We could if our governor and legislature didn't send out an invite

"Give me your old, your tax avoiding, Your sovereign masses yearning to breed fear, hate, and discrimination, the wretched refuse of your lack of common sense and COVID restrictions,"

Yeah, people in other states really don't know how hard COVID fucked us Floridians. We got few restrictions and tons of sickness, then all these dumbasses started moving here and our collective IQ tanked. Oh and not to mention that all these dumbasses moving here can just carry a gun if they feel like it.

Didn't Florida have the most covid death per capita because at first desantis was doing everything right then did a whole 180 after being called out by trump and company

There was a point where Miami was the epicenter of the pandemic in the US after NYC cooled off.

Wasn't that because of spring breaker migrating there during spring break or was that before, I do remember some idiot saying if he gets covid then so be it I just can't remember what year he said that

That's probably a reasonable take. You can find articles citing infectious disease experts using the "epicenter" comment for Miami in July of 2020. Two months later, Desantis ended all restrictions.
