Related: About this forumFlorida Governor May Copy Texas' Abortion Ban To Save His Failing Career - Ring of Fire
Florida's Republican governor Ron DeSantis is reportedly considering enacting a "fetal heart beat bill" similar to the one in Texas. This move is about one thing and one thing only: Saving DeSantis' failing career. His approval rating is taking a massive hit thanks to his pro-COVID policies, and he needs to shore up his base or else he's in deep trouble in next year's midterm elections. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains why this is happening, and why Florida will likely go along with this devastating plan.

to get breast enhancement surgery as well.

a lot of women with obvious enhancements, that it was a thing there.

This is what they will run on.
I killed more of my constituents than you did. I suppressed more women than you.

Campaign promises used to be about what a candidate could do to help people. These days, they are supporting strategies that result in voter suppression, illness and death - and they don't care.
