Ron DeSantis isn’t very good at invoking rage. Partly because he’s a pre-programmed ambitious Republican bot encoded to emote faux outrage for political gain. And partly because when he tries to be an Everyman, his silver spoon roots sneak through. According to FloridaPolitics.com, DeSantis is being a good li’l Republican ‘phobe and swearing off Bud Light and all Anheuser-Busch products for its overt support of the LGBTQ–particularly the T part–community. He’s actually a Guinness man, he says.
Well, not only is Guinness Irish, it’s also owned by Diageo, one of the most trans-friendly companies in the world. They’re so trans-supportive, they aired this ad for its J&B Scotch brand about a trans grandfather and his grandson. Now poor Ronnie’s gotta get another fake favorite. Or maybe be more authentic and discuss the various vintages of Bordeaux he has in his cellar. Y’know, like an Everyman. (Credit to Arthur Schwartz for noting the hypocrisy.)
