Alternative Title: "Meatball Ron is looking for another court to lose in."

I doubt this will ever go to court. Discovery would be too interesting because InBev has better lawyers & they will get access to the FLGOPs emails. May even be able to prove in court that the FLGOP tanked Florida's financial interests.

DeSantis gets spanked in courtrooms so often I'm starting to think that's his kink.

DeSantis got to use his office to virtue signal far and wide for free in order to promote himself. So what if his behaviors are illegal and his claims don't stand up to the most basic of scrutiny? Once it goes to court and he loses, his behaviors are just going to cost the people of Florida dearly and harm them for the foreseeable future. Since the base he's catering to has the attention of fruit flies only the headline will be remembered and not causality or consequences. No skin off Ron's back. Perhaps if he were legally personally liable for the damage he's causing he'd give a shit.
