Governor Ron DeSantis and The Free State of Florida

I don't care if you're conservative or liberal, that is a good thing, right? If you take all the debt that Florida's accumulated, its 181 year history, just since I've been governor, We've retired more than half of [Florida's debt] again, Republican, Democrat, that's a good thing. So those things about good governance, having the state be solid, that is important and I think it actually sets the stage to be able to do some of the philosophically conservative things.
