I agree with part of what he said: “Israel is disgusting”
“The law in the state of Florida is that if you boycott Israel, we boycott you,” Fine stated. “It is the law of Florida, and it will be enforced. It will destroy the British economy because Florida is not the only place that passed that law.” ... When asked about critics who suggest that a trade war with the UK could harm Florida’s own economy, Fine remained undeterred, citing the sheer scale of the American state-level economies. ... “I think they’re wrong,” Fine said. “The economies of Florida and Texas combined are larger than the economy of the UK. We will be fine. That tiny little island will not.”
Buddy, your state and country is getting rocked by the Canadian Boycott. A country that is a fraction of the size of the US. The boycott is causing President Trumpty to have a hissy fit.
Randy Fine is truly delusional.
disneyland and disneyland paris are far superior anyway.
what else does florida even have?
Florida man does idiotic stuff.
This is his office:

The flag that is closest to him and also on the (equally) tallest flag stand is the Israeli one. So his priority is Israel, not the US and certainly not Florida.
Seems strange that there so many foreign agents working as US politicians.
I call the US just Cuck Nation now. Americans love their country getting cucked by Israel.
I thought it was illegal to show another flag higher than the US flag.
Might be worth prefixing that statement as this is not a universal rule - other countries wouldn't agree for example.
These bootlickers make me sick
Also, dude needs to iron his flags
florida, you have alot more to worry about than the sanctions/israel. think about the reduced of tourism to your state is causing.
I'm pretty convinced that Florida and DeSantis are holding off on implementing a state income tax for the election. Their coffers are taking a hit from tourism. The whole state is artificially cheaper to run because of it and they are losing billions. https://www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/florida-tourism-numbers-decline-again-auguat-2026/ doesn't spell it out as well as it could, but they've lost over a quarter million travlers and $50B
https://www.jec.senate.gov/public/_cache/files/34ac4070-d9e8-4160-a0ee-57cde9d65870/jec-report-on-tourism.pdf paints a pretty grim picture for the US Overall, but with Florida shedding 2.2% of jobs on the heels of the COVID tourism impact, the state is on thin ice tax-wise.
And here's this politician saying "we will be fine"...
which is why they arnt reporting any news about tourism taking a hit, PLUS ice making immigrants afraid of working as slaves in the state.
No, I think they would rather let their state fail than to properly generate revenue. That way the private sector can finally take over driving Florida into what could only be called fiefdoms. This is the magical utopia Republicans have been praying for, the failure of government and the rise of corporations above all else. I know this has pretty much happened already, but they won't be happy until there is no government or at least one they don't have absolute control of which means it would be much much smaller than they have now.
if the ocean doesnt take over the state first, or hurricanes.
This is the same dickhead that was caught on camera digging in somebody’s mailbox and I’m pretty sure they got him casting an illegal vote as well.
Instead of bombing Iran, could we just bomb Florida? I mean, do we really need Florida?
- we are outta bombs.
- theres nothing worth bombing in florida.
why bomb florida, when the ocean is going to reclaim the state, after a couple more HURRICANES. or if disney suffers enough lack of tourism. plus all those invasive species that FLORIDIANS love to import.
Yeah, don't worry about us, we are almost done already. We keep paving over every square inch of greenery and turning it into concrete hellscapes, then wondering why its floodin g every time we get a normal summer rain. Also our elected officials are just ignoring everyone and putting in data centers and flock cameras to line their own pockets. Oh, and one of our elected officials just called someone a "fucking idiot" on a hot mic a week ago, so we know what they think of us. North Port, Florida, if anyone is interested.
I knew it was going to be that fascist piece of shit before I even clicked on the link.
Kill this piece of shit
Politically, by voting him out of office.
Of course
Let's call that "plan A".
No need to be nitpicky
And then the way ICE treats nurses and mothers.
... in Minecraft?
Hey Florida, fuck you.
Of course it was the stupid fat one.
There are disgusting people involved. Most of them think not liking genocide is disgusting.
