Of course he gets it. DeSantis is an intelligent man and lawyer. Here’s the thing; He cannot lose with this stance. It’s a no-brainer.
He gets to appeal to GOP voters up front and hits 'em again when he’s shot down. “Damned woke mind virus Democrat communist haters and legislating-from-the-bench liberal judges! Keep voting for me and we’ll eventually win!”
I mean… if the USSC ends up ruling in June that a sitting president can, as an official act, order the assassination of a political rival… maybe he gets a visit from an officially-ordered spec ops team to “nullify his opposition”?
Who fucking knows at this point. I feel like we’re rapidly approaching the point where nobody’s even pretending that the rules even exist anymore.

He’s term limited as governor. Question is what he does next.
Hopefully fucking croak somehow.
There’s plenty of swap in Florida
Yes, but only for one term. He is eligible again after sitting out for one term, unless of course they manage to change their Constitution.

Eats babies whist dressed in full drag.
That’s optimistic. The leaders of the fascist GOP seem to have been given pretty much free rein by the extremely overcautious Garland DOJ.
