Yet again, Gov. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., a Republican superstar, is in the crosshairs of the liberal mainstream media. The reason is that the Biden administration continues not to act upon the effects of constant overflow emanating from an open border here in the United States.
Florida has seen the impacts of this, and DeSantis finally had enough.
He decided to lay the issue at the doorsteps of the federal government, as well the doorsteps of the left's elite residing in Martha’s Vineyard.
DeSantis’s move sets a precedent for how issues affecting everyday Americans should be moved to the spotlight. Then, maybe the media and federal government will finally acknowledge we have severe problems in our country.
The left would rather virtue signal the dog whistles of racism or sexism, instead of helping citizens. Fortunately, DeSantis knew to address the immigration issue head on.
However, this is not the first time the governor has made the news.
On multiple problems the nation, as a whole, has dealt with, he has been one of the foremost conservative leaders to stand up and offer solutions.
Whether that was combatting nonsensical COVID policy through fighting federal government-inspired corporate mandates, rallying for school board members to be defeated by conservative allies, or fighting media lies about him in general, DeSantis has become the ultimate mentor amd warrior when it comes to revealing the left’s hypocrisies.
It seems he continues to one-up his gubernatorial colleagues, as well. Governor Greg Abbott, R-Texas, sent some migrants to D.C., but DeSantis followed up by sending them to Martha’s Vineyard.
Before any other governor of any other state, during the COVID-19 pandemic, DeSantis opened up Florida to ensure that lockdowns did not harm the state’s economic reliability on tourism, any further than it had to be.
The governor was one of the first significant figures to criticize the ridiculous nature of Dr. Anthony Fauci’s fascist recommendations for state health departments.
Even if some of his decisions seemed unpopular then, DeSantis was eventually proven to be correct.
His efficiency and efficacy is showing up in polling results also. He's currently projected to trounce consistent loser Charlie Crist in the Florida gubernatorial election this November.
Regardless of rumors regarding his eventual presidential aspirations, Ron DeSantis is simply showing other conservatives how to govern and lead in a swing state.
Arguably, some of his positions and policies may not have been politically well-advised when he implemented them. Still, taking those risks have established him as one of the most beloved Florida governors in recent memory.
Republicans always seem willing to cave on their principles, attempting to appeal to moderates; even caving to leftists to earn their votes.
Ron DeSantis has proven that you don't have to surrender anything you believe in to govern the right way.
If Republicans can follow his history, they can keep winning for the GOP as long as they wish.
