So I’ve seen this sub dogpile Rand because he said something slightly nice about Trump (even though Massie has said the same “best president of my lifetime” line lol). And now I’m wondering what happens if Massie again backs DeSantis for 2028.
Don’t get me wrong, I live in Florida. As a state-level governor, DeSantis has been better than someone like Hochul, Newsom, or Pritzker. On guns, taxes, and keeping Tallahassee in check, he’s been solid.
But nationally that’s a completely different story.
His foreign-policy instincts are bad, his immigration/security "law and order" ideas get way too authoritarian garbage, and he’s shown he’s fine with federal power when it’s his priorities (porn bans, weed bans, the “alligator Alcatraz” nonsense, etc). The dude is great at owning bureaucrats in Florida, but at the federal level he’d absolutely expand Washington in directions we’d all hate (or at least continue the status Quo)
So yeah, and also the fact that Massie has endorsed this guy for PRESIDENT is a HUGE red flag for me already.

For reference, Massie officially endorsed DeSantis and campaigned with him, even appearing at a campaign stop in Iowa where he praised DeSantis.
He was his vocal, early supporter
