It’s insane. I don’t know what [Ron] DeSantis hopes to do in Florida, and I can’t believe he can marshal that many people to support him. Because most people know when injustice is being done—they sense it themselves, whether they even accept your point of view or not. At least they would be equivocating. They would just say, “Well, that’s what that group of people wants. You know, they’re not harming anyone.”
I just don’t understand it. I don’t understand this whole plowing backwards that so many people are doing in the country. Thank god it’s not a majority yet, and I’m sure it will not become one.
