Struggling in the polls, Ron DeSantis is leaning in to homophobia.
Appealing to his base. His base is hatred.
His base is also childish and uneducated, and this sort of drivel filled with macho man imagery, memes, 4chan posts, and tiktok music appeals to children.
The world would be better if he gave up politics and just devoted himself to shitposting. The ad was unironically hilarious, just not for the reasons they probably expected.
