Witness the fundraising letter from Ron DeSantis, who is nationalizing his campaign for re-election for Florida’s governor. Creating “Faucism” as a near-homonym for Fascism. Or his statements about the US economy:
Joe Biden has spent the better part of his entire presidency fighting to put the American worker out of a job instead of fighting the pandemic like he promised. He thinks the cure to his nosediving economy is to push Americans to the unemployment line and stifle economic participation with mask and vaccine mandates.
Nevermind that under Biden, the US has created nearly six million jobs since his inauguration–the most of any first-year president, and more than the last three GOP presidents combined. Or that unemployment is at 4.2%. Or that the US economy will grow by around 6% this year. That’s all a disaster according to DeSantis.
