Florida’s @GovRonDeSantis: “If you have a political party that puts the interests of teachers unions over the interests of kids just being able to access an education at all, that tells you all you need to know about the modern Democratic Party.” pic.twitter.com/hcSO1DJI86

One of the greatest fears of red states such as Florida and Texas is that their attractiveness is going to bring migrants from other states that want their low cost of living, low taxes, larger properties, and job availability, but then don’t learn their lesson about why their state was so messed up like it was. Their voting habits made for bad policies which made for a bad situation in their blue state, which lead to them fleeing said blue state for the greener pastures of the red state.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis seems to be noticing an interesting pattern that puts a lot of fears to rest. According to him, people aren’t just leaving their state, they’re also leaving their status as a Democrat on the ground as they go. By the time they get to Florida, they’re full-fledged Republican voters.
Speaking at a town hall on Fox New’s Hannity, host Sean Hannity brought up the issue of blue migrants turning red states a shade of purple, but DeSantis relieved his constituents by noticing the pattern he’s seeing for new arrivals.
“So, all of you have this problem,” Hannity said. “And the problem is people from New York, and New Jersey, and California, and Michigan, they’re leaving their states and they’re going to your states. You’re — Florida seeing a huge impact of migration out of the — out of these blue states. Now, my only fear for all of you — and I’ll let you start first, Governor DeSantis — is that they may bring their liberal policies with them.” Read the rest at redstate.com.
As long as those new residents do not bring their lefty voting habits here. Maybe they need to take a sanity test before being allowed to relocate to our state.
