After a month of updating Floridians on hurricanes, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis is now focusing his official office on fighting an abortion rights amendment, holding a campaign-like rally at state expense two weeks before the election.

DeSantis’ event Monday, which was capped with a prayer from the archbishop of Miami and the lieutenant governor asking people to not vote like atheists, came after the Department of Health’s top lawyer resigned over a letter he said the governor’s office forced him to send to television stations in an effort to stop a pro-Amendment 4 ad.

    Yeah that’s pretty much my view.

    My point though, is that most people conflate “doctor” with “smart person”, but that’s a false association.

    Doctors are just people who studied a lot longer, and that doesn’t make them smart, nor more credible in any meaningful way.
