It's not that much of a 'sweetheart' deal, any huge complex get them - MCO, for example. I believe there are close to 2k of these in the state, of varying sizes and scopes.
But that's not even the point - as I'm sure would have been painfully clear to you when your dad took away your Nintendo. Punishment is a question of motive. In some families you can take the keys to the Porsche away from the teenager and make him take his grandma's civic to the party, and that will be an effective punishment.

Motives that are in line with the will of the voters are not categorically bad, even if they lead to a politician adjusting discretionary relationships with a private company in an above-board way.
As a thought experiment, do you think an adjustment to government relations with a private company in CA which began openly advocating against abortion, or against gay marriage, would be wrong, in the same way you believe DeSantis was wrong?

Desantis won reelection by 19 points.
That's doing something right.

We don’t even need a hypothetical. Your former Governor wants to arrest doctors that spread “disinformation” on covid.
As i said in the first post, Newsome, like DeSantis, likes to use state power to stop speech he doesn’t like.

You mean, you're uncomfortable answering the apples to apples hypothetical, because it would lay bare your bias.
Since you're uncomfortable, I'll oblige. In my hypothetical, you would shrug, think that the company played a stupid game and won a stupid prize, and never think about it again.

I understand this feels like an apples to apples comparison to you, but the fact you're unwilling to respond to the direct comparison I presented, says it all.

Yeah, and Bobby Jindal won reelection by 34 point.
You remember what happened to Jindal afterwards?

Yep, and I know Bobby. Do you?
SOB lied outta his ass. Think DeSantis is doing the same?
