Many wonder if he’ll seek political vengeance against people he views as disloyal.
Ron DeSantis is out of the Republican presidential race. But in Florida, his second term as governor has only just gotten started.
As DeSantis returns to Tallahassee, the state capital is ablaze with speculation — and anxiety — about how the governor will wield power in the remaining almost-three years of his term. How will he seek to rebuild his stature in Florida after washing out at the national level? Will he lay the groundwork to run for president again?
And, most of all: Will he take political retribution against Republicans who he sees as having betrayed him in the presidential race?
Oh you mean it’s a mistake to give the collective power of an entire state to a vindictive fascist asshole who has historically used it as a cudgel against perceived opponents?
Ya don’t say.
