Ron DeSantis Says He's a Christian. He Should Read the Parable of the Good Samaritan.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis appears to be getting a bit big for his britches. He's not only imagining himself as the nation's next president as he competes for the Republican nomination, but he recently envisioned himself as one of Jesus' disciples during one of history's greatest dramas.

"These guys all went out and they dedicated their lives to spreading the gospel," DeSantis said in a televised interview on the Christian Broadcasting Network. "I look back at that and would love to have been able to be there with them." Some died horrific deaths as martyrs. None of them sought or gained governmental power, so it's an interesting take from an ambitious politician.
