No Republican Camelot Here, DeSantis Snarls At Reporter, At Museum Of Tolerance No Less

The GOP primary is going to be one for the ages. Enter Casey DeSantis, wife of Ron, who sees herself as Jackie to DeSantis’ Jack Kennedy. They are going to bring Republican Camelot to the White House. This is going to be better than laughing gas.

More on that in a moment. But first, look at Ron DeSantis, who is on his “trade” mission abroad. He’s talking to reporters in front of the Museum of Tolerance and being the poster child for intolerance.

This would be interesting on its face, but what really cinches it, is that you’re looking at the Real Ron here, the man behind the phony smile and the coached mannerisms. He’s off script here and proving his detractors right. The man cannot engage, he cannot converse and he absolutely cannot think on his feet. He hates the press and that, Ronnie, we hate to tell you, is going to be your undoing. Although mostly you will undo yourself. The press will just be there to record it.

NOT. READY. FOR. PRIME. TIME.

Here’s the opinion of a Jew, who was appalled at this invitation to Israel and wrote an op/ed about it.

The newspaper says Reichstag Ron, the one who bans books and whitewashes Black history because it makes his fragile white base squirm in their own filthy guilt, is going to address tensions in Israel. That’s almost as rich as Trump claimed he was, but not nearly as rich as getting owned by an animated rodent (L’chaim Mickey!).

The crass culture warrior who peppers his speeches and fundraising emails with antisemitic screams of “Soros,” the one whose state, according to the ADL, has faced an unprecedented increase in antisemitism and neo-Nazi activity under his tenure, has been invited to speak at a museum of tolerance when, in fact, the only tolerance he seems to have is for, well, neo-Nazis.

Perhaps it would make more sense if someone as loathsome and intolerant and far right as DeSantis were to speak at a rally for Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, who cowered to hundreds of thousands of protesters rejecting his dictatorial plans to overhaul Israel’s judiciary, but a MUSEUM OF TOLERANCE?

The hypocrisy is, as we Jewish folk say, a shanda. Truly disgraceful.

Disgraceful it is, not just to Jewish sensibilities but to a basic moral compass, considering all the players involved in this farce.

Now, I promised I would elaborate on Republican Camelot.

I don’t think somebody like Casey DeSantis who constantly dresses like she’s going to a Disney princess party is going to appeal to that many Americans. I used to say that you could never overdress for anything, but she has made me change my mind. Not relatable. pic.twitter.com/XilJRXY7Lh

Here we go with the capes. I guess Mrs. DeSantis didn’t read the scathing reviews that Melania got wearing enough yellow fabric to cover a couch when she went to England and being described as “looking like she escaped from a road show of Beauty & The Beast.”

Or, maybe that’s Palm Beach Haute Couture, I certainly wouldn’t know.

She didn't "up" her fashion game; she dumbed it down to 1955 Barbie level, wearing long evening gloves even to casual events. It's laughable. pic.twitter.com/asF9wvLnjT

Something happened to this woman on her way to the prom. She’s fixated there.

Casey DeSantis is more of a bargain basement Priscilla Presley and even that’s a stretch. I don’t know where she conjures up Jackie Kennedy from. But, in all fairness, Ivanka recently wore the same gown as Grace Kelly in an old Hitchcock flick, so this level of delusion is not totally unknown to this crowd.

Now you know all about Republican Camelot. As if these two C-listers could hold a candle to Jack and Jackie. Oh, and guess what? We’re not leaving in the Wonder Years, in case nobody has noticed.
