Paypal co-founder and Republican megadonor Peter Thiel is worried Florida is quickly becoming California, a state that "can't even keep the power on," according to Gov. Ron DeSantis. While speaking at the the National Conservatism conference last week, Thiel pointed to high real estate prices as an indicator Florida is in real danger of "becoming like California.""The temptation on our side is always going be to just say we’re not California… We don’t like tech, we don’t like California, we don’t like the woke stuff," said Thiel at the first night of the conference.
