On this blog, I’ve covered many DeSantis wins: tax cuts, budget surpluses, 20-point re-election win, school choice, import cheap Canadian drugs, 6-week abortion ban, no boys in girls’ bathrooms or girls’ sports, fire far-left Soros-backed district attorneys, crack down on BLM and Antifa violence, beat the Trump-Fauci lockdowns,beat the teacher unions, beat the woke corporations, etc.

This time, DeSantis decided to take on the woke universities in Florida. And he won. Again.

Leftist Florida’s Voice has the story:

The Florida State Board of Education created a new rule Wednesday to bar member schools of the Florida College System from spending taxpayer dollars on “diversity, equity and inclusion” programs.

The rule also applies to federal funds, in addition to state funds, given to public colleges.

It defines “diversity, equity and inclusion,” or “DEI,” as “any program, campus activity, or policy that classifies individuals on the basis of race, color, sex, national origin, gender identity, or sexual orientation and promotes differential or preferential treatment of individuals on the basis of such classification.”

Specifically, such colleges cannot use taxpayer funds to “promote, support, or maintain any programs or campus activities” advocating for DEI or “political or social activism.”

“Higher education must return to its essential foundations of academic integrity and the pursuit of knowledge instead of being corrupted by destructive ideologies,” said Florida Commissioner of Education Manny Diaz, Jr. “These actions today ensure that we will not spend taxpayers’ money supporting DEI and radical indoctrination that promotes division in our society.”

[…]Florida’s new rule comes after Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a law in May 2023 eliminating DEI in higher education.

Now, Trump supporters have an answer to all of DeSantis past demonstrated achievements: future achievements. They say “Trump will do even better things when he gets the chance!” In Christian apologetics, we call this approach to debate “making a phantom argument”. Debater A makes an argument that is logical and based on public, testable evidence. Debater B says “I have a book at home that can refute your argument and evidence”. That’s what the Trump supporters are doing – I have a future achievement that beats your past achievement. Trump had 4 years to do all the things that DeSantis has already done, and he failed to do them. He isn’t someone who can get things done. If we want the swamp drained and the Deep State purged, we should pick the man who will actually do what he says. Not the one who talks, but doesn’t do.

If you missed the most recent CNN town hall, DeSantis leveled up again, winning accolades from the CNN panel for his improved skills at answering voter’s questions.

Here’s a clip:

He’s just a better candidate than some washed-up old wrinkly has-been like Biden or Trump. Those old men need to retire. They are past their primes, and they need to step aside.

The president is an employee of the people. We don’t owe a past employee who failed another chance. We have to upgrade to a better employee. DeSantis is a better employee.
