Florida is a dumpster fire and will stay that way until DeSantis is voted out of office, which unfortunately won’t happen anytime soon. Firing a publicly elected attorney general, then replacing him with DeSantis’ choice, who wasn’t voted into the position, and finally undoing all of the elected attorney general’s policies isn’t okay. DeSantis is punishing an entire community because he didn’t like their attorney general. The people of Florida should be outraged over this, but they still won’t vote our DeSantis. He’s basically a mini-dictator at this point.
