Ron DeSantis had a complete meltdown when asked about a former Guantanamo detainee who said DeSantis observed his torture. Ron DeSantis for too long has been the boy in the bubble. Shielded from constituents and press in safe spaces within Florida.

He is going to be mincemeat 🤣😂

Where’s the “meltdown”…? Not all politicians receive pre-arranged questions from journalists.

DeSantis has yet to learn that defiant denials like that open the door for hundreds of investigative journalists to dig and dig and dig. If DeSantis lied he will be exposed in a harsh way. Notice he always tries to put the questioner down rather than say where he was at that time

DeSantis' defensiveness, his ego, his temper, his inability to take criticism, all disqualify him to serve as POTUS.

My Jewish family member recognized a person who worked at Auschwitz…..in a California restaurant in the 1970’s. Yes, @GovRonDeSantis, people remember.

We must have a different definition of “complete meltdown”

DeSantis just confirmed he was very junior at Guantanmo--as Moe Davis pointed out last month--not at all the Top Gun warrior that Meatball Ron has tried to spin

There's literally video of him discussing force feeding.

When substance fails, always fall back on an ad hominem, substanceless, personal attack. "Meltdown."🙄 Being self-assured, direct and assertive in confronting a stupid question from a journalist can hardly be equated to a 'meltdown'. Many Americans are so used to pandering, kowtwers they can't recognize a no nonsense leader when they see one.

Hopefully the media will dig up as much as they can on DeSantis to expose his fascism further. We don't need them to sleep on this guy like they did Trump.

He has had people removed from press conferences in handcuffs because he didn't like the questions. He wanted transparency but doesn't want it for himself.

His head really does bobble a lot whne he get nervous

I heard that testimony from a Gitmo detainee. He was clear regarding DeSantis

@ann_crossley Meltdown Ron shows us time and time again that he’s NOT ready for prime time😂

“How would he remember me”? Not, “I never observed torture in Guantanamo”? 🤨

I doubt anyone forgets the people that were present while they were being tortured.

pretty sure concentration camp detainees remember their jailers REAL well

@LALawReport After Herr Gruppenführer Ron DerSantis narcissistic collapse in the Museum of Tolerance, DerSantis is probably anxious to return to the Gilead Republic of Florida, and organize his state-financed personal Sturmabteilung.

I find him shrill and offputting, overly emotional.

Some of that same testimony implicated the CIA in 9/11. Dig deeper!!

According to the survivor in question, DeSantis was a really memorable guy because, when he arrived, he asked the hostages what the worst things about the concentration camp were. It made them hopeful. And then he systematically made all those things worse.

He’s very fragile.

He also has never faced any real scrutiny of his actions in the military. This performance today guarantees that honeymoon is over.

I tried to break free, I noticed DeSantis’s handsome face among the crowd at the other side of the chain link. He was watching me struggle. He was smiling and laughing with other officers as I screamed in pain."

@resist45bigly Is that his staff clapping for him? What tf is that for real, bc who claps in a press briefing besides the people told to by their boss when they are trying to make him look cool in the face of losing his shit

You are the boy in the bubble. He defends himself acurately when the prsss missrepresents. Nothing I have not seen 20 times.

Funny that he’s not denying he watched the torture, but that the person would know him

You have the entire situation backwards. For specific example: the answer he gave regarding Publix and Covid shots, which earned him an entire 60 minutes segment. That’s not a meltdown, it’s a master class

Fun fact: The crimes DeSantis was involved in all fall under universal jurisdiction, so there are ways to make his international travel very exciting indeed.

You’re kidding, right?

That's not a meltdown, Tommy. He called the reporter out on the bullshit claim and the guy immediately backed down.
