To the editor: Columnist Michael Hiltzik notes that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has “all the charisma of a linoleum floor.” (“Disney lawsuit shows Ron DeSantis at his bullying, bumbling worst,” column, April 26)
As an architect, I take issue with this gratuitous jibe against this useful, versatile and colorful product that has comported itself with dignity now for more than a century and a half.
Hiltzik owes linoleum a heartfelt apology.

To the editor: At one time, I thought the governor of Florida was the answer to those who were ready to move on from the former president. He was a smarter bully, or so I thought.
Someone should have told DeSantis it’s not a good idea to throw down with the mouse. The mouse has a battalion of legal lions at his disposal, and they don’t lose many battles.
