He has left a wake of destruction all across Florida.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Which raises some interesting questions:<\/p>\n<p>How did <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/ron-desantis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DeSantis win a landslide<\/a> re-election victory last fall if his tenure has been such a disaster?<\/p>\n<p>Why is it that hundreds of thousands of people have moved to Florida in the last couple of years?<\/p>\n<p>And, as Strassel noted, if Florida is such an unmitigated disaster, why is Donald Trump living there?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/florida-lawmakers-clear-path-desantis-run-president-resigning-governor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>FLORIDA LAWMAKERS TO CLEAR PATH FOR DESANTIS TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT WITHOUT RESIGNING AS GOVERNOR<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now such tactics are hardly unprecedented when governors run for national office. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/the-clintons\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">During Bill Clinton\u2019s 1992 campaign,<\/a> the Republicans depicted Arkansas as a bleak, dystopian landscape, with one ad ending with a buzzard on a barren tree. In 1988, Mike Dukakis had to answer for Boston Harbor pollution.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis hasn\u2019t responded directly, as usual, but the head of his Super PAC, Never Back Down, offered to pay for Trump to move to California &#8220;so he can be close to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/person\/gavin-newsom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">his good buddy Gavin Newsom,<\/a> whom he loves so intensely and gets along with so well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s most fascinating is how the Mar-a-Lago man\u2019s measuring sticks are drawing criticism.<\/p>\n<p>Such as: &#8220;ESPN wrote that Florida is the Worst State in The Nation To Die.&#8221; Isn\u2019t ESPN\u2019s specialty supposed to be sports? <\/p>\n<p>Some of Trump\u2019s findings are drawn from a Miami-based site called WalletHub. Which is odd, because my check of WalletHub shows Florida finishing No. 2, right behind Virginia, as the best state to retire in. Also, No. 4 for quality of life. Also, No. 9 for affordability.<\/p>\n<p>The outfit looked at &#8220;47 key indicators of retirement-friendliness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/us-regions\/southeast\/florida\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Florida also placed<\/a> No. 7 for best state to live, period.<\/p>\n<p>WalletHub seems to have some left-leaning tendencies. As the Journal piece points out, &#8220;Florida is 26th on its list of best states for working moms. That assessment is based on an analysis of \u201817 relevant metrics\u2019 that were given different weights, everything from the \u2018Gender-Representation Gap in Different Economic Sectors\u2019 to \u2018Pediatricians per Capita.\u2019&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>All this is a tightening of Trump\u2019s previous dismissal of DeSantis as an average governor, saying the Sunshine State was thriving well before he took office.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/radio.foxnews.com\/podcast\/the-media-buzzmeter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>SUBSCRIBE TO HOWIE&#8217;S MEDIA BUZZMETER PODCAST, A RIFF ON THE DAY&#8217;S HOTTEST STORIES<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that Trump endorsed DeSantis in 2018, and never lets us forget that he deems it an act of disloyalty for the governor to even consider running against him.
