Don't think they'd be too happy with that solution.

I live in a solidly blue part of Florida and there is not one person I know who wants Florida dumped just because The Villages and much of Southwest Florida keep sending these asshole RepuQs to Tallahassee.

FUCK every single FUCKED UP person here who keeps saying to cut Florida off.

No please, the three southeastern counties in Florida, including where Donnie lives, are very blue.

Our worst problem here are the assholes sent up here by the RepuQs elsewhere. People bitch and moan about what "Tallahassee" does. Well, Tallahassee is very blue so it isn't the city or the county's fault.

Orange County, where Orlando is, has gotten bluer. Hillsborough County is pretty blue, too. Not all of Floridians are RepuQ assholes, just mostly the ones that make the news.

Instead of cheerfully offering me and my home state of Texas to Putin, why don't you, just for starters, do something about that ignorant, dangerous, fuckhead senator of yours, Ron Johnson? Too much for you?
