(13,616 posts)ignore florida, right, and wonder why you lose it. Bottom line is, if our northern neoghbors in Georgia can go blue, any state can go blue.

(13,616 posts)considerign that many of our votes were taken out by Desantis? We wanted them to vote, and we made an election victory to ensure they coudl vote, which, thanks to support from trump the ignored. Spare us your high horse, especially as many of us are on the frotn lines.

If you're wishing evil on all Floridians, not sparing even one out of the half who voted Democratic, is it okay if I do the same for you? Tell me which half produces undifferentiated malice toward 22 million people, and I'll wish that half shrivels right up and the government never spends any money on the other half.
Hopefully that'll happen before we arrive in FL ourselves for the winter. Because, yes, I am taking this indulgence of malice personally.

(9,176 posts)of 2000, 2004, 2016, 2018, 2020, I think of Dems in deep-red states, bearing abuse for governments they abhor.
What I would say about Florida is there needs to be root and branch reform of the local party.

(32,777 posts)I specifically said republicans. I am not a teacher but I am in an office everyday that is located in a red county that thinks the virus is a hoax.

(3,322 posts)My family already only spends our money in Blue states when we travel. When we must travel through a red state we only spend the least amount possible to get us through the state and then if possible we choose blue counties. They have had their intervention and they chose their drug of ignorance. We are washing our hands with them.
