Probably anyone who is sick of seeing this turd in the media. Just like Trump and Musk the more you talk about them, good or bad, the better they feel and the more their profile is raised in the media. These guys are raging narcissists. They don’t care if the attention is good or bad, only that you are paying attention to them.
My biggest problem with it is the implication that DeSantis has a mental illness, or that if he had a mental illness that would be the problem with him. Being fascist is not a mental illness.

Psychology isn’t necessary to figure out what’s wrong with DeSantis; you just need a heart.
