1. I see a lot of republicans laughing about Biden thinking Florida is in play

But other than the abortion issue, which has won in states just as conservative as Florida, possibly having an effect on getting out the vote for Joe, democrats are way ahead of republicans in fund-raising, and that's probably not going to change especially with Trump using RNC funds for his court cases. They can afford to try for Florida, but republicans can't afford (metaphorically and fiscally) not to defend it, and they may spread themselves thin on states that are more firmly in the "swing" category. Plus, it's a huge psychological hit if they do have to defend what should be safe ground.
