Some of you may remember when I posted on a new Van Zant brothers tune celebrating “Sweet Florida” and its governor not too terribly long ago.
Well, don’t look now, but the other shoe has officially dropped.
Watch: Ron DeSantis Makes Surprise Appearance at Lynyrd Skynyrd Concert, Crowd Chants ‘USA!’
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) made a surprise appearance at a recent Lynyrd Skynyrd concert in Hollywood, Florida, where the stunned crowd erupted in loud applause and chanted “USA!”
DeSantis appeared onstage with his wife, Casey, and their children, during the band’s show Sunday at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
Lynyrd Skynyrd has made no secret of its admiration of De Santis.
Earlier this year, lead singer Johnny Van Zant and his brother, Donny Van Zant, released a new single dedicated to the governor titled “Sweet Florida.”
The song includes the lyrics: “You can take it to the bank, he don’t care what Brandon thinks at the White House / He’s fighting for the right to keep our state free / Well he’s taking on the swamp and he’s calling out Dr. Fauci / He’s the only one fighting for you and me.”
Florida First Lady Casey DeSantis has reportedly announced that the Jacksonville band has donated $100,000 to help those affected by Hurricane Ian, with the amount matched by the Seminole tribe.
A hat tip and a hearty “good on ya, fellas” to all involved. I know some folks don’t quite trust DeSantis; certainly, he ain’t perfect, just like all the rest of us ain’t. But speaking strictly for myself, barring some truly monumental betrayal, this immortal quote alone guarantees I’ll always love the guy: “I will not, Joe, and you can go fuck yourself.”
Yea makes you kind of consider heading south. “Our” traitors will try to nominate Pence IMHO, I see it coming. Tie Trump up in some bs and push judas Pence
“I will not, Joe, and you can go fuck yourself.”
Never happened. Just another lie told because we’d like it to be true. Makes a buck for somebody.
Ronnie D may be fine, for all I know. He’s been good for FL.
But he’s still beholden to the RNC money machine.
But let’s say he could cut a Deal to support a certain billionaire in exchange for that certain billionaire’s support and money machine access in 2028. Wouldn’t that be the Art of the Deal? MAGA.
Not going to happen. Pay attention to where the support comes from, where the money comes from. He sold out.
