Without any pesky mask or vaccination mandates?
Well. Look here:

(9,998 posts)I'm pretty much done with the state already, which is sad because I would like to visit the parks in Orlando again someday.
The fact he's the strongest contender to be the '24 nominee, if the Other ASSHOLE doesn't run, makes me sick of America and half it's population. It just shows me that the system is rigged and people are ignorant pieces of excrement.

(6,979 posts)I hear what you're saying, but that state is SO damned rigged and gerrymandered ....
That I expect Florida to remain dead to Dems for a LONG, LONG time, unless a Dem wins the governorship and Dems win both state houses, but how can that happen when that state--since that Dem who designed the butterfly ballot where people didn't know that they voted for Pat Buchanan for president, to those who voted for Nader Horse head Harris, Jeb & the Supremes who GAVE gave the presidency to Dubya back in 2000.
I live in California, but things were much different when we wrestled Ca. away from the then GOP. MOST in that party belong to the GQP aka The US GQP Taliban Party, and GQP'ers like DeathSentence are guilty of murder, treason, racism, cheating to win elections--hell, of stealing elections in our faces, and laughing about it.

(3,736 posts)Note the periodicity of the peaks
The graph is not easy to see here, however as I read it:
1st peak is July-Aug
2nd peak is Jan-Feb
3rd peak is Aug-Sep
This new (4th) peak will be Jan or worse
Covid waves are not yet annualized.
We are seeing (on this chart) rising waves twice a year with new peaks higher than past peaks.
Prognostications are poor.

(17,644 posts)if he thought it would increase his chances of becoming the next Liar in Chief. The man is evil. I remember when Florida was a bastion of the Democratic Party, but the Fascists have taken over and will never relinquish power, no matter what it takes. It should be a lesson for the rest of the country.
