DeSantis’s contempt for dissent and his crackdown on critics should not be discounted. This is the profile of a constitutional ignoramus, a bully and a strongman. Voters should be forewarned. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/11/21/desantis-republican-free-speech-trump/
Beware, DeSantis is as much a threat to America as Trump

The governor has shown that he has no fondness for constitutional rights.

Before then, FL's COVID death rate was near the national average.

Since then, FL has suffered highest COVID death rate among large states and 4th highest death rate among all states:
