I don’t.

But I can take a wild guess. It’s all about who is sitting in the chairs of the legislature. People elect folks that won’t shy away from a fight and actually care, people will get a state legislature like the one in Florida.

I’ll take a barroom, back alley street fighter over a frat boy, tassle wearing country club Republican all day.

If I made the rules, lawyers/lobbyists/staffers/rich kids/Chamber of Commerce types are forbidden from holding any office. Except for District Attorney, that job goes with being a lawyer.

Just as no one should be on a school board unless they have a kid in the system. And of people want to know about the budget, let people volunteer their time to go through the budget transparently so taxpayers know where their money is going.

Time to put the rich, country club kid, being groomed for a slot, out to pasture.

Apparently you have not yet heard there are, indeed, RINO’s in the Florida legislature that have been prodded along to adopt controversial legislation by America's Governor - Ron DeSantis.

RINO’s in the Florida legislature don't like DeSantis; he disrupted their cozy relationships with Disney money; pushed back against Big Education and their riotous students; pushed back early on masks; pushed back on DEI racism; and much more.

Attack adults that grew up as rich kids; attack rich Republicans that own county clubs; that doesn't describe Governor DeSantis.
