The only college students more fragile than liberal activist students who want to protest everything are liberal activist students LARPing as serious politicians because they won 200 votes in a student government election.
Such is the case at the University of Florida, where student senators have moved to impeach the student body president, Lauren Lemasters, who dared to vote in favor of Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE) becoming the next university president. The student senate had already taken a vote of no confidence in Lemasters last month for daring to be on the search committee that selected Sasse.

The student body vice president claimed that he would not “stand idly by” while “someone who is a threat to the LGBTQ+ community is about to occupy the highest post on campus.” The student senator who crafted the impeachment resolution said Lemasters should have abstained, which would have changed nothing.
Then again, impeaching Lemasters will also solve nothing, because no one really cares what the student government thinks about most things, especially when it comes to high-level leadership. That’s especially true when that student government is elected with just a 16% turnout on a campus of more than 61,000 students.

Life will not change for most UF students, other than those who will be put at “emotional risk” from campus events that they don’t like. The university selected Sasse and continued moving forward with him because it doesn’t care what the small, loud minority of students who whine and complain about conservatives existing think, even when those students are self-important members of the student government.
