Fishback for Florida governor? Any thoughts?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: March 12th, 2026 7:02 AM Author: Cerebral Main People Home This guy named fishback is running in the GOP primary for Florida governor and he's moving up in the polls.. pretty big on Twitter / x..
kind of populist but he's not all that right wing as say DeSantis. Any thoughts on him? He's a fairly good speaker but he has kind of a nerd vibe |

Date: March 12th, 2026 8:02 AM Author: marvelous parlor people shit on him for being young, performative, unethical, profligate, a phony, a shyster, all of which are true, but the only criticism that really matters is that he adopted most of his political platform more or less yesterday to take advantage of groyper-adjacent ideas as a “gap in the political market” in service to pursuing a career as a public person. he and bari weiss were gushing over each other no less than 12 months ago before a few reply guys picked up on him on X and he suddenly leaned into being an over-the-top fuentes guy, yet he is still close to vivek who he was using to signal boost in 2024. compare to trump who came out swinging on day one with a highly risky platform entirely of his own invention, that existed basically nowhere in the mainstream political discourse, and forcemeed it into the public consciousness to the point that it became the entire political conversation. fishback is a malleable opportunist of little conviction highly susceptible retarded outside forces and nefarious financial interests, and otherwise liable to pulling gay stunts at the expense of sticking to the mission as a serious person. he’s vivek if vivek were or could be a groyper and would probably do better podcasting. not to say any other candidate is appealing or that he’s any worse.

That this person thinks they are capable of Governing a state of 20m+ people is almost as insane as the fact that they're getting any traction at all.

Date: March 12th, 2026 11:25 AM Author: Odious keepsake machete I am fine with grifter types piping up in Congress or in state legislatures. There is a time and a place for that and they can be helpful to push otherwise conservative governors and Presidents to the right. But running a fucking state is a different story.
"But he's so based bro." No, he's a grifter faggot.
I am not saying someone needs to have built some big business or whatever. But this guy is just a grifter. There is a lot of space between total grifter faggot and CEO billionaire. |

Date: March 12th, 2026 1:19 PM Author: curious roast beef pit You are 100% correct here. Before we get to “do I find this guy’s current statements amusing?” and “is he pandering to my preferred group?” there should be a baseline litmus test of competence. Like could this guy manage a small business or department to achieve at least average performance? If not, perhaps state governor is not a good fit.

Date: March 12th, 2026 3:44 PM Author: Odious keepsake machete Exactly. And let's be real, most government work is actually pretty dull and process-oriented. For every HOT BUTTON ISSUE, there are 10 quotidian matters to deal with. All of which require bringing various coalitions and groups together.
A GREAT WAY to turn people off from sensible and popular right wing positions is to have a BASED grifter faggot fuck up the table stakes stuff. People aren't going to forgive poor disaster response or even garbage collection because you want to deport illegals.
It's like these people get it backwards. Fishback should run for the Florida state legislature if he's serious...but he's not. He's a grifter faggot who should be put in a prison. |

Date: March 12th, 2026 9:44 PM Author: marvelous parlor you’re not wrong in spirit but i don’t think it’s a bad thing to keep the door open to young, energetic, enterprising bros who are clearly serious people and whose heads are in the right place policy-wise from taking office. the “successful businessman,” or successful anything these days really, is often a cucked faggot who succeeded in part because he knows who to suck up to and who specializes in “backroom dealing” while presenting a very different persona publicly. and of course the career politician type has his own faults. if we limit ourselves to “ex state legislators” or whatever we are just limiting ourselves to a population of shitty retards who couldn’t hack it elsewhere and who love to preen for the camera, they aren’t that different from grifters. a fresh individual full of energy and with the right policy in mind is not necessarily a bad thing. ultimately managing the sanitation service isn’t that hard and there are career bureaucrats in place to manage that, and if he has the right political objectives in mind and is a generally smart person he won’t drop the ball on the other day-to-day shit, which an outsider businessman with no political experience or a career legislator with no executive experience could just as easily neglect himself. the problem with the young grifter type is that they don’t really believe in anything but making a splash, beyond maybe a few core political slogans. so just as fuentes wakes up yesterday and gets on camera and says immigration is a “dead issue,” fishback might wake up one day and decide that it’s “based” to create incentives for catholic immigration on the theory that they need to keep the rate of catholic immigration above the rate of muslim immigration, and before you know it florida is haiti. so the real problem with grifters is that they have no core convictions and poor instincts and are susceptible to exceptionally stupid ideas that might seem “based” but are just retarded.
think the fairest thing is to judge each guy individually. if the 2023 u of florida tight end entered the race tomorrow and was clearly serious and competent and not acting like a preening fag then i'm for it. |

Date: March 13th, 2026 4:31 PM Author: Odious keepsake machete I don't think people need to be uber successful to run for office at all. But this guy is just a slimeball. And lol at your post basically saying "running a state government is easy." I'm not saying it's putting man on the moon, but it is a huge leap to go from "fired from a hedge fund for poor performance --> grifting online --> running one of the largest states in the union."
There is a lot of ground between cuckservative and obvious grifter who says based things.
