During a CNN Town Hall on Wednesday night, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was asked by Jake Tapper who his favorite Florida Democrat official is, and if he had a top ten list of Democrats he likes in Florida. DeSantis didn't skip a beat in telling Tapper that his favorite Democrat is Broward County Sheriff Gregory Tony, who was appointed as Sheriff of Broward County by Ron DeSantis in January 2019 following the removal of Sheriff Scott Israel in the aftermath of the Parkland school school shooting. When Tony was appointed, he was lauded as being the first black man to become sheriff in Broward County, Florida. Essentially, Tony was a DEI hire, and his record alone should have disqualified him from ever being Sheriff.
