It is long past the time that the border is militarized, mined, and declared a free fire zone.

He’s great as a gov, just not as a presidential candidate. Probably partly because his donors wanted him to do and say terrible things

Amen. It is out of control and risking American lives, time to protect our border.

He has stopped acting like a Presidential candidate and started acting like a governor again, and I for one am very glad.

I am stunned to be honest.

I didn’t know Ron had it in him.

I am waiting too.
Ron’s mistake was listening to his advisers and big donors.
He could have (and still could) start working with GOP governors with a unified message.
This is the smartest move he has made since he ignored COVID shutdown and got Cruise ships and Orlando tourism moving again.

I’m not a fan of DeSantis. But DeSantis and Texas governor Abbott deserve great credit for how they have responded to the illegal immigrant invasion.

Their efforts just might have made a difference. The squealing from the big city D mayors is evidence of that.

Should Trump return to the White House, both of those guys should get the Presidential Medal of Freedom. But if only one medal is available, give it to Abbott.

They criticized him for criticizing Disney, so this would not be beyond them.

And that photo of illegals pulled out of the river did succeed in increasing my sympathy... ...for US Citizens.

This just shows everyone that desanctimonious is still in presidential campaign mode....

Well, if desanctus thought it was so important to send Florida National Guard to the border to help Texas...

Why didn't he send thousands earlier, before at least 2-3 million illegal aliens crossed over just this past year, alone?

“Why didn’t he send thousands earlier, before at least 2-3 million illegal aliens crossed over just this past year, alone?”

Because he couldn’t as Texas had not mobilized.

How much did you get paid for that disgusting post.

I am not the least bit surprised.

I didn’t know Ron had it in him.

It's exactly the sort of thing I expect from him. Incidentally, I didn't buy into Mr. Trump's childish "poo-flinging" antics.

My issues with DeSantis had nothing to do with what anyone said about him—it was the chaos of the SuperPac silliness that was my first waving red flag.

He could still get indicted for flagrant campaign violations—the SuperPac and campaign were deeply intertwined in flagrant violation of clear campaign law—totally unforced errors that just got crazier and crazier as the campaign progressed.

What if Biden decides to federalize all national guard as a way to stop this?

Not even sure if it is even possible.

This just in:
The Biden Administration will be shipping Water Wings to Mexico.
