The Republicans are woke on steroids 😂

[thans]

The party against cancel culture wants to cancel something they don't like lmao

[gmanette]

And we wonder why we are laughing stocks here in Florida

[janplays]

This has to be unconstitutional on so many levels

[richardrubin]

Who would have thought Florida would try to become an extension of their southern Island neighbor Cuba.Only one viable political party? I can't see this flying nationally Ronnie boy.

🍿🍿👀well this ought to be down right entertaining😳 Human corruptions knows no boundaries nor loyalties. Good luck people of the human race☮️

[doggobork-bork]

This is what our representatives are doing with their time? They are showing us who they are..believe them. They would have people in arm bands if they could.

[iesusegoconfidoinvobis]

Eliminating a political party is silly. As a nation, our strength comes from several points of view. A political party that stood for slavery over a 150 years ago, doesn't reflect what they support today. I'm not a Democrat, but we need ideas from the other side.

[beverly]

This is ridiculous. For one thing the parties have switched their stance on the issue of slavery decades ago. The Republican Party of today is much closer to the Democrat Party of the Civil War.
FYI…I’m NPA not a Democrat 🤷🏼‍♀️

[Tpapierce]

I’m a repub and this is bull! I like good solid debate from both sides, even if I don’t agree, everyone has a right in America too have a voice! Period

[promeitheus]

Well this sounds multiplicitously unconstitutional.

[notthatronjohnson]

Just shows how little our elected officials have to do. A joke by a jokester. The reason most run, steady paycheck and time on their hands.

[vincentgiasullo]

As a Republican, I don’t think this is the right move.

[garcare]

Another thing I think they should probably let them do it then tell him if they eliminate a Democratic Party or any party they won't get any aid from the rest of the country

[elizabethpenny]

Clowns to the left of me, , , jokers to the right, , , here I am, , , stuck in the middle with you…. Wow….

[axe]

Getting rid of pro-slavery parities is kind of a win win.

[centredoorplugsthornton]

Rethink aid to Florida after Helene romps through.

[paanne]

He is getting everyone's attention, but I doubt if the bill will pass.

[pricelessppp]

You democrats would love to do that to our party.
