Democrat Debbie Mucarsel-Powell was a U.S. Representative for Florida’s 26th district from 2019 to 2021 when she lost her re-election bid. Mucarsel-Powell might be out of Congress but she’s still in the game when it comes to sounding the alarm about Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Apparently the ex-Rep talks to Republicans and they tell her things that just happen to align with narratives the Dems are pushing:
Yesterday I had conversations with long time FL Republicans. They told me they are done with DeSantis & want change. “He’s a dictator,” “he’s too extreme.” “This is not Cuba he reminds us of Castro.”
Don’t give up hope FL, we are bright purple, we can get back our state! 💪🏼

Florida Republicans hating DeSantis must be why he just got re-elected in a landslide, or something.
lady, there was an election 4 months ago and he cannot run again so the usefulness of this anecdote is unclear and the new chair of FDP is spending her time trolling DeSantis's book on Amazon

These exact stories were also going around in October of last year.

Chance she actually had those conversations with actual Florida Republicans: ZERO.
The results of the recently-held election suggest Florida residents do not feel DeSantis is a dictator. https://t.co/co63ELh4H4

Really though, if they’re going to lie could they at least make it remotely believable?
