General Discussion
Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI have a question about Ron DeSantis.
What is his reason for getting involved with sending the migrants to Martha's Vineyard? Florida is not a border state. Is this posturing for a 2024 run?
BTW - I refer to DeSantis as the Oily Turd, just on general principles.

(6,606 posts)DeSantis is using Texas migrants for a political stunt thinking he can galvanize his voters without pissing off any Florida migrants. It's going to backfire bigly.
