Worse governor? Greg Abbott or Ron Desantis?

[True Dough]

It's a race to the bottom between these clowns. Which of the two do you think is worse?

[ProudMNDemocrat]

1. They can both join Huey Long as most CORRUPT.

[Nikki28]

2. Every last

I agree and every last one who is being cruel to people.

[DoBW]

3. choice?

ummm.. yeah ... they both suck

[Native]

4. DeSantis

[Phoenix61]

5. I'm a Floridian. DeSatan makes me embarrassed to admit that.

Anyone who “defies” him becomes a target for whatever hell he can rain down upon them legal or otherwise. He’s cost the state of Florida untold money funding his personal vendettas.

[True Dough]

6. It wasn't too long ago that some were calling him "Trump Lite"

But he's so vindictive and seemingly getting worse, he could surpass Trump on the autocrat scale.

[Phoenix61]

7. Oh, I think he passed Trump a while back.

His vendetta against Disney is beyond absurd. I think he decided to go after the biggest fish in Florida and bring them to their knees. After that, no one would oppose him. He significantly overestimated his ability to do that and underestimated them. Why does this sound so familiar? On yeah, Putin and Ukraine. May they both get what they so richly deserve.

[Scottie Mom]

38. Some times, IMO, DeSatan's ego makes tfg look humble.

Who the fuck would sue a mouse, keep losing to the mouse, and not quit because he has to prove himself superior to a cartoon chasracter? Only DeSatan.

[HardPort]

8. I mean, that's like asking which stinks worse, monkey poop or baboon poop?

[True Dough]

13. I'm going with baboons

They must have something funky in their diets!

But Desantis and Abbott still stink even more!

[marmar]

9. It's like asking rather you'd rather die by firing squad or being eaten alive by crocodiles.

[AllaN01Bear]

11. both cookie cutter politicians .

[Emile]

12. Hands down it's a tie.

[Ocelot II]

14. Tough call.

[0rganism]

15. Two things I have learned from the last decade

1. There is no bottom.
2. There's always someone worse.

That said I agree with others in the thread who called the race a tie so far. Abbott seems to get more mileage from neglect while Desantis relies more on latent malice. Both adequately represent the blight that has befallen our country.

[Dustlawyer]

16. Abbott!

He settled for the accident that left him crippled, but he supported tort reform that would put a cap well below his settlement for those injured after him. He will do or say anything to keep and abuse his power. This applies to Desantis as well but I live in Texas so there is my vote.

If Texas ever returns to Democratic rule after decades of Republican rule be ready for the unearthing of a whole lot of graft and corruption over that time!

[Turbineguy]

17. That's a knotty one.

If Abbott and DeSantis fell into a lake and were drowning and you could only save one, what would you do?

Sit down and enjoy my sandwiches.

[True Dough]

18. Ha ha!

Maybe offer to toss 'em a soda.

[Turbineguy]

20. Would you believe

a bowling ball?

[True Dough]

24. Hey, if an anchor isn't handy

then a bowling ball will suffice!

[uponit7771]

33. +1,

[LetMyPeopleVote]

19. I am biased but I vote for Greg

[mvd]

21. It's hard to choose when..

I would pick one and the other does something even lower. DeSantis has national aspirations so he is more dangerous there.

[allegorical oracle]

22. They're both despicable. Two men wildly overcompensating at the citizens' expense. nt

[Kennah]

23. They need to settle it with a duel

[True Dough]

25. A duel to the

Deathsantis!

[Kennah]

26. Weapon of choice will be dildos

[True Dough]

28. No better way

for either of them to go.

[Polybius]

27. Dan Patrick will be worse than both when he's elected in 2026

He's horrific.

[Behind the Aegis]

29. OK's governor, Shitt...er...Stitt, should be in the running.

He isn't as high profile, but take a look at all the shit he has done in the past two years, everything from banning drag, to banning indigenous regalia at graduation, appointing an asshole who called the teachers' unions "terrorist organizations", and the list goes on and on!

[BlueCheeseAgain]

30. They're both terrible.

But DeSantis is worse.

[ecstatic]

31. equally deplorable, evil trash. nt

[ProfessorGAC]

32. The Answer Is "Yes"

The only thing different is the name.

[jmowreader]

34. You do realize...

...asking whether Abbott or DeSantis is worse is like asking whether rabies or ebola is worse.

[Xolodno]

35. That's like choosing between Hitler and Stalin. n/t

[icymist]

36. Worse situation? Frying pan or fire?

They both suck.

[GoCubsGo]

37. That's like asking what's worse to catch? Gonorrhea or Chlamydia?

They are two sides of the same coin.
