DeSantis vows to ‘start slitting throats on day one’

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis ® on Sunday said he would “start slitting throats on day one” when it comes to taking on the “deep state.”
DeSantis made the remarks at a barbecue campaign event in Rye, N.H., hosted by former Sen. Scott Brown (R-N.H.).
“We’re going to have all of these deep state people, you know, we are going to start slitting throats on day one,” DeSantis said.
This is not the first time the Florida governor has used the terminology. Last month, during an interview with the right-leaning outlet Real America’s Voice, DeSantis used the expression when talking about how he would change the hierarchy in the Department of Defense if elected.
“I think the idea that you take a flag [officer] or general officer who recently retired and put them as [secretary of Defense], I think it is a mistake,” the governor said.
“You know, they may have to slit some throats. And it’s a lot harder to do that if these are people that you’ve trained with in the past or that you know,” DeSantis said. “So we’re going to have somebody out there, you know, be very firm, very strong, but they are going to make sure that we have the best people in the best positions, and there’s not going to be necessarily prior relationships that would cloud that judgment.”

Brown was the Republican who won Ted Kennedy's D-MA seat which he later coughed up to Elizabeth Warren. Later he was the losing GOP candidate for a NH Senate seat.

Yeah, the last guy said he was going to hire only the best people too, but we found out that he meant hire only the people I think will kiss up to me and do whatever I ask them to.

Whose throat is he going to slit? Name them now, why wait. The country is at stake here.

The willingness to engage in that type of rhetoric, particularly in the volatile climate of the last five to ten years, should disqualify one from office just on its own.

Dumbf will soon be gone - time will see to that, DeSatan will not.

Incumbent Governor Ron DeSantis will be term limited through the state's constitution and cannot run for reelection to a third term....which means that unless he can make himself a senator he's going to fade away. (I'm sure that repeating as a Congressman won't do it for any Presidential candidate profile.)

Well he can't really afford to go after the 'Medicare Miscreant Seat' now held by Scott so it'll have to be Rubio's funeral. That will be difficult since he'll end up alienating half the right wing Cuban vote.
Maybe move to Texas while Abbot moves to Miami?
