Theres no reset for the damage Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has done to his home state, a Miami columnist wrote Thursday.
----------------------
DeSantis has hit the reset button, shifting his focus to economic issues.
Hes still rallying against what he describes as 'woke,' but hes poised to show his populist and sympathetic side.
But the switch will change nothing for the people living in Florida, he wrote.
Even if DeSantis magically transforms into Ronald Reagan, the damage hes done has been enshrined into every facet of Florida law and policy, Hoffman wrote.
As examples, Hoffman described the crackdown on mentioning LGBTQ issues or race in the states classrooms, the use of indoctrination teaching materials created by the conservative PragerU that teaches slavery was no big deal, and the effort to halt prescribed medical care for transgender kids.
The Legislature in the past two years has been hard at work to make sure DeSantis had enough culture-war victories to brag about, Hoffman wrote.

We're still hurting from what Reagan did to California. And he made it hard to undo.
Smooth-talking or crass as ISIS, out with every damn lying, nihilistic one of them.
