    They're both right wing assholes.

    Newsom said he isn’t running either yet now he spends much of his time talking national politics and running ads in Florida. They always say they aren’t running, until they are

    lol.. we were like mid point on the Covid deaths/hospitalzations.
    But we didn't go thru more then a 30 day mandatory lockdown - that means we didnt destroy our economy.
    Plus we kept kids in school. that right there is heads above other states

    Too many damn blue states moving down here though, especaily NY - which is losing population
    When i moved here in 1999 (just in time for Bush v Gore) we were at 16 million. now our pop. is 22 million

    I keep telling everyone not to come down -the roads are jammed,but they keep coming
    People vote with their feet

    DeSantis is simply Trump with less insults on Twitter, and more culture war.

    They don't realize the strength and following of DeSantis.

    But they will. It will be another shock to the system requiring safe spaces and cuddle puppies.

    De ja vu, so to speak. And so well deserved

    Wouldn’t seem to make much sense to announce a Presidential run when you have an upcoming reelection battle so he’s saying the right thing to state he isn’t running. But assuming he wins all bets are out the window I’d think
