I guess the point of my post wasn’t obvious. So I apologise for that. I can see how it was poorly written. But it’s funny how you think you know me because of that.
He’s doing his best to destroy Florida, and in doing so, he may drive people away. Maybe he hopes that democrats and woke people will leave.
What then? Sure he may have a state full of republican supporters that worship Trump. But that would leave a massive vacant hole in tax revenue, fewer people to work specific jobs etc, a significantly worse off state. Is that what he really wants?
So my point was, let the good people leave, who recognize their lives would be better off somewhere else. What would florida look like as a result? It’s a hypothetical thought experiment.
I’m not explaining this very well because it’s late and I’m tired. I’m also apparently woke, supporter of LGQT, transgender, women’s rights, BLM etc etc. So I’ve completely confused you! My bad.
