The democratic party candidates have all been garbage for the last 2 elections. In 2018 the guy was too far left for most people. He wanted to abolish ICE (which he can’t do as gov), and enact Medicare for All (which even didn’t get Bernie elected). In 2022, the Dem candidate was Charlie Crist, who was a former Republican (and used to be a Republican Florida governor a long time ago). The only thing people remember about Crist was that he used to be a Republican. Why the DNC thought the Dem voters would want him back again, I have no idea. There was a legitimately better candidate on the ballot who lost the primary because of him after she had a pretty solid campaign momentum going. They never should’ve put him on the ballot. He entered way too late and his campaign had no real substance. Hoping 2026 will go better.
For an aspiring fascist overlord, he has /terrible/ fashion sense.
Or, worse, this is actually seen as fashionable in Florida.
EDIT: For the record I am not knocking that particular kind of cowboy boot that is /very ostentatious/, colored brightly and extended fsr beyond the toe line for obvious flashiness and comedic effect. DeSantis here is in the sort of uncanny valley between more standard cowboy boots and those.
