Rep. Val Demings To Run Against Sen. Rubio In Florida Senate Race
Let’s gooooo!!
Oooh I’m LOVING this – Val is a Queen!!!
@Charlie Williams not everyone. The Cuban old ladies with a crush and the hispanics may because we seek to like the macho man. But not everyone does
@Rebecca Lynch YOU ‘Gotta A Problem Wit’ Dat Karen?!!
@Charlie Williams Pretty Smart.
@Strawberries Nd Crème So Was GA, It Too Went Blue!!
Demings is definitely a good candidate for Senator.
Woo Hoo! Rubio is in for a run for his money! Val Demings is a powerhouse!
@Alice Knight Ha!!! Shows what you ( think you) know!!!
@Randall Stewart You’re right to claim no insight! Val Demings is the LAST one to call for defunding the police! She WAS law enforcement, even serving as POLICE CHIEF before getting elected to Congress! Educate yourself before making stupid, uninformed allegations about issues you know little about! You sound like a simpleton pretending to be intelligent!
@Irene’s Wacky Journals glad to hear that! But, when it comes to political issues some people are stuck on stupid…
@Bobby Valentino you say. I’ve fought with family members over bay of pigs. And told them they have a Cuban centered view of the world
I hope so. Demings is awesome!
She will be amazing
Vote your hearts out Florida! Get rid of Rubio!
@ARC Services lol
@ARC Services I try to counter arguments with history and info. Rather than troll. Hoping that I steer some folks away from the fringe style mentalities or at the very least spawn curiosity. And in some cases I do say it like it is about my own peeps.
@Modern Taurus and actually I should specify it better: hispanics can be white if they are Spanish or have the Eastern European descent like many do that have Nazi family members. But most of us even those that are white are not seen as equal to Anglo Saxon’s or caucasians. As we like to say, Los mastican pero no Los tragan. Because the thing in the us isn’t just that you are white, it’s that you have to be the Anglo Saxon, French, Germanic or Caucasian. In fact until recently they didn’t really accept Italians and the Irish. But Cubans for instance think they do. Lol
@ARC Services They don’t and you can see that as they have not problems playing will all people. I wish adults wouldn’t have lost that as they grew up, this country would be better of if we hadn’t.
@Crownmode101 Oh you poor child, well see about that. If you want a foreigner in your office, which by Florida Republican standards he is because he isn’t white and migrated to this country with his family. Well you entitled to your double standards. It just goes along with all the other BS you guys do there.
You go, girl.
Ya Second place finish 🥈🥈🥈
I know where some of my money will be going need to get Rubio out NOW.
That is good to hear GreenKrickett. Demings would be a awesome Senator!
She is awesome I really hope she wins
She won’t
I believe that she will win.
@Lakers Media She will.
Me too
Rubio did nothing after meeting with Parkland students, he promising them he would make a difference in gun laws, he went into hiding.
did dems alert you that naproxen blocks the rona didn’t think so, did they warn you that the spike protein destroys the vascular system well maybe so why they pushing the jab on kids, it’s diabolical
He’s a waste.
Don’t worry about Rubio. We have total control over the Media and so we’ll just get them to paint him as a Racist and if that don’t work we’ll find a way to cheat.
@greg j or utterly unlike you we’ll deal in the substance of what exactly is it that Rubio does in his job
another imbecile and nutjob couldn’t restrain itself from self-humilation. In case you aren’t actually sharp enough to get my meaning, I mean you.
@tigress and the u-fraidees May I provide you some good advice? Go learn how to write!
It would be worth moving to Florida just to vote for her!
No chance Floridians are smarter than that !!!
Lol. I’m excited too!
Ticket in Alabama
You’re probably a Californian
Yes it would. Demings is awesome!
You go Val!!! PLEASE help us in Florida, we are tired of being a complete joke around the world. Our corrupt politicians have to go.
Florida do be meme real estate go calll!!!
LOL, Don’t you wish, The W.D. is.
Just like he has been called little Rubio by his boss what a shame
This time Dems will
As long as the Democratic Party down here in Florida is still a hot mess, we will not be winning here anytime soon.
That would be terrific. She’s wonderful and a worker. What’s Rubio ever done except make a fool out of himself.
Cocaine. He’s done lots and lots of cocaine. The drug traffickers love him.
@DarthMacchio he represents the majority of Florida she does not represent Florida
@Lakers Media So the majority of Floridians are proud cokeheads? Got it, thanks.
Rubio is just like the 45th,2
@Lakers Media what majority? He wins because Cubans don’t care about what side he is on and we voted him because he’s young and Hispanic. But eventually many of us will realize he’s complete bull
I’m from Oklahoma and this is fantastic news, you can count me in for donations😀
I retired a few years ago in Tulsa myself. It breaks my heart to see my gullible neighbors fall for the conman. If they can turn Georgia Blue we can turn Oklahoma blue. James Langford is up for re-election and we must rid the state of him! I have even volunteered to be Precinct captain in my area! See you at the polls!
Well your donating for nothing because she ain’t winning
@Johnny Freedom my home town is Cushing, but now living in Edmond, and count me in so we can get rid of the camp director.
@Johnny Freedom I’m in OK too. We’re living on the rez now. I sure wish the Natives would lean in politically. The Choctaws have really showed for our community.
To get her “over the hump” all she has to do, is get him in a debate. He fails miserably everytime.
@Hermann Goring please be ashamed of your tag..who the heck do you think you are??? a very pitiful human..get over yourself..
That’s a false assumption.
If he fails everytime then why is he still in office?
Sadly not everything is about the debates – not everyone watches them or even cares what happens in them.
Many people will simply vote off rallies and party affiliation and little else.
@Kenny Hill Rubio wins because Cubans tend to vote for themselves. And I say this as a Cuban American that saw Democrat Cubans shift to the right for him. Especially true Cuban older ladies
LOL they will Debate like “Cortez”
Especially when he is up against MSNBC, ABC, CBS, CNN and every newspaper periodical. We’ll show those racists in freedom loving Florida who is boss. Rubio will be beaten.
Yes, Rep Val Deming’s would be such a better Senator for Florida!!!! She will call out all of little Marco lies and him hurting Florida while doing nothing!!!! As well as telling the truth that little Marco just supported a criminal!!!!
sadly its Florida…Florida is full of morons.
Go Val, ours prayers are with you.
Your going to need more that that. Right Now.
She’s got my vote!! Someone good here? Finally!! Count me in
@chi shad A police chief that doesn’t respect her former co workers
@Lakers Media blind loyalty isnt respect.
This “Lakers Media” fool is nothing but a troll. Stop arguing with him.
@Lakers Media YOU’RE A Wingnut!!
@Spunky1991 AGREED!!
🗣Yay Ms Demings!
“You GOT this!” Let’s go Big Blue! 💙
Na an incumbent republican is not loosing in Florida stop being delusional
@Lakers Media yeah. Like trump won ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha you’re delusional
😍😘🥰 LOL. Watch the pendulum
She has my Fla vote! She is a great person and leader! Excellent background.
You go, VAL! Donations will come your way from this woman in Montana.
