The Republican presidential primary is fulfilling its promise to be this season’s most stupendous circus of silliness and psychopathy. It features a cast of Lilliputian candidates who are fighting to see who can be the most solicitous toward the GOP’s Dear Leader, Donald Trump.

The only contender so far to have slithered out of single digits, other than Trump, is Florida’s aspiring authoritarian, Ron DeSantis, who is managing to lose to both Trump and Mickey Mouse. The DeSantis strategy appears to be focused on capturing the segment of the Republican electorate that thinks that Trump isn’t fascist enough and has too much charisma.

The DeSantis obsession with what he calls the “woke mind virus” has compelled him to reference that wholly manufactured disease in at least every other sentence. And on Sunday morning he took that anti-woke road show to Fox News, where he spends more time than he does in Tallahassee.
However, on this occasion, DeSantis came face to face with Fox’s most Trump-loving host, Maria Bartiromo. And she greeted him with something that was more of a confrontation than an interview. Each utterance of her repeated inquiries as to what DeSantis would do was like a challenge that assumed he wouldn’t do anything significant (video below).
“I think one of the reasons that Donald Trump is in the lead is because of the corruption and the unfairness of our justice system. I want to know what you’re going to do. What are you going to do about the fact that the FBI worked with Twitter to censor information, amplify lies and suppress truth? What are you going to do about this influence peddling that we see is in plain sight that the Biden family has been doing allegedly, for now, more than a decade? What can you do to straighten things out now that Americans are sick and tired of the corruption they see in plain sight?”
To support her undisguised bias in favor of Trump, Bartiromo’s question enumerated a series of fictional scandals. The first of which was her belief that the American justice system is corrupt and unfair simply because it has recently endeavored to hold Trump accountable for his multitude of crimes. That’s straight out of Trump’s hyperbolic and hostile “Playbook of Pathetic and Vicious Victimhood.”

Bartiromo continued with her inquisition asserting such fallacies as “the FBI worked with Twitter to censor information.” That was proved to be a flagrant lie promoted by Elon Musk and Fox News. Then she alleged that there was “influence peddling” by the Biden family “that we see is in plain sight.” Which was just another evidence-free conspiracy theory advanced by Republicans in Congress. And finally, Bartiromo whined that the American people are “sick and tired of the corruption” that she attributes to the Biden administration. The nation is indeed sick and tired of corruption, but most Americans believe that it is Trump who is responsible for it.

For his part, DeSantis responded to Bartiromo by dodging every one of her questions. He never said what he would actually do about any the phony issues she raised. He merely agreed with her allegations and muttered vaguely that he would fix whatever the heck she thought was wrong.
“”We will end the weaponization of government, […] And I look back at like the Hunter Biden censorship, which was a huge, huge deal to happen in the 2020 election. And yet, you know, those were Donald Trump’s own agencies that were colluding with big tech.”
What wasn’t said was that everything that DeSantis and Bartiromo are complaining about took place during the Trump administration by people that he appointed. So in effect, they are alleging that Trump colluded against himself. It’s a bold and bizarre strategy. But it’s the only one they have. And while it might work on Trump’s cult disciples, it will further alienate the rest of the electorate. So expect more of the same as the primary proceeds. And enjoy the battle between DeSantis and Trump as they try to out-crazy each other.

Fox Nation vs. Reality:
The Fox News Cult of Ignorance.Thanks so much for your support.
Serious, if Fux Spews was a real news media, this would get her fired. But since it IS Fux, she probably just earned a raise.
And likely Her Beloved God’s emnity since he’s too dumb to realize she spent the entire “interview” protecting HIM and attacking his one true opponent.
Hunter Biden, Hunter Biden, Hunter Biden….what has this got to do with President Joe Biden?? Why don’t our Democrats push back on this?? Look what TUMP’s dope fiend son, Don Jr. has did, and TUMP’s damn son in law, what’s his name, Kirshner??? These stupid idiot Fascist Rethugs keep harping on the same old thing. They use the same old lies over and over and over again. All of these cretins are corrupt and rotten to the core. All of them should have been arrested and put in prison 2 years ago. They seem to believe they are immune from the law. Imprison these big mouthed assholes and shut them up for good. I am tired of their ranting and raving and nothing comes out of their mouths but a continuous string of lies to justify what they are trying to present to Fox Spews and the rest of the ignorant, stupid, lame brained, uneducated base. Conspiracy is the name of their game.
It’s Kushner. Jared, as in the tag line for an ad for a jewelry store “He went to Jared” My sister got mad about something she’d heard about Trump asking advice from Jared Kushner. My reply “Oh, he went to Jared?” Or Jared as in the actor who plays SUPERNATURAL’s Sam Winchester.
That was a good reply, did your sister get mad at you for saying that?? My ex-wife’s sister is a lunatic TUMP follower too. I believe she would give TUMP’s rear end a French kiss if he told her to.. She is a true TUMP fanatic, and TUMP is her ”GOD”
No, Kay laughed. Neither one of us can stand the Mango and his family.
