DeSantis’ Invokes The Top Gun Image In New Campaign Ad Dubbed ‘Top Gov’ [VIDEO]
Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis took inspiration from the “Top Gun” film series in his latest campaign ad where he dishes on how to combat the mainstream media’s lies while bolstering the self-imposed moniker “Top Gov.”
On August 22nd, Governor DeSantis dropped his latest campaign ad in the vein of the popular Tom Cruise-led film franchise, where the Florida governor feigns as though he’s teaching a class of recruits on how to navigate the spin that the mainstream media oft perpetuates.

“Good morning ladies and gentlemen, this is your governor speaking. Today’s training evolution: dogfighting. Taking on the corporate media. The rules of engagement are as follows – number one, don’t fire unless fired upon. But when they fire, you fire back with overwhelming force.”
Governor DeSantis in the advert also shares two other rules in this media “dogfighting” course, adding to “never ever back down from a fight,” and “don’t accept their narrative.”

The campaign ad comes on the heels of a recent ruling handed down by a Florida judge that found a portion of Florida’s Stop WOKE law unconstitutional.
On August 18th, U.S. District Judge Mark Walker found that the provision within the Stop Woke law that prohibits private employers instituting certain employee trainings surrounding racial topics infringes on the First Amendment rights of the employers/business owners.
While the Florida law sought to end critical race theory-based discussions in the workplace and allow employees to file suit against private employers for subjecting them to potentially offensive materials in this realm, the First Amendment conflicts alongside the vagueness of the law itself rendered it partially unenforceable.
Of course, this isn’t the first time Governor DeSantis’ administration has attracted the likes of legal challenges regarding laws he helped get pushed through in the Sunshine State.
Earlier in 2022, Governor DeSantis was on the receiving end of numerous hit pieces and legal challenges to the Parental Rights in Education law, with bad actors smearing the law as “Don’t Say Gay,” despite the law having zero provisions or elements banning the use of the word “gay” in public school settings.
Additionally, Governor DeSantis has attracted lawsuits over Florida’s 15-week abortion ban, measures to allow lawsuits against social media companies who de-platform political candidates, laws that helped tighten up election policies/practices, and his anti-rioting law that came to fruition in the midst of intense BLM riots that shook the country throughout the summer of 2020.
Needless to say, most of the media attacks and framings against these pieces of legislation in Florida were given the bad-faith mainstream media treatment – hence, the premise of his latest campaign ad talking about how to navigate such media attacks.
Governor DeSantis is currently running for reelection, having gone unopposed during the primary period, with the primary election where his Democratic opponent will be chosen taking place on August 23rd.
