If I'm Ron DeSantis, this quote becomes a solid part of my campaign advertising for at least the next month. Hell, I might not even put anything more on it than Gillum's face, the quote and a web address to the quote.

this would actually be the best campaign strategy although the trump clone vs. black man will be really interesting to watch play out.

Gillum has a lot of enthusiasm right now but I think he isn't a particularly good candidate, although neither is desantis.

To be fair saying he will raise them by 40% sounds worse than in actuality.

That would be going from 5.5% to 7.7%

Yeah because that's why they leave. You can't really be that naive, can you?

Would you be ok with your cable bill going up 100%? Its only a tiny fraction of your overall income after all.

40% increase is a 40% increase. It's called math.

Maybe we'll finally get Disney World in Livingston Parish when he wins.

So if your corporate tax rate for the state comes to $10,000 under current rates, what will it be under the new rates?

I’ll help you out. It would be around $13,950.

Does that sound like 40%? Because it’s like 40%.

How some of you function every day is beyond me.

While you’re at it, impose a 12 percent state income tax like California.

Why go monkey when you can go full Sasquatch?

This guy is going to make sure he loses. One of the biggest employee owned companies in the US is based out of Florida. This should go over good with the thousands of employees at Publix who will loose thousands of dollars.
