Fla. Dem. scores upset primary but targeted by city's corruption probe

It is said by many psychologists that people who are clinically depressed see much of everything in the world in hopeless, sad terms. People who are suffer from anxiety disorder see the world as a dangerous place.

It seems reasonable, therefore, to think that people who see everything in racial terms, believing everyone's statements they disagree with are racially motivated, are quite likely to be racists themselves.

Leftist Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum, a Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez fan boy, just finished up with an upset victory in Florida's gubernatorial primary. His two socialist Economics 1.1 dropouts were glowing with praise for him, as he clashed with Trump-supported Rep. Ron DeSantis.

Gillum, however, is involved with a controversy of an FBI investigation over possible corruption in Tallahassee, in which he was mayor since 2014.

Of course Gillum denied any wrongdoing, just like Anthony Weiner denied tweeting to underage girls, claiming his Twitter account was hacked. [We all know how that turned out].

Gillum claims the FBI told him that he is not a focus of the investigation, and perhaps he's telling the truth--we shall see.

Rep. DeSantis who won the GOP nomination for the governorship Tuesday told Fox News, "This guy can't even run the city of Tallahassee. There is no way Florida voters can entrust him with our entire state."

Because as a socialist, Gillum will eventually run out of other people's money.

"With Andrew Gillum, Florida Democrats have selected a radical far-left politician who remains at the center of an FBI anti-corruption investigation," the Republican Governors Association said on primary day.

President Trump has thrown his support months ago to DeSantis and on Wednesday tweeted [believe it or not]. He accused Gillum of allowing "crime" and "many other problems" to flourish in Tallahassee. He didn't go into detail about those 'many other problems.'

"Not only did Congressman Ron DeSantis easily win the Republican Primary, but his opponent in November is his biggest dream ... a failed Socialist Mayor named Andrew Gilum who has allowed crime & many other problems to flourish in his city. This is not what Florida wants or needs!"

After the election, however, DeSantis made a comment that the Democrats jumped all over [in the race-labeling way they have].

DeSantis warned voters not to "monkey this up" by voting for a socialist.

You judge a man by his actions and his past. If DeSantis had a history of racism or racist remarks, well, then the Democrats might have a case--but DeSantis does not have a racial bias history.

The word 'monkey' was said to be a racially inflammatory word against blacks; and they might be correct if that was the intention DeSantis had. But it takes a racist like an Al Sharpton, for example, to see everything in racist terms.

The Democrats accused DeSantis of using "racist dog whistles" because Gillum is black. Even Gillum, who promises to bring the people together [as once did a president named Obama], asserted that the word was racially motivated.

The DeSantis campaign dismissed the claim his words had a racial dimension, saying that it's "absurd."

And with the diverse population of Florida, it would be foolishly absurd for DeSantis to alienate a large population of people of color--that would be political suicide. It therefore stands to reason that he never meant the term 'monkey up' to be racial in undertone, but probably meant 'muck up' but it sounded too close to the "F" word and his tongue skipped on past it and grabbed the closest word to describe how Gillum would muck up the state as he did the city.

If Gillum somehow pulls off a victory in the election, he would be the first black mayor and first socialist to muck things up in the state.
