?

Whatever you gots tell yourself to sleep better at night—what actually mattered is who you voted for during the Republican primaries, & I will put money down that you voted for this. Lol

Rick Scott has executed over $340 million in stock trades while serving in the Senate, according to aggregated STOCK Act disclosures. Let that sink in. This is the same man who once ran the company behind the largest Medicare fraud case in US history, walked away with a golden

I’ll caveat this—I’m laughing at everyone who voted for this in the GOP primaries. I’m laughing at every pundit, grifter, & idiot with a mic who told me DeSantis had boots, so I had to vote for Trump. The cope coming from you cultists is really something. You’re now supporting

Floridians to @ByronDonalds: what have you done for Florida? Byron Donalds: I have gotten Donald Trump’s endorsement. Floridians: ok. But what have you done for Floridians. Byron: I have gotten Donald Trump’s endorsement. Floridians not moving in the polls & he wonders why….

I’m getting pretty tired of being gaslit by both this administration & the last. We don’t have chauffeurs or butlers filling up our tanks—we’re very much aware of what the gas prices are. Trump looks foolish. Sorry.

Trump: Gasoline now is down to close to $2 in a lot of places. A couple of places… it's like $1.98 a gallon.

The only people singing Susie Wiles’ praises are Florida RINOs & DC swamp creatures. Not one true conservative in Florida is celebrating her. If she had her way, we’d have abortion on demand, the beaches would reek of pot, & more CCP influence. She is everything conservatives

Why does it seem the people who voted for Trump are once again blaming everyone but Trump for the failures of HIS administration?

So, my husband & I have built a pretty stacked home gym, so I haven’t gone to a regular gym in a while. My co-worker asked me to start going with her to help her get back into lifting. When I lift, I look like a homeless gremlin—baggy, old clothes. I do not remember so many
