Since we know their base is unhinged, the Democratic owners of businesses should enact something.... anything... that will trigger them. Or, maybe one of the few Democrat-held town councils enact something that they don't like. You know, something sensible and logical. Depending on the choice, it will goad them into action and that will prove that this is nothing more than an attempt to protect those businesses and officials that he likes. Because we all know that once those idiots start protesting at the residences of those who have upset them, Florida law enforcement will just not do anything. And then they will come up with some little bit of warblegarble that will attempt to prove that they were not breaking the law, but those who protest His Excellency's cronies were. It will show that this whole thing is a bunch of bull. Yes, we know that, but it seems some of the population have to have things shoved into their faces before they will even start to consider that thing. Hell, there is a subset of that group that will only change their minds after they suffer irreversible damage, which is sad really. But, whatever it takes to make sure this country understands what is taking place in these rethug bastions and what that means for the country as a whole.

is its very likely he'll have to fight this in court for years, using Florida tax payer dollars to pay legal fees. Florida has too many needs to waste money on a frivolous fight.

he says we have the largest budget surplus ever in known times and billions of lawyer fees won't hurt us.

Looking at the way he handled the COVID numbers I sure as hell wouldn't trust his math with my checking account.

Plus he hires and fires until he gets someone to kiss his ass just like tfg.
