Sabatini, a conservative Lake County commissioner [and a douche who is representing these assholes], also claimed the chapter was really shut down because it hosted Florida Republican gubernatorial candidate James Fishback on March 11.

Fishback has repeatedly called his GOP rival, Representative Byron Daniels, a “slave.” Daniels is Black. Sabatini said that event was used to deactivate the group and replace it with more “vanilla” conservatives.

Apparently, vanilla conservative just means conservatives that are not openly racist
