A Florida state Democrat representative thought she had Governor DeSantis over a barrel.
Florida State Rep. Anna Eskamani was quick to go after DeSantis for holding an event in an LGBTQ+ community.
However, she should have checked her facts better before mouthing off.
Oops
DeSantis was co-hosting an event with Dave Rubin.
Eskamani took her shoot to try to take a dig at the event center and the governor when she sent out this tweet…
And it’s not just DeSantis; the guy hosting him is awful too pic.twitter.com/J4Z2ZnKfzH

Well, if she had done her due diligence, she would have found that Rubin is a member of the LGBTQ+ community…
Not only married, but this picture was at noted white supremacist @RealCandaceO’s wedding!
I’m sure she’d be happy to sit down with @AnnaForFlorida too! https://t.co/6wOFj8sv2c

The Twitterverse was also rather quick to call her out over her “gatekeeping.”
Anna, @RubinReport is a member of the LGBTQ+ community. Bad look for you to be gatekeeping.

This is not the own you think it is, Representative.
Maybe do a little research on who @RubinReport is before proceeding? 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️

After the backlash went viral, Rubin even decided to invite the uneducated Dem to the event…
Hi Representative Eskamani, my husband and I would like to invite you to the event as our guest. First row seats, let me know… https://t.co/opclrfRuWX
— Dave Rubin (@RubinReport) May 27, 2022
Eskamani eventually responded with some name-calling, but Rubin again extended an olive branch…
Despite your obvious homophobia and bigotry (you think all gay people must think the same way, which is the very definition of prejudice), my offer to come to the show still stands. https://t.co/YkEeHHnFtd

I think we can all see who the hateful people are here… the Democrats.
You see, unless you think the way they tell you to think, you are the enemy, period.
This time, however, it backfired big league.
