Is Ron DeSantis a Robot? You Decide.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) faces many obstacles in his effort to prevail over Donald Trump for the Republican presidential nomination—and one main one is that he’s not known for being a likable guy. In fact, ABC News obtained a video from his 2018 debate prep sessions in which an advisor told him to write the word “LIKABLE” in all caps at the top of his notepad for his debate with Democratic gubernatorial nominee Andrew Gillum. “I do the same thing, ‘cause I have the same personality, we’re both aggressive,” the advisor said.

It’s possible that people don’t like DeSantis because he does things like ban abortion, bark at reporters, attack LGBTQ people, and restrict educators’ ability to accurately teach history. It’s also possible that people do not like him because he acts like a robot doing a poor impression of a human. Or...is DeSantis actually a robot? Or maybe a pull-string doll? A tiny alien wearing a human skin suit like in Men in Black? An android planted here to spy on us?

Please consider the following evidence.

Are we looking at a human in this video or a doll with a string in its back that, once pulled, makes the doll say “WOKE BAD” six times in 20 seconds? (Meanwhile, Casey DeSantis dutifully claps in her gaudy pageant dress.)

This has the exact energy as the “How do you, fellow kids?” meme—except, instead of being an old, DeSantis is an android.

It looks like his “Smile 3000" program booted up and then quickly crashed. Someone needs to unplug him and try again in 15 seconds.

Even his security guard seems extremely alarmed by how this entity is interacting with a human baby. (The baby clearly knows something, too.)

This genuinely looks like the pained, confused expressions Sophia the Robot makes. And she’s famously not a human!

Someone somewhere definitely pressed a button to try to contort DeSantis’ face into something that kind of resembles an expression meant to convey enjoyment.

In April, before he officially announced his run, DeSantis practically short-circuited in response to a question about Trump. His head bobbled in a this-robot-is-malfunctioning kind of way as he insisted, “I’m not a candidate,” with huge bug eyes. It was weird! Quick follow-up, Governor: Are you a homo sapien?

Human skin suit theory.

At the recent Faith & Freedom Coalition, DeSantis said he just got back from San Francisco, where he immediately saw “people using fentanyl” upon landing. Riddle me this: Can a human identify someone that has fentanyl from afar with the naked eye?

New theory: All photos of DeSantis talking to voters are AI-generated.

Casey speak. Ronbot rest.
