The establishment is finally admitting how scared they are of Ron DeSantis.
And they are racing to try to stop him.
Now one establishment RINO has confessed something shocking.
Max Boot is a former Bush Republican who has since joined forces with the Left. He opposes America First policies and believes in globalism.
For years, he was a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and he spent decades pushing for more war and bigger government.
He supported the disastrous war in Iraq, and he also supported Obama and Hillary’s idiotic war in Libya, which ultimately led to the Benghazi tragedy.
In 2016, he switched sides and supported Hillary Clinton. Since then, he has been an adamant supporter of the Democratic Party, comparing conservatives to “foreign terrorist groups.”
But there is one politician who has him trembling, and in a recent op-ed, he finally admitted how scared he is of Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida.
According to Fox News, “The latest piece from Washington Post opinion columnist Max Boot claimed that Governor Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., is a ‘bigger threat to the Republic’ than former President Donald Trump because he is ‘smarter’ than Trump.”
“Boot opened his screed against the Republican governor – a 2024 presidential election favorite – by comparing him to former President Donald Trump and trying to ascertain who is worse.”
“For Boot, DeSantis is thus more dangerous than Donald Trump.”
Of course, when Boot says that DeSantis is “dangerous” what he really means is that DeSantis is dangerous to the special interests that Boot caters to.
What is he so afraid of? The Fox News article makes that clear.
“Boot mentioned facets of DeSantis’ shrewd political agenda, including when he ‘signed legislation severely curtailing mask and vaccine mandates for businesses and local governments,’ when his appointees who control the University of Florida forbade ‘professors from testifying against DeSantis plans to restrict mask-wearing and voting rights.’”
It’s clear that Boot is upset that DeSantis kept Florida open and free during COVID, and allowed his businesses to continue to thrive.
After all, DeSantis’s COVID policies proved that the Left-wing agenda of mask mandates and lockdowns was completely morally bankrupt and ineffective.
Florida was supposed to be a “pit of death” as DeSantis kept restaurants and bars open. But what really happened is that Florida became the most booming economic state in the country, and fared no worse than any other state when it came to COVID.
For someone like Max Boot who believes wholeheartedly in authoritarianism and government control, DeSantis is a threat to everything he stands for.
But patriotic Americans who want their freedom back know better.
That’s why some people have begun comparing DeSantis to another President who stood for freedom, Ronald Reagan.
It’s clear that when DeSantis runs for President in 2024, people like Max Boot are going to go all-out to try and defeat him.
But no matter how much money they spend smearing him, DeSantis has already proven that he can defeat their ugly tactics and win real victories for the conservative movement in America.
