I get the feeling that the Republicans are going to start openly running with a "bring back slavery" platform. I feel like I'm being hyperbolic here, but their mask has gone off so far, really since Obama was elected. All they have left is hate.

They're letting DeSantis carry that torch, like they did with Trump with his open corruption, hate, lack of accountability, racism, etc. If he wins then suddenly it's okay because it's just politics, both sides, just an opinion, etc.
