    I’m not sure how well this plays. It will be interesting to see.

      He had an actual shelter-in-place style curfew at one point, didn’t he? I don’t know if any other state went as far as he did.

        This was in another thread. As I said there, leaders can expect no credit for hindsight. It's foresight that counts.

          Didn’t see the other thread. Anybody have a link?

          My point isn’t about whether CA policies were too extreme or not, it’s about whether his admitting it helps or hurts him and others on a national stage. A sincere apology can be a powerful thing when it comes to public image. At the same time, this also provides powerful juice to DeSantis.

            Yep. DeSantis had foresight.
