So here's the thing. Yes, dude is terrible for Florida. But voters love the guy, so really it's everyone getting what they deserve?
I don’t understand how people who profess to love powerful, intelligent alpha men have fallen for a 5’ 6” heel wearing manlette that speaks like Kermit and a grown man that wears makeup and speaks like he had a stroke. Make it make sense.
Intelligent is where it goes wrong. They only claim to like intelligence, because that sounds good to claim. They're actually extremely anti-intellectual in basically every way you can be. Real jocks vs nerds stuff, for people who never outgrew a HS mentality.
Reminds me of TERFs/FARTs saying the "science" agrees with them (ie "lies we tell to children so they understand the basics"), meanwhile every actual geneticist, doctor, etc is like "keep that word out of your lying gullet"
Intelligence to a dumbass is someone agreeing with what they already think, not actual intelligence
