47. I'm not sure. He is one of the governors whose poll numbers are tanking.

And all the major population areas except Jacksonville and Pensacola are blue. Unless he wants to overrule them he is pretty helpless to get the cities up and running.

And we have millions of citizens trying to sign up for unemployment and running up against a system designed to fail. In 6 weeks he will be the most hated man in the state. 3 million people unable to get the support they have coming to them and having to put everything on credit cards. He is being crucified in all the papers.

Plus, Disney and the other parks will totally ignore him and insure things are safe before reopening. They will tell him to pound sand.

I look for him to freeze. Do as little as possible.
