Jewish Democrats in Florida on Thursday called for Gov. Ron DeSantis to pull out of a rally with Pennsylvania Republican Doug Mastriano, arguing that the appearance with a candidate who has welcomed the support of Christian nationalists would only encourage far-right extremism.

DeSantis, who is himself up for reelection, is scheduled to attend a rally in Pittsburgh on Friday with Mastriano, who won the GOP nomination for governor after being endorsed by former President Donald Trump.

Currently a state senator, Mastriano has been widely rebuked, including by members of his own party, for associating with Gab, a social network favored by white supremacists, including the man who attacked worshippers at the Tree of Life synagogue; Mastriano praised Gab's founder -- a self-described "Christian nationalist" who has said Jews are not welcome in his movement -- and paid the site $5,000 before deleting his own account in the wake of criticism.

"Let's not mince words here: Mastriano is an antisemite," Fred Guttenberg, a gun control activist whose daughter was killed in the Parkland school shooting, said on a press call Thursday. "He has shown himself to be with words and actions over an extended period of time. Any embrace of Mastriano is an embrace of antisemitism, full stop."

1. I thought DeSantis was supposed to be a smarter version of trump?

Well maybe we don't have to worry so much about him as in trying to expand his influence and national visibility he backs an anti-Semitic, Christofascist in Pennsylvania who is already far behind in the polls.

2. Must be the swamp gas getting into his head.

I expect we will hear the usual disclaimer like Trump gave when questioned why he slept with Hitler's speeches close by. (I won't dignify it by restating it but it is an idiot's attempt to deflect blame.)

3. DeSatan was in Sarasota 8/21/22 shilling for school board candidate who uses anti-Semitic trope

to demonize her opponent. Hate-mobiles drove and parked around town with "baby-killer" and photo of masked opponent, who is Jewish. The Rethug candidate has ties to a Proud Boy group here. End goal, destroy public education, privatize schools and control information.

BTW, by law, Florida school board elections are supposed to be non-partisan. But it's springtime for Fascists in Florida.

4. Are these the same Jewish Democrats

Are these the same Jewish Democrats who will vote for Crist over Fried?
