"Jaime Jara, a high-school teacher of American history and mother of three children, one of whom is a ten-year-old transgender girl, agrees. 'I thought Trump was bad,' she says. 'But for me, DeSantis is even worse, because he's smarter and more calculating. So it's terrifying.'

"When people ask if they plan to move, Jara insists: 'Let's call it what it is. It's not moving, it's fleeing. We're being persecuted.'

"And if DeSantis becomes president? In that case, Jara says her family will find a way to leave not just Florida, but the United States itself."
