FL-GOV: DeSantis teaches child to 'build the wall' with blocks in new ad

Florida gubernatorial candidate Ron DeSantis (R) released a campaign advertisement on Monday in which he shows his support for President Trump by teaching his child to "build the wall" with blocks.

"Everyone knows my husband Ron DeSantis is endorsed by President Trump," DeSantis's wife, Casey, says to open the ad. "But he's also an amazing dad. Ron loves playin' with the kids."

The clip then features Ron DeSantis saying "build the wall" as his child places blocks atop one another. The candidate also reads "The Art of The Deal" to a child and teaches another how to talk by saying "Make America Great Again."

"People say Ron is all Trump, but he is so much more, I just thought you should know," Casey DeSantis says as the advertisement ends.

As a Floridian, why should this be an issue for my state's politics?

this country is going down real fast. The thought that anyone would actually vote for that idiot is beyond imagination.

he's teaching children Trumpster ideology.

Good to know.

Between this and picking a fight with Cortez, I think his wife should be concerned about his mental faculties and political acumen, rather than narrating ads that prove exactly the opposite of the ad's intention:

He's Trumpian 24/7.

But please Ron and Casey, keep on keeping on because when you're digging hole, Dems are quite willing to watch and cheer.

Having his son "detain" another kid in a laundry hamper. No sense going only half way...
