I have ZERO doubt that the Ron DeSantis' of the world would try to lock up LGBTQ people. It's honestly hard for me to imagine anyone not thinking that people like him would try to do it.

I’ll reluctantly back you up on this one. There are definitely people in power right now that would definitely lock up LGBTQ/Black/Women (honestly white males too) under false pretenses. Still, we have to do something about the homeless problem. These handful of people ruin millions of peoples lives.

Did Trump do it? Is Ron worse than Trump?

  On LGBTQ issues, yes. Ron is unquestionably worse than Trump. It's part of his current campaign strategy to call out that Trump is "weak" on LGBTQ "issues." Trump and DeSantis are individuals and their political views can't be reduced to a single scale running from "good" to "bad". They have different approaches to politics and they have different areas that they care about and they approach their political goals using different strategies. They're both bad candidates, but they're bad in sometimes different ways. And there are many, many issues where DeSantis is better than Trump (although that's not saying much, and it's not saying that DeSantis is good on those issues). LGBTQ+ discrimination in specific though is an area where DeSantis is worse.

  This is just the personal impression that I get, but I think that most progressives feel that Ron is worse than Trump. The one exception is that Ron seems to be worse at politics than Trump so I could see some people viewing him as less of a threat.
