Ron DeSantis is following a trail blazed by a Hungarian authoritarian - crucify LGBTQ AND OTHERS!!!

This is chilling and CPAC drooled over the Hungarian authoritarian.

And DeSantis wants to be president in 2024! Trump II, but far worst!

Below is just a tiny snippet of the summary.

"In June of last year, Hungary’s far-right government passed a law cracking down on LGBTQ rights, including a provision prohibiting instruction on LGBTQ topics in sex education classes.

About nine months later, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed the so-called “Don’t Say Gay” bill banning “classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity” up through third grade. According to some knowledgeable observers on the right, these two bills were closely connected.

“About the Don’t Say Gay law, it was in fact modeled in part on what Hungary did last summer,” Rod Dreher, a senior editor at the American Conservative magazine, said during a panel interview in Budapest. “I was told this by a conservative reporter who ... said he talked to the press secretary of Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida and she said, ‘Oh yeah, we were watching the Hungarians, so yay Hungary.’”"

DeathSantis is one step away from making our LGBTQ citizens wearing a pink triangle. We must work diligently to make sure this dictator in waiting is defeated.
