REP. BYRON DONALDS (R-Fla.) should be cruising into the Florida governor's mansion, primarily because he possesses the most important currency in GOP politics: Donald Trump's endorsement. But despite that leg up, Donalds has not been able to clear the primary field.

Thirty-year-old DOGE advocate James Fishback is reportedly on the verge of announcing a gubernatorial bid, telling me in an email that he'll make an announcement "imminently." And though he possesses a pipsqueak-ish energy, he also has racked up a little credibility in MAGA circles.

Last week, Politico reported that Trump allies like White House deputy chief of staff James Blair and adviser Alex Bruesewitz had urged Fishback not to run. After that article appeared, both men criticized Fishback for the possibility that he'll launch a scorched-earth primary bid against Donalds, whom Fishback has dubbed "DEI Donalds" and "H1-Byron." In an email to me, Fishback said Donalds is a "slave to his donors." (Donalds is black).

LOL!

Perhaps "major" boazo boi can come along and help cut through all this rightwing bigotry.

To tell us that the people he hangs around with, and who forms his opinions, aren't really racists and bigots who like him in the exact same way a poor dog will return, over and over again, to the human that beats him.

Careful. Calling a Jew racist is anti-semitic.

Why does it say National Debate Champion?

He never won a championship in debate. The records are public.
