The Atlantic magazine has an excellent article about Ron DeSantis.

It's in their May 2023 issue and covers a little of this and that in a crisp, anecdotal, matter-of-fact outline about a horrible person on the loose in America.

Things have been going downhill since that B movie actor made it to the White House.

We keep making one step forward and two steps back. We have abandoned truth and logic as being inconsequential when compared to ignorance and hate. Florida now has an effective dictator running the state and running for the White House. What is terrifying is that he gained and maintains power with the support of the voters. He leads with fear, backed by the state courts and legislature. DeSatan and disappear into the political fog and night. For Dog's sake, this state's education system is calling Michelangelo a pornographer. Where do you go from there?

Do not think that this is just Florida, the nation elected a Trump, we are fully capable of electing a DeSantis...
