Beat me to it. It helps when the states like California pay taxes that go to shitty run red states in the south.

Florida is NOT a donor state. No time to link but what you just posted doesn't say that. Florida IS better than Iowa, though, for the record in what I just looked at.
You sure you're reading that right? Florida is 3rd in ratio of Federal Funding to Federal income tax paid at 0.37.
Washington and New Jersey are tied for first at 0.35.
We do have a lot of rich F's down here paying income tax you know
Florida’s budget surplus was due to Federal Covid funds not DeSantis' budgetary leadership.Florida is doing just fine.

True. But Florida maintained that surplus through 2022.
California...for example...did not. Spent it all...
Maybe, because they took the Federal money and then didn't spend it for the intended purposes. Now, those dollars are gone. Let's see what kind of budget surplus he's able to achieve without Biden's help.
Fair enough….
I’d rather the Covid surplus be handled how Florida handled it then California.

Instead, he takes and you give credit for something he didn't do.
Where did the surplus come from? Was it pandemic money? Do some research.Florida is doing just fine.

It is a choice.
Just like being left-handed or right-handed is a choice. Your brain chooses your handedness; just like it figures out if you are gay or not, based on the people you are attracted to and connect with.
This sounds a whole lot like the 2020 GOP platform of Whatever Trump Wants. Red Meat has bullied his own party into submission.
I thought Florida was one of the biggest employers of undocumented workers. Will DeSantis punish those employers or just the migrants?
He may be president some day, but the country will definitely not be better off.
This little Nazi recently criticized FSU and to my knowledge, has never set foot on campus. He claims it is a "sprawling bureaucracy dedicated to promoting left-wing narratives". DeSantis recently put him on the board of New College, and now he is going after FSU for some reason, even though there is no basis for his claims.

Anyone who has to justify everything he does using terms like woke are playing to an ignorant and uninformed base.
