In the State of Florida education system, Ron DeSantis, a distant number two in polls in pursuit of the GOP nomination, just approved defining slavery as benefiting the black people. How? By setting them up to earn a living through skills taught to them while in shackles. This is not sitting well with lots of people, to include an African American GOP Representative, which DeSantis is ignoring. Under this logic, it won’t be long before the DeSantis next racist trope might cite that Jews benefited from the Holocaust because it helped European Jews immigrate to the United States, where they flourished.
Or that the Holocaust accelerated the founding of the State of Israel, an idea that has been in limbo since 1896 when Theodor Herzl published his pamphlet about a new “Jewish State”.
DeSantis is redefining slavery as a training program for black people. If that is not racism, then this writer is a frog waiting for a DeSantis transgender kiss.
Perhaps we are wrong to call Donald Trump the Führer, and Ron DeSantis the Benito. Potentially, we should reverse call them.
THE UGLINESS OF RON DESANTIS
Put Trump aside, Ron DeSantis can never win a GOP nomination when his staff are as racist as he is. One of whom, named Nate Hochman, shared a video online which boasted a well-known Nazi symbol.
Even though the DeSantis campaign fired Hochman, when we say that DeSantis next racist trope may cite the benefits of the Holocaust, we are not far off the target. Does the campaign not vet its employees before hiring Nazi sympathizers? Or, in this instance, maybe his boss turned a blind eye to Hochman’s Nazi sympathy because such culture is already so prevalent among racists in the DeSantis campaign.

AS RACIST AS THEY COME
Any way one dissects this story about Ron DeSantis, when it comes to accepting the reality of America’s diversity, we always end up seeing racism and bigotry in this man. Everything this country has fought against since the rise of the civil rights movement keeps appearing before our eyes naked and plain.
In fact, we are taking bets that it won’t be long before DeSantis goes after the native Indians. Even though, his ancestors almost exterminated since the 1600s.
Folks, Ron DeSantis, like Trump, has no business running for office. His backwardness and medieval mindset will set this country back to lynching and concentration camps (DeSantis has already that experience working in Guantánamo).
We simply cannot let his happen to our great country.
