    Can I just point out the irony of this ad comparing DeSantis to Thomas Shelby and Patrick Bateman? Both murderers and psychopaths. Villains. And yet the DeSantis campaign thinks these characters, criminal and without empathy or morals, are perfect to compare their candidate to. What the actual fuck.

      They’re trying to create an association between DeSantis and ‘badasses’ in the minds of very simple people. Trouble is it’ll work exactly as intended.
