Quote
During a nationally televised appearance on MSNBC to criticize Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ (R) educational policies, a Democratic lawmaker touted his credentials as a former teacher before saying the state’s “children are more smarter” than DeSantis believes. The statement was one of numerous grammatical and factual errors made by Florida State Senator Shevrin Jones (D) on “The ReidOut with Joy Reid” Thursday night

But wait! There's more!
Quote
DeSantis “is not dealing with the things that is [sic] more important, the kitchen table issues,” like “the up in rent that has taken place in South Florida,” apparently referring to rent increases. “

Sounds like my Freshman English teacher in high school who on the first day of class proclaimed "I teaches English and I is a gunna learn alla youse ta read and write betta."
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

The dems ready are scared of DeSantis if they're shoveling this much BS almost 3 years before the 2024 election
