If it actually were a legit poll, the crosstabs would have been made public when the poll was released. Oh, and about those crosstabs for your phony push poll, Grok says: Creating internally consistent phony crosstabs for a phony poll is not difficult. It’s mostly just disciplined spreadsheet work or simple data generation. The hard part of a successful fake poll isn’t making the numbers add up — it’s making the overall story, timing, and sourcing believable enough that people don’t immediately treat it as obvious propaganda. So yes — if someone is willing to fabricate the top lines, fabricating matching crosstabs is well within reach.

I am deeply honored to earn the endorsement of the Florida Police Benevolent Association. There is no greater responsibility than protecting Florida families, and there is no greater honor than earning the trust of the men and women who put on the badge every day to do exactly that. As Governor, I will always stand shoulder to shoulder with law enforcement, ensure they have the resources they need to do their jobs safely, and continue making Florida the most pro-law enforcement state in America.

Incredibly lazy by the Wall Street Journal. 1) A tax break somewhere does not mean a tax increase elsewhere. That's a progressive argument to prevent any form of tax relief. Florida runs surpluses and county revenues have nearly doubled over the last 8 years. Local governments can afford to cut spending. 2) Comparing DeSantis to Mamdani is embarrassing. The Governor is not advocating for INCREASED taxes on wealthy Floridians. Mamdani, meanwhile, proposed a 9.5% property tax increase on everyday New Yorkers. The Governor simply saying that Palm Beach billionaires will still pay property tax on any home that is not a homestead. 3) The WSJ fails to consider one of the most important arguments of property tax relief: that it is antithetical to the spirit of homeownership. We should not have to keep paying perpetual rent to the government in order to keep our home!
