MORE HYPOCRISY FROM MEATBALL DESANTIS

Florida Governor properly suspends Orlando official indicted for felony thefts, yet endorses Donald Trump for President.

Very interesting.

No one, not even his harshest critics like me, can fault Governor DeSantis for suspending Orlando City Commissioner Regina Hill.

When a grand jury indicts a public official on seven felony counts for fleecing a 96 year old woman out of her money, that official should be suspended until acquitted, and permanently removed upon a conviction. The Florida State Constition authorizes this. Unlike the Governor’s suspension of Andrew Warren as States Attorney for what two courts found to be unconstitutional political reasons, this suspension was well-grounded, based on serious criminal allegations.

The question then becomes: how can governor DeSantis endorse for President someone who is facing four very serious felony indictments, and has already been adjudicated a fraudster and a rapist?
