    His MO is to pass illegal/unconstitutional bills and use it to fundraise while the state has to pay to defend (and lose) their case defending it.

      How is a governor signing a blatantly unconstitutional law or refusing to comply with a federal law not a crime? The latter at least should end up with the FBI arresting desantis.

              States are sued all the time. They usually win but lose a lot too. The court that decides in the plaintiff’s favor issues the judgement and it’s enforced like any other judgment.

              The federal government can just start locking up the people that get in their way, judgement or no. How do you think schools in the South were desegregated? The national guard was taken over by the president and the national guard made it happen.

              This isn’t going to happen though, because Meatball Ron is a coward.
