Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis asked whether former President Trump was running to get back at his poltical enemies or ensure a brighter future for Americans.

I didn’t vote for Trump in 2016. I didn’t vote.

In 2020 I voted for Trump because knew Biden would be bad. He has done better than I expected but the inflation is killing me and the focus on the wrong thing isn’t helping.

Early on I was a De Santis fan but my interest has waned as he has taken hard stances on things that need compromise.

    I’ve read USC 42 § 243 multiple times, I honestly don’t see which part of USC 42 § 243 grants HHS authority to direct/control the states response.

    It gives them the power to advise and give states help if asked.

    Otherwise, we wouldn’t have had 50 different plans for COVID. The federal government would have enforced one plan but as I cited previously, even Biden admits that isn’t a power the federal government has.

        That section is mainly about borders where the federal government has jurisdiction. It’s explained in the link I sent him.

        I think he believes if he repeats it enough, says he’s an expert, we will all say oh ok.

        I am not an expert but I’ve been briefed as part of my duties.

        It’s possible he’s confusing advise with authority.
