Ron DeSantis, America's Cornelius Fudge???.

Cornelius Fudge has just sent Professor Umbrage to Hogwarts to call truth lies and to inspect the work of teachers, making sure they conform to the false narrative about Voldemort.

Why, why, why have I heard no one refer to DeSantis as Cornelius Fudge?!?! Is Harry Potter passé? It’s new to me and I thought of DeSantis right away after reading about Fudge’s treatment of the education of young wizards.

Nothing against Harry Potter books. I'm sure it is my loss.

...is that Fudge had to finally accept the fact that Voldemort had returned...and his resistance to the truth cost him his position!

Do you really think that DeSantis has the capability of admitting the truth or that his personal Floridian cult will seek his resignation?

DeSantis is more like Hitler...he's cultivating those who share his vision at the state level...and wants to bring it onto the national stage.

And he has the willing support of the majority of Floridians!!!
