I’m scratching my head to imagine any comparison in US history to this fundraiser. As far as I’m aware, nobody ever tried to raise money for Ds or Rs by opposing seatbelt laws, or promoting second-hand smoke, or denouncing safe-sex behaviors during deadliest days of AIDS.

What’s the end game here? Is DeSantis imagining that he might get political credit from the boast: “Thanks to my leadership, Florida has the lowest rates of vaccinated cops, teachers, firefighters, and other public employees of any state in the nation” ?
