Florida Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried is a candidate for governor, and she sounds confident that Gov. Ron DeSantis will be defeated in November.
So when @TomBrady and the Bucs win the Super Bowl next season, I’m going to invite the @Buccaneers to our Governor’s Mansion. #GOAT𓃵

However, the Real Clear Politics polling average has Gov. DeSantis with a solid double-digit lead over Fried, and it’s showing in the campaign trail enthusiasm.
Gov. Ron DeSantis’ press secretary Christina Pushaw shared a couple photos that tell a “tale of two press conferences”:

OOF!
Their were lots of people at the boss lady's event. They were just all dressed as empty seats.

And I see a crowd behind her dressed as trees

A recent Fried for Governor event didn’t exactly scream Nikki-Mentum:

I can count around 30 people here at this #Pensacola event, not including @NikkiFried’s staff. pic.twitter.com/swzJrGDScG

Is Fried’s campaign following the Biden strategy? Maybe!
I guess Nikki is following Joe Biden's campaign strategy since he got more votes than any president in history. 😂 https://t.co/lXRz4wNSwM

However, it probably won’t turn out for Fried the way it did for Biden.

Throw in a few softball questions from “journalists” and the resemblance would be uncanny.
Full house, I see 🤣

When progressives like @NikkiFried and @BetoORourke have huge followings on twitter, but very little following in person.
Remember social media isn't real life.

We certainly hope that’s the case in November!
