Florida, Freedom, and the Price of Growth — A Conversation with Daniel Hassan

I sat down with Daniel Hassan, a major Fishback donor and Renner donor, despite being on opposite sides of the governor’s race.

What followed was not a shouting match.

It was a real conversation about old Florida, overdevelopment, corporate power, AI, H-1Bs, DeSantis, Byron Donalds, James Fishback, Paul Renner, and Jay Collins.

Most interesting part?

Daniel called Jay Collins “an American hero” and said he thinks Jay “would make a good governor”

His criticism wasn’t ideological.

It was whether Jay can connect with a wider audience.

That’s a serious conversation worth having.
