   LGBTQ Cult members and TRans illegals are OK in shelters according to   
   DeSantis, when he was on TV, he was also willing to send TRans illegals   
   to Martha's Vineyard... So they can read children's books about sex to   
   the kids in Martha's Vineyard.   
      
   But the wealthy Democrats like Obama that live there didn't want   
   illegals or TRans reading to their children....  ;)   
      
      
   Reality doesn't match-up to Democrats rhetoric, does it?

   inside America's Borders   
      
   Help make Martha's Vineyard an immigrant paradise and give the Wealthy   
   Democrats the Communism they want, all at the same time...  Two Birds
