“If that is true... wow.” — iamjohnoliver on GovRonDeSantis
The early part of the Florida governor’s backstory is fairly by-the-numbers: He grew up in the Sunshine State, where he excelled at baseball and even made it to the Little League World Series. He attended Yale as an undergrad, then went on to Harvard Law School and eventually joined the Navy in an attorney capacity.
While he married his wife Casey in 2009, one can safely presume that he had dated other women over the years, but they must not all have been sticklers for speaking words real good. Because DeSantis developed what Oliver described as “the most bizarre dating tactic I have ever heard” in order to weed out the ladies who wouldn’t be wife material for the politician formerly known as Ron DeSanctimonious .
“According to a former classmate, DeSantis would apparently tell dates he liked Thai food,” Oliver explained, which so far seems fine… except Ron would pronounce it asfood. On purpose. “And if they corrected him, he would make up an excuse and leave because, ‘he didn’t want a girlfriend who corrected him,’” which explains a lot about his governing style.
Later in the show, Oliver described Fox News’ devotion to DeSantis by saying, “I’ll put it this way: If Fox News ever went on a date with Ron DeSantis, they definitely wouldn’t correct him when it called it ‘thigh food.’”
