It’s a pointless exercise. For one thing, Newsom and DeSantis are ultimately reflections of their electorate. So either you have a fundamentally different California and Florida or you disrupt everything. As a leftist who doesn’t particularly care which parts of our country are most liberal, it doesn’t matter much to me.
I could walk into any state in the union and find these exact labor violations on farms. I hope the employers face dramatic, company-ending penalties for violating child labor laws. The product being made is irrelevant to me, and I don’t actually expect California to be particularly permissive of child labor violations once exposed.
Probably better? He certainly has the edge in productivity, and I think California in particular could learn a hell of a lot about how to turn intent into reality. But again, my objection is that Ron DeSantis could not effectively govern to the will of California’s citizens, so I find it moot. If Californians are reasonably happy with their way of life, I see no more reason to disrupt it than I do to try and get a progressive elected to lead Mississippi.
