Original Note:
The author's specific claim that Mrs DeSantis is aware of some connection between her outfit and racist imagery is not supported by any evidence. The alligator is a Florida icon and has been the State Reptile of Florida since 1987 - lobbied for, in part, by school children. https://archive.is/oWM8T#selection-1417.183-1417.239 https://dos.myflorida.com/florida-facts/florida-state-symbols/state-reptile/
