Despite propaganda claiming the contrary, DeSantis has not governed as a sincere conservative. To paraphrase "Dutchman," a prominent commentator on ''The Conservative Treehouse'', every action he has taken since 2018 was a political calculation designed to create two non-existent images, one of a "Free State of Florida" and the other of a "Trump lite". He is not nor has he ever been [[America First]]; his public image is totally artificial and disconnected from reality.[https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2023/06/22/everyone-is-going-to-think-im-nuts-but-im-not-nuts]
