Quote of the Day
“Trump won Florida in 2016, 2020 and 2024, and over that time period saw the Sunshine State become a center of the MAGA universe. But a series of recent Democratic wins — from a high-profile flip this week in the state district home to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate to a recent upset in the Miami mayoral race — are forcing both parties to confront the reality that the political ground may not be as settled as it seemed.”
Florida wins after Trump takeover leave Democrats feeling brighter about Sunshine State.
