Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is urging the state’s pension fund manager to consider legal action against Bud Light’s parent company amid conservative backlash to the beermaker’s recent marketing efforts, the latest attempt by the Republican presidential candidate to inject himself and the state he runs into the country’s culture wars.

At the end of March, Florida’s pension fund held more than 682,000 shares of AB InBev valued at the time at nearly $46 million. The company’s stock price has fallen since then from $66 a share to $58, though it’s still higher than its 52-week low of $44 from September 2022, which was well before the company’s recent controversies.

And this is where I stopped reading. It’s up year over year and he wants to sue? He of course bitches about “woke” while discussing this. Meanwhile he has no shot of winning the primary which makes this all the more pathetic.

DeSantis won't even win the Florida primary.

He's a pathetic fascist loser.
