Twitter was having too much fun on Monday memefying Ron DeSantis.

DeSantis tried to play it cool, but he looked bamboozled. “I’m not a candidate, so we’ll see if and when that changes,” DeSantis said, with his eyes wide open and his head shaking from side to side. The clip quickly trended on Twitter with tweets pouring in from all sides of the political aisle to goof on the “bobblehead” governor. “DeSantis is literally malfunctioning lol,” one tweeter joked. “Ron DeSantis’s costume is beginning to rip at the seams,” The New Republic wrote. DeSantis trailed Trump in a Wall Street Journal poll released Friday 24 percent to 48 percent.
