S hortly before Ron DeSantis launched his bid for the Republican nomination, the governor of Florida signed three bills to “crack down on Communist China”, as he put it. The laws stop Chinese firms buying agricultural land, block certain apps owned by Chinese companies being used in state institutions, and curb ties between Florida’s higher-education institutions and those in any “country of concern”. China-bashing has been a staple of presidential campaigns for a decade. Now state legislatures have discovered a taste for it.
佛罗里达州州长在罗恩·德桑蒂斯（Ron DeSantis）提出共和党提名的竞标之前，他曾在罗恩·德桑蒂斯（Ron DeSantis）提出竞标之前签署了三项法案，以“打击共产主义中国”，正如他所说。法律阻止中国公司购买农业用地，阻止中国公司在州机构中使用的某些应用程序，并遏制佛罗里达州高等教育机构与任何“关注国家”中的佛罗里达州高等教育机构之间的联系。十年来，中国的抨击一直是总统竞选的主食。现在，州立法机关已经发现了它的品味。
