DeSSantis in Florida is following a playbook

One that has been tried before. Sound familiar? From the Holocaust Encyclopedia:

"Under Joseph Goebbels’ leadership, both the Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda and the Reich Chamber of Culture helped to dictate what films, art, music, and literature were politically acceptable and who could work in these cultural fields. Jews and persons deemed to be politically unreliable were purged from cultural institutions and their works removed from galleries, cinemas, libraries, and theaters. Nazi propaganda events, such as the 'Degenerate Art' and Great German Art exhibitions, served to delineate for the public what was acceptable and unacceptable in the Third Reich."
