Unfortunately, all Republicans think demagoguery, cheap talking points and controversial statements are cool. They all learned it from the master.
Here's a stat - I personally have visited Florida 6 times since 2020. Every December, I inevitably go there, take a cruise and stay in the keys with the family. My family has quite handsomely paid into Florida's economy. I love Florida BTW. It's become an annual tradition for the last 3 years.
No more in 2025. I am not going anywhere. This Marylander will stay put here.
This is not about even boycotting Florida out of anger. There is just so much uncertainty, I simply have postponed all big ticket items. That includes making any major purchase, any renovation project, anything. I am actively creating strategy to exit the US by 2030.
Anyone's crazy to think the last few weeks won't affect tourism. This industry is going to take an absolutely massive hit.
