10. deSantis won't be there forever

Florida does have term limits, right?

even if he’s gone, however, it still won’t change the voters there who like what he does.

DeSantis’s changes to Florida affect all of us, but we might not realize it. It hit home to me tonight when I had to write a girlfriend of mine who lives near Treasure Island.

Her son is a police officer in another town. We all know how DeSantis has paid finders fees to get violent New York City cops who have been let go. I was concerned that my friend‘s son might encounter one of these officers that were thrown out of the force here; consequently, I wrote her and sent the article that was posted at DU.

I shudder to think of what could happen if my friend’s. son was paired with or on duty with one of these nyc officers. Imagine a George Floyd type incident, where my friends son would be present and could get drawn into lawsuits that last for years.
