.@GovRonDeSantis Partner Goes Missing, Discovered DRUNK in Trashed Hotel Outside Disney World Posted on April 10, 2024 by Nathan Kamal16 Comments Credit: DeSantis A key member of Governor Ron DeSantis' Florida GOP has been discovered in a trashed hotel room outside of the Walt Disney World Resort after having been reported missing for five days. This is yet another in the embarrassing series of high-profile scandals surrounding the DeSantis administration in the last year and unlikely to help the politician's fallen image any.

Despite his Ivy League education (which includes degrees from both Yale University and Harvard Law School) and a professional career almost entirely spent running for office, DeSantis adopted the public image of a working-class maverick, winning him two terms as governor. He also campaigned for the GOP nomination for the 2024 presidential election, eventually conceding to Donald J. Trump after a poor showing in the Iowa Caucus.

After a series of lawsuits between DeSantis, his Central Florida Tourism Oversight District board of supervisors, and Walt Disney World, things seemed to have settled down a little bit, just in time for another GOP scandal.
Credit: Disney/DeSantis, edited by ITM George Riley, the executive director of the Florida GOP, was reported missing by his family on Friday (per South Florida Sun Sentinel) after he told his sister and father he was headed to a Hampton Inn on Centerview Boulevard in Kissimmee for a “business meeting.” Apparently, once there, he checked out of his room, booked a different room in the same hotel, and began an alcohol-fueled binge that eventually necessitated the presence of an Osceola Sheriff's deputy and other Orange County deputies.
The assistant manager of the Hampton Inn reported that George Riley was “regularly purchasing alcohol, and he purchased so much from the store inside the hotel that he had to order more” and had “broken the electric blinds in the room and had urinated and vomited throughout.” Credit: Osceola County He later asked to extend his stay but was denied ” due to [his] excessive drinking and damage caused to the room,” which necessitated extensive cleaning and repair. The GOP executive director was later discovered via his cell phone in B Resort & Spa in Lake Buena Vista outside Walt Disney World.
George Riley apologized for his actions to the Tampa Bay Times, saying, “I'm deeply sorry. I have been dealing with alcoholism and mental health issues. I will pay for any damages that were caused. I apologize to the employees for my bad behavior and I will be seeking help soon. I'll be seeking help so I can be a better father, a better person, and a better all-around employee.” Riley is an influential member of the Florida GOP, which is heavily dominated by Ron DeSantis, making his a de facto close ally to the politician. Riley previously served as the Florida GOP executive director from 2016 to 2019 and has since acted as Executive Director for Conservatives for Clean Energy-Florida and as a Senior Advisor to the Party.

Governor DeSantis has been signing a lot of new laws and working for the state of Florida, but it seems only a matter of time before the GOP embarrasses him again.
