Kareem Abdul-Jabbar critiques potential presential candidate

Ron DeSantis, the Governor of Florida, has emerged as a potential presidential candidate for the 2024 elections. Amid all the frenzy and news rush, DeSantis found his way into Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s newsletter. In the latest edition of Kareem’s substack, the Milwaukee Bucks legend discussed a polarising headline related to DeSantis.?

The 2x Finals MVP titled the segment,?“Florida, Where leadership goes to Die” under the Politics category. Subsequently, in the segment, Abdul-Jabbar covered the headline about how DeSantis hired a sexist professor. According to an article by the Daily Beast, Scott Yenor of Boise State University, in the past, on multiple occasions, has given ‘the greatest number of sexist statements’.?

Consequently, while covering Yenor’s and DeSantis’ association, Abdul-Jabbar candidly shared his thoughts on the former’s statements. He said, “It gets worse. Yenor also warns that feminism is a threat to the American way of life…The least we should expect from those put in high positions of education is that their guiding principles are based on opinions formed by research, studies, facts, and logic?you know, Education. But this kind of incel nonsense is just personal religious conviction being force-fed down the gullets of our children to produce a pasty p?t? of bitter conservatism.”

Furthermore, Abdul-Jabbar also harped on DeSantis and his actions. He said,?“Unable to build his time machine to transport the U.S. to Kansas in 1950, DeSantis contents himself being a museum curator, painstakingly recreating the nostalgic era in Florida…”

He concluded the segment with a bold statement,?”..real men wouldn’t be afraid of women having the freedom to choose their path, they’d help make sure those choices were their own.”
