    Someone asked me if I was hacked. No. This was my satirical response to @RepDeSantis using the word "monkey" for the first time in any of his 150 television interviews since being in office - and for it to be in reference to his new Black opponent for Governor.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1034849677521379328 …

    Hey Florida, Quit the honkey business (that's a real saying right?) and elect Andrew Gillum to be your next governor. Don't cracker around (people say that in real life right?) and vote for Ron DeSantis. That would be KKKrazy (normal spelling, right?)

        They deserve this response. DeSantis knew what he was saying, and he meant it! He’s a racist and they don’t like a taste of their own medicine.

        I’ve been waiting all morning for them to provide other videos of him using the word monkey as he so frequently does according to his campaign. Tick tock.....

        It's sad that some folks don't get satire but they love dog whistle politics.

        Thinking now it was a two fold test balloon. A) What will the blowback be? Trumpy or Deplorable? B) How crazy can we make the left look? They blew this way out of proportion and are too unstable to hold office. They now have their answer. Best defense? Calm, controlled response

        He threw in "articulate" too, as if it wasn't already clear enough.

        “Monkey this up” isn’t even a phrase. If you Google it, the only hit is this morning’s clip of @RepDeSantis saying it about his black opponent. https://twitter.com/stevemorris__/status/1034800249985003521 …
