Only 9 women showed up including Erika. It kind of reminds me of Byron’s little home meeting where they were influence peddling.
DON’T BYRON OUR FLORIDA !
If you want to win voters, you have to be in front of them. Fishback has beaten up the campaign trail with a work ethic you have to admire. This is what it takes.
You don’t hear about it but the admin 3x’d the cost for a foreigner to enter our national parks. Used to be the same for foreigners and Americans, it’s now $35 for US residents and $100 for non-residents
Ron DeSantis won by less than half a percent (.4%) in 2018. Then he kicked something like ~800,000 fake voters off the rolls, and in 2022 he won by 19.4% and more than 1.5 million votes. That's what 100 million mass deportations will do for America.
At one point during the 2024 election cycle, Trump was promoting a massive "Great American Fair" for the 250th anniversary. He proposed the Iowa fairgrounds for it and promised each state their own pavilion
I was really excited about this idea. The 1893 World Fair (celebrating 400th anniversary of Columbus discovering America) was a massive event, years in the making. It's covered by history books.
I knew that 2 years was not really enough time to make something that tremendous happen, but I had hoped that Trump might push forward that vision and that some passionate people might bring it to fruition. I hoped to travel to it this summer with my kids.
What a wonder it would have been, to see each state proudly represent itself to have a grand event that brought us all together for a singular moment.
It's awful that such a grand idea has eroded into this sad display.
