It's also why the GOP has leaned all the way in on the term "socialism", they're specifically targeting these voters.

I mean it's not even a controversial point anymore. But a lot of people have this weird reflexive ideology where it's almost like they are PERSONALLY offended if you happen to suggest something that could be interpreted as a net negative for a political party. It doesn't even matter if it's true or not

Biden won 59% of the male Hispanic vote in 2020...
I don't think Florida election results have anything to do with the rest of the country, given the Cuban demographics there are unique. That being said, DeSantis' support amongst Hispanics has tanked there due to his immigration bill and I'd expect that to be a major issue nationally if he wins the nomination.

It's not just Cubans. It's Venezuelans and El Salvadorians, too. A lot of Central American and South American immigrants are from countries with awful leaders who identified as socialist (think Hugo Chavez, etc.), which explains part of it. An invitation into whiteness is the other part, broadly.

He could, but the odds of him doing that and being successful are slim to none. His policies are only in place due to Florida having a Republican Supermajority in their state house and senate, and those policies are trash that would not sway moderate/independent voters. State Pension plans have been losing money and his answer is to try suing AB InBev due to their wokeness (the ironic thing is that party is the one responsible for boycotts and lowering their sales/stock price).
There's also the fact inflation is higher than the national average in Florida and home insurance crisis that is only going to get worse. So far DeSanstis' answer to the insurance crisis, like his answers to everything else that makes Florida looks ridiculous, is to call them woke. If a hurricane hits that causes significant damage, that's going to end his campaign.
Again. The Trans issues have made democrats make awful concessions and furthered claims that democrats don’t care about normie men and women etc.

EXACTLY.
But it's too easy to be lazy and just repeat the old canard of assuming everything in Florida politics boiling down to Cubans.

You could provide links with evidence of your claims. Why do you think I'm supposed to take your word?
@Piff Perkins provided numbers to back up his claims. Why don't you do the same with your claims. Is that too much to ask?

There are numbers all up and down this thread that back up these claims. I'm not sure why you're being hostile about this. It's okay to admit that you were mistaken on the internet, breh. We're not going to hate on you for that.
Seems like Mitch McConnell is on his way out of here.
