We're all very upset about Governor DeSantis basically turning Florida into Nazi Germany. He's banning books, rewriting history, controlling media narratives, suppressing votes...

We all realize that if he gets elected president, that's his agenda for the whole country, right?

If a Republican wins the next election, they'll also take back the Senate and retain the House.

So...

You know...

This is life and death on a grand scale.

@willallen it's true.

One thing to understand is that while what he's doing is extremely heavy handed, it is in keeping with the traditionalist views held by most of the country, including many POC.

Nevertheless, I think he's going to have a hard time winning a general election. First, he lacks Trump's showmanship and charisma. Second, Trump's win, he ran successfully on his *lack* of track record, which a lot of people took with a sense of possibility (as bizarre as that is to me).

DeSantis is going to run on his "decisiveness" and Florida's growth. But he is going to be very attackable. The smart Dem strategy will be to ignore his values and attack his methods and results.
