his only "Contributions" have been divisive culture wars...he's tried to use them to damage major Florida businesses (e.g. Cruise Lines...Disney World)...on top of that he's gone against solid medical practice when dealing with a highly transmissible, and deadly, virus...moreover, he's hidden the effects of his harmful decisions by not counting hospitalizations and deaths among the multitude of "Snowbirds" there who aren't permanent residents.
btw, while we all should express thanks to anyone who serves in our military, RD should not embellish his term of service...he was a JAG officer, not a SEAL operative.
One more thing...Intelligence is not synonymous with Wisdom...Ron has the former, but not the more important latter quality.
