While Ron DeSantis has been busy traveling across the country trying to sell his extreme agenda to voters and courting the most extreme fringes of the GOP base, his failed MAGA economic policies are proving disastrous at home.

Here’s a look at what’s been happening in DeSantis’ Florida since he launched his campaign:

Key Point: “Instead, Category 5 fraud and abuse have made Florida’s homeowners insurance market so unprofitable that 15 carriers have become insolvent in the state since 2020 — and others refuse to do business there. ‘This is a man-made catastrophe,’ says Logan McFaddin, vice president of state government relations at the American Property Casualty Insurance Association. ‘It’s not just the weather. It’s frivolous litigation and fraud.’… Critics say DeSantis should be doing more to help Florida homeowners now instead of campaigning out of state. That’s shaping up as a liability for DeSantis if his presidential campaign gathers steam and he becomes a serious contender for the Republican nomination.”

Six were forced to liquidate last year, another one earlier this year. And to try to stay solvent, the remaining insurers are charging rates nearly four times as high as the national average. Homeowners in the state pay private insurers about $6,000 a year, compared to a national average of $1,700.”
