Tim Miller on Fla. GOP Selling ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ Merch: ‘You’re Just Trying to Depress Me on Midday’
EXCERPT:
JANSING: “What it has, though, Tim, been a big plus for the MAGA base, I mean, the Florida Republican Party is selling all kinds of Alligator Alcatraz merchandise. There you see some of the t-shirts, they've got hats. One Florida Republican Party official said that the traffic to their website and the donation links have skyrocketed by 400 to 500 percent. So why at this point would they pause or slow down what they're doing?”
MILLER: “Now you're just trying to depress me on midday cable news, Chris?”
JANSING: “I'm just -- I'm just stating the facts. Just stating the facts, Tim Miller.”
MILLER: “I guess some people are attracted to cruelty and trolling. That's certainly not -- I mean, you know, it's certainly something we've seen. It's certainly something we've seen from the MAGA base in particular, but it's something that's human nature at a certain level.”
