This would be the same Florida that denied the climate disaster? Repube-icans don’t think its happening. Not to worry, I’m enjoying my schadenfreude. Suggestion to Disney: the visitors are dying of heat exhaustion is not a “good look” – why not move.?

  You raise some good points but this also shows the gulf between what happens at the local level and what happens at the state or national levels. There are many examples of that in the US in particular.
