Democrats across Florida are still licking their wounds after being demolished by Gov. Ron DeSantis, Senator Marco Rubio, and Florida Republicans on election night.

Ana Navarro, who lives in the Miami boogie down and is one of the hosts on The View, thinks Gov. DeSantis only won his race by 20 points over Charlie Crist because he was able to intimidate black voters.

In essence what she was that DeSantis won because he employed racism throughout the state or “gamed the system.” Someone may need to check on Ana on a regular basis. READ MORE

Gov. Ron DeSantis

"Never Trumper TV Host Claims DeSantis Won by 'Gaming the System' or Racism" by The Floridian's Grayson Bakich —Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) utterly smashed Charlie Crist (D) in the midterms, a 20-point blowout that is easily the biggest win for Republicans nationwide. Part of it lies in DeSantis' popularity and smart handling of various issues. The other reason is the relative unpopularity and alienating rhetoric espoused by Crist. However, CNN political commentator Ana Navarro asserts a third, more nefarious reason, in that DeSantis somehow "gamed the system."

"Donalds Officially Announces Run for House GOP Conference Chair" by The Floridian's Grayson Bakich —Though the midterms are over in Florida, bringing with it an astounding victory for Republicans, Rep.
