Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said last week that he wants to lead a "great American comeback" while announcing his run for president of the United States of America on the Republican ticket. He called for tougher border controls, a crackdown on crime, and a war on "wokeness."
DeSantis might have strong appeal to conservative voters, but how should libertarians evaluate the two-term governor who made a name for himself first by flouting the federal government's COVID policy recommendations and later by picking fights with Disney World and declaring Florida the state where "woke goes to die"? Would a DeSantis presidency be any better for liberty than a Joe Biden or Donald Trump one?
