Miami Herald: ‘Why won’t DeSantis condemn neo-Nazi demonstration outside GOP event in Tampa?’
Miami Herald ^ | Jul 25 2022 | Miami Herald Editorial Board

Posted on 07/26/2022 4:09:42 PM PDT by rintintin

Neo-Nazi demonstrators in Florida climbed out from under their rock again on Saturday, this time outside a major Republican conference, Turning Point USA’s Student Action Summit, held in Tampa. They put their hate-filled ideology on full and repugnant display, waving flags with swastikas and white-supremacist SS bolts, hoisting placards with anti-Semitic slurs. And somewhere in the mix of demonstrators, a “DeSantis Country” flag was unfurled. A spokesman for Turning Point USA, a right-wing student group, disavowed the hate mongers. “Turning Point 100% condemns these ideologies in the strongest of terms,” Andrew Kolvet said. He said his group didn’t know who the demonstrators were or why they were there.

There’s no mystery here. The lineup for the conference included Gov. Ron DeSantis, Republican Reps. Matt Gaetz, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert and, as the crowning touch, Josh Hawley, the Missouri senator now best known for egging on the Jan. 6 rioters with a fist pump and then running away from the crowds attacking the U.S. Capitol. Among the topics of conversation at the conference: denying the existence of transgender people, anti-COVID vaccine rhetoric and the continuation of the lie that the 2020 election was stolen.

It’s too bad the Turning Point spokesperson treated these “Nazis” like the real thing instead of actors -probably Democrat activists in my suspicion - meant to embarrass Desantis and the conservative event

Interesting that the media didn’t show any interest in finding out who these “Nazis” are in real life.

Translation:

“We set up some paid ‘protesters’ to look like Nazis, so why won’t you condemn them?”

Any idiot doing that should go down.

If it can be tied to SOROS or the DNC, there should be
criminal charges brought for defamation.

Why won’t the Miami Herald condemn Black Lives Matter and the Democratic destruction of our Republic?

It was a laughably-obvious setup.

DeSantis and the rest of the Conservative movement are not
involved with this nonsense.

We don’t go after people based on race. We go after them
based on what they do that is outside the law.

This is political bias to the extreme.

1: They’re plants. The only question is whose. Yours? The democrats? The FBI’s?
2: DeSantis is not your puppet where you get to compel him to verbally condemn anyone or anything.

“It’s too bad the Turning Point spokesperson treated these “Nazis” like the real thing...”

It’s too bad you don’t know how to read.

“He said his group didn’t know who the demonstrators were or why they were there.”
