He’s doing a good job in one sense. By causing total systemic collapse with policy choices in FL, he’s demonstrating how terrible Republican ideas are in practice. The party can no longer hide behind “Democrats won’t let us enact these changes,” and now has to change tack to “ignore your lying eyes.”
I hope more voters take the time to look out the window before making their next choice.

I just have to say - looking from the outside in - “fair & freedom” is a terrible political slogan
