'reviled' journalists

Gov. Ron DeSantis wants to make it clear: the White House Correspondents Dinner in Washington, DC, with its "cabal" of "reviled" journalists, is not his scene.

The Florida Republican sought to clarify on Monday that he did not attend the soiree in DC on Saturday night after he was the subject of multiple zingers from "Daily Show" host, Trevor Noah, who headlined the event. Noah described DeSantis as one of the "big names" at the dinner, but DeSantis told reporters that wasn't true.

"I would never attend that, I have no interest in that," he said, after a reporter asked for a response to Noah's comments. "I did not watch it. I don't care what they do."

DeSantis, considered a top contender for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, accused "them" of lying about him being at the dinner because his office rejected the invitation and "the idea that I would have ever gone is false."

If we're fortunate you'll never get the chance.

1. he really is just a snotty spoiled bully and brat, isn't he. Fuck you, Ron. STFU. Go away

[TheRealNorth]

2. He prefer treasonous cabals

And to be in the company of a cabal of traitors.

[Midnight Writer]

3. Glad Trevor didn't waste his material just because DeSantis didn't show.

[vlyons]

4. What a contrast

DeSantis, thin-skinned, bully, arrogance that covers over deep insecurity, inability to laugh at himself

Joe Biden, deeply well-experienced, possessing grace and humility, ability to laugh at jokes about himself without feeling personally insulted.

5. He gets it

in that he understands his path to power isn't policy, it's full on cultural warrior.

Same as Trump figured out.

[FloridaBlues]

6. What a glass jaw he has.

[nolabear]

7. Well bless his heart.

That is all.

[CrispyQ]

8. The type of man that Trumpers look up to, takes himself very seriously.

There is never any poking fun at oneself with these types. When Biden greeted the press the other night by saying 'you're the only other group less popular than me,' Trump & the DeSantis type, would never say that.

It's a glaring character deficiency, IMO, taking oneself so seriously. One of a very long list these types have.

[Deuxcents]

9. He just goes after those who disagree

Like Disney in Florida. Teachers. Cruise lines over masks. God help us if he gets to the National tier.

[Ray Bruns]

10. That anti-establishment, Christofacist dribble may work in Florida.

I don't think his rabid views will work much elsewhere other than the south.

[Kid Berwyn]

11. Nutjob

Believes himself superior, like a king, yet, he is…

[kacekwl]

12. The trump playbook, media fake, enemy of the people.

They sure like him though.

[DFW]

13. We can only hope that Ronnie will never get the chance

Instead of a mike drop, signs can be posted at the entrance: DeSantis? OUT!

[Achilleaze]

14. Republican BullyBoy has OverTanned his Nuts

Wanker BullyBoy needs to spend less time in the Republican Nut Tanning Salon, and more time listening to the citizens of his state.

Republican BullyBoy owes me bigly for my sage advice

[lpbk2713]

15. No need for him to worry about that.

He shouldn't hold his breath waiting for an invitation.
They would only invite him for comic relief.
The whole world thinks he's an asshole.

17. News for you DeSantis

For the next 3 election cycles trump will probably be on the ticket. even when he loses next round, he'll still suck the oxygen out of the following 2 gop primary sessions.

You'd think the future gop candidates would know this and assist in getting him indicted.

[Talitha]

18. Honest question - is he an anti-vaxxer? (I don't bother reading anything about him.)

If is an anti-vaxxer and went to the dinner, then everyone would know he's fully vaxxed and boosted.

Just like the folks at the Pox 'news' table.

BTW, Joe did a great job of shining the light of truth on them.
