In a Republican Party packed with sleazy, dishonest grifters and cowards, Mike Pence stands out as one of the most craven pandering opportunists.
@cstross @hntdove You can tell when they try to review fiction. You do not want to be letting Ben Shapiro tell you what movies to like.

@flexghost as a reminder, when people show you who they are, believe them.

This whole strategy has been playing out in real time. He continues to show the evil behind the mask but the system is so compromised at this stage it's not enough to cause action.

Voting has to stop these monsters or our society will have agreed that their evil represents us. It doesn't and we need to prove it at the ballots.

Ron DeSantis says he wants to “make america Florida”
