Over the weekend, longtime Trump confidante Roger Stone published a blistering op-ed threatening to run for Governor of Florida against Ron DeSantis if he didn’t reform the voters rolls of phantom voters ahead of the 2022 and 2024 elections, and take election fraud more seriously.

Within days of veteran political operative Roger Stone teasing a potential run for Governor in Florida on the Libertarian ticket in the 2022 election, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is signaling to the Trump faithful that he wants to create an “Office of Election Integrity”, an agency with law enforcement power that would monitor election fraud in future elections.
DeSantis continues to insist that the 2020 election in Florida was the most honest election in history. In fact, there are as many as one million phantom voters currently still on the Florida voter rolls. Governor DeSantis has failed to act decisively to remove these nonexistent or unqualified “voters” from the rolls. Politifacts, a crazy left wing fake news operation, says I am wrong about this. Actually they are wrong.

Stone went on to praise DeSantis for his stance against lawless school board members who are imposing illegal mask mandates and gun confiscating “red-flag” laws, but notes the actual inaction from the DeSantis administration.

DeSantis talks the talk, but he doesn’t walk the walk. While I applaud his much hyped banning of mask mandates in the public schools, his failure to actually remove elected school board members in large Red counties who illegally flout this ban on masks is unacceptable. Florida school children in many big counties are still forced to wear masks when they are medically useless, unscientific and illegal as well. The Governor has the legal authority to remove any state or county official who is violating the law. Sadly, Ron Desantis does nothing…

Both DeSantis and Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody pledged to oppose “red flag laws” which would deny the constitutional rights of Floridians to keep and bear arms, but neither has taken decisive action to do so. Supporting fines for counties that enact such illegal and unconstitutional restrictions is a head fake. The failure of DeSantis to put forward “open-carry” proposals like laws in place in Texas and Tennessee, is an affront to anyone who supports our Second Amendment rights to keep and bear arms.

While many might think that Stone’s announcement that he might have to run for Governor of Florida to hold DeSantis accountable is just performance art, the lightning response from DeSantis following Stone’s campaign tease, shows that DeSantis understands how election integrity and other issues referenced by the political operative could create trouble for his re-election campaign if voters don’t see tangible action in the coming months.

Among Stone’s other demands of DeSantis? That the Governor pledge to serve his full four-year term if re-elected.

Assuming that Governor DeSantis is going to run for re-election in 2022, I believe it is essential that he pledge to the people of the Sunshine State that he will serve all four years of his next term, and that he won’t abandon Florida by running off to challenge President Donald Trump for the Republican Presidential Nomination in 2024.Florida is NOT a stepping stone for Ron’s Presidential dreams. We actually have to live here.
