That said, some are in it to support us Citizens and unashamedly promote traditional American values. My strong suspicion is that DeSantis falls into this category.
We’ll see!
When your next meal & mortgage payment depends on pleasing voters over time you tend to slide toward the left. A professional politician is continuously surrounded by people whispering sweet things in their ears. Over time that becomes their reality. It’s human nature, its particularly hard for these professional politicians to see that because that’s all they know. The reality of what people in private commercial\professional life go through, how actual wealth\money is made is theoretical- textbook information to them. They usually don’t acknowledge it as such because they don’t even realize it. (Also a strictly legal education is intense but very narrow. I grew up around lawyers and saw this!)
