I'm genuinely surprised he didn't double down, refuse to resign, and say 'iT's WhAt ThE PeOpLe WaNt!'.
PinkyTheUnicorn2
Reminds me of Tucker Carlson's writer being the guy who ran the white supremacist blog. This should surprise nobody.
sgtmajorcool
DireRadiant
It's a sign of how far we've fallen that I'm impressed he had the integrity to resign.
HeHeHebieJeebies
so... DeSantis... where did you meet Jeff?
ryukochan
This dude not getting how the hood works is a good thing for his constituency, but it speaks to a crazy low barrier to entry for this job.
ratfaceddog
I’d love to see him get a lesson in how the hood works.
rongoins1
Nice try Ron "Death Sentence" as if you did not vet him and know that he had KKK background.
dposton70
Looking at the full picture it *might* be a party costume. But still, fuck him.
PrinceOfWhales
I'm shocked....that he resigned.
resolved
Gop: but but but did you know democrats we're the original racists?!!!
trippingthelightfantastic
TherealNotSid
Keep in mind, for them its not that he was part of the kkk, the problem is that he was found out.
woozle
Sniffmeenob101
I was expecting him to be like 18 not 35.jeez

The president of our HOA was a natzi
W0lfsbl00d
Come on guys, it was only a costume... It wasn't like he wore his real robes to the party!
FaFaFaFoolin
Liberal cancel culture strikes again.

SURPRISE
darkhalfbreed
He resigned for that? Usually they dig themselves in like ticks
pelicansfightingterrorism
My concern is that at some point they just won’t resign. I’m currently on season 2 of Handmaid’s Tale and it’s stoking the fires of worry…
OmenJones
takeabout10percentoff
… that he resigned.
AllEyesOnWe
wadatahmydamie
I’m only shocked that he resigned instead of being given DeSantis’ job
Lemmingofdarkestnight
I thought about that one, but I just couldn't even pretend to be shocked a little
OfAllTheUsernamesIChoseThisOne2
That duck like thing sure likes quacking

So not a '80s Halloween costume? Full on klan member? Life is too short for this level of ignorance and hatred.
SeasonedCitizen
If Florida is wiped off the map with the hurricane, I won't be too upset.
ILovedUnicornsFirst
I will. I live in Georgia and they will evacuate these nutters here and we have plenty as it is.
Kakeukh
So why did he resign? It's just standard GOP garb.
JustDriftingAboutTheInterWebs
As a life long floridia., let me express how shocked I am.
AllEyesOnWe
igual. This is less than news...sadly
idrinkcheapbeer
be safe the next couple of days.

GravyEducation
The most perplexing sentence: "Young, who is black, endorsed DeSantis."
TheJackKetch
I mean the real problem is that Young had to be described as Black, rather than by his skills and achievements. We should all be colorblind
alex5775
Also, given the subject matter, I do think that's a pertinent detail.
alex5775
People of color don't tend to like the "colorblind" line. We should be accepting differences, not ignoring them
SinxSam
Being colorblind is not necessarily good, it’s ok to acknowledge our differences, it’s part of us. But being treated lesser for that is bad
ILovedUnicornsFirst
I had to read it 3 times to make sure I was understanding it correctly. Wtf is that dude thinking?
ratfaceddog
Ask Mitch McConnell’s lapdog Daniel Cameron. It’s a baffling phenomenon.
ILovedUnicornsFirst
I’m guessing $$$$$$. That’s usually why. No other reason to sell your soul, I guess.
moreSaucePlease
He’s the sheriff.. ACAB
ILovedUnicornsFirst
Is that not an elected position? Why would he throw any support behind DeSantis? Florida is basically a swing state. Unless he actually is>
ILovedUnicornsFirst
>just a POS. Which is possible.
SilverNicktail
When I was in Miami last year a truck pulled up with Trump's face emblazoned on it, and a hispanic dude was like "we need him back, badly".
CaldariBob
Miami? Was he Cuban? That would track...
ILovedUnicornsFirst
Yeah, I’ve seen a few “Latinos for Trump” or some version of it around here and it always confuses me, too. The minorities I’m friends with>
ILovedUnicornsFirst
>all hate the guy so I’ve never been able to find out why any of them actually support that moron. I’d like to know out of morbid curiosity.
AlexVanPutten
The ones that came from communist countries fear any leftism. Also if they're Catholic they're likely STAUNCHLY anti choice.
CosplayComet
It's so confusing to me that people scream about 'both sides' while one side is blatantly, demonstrably, unapologetically... evil
ATastyCorpsesicle
They have their hands jammed into their eye sockets
MacallanNeat
“Yeah but the antifa terrorists broke a window or something one time, so it’s basically the same thing.” -Them
TheJackKetch
It’s the Homelander effect. People are way too scared to poke the GOP bear. Keep it calm, treat it nice, in case it just kills everyone.
MKUltraMega
immortalbucket
The fasicists play victim cards so we treat them with kid gloves.
DeniableCredibility
some people are obsessed with playing devil's advocate
FellaWithUmbrella
They just don’t see KKK as evil.
onecowboytoo
That is how we know the Democrats are more corrupt. They try to hide it. /s
ILiekToCookAndBake
W0lfsbl00d
The right is full of lying demagogues. Right Leaders know they're corrupt and vile so... their intent and goal is to paint the left as worse
W0lfsbl00d
It works on the ignorant and scared, and the complete fucking morons. And the evil fucks who think everyone is just like themselves.
idrinkcheapbeer
"Friend" of mine tried to earnestly explain that people had "different opinions" on this sort of thing. Hard to argue the KKK point but ok.
ALG0RIDDUM
The Democrats aren't perfect but republican are just racist useless cunts with no plan and nothing to show only debt
CosplayComet
Call the Left ineffectual, or wishy-washy, or toothless, but you don't see them ACTIVELY lobbying for genocide or spewing racial intolerance
Imalwaysready
Even worse, though, in the eyes of the right...they openly spew pro-tolerance and that cannot be tolerated!
CosplayComet
Or trying to tell people what they can read, or what they can do with their bodies. If you still vote Right? I got bad news for you, son...
CosplayComet
You're not the good guy....
AllEyesOnWe
Got bad news for you son...silence is complicity.
andwings2go
I think they may have gotten to the point that all morals are out the window, to just hate “Dems “ is all that matters
alex5775
The Dems are often ineffectual, we don't have a significant left in America, at least not in power
Youhavinagiraffe
To be fair to the Dems a significant part of their inability to be effective is the system is massively stacked in favour of obstruction
alex5775
They should have codified Roe, I know they only had a month or whatever, but considering Obama campaigned on it, you'd think someone 1/
alex5775
Should have maybe written the bill to be voted on ahead of time.
Youhavinagiraffe
They have voted to codify Roe in every congress since 2013. It's been filibustered by Republicans every time. It's the biased system...
