Thank you. So it is apparent that it is quite common in Florida for sitting governors to be able to run for federal office without resigning to do so. Bad news for the EverTrumpers who are whining that Desantis is breaking the law when he is not even a declared candidate...
“They often go on these types of trips while the legislature is in session, since they are not part of the legislature. The job of the governor is to sign or veto the legislation once passed,.”
Well at least you’re acknowledging that much of DeSantis successes are due to the actions of the legislature. And yet a good executive plays a role in the legislative process, but DeSantis is running on automatic pilot, so in that regard, you’re correct in saying that his absence will have little effect on any legislation that reaches his desk.
“As far as the flooding and shortages, any competent governor should be able to monitor the response from anywhere.”
Any competent manager wants to be onsite to visit an emergency. It’s the only way you learn the full story of what’s really happening on the ground.
“Another thing to consider is that these types of trips are usually planned weeks or months in advance.”
Then cancel it.
Meh...Gov DeSantis is leading a Florida trade mission to key foreign countries which also happen to be strategic US allies...there’s nothing remotely illegal about that.
Has Pres. Trump met with a single foreign leader in the last four years?
