Florida’s Governor is talking hamburgers for a second straight night.
During an appearance on Fox News, Gov. Ron DeSantis told host Sean Hannity that In-N-Out would do very well in the Sunshine State if they ever wanted to fire up fast food franchises.
“If they decided to come to Florida, they would print money in the state of Florida, it would be so successful. But, you know, I think the company, you know, they like being where they are and I respect that. But they certainly would do very well in Florida.”
The company was founded in California and has since expanded to Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Texas and Oregon, so where they are has expanded over the years.
The Governor also talked about burgers to a group in Central Florida Tuesday, making the case that beef burgers are superior to veggie patties during remarks at the 96th Florida Future Farmers of America State Convention & Expo.
“One of the companies that does a lot of this stuff is headquartered in Florida. So I was down and I was interested in trying other things, but they had me try this burger that was not made of meat, it was not lab grown, it was like plant based, all this other stuff, which look, if that’s what you like, the thing about it is it’s actually less healthy than just eating the meat to begin with.”

What language is this elite-educated person speaking? Reading the words, it sounds like English is not their first language.

WHY has he not gotten speech coaching?
Especially given his occupation.

I’m sure Evita has worked with him, but he’s a jock.

I guess I never ate 100s of times at the In and Out in Gainesville in the 1970s! Yes the food was pretty good but the best part was the drive by Keg and Beer store on the back side of In and Out. Think it was on SW 6th avenue East of 13th St!

In-N-Out has never been in Florida. At least, not the particular restaurant DeSantis is speaking of here.

Gov. DeSantis tends to speak without forethought. In-N-Out is a privately owned company. The owner would never open franchises. If In-N-Out comes to Florida, it would remain private. I swear, for an allegedly well educated man, he says some of the dumbest things. And he wanted to rule the free world.
