Start with support by deep state lefties for DeSantis
Dr. LADAPO. is the best authority..also DeSantis made the only know safe cure available in Florida...before the Biden regime confiscated it all...I think Oklahoma sufferer the same fate.
The link in Post #47 is all the evidence anyone should need to disqualify this guy from holding public office.
Some of us were very sensitive to this kind of crap at the time because we run our own businesses and were facing financial ruin if we were locked down indefinitely.
One of the lessons I've learned over the years is that it's absolutely critical to see how a leader (in government or business) reacts in a crisis.
People in leadership positions show their primary instincts in these situations.
And I have nothing but contempt for anyone who acts like a dictator and throws all principles of freedom and liberty out the window at a critical time. This goes for DeSantis in Florida and that other nitwit in Pennsylvania (Mastriano) who was publicly calling in March 2020 for the suspension of HIPAA privacy laws and registering people with positive COVID test results in a public database.
There's a reason why the first instinct of @ssholes like this is for a totalitarian government solution to a crisis: It's because they've worked in government all their lives (and in the case of both Mastriano and DeSantis, spent long stretches of their government careers in the U.S. military) and they simply have no respect for the fundamental principle that freedom and liberty exists outside of government and is not subject to negotiation.
This episode captures the essence of Ron DeSantis in a nutshell. He had no problem shutting down businesses because he has never worked outside government in his life, and wasn't going to miss a single paycheck no matter how many lives he disrupted among Florida's business owners.
And it's no coincidence that a dope with a military pedigree would use National Guard troops to enforce an illegal travel ban.
Because what DeSantis implemented in Florida was VERY minor compared to the level of lockdowns Trump wanted FOR EVERY AMERICAN. Comparatively speaking, it was nothing.
- Trump wanted no Americans to meet in any groups larger than 15, anywhere.
- Trump wanted no Americans to make ANY discretionary travel, to or from anywhere.
- Trump wanted every Bar, Restaurant, and Food Court ANYWHERE to be shut down.
Yet you refuse to ever dare put Trump down for those ridiculous lockdown guidelines, he put forth for the entire nation, and instead want to rail against DeSantis for only barely doing what Trump asked in Florida. I have no idea who you think you're fooling with jive, but it certainly isn't me.
Your position would only be sound, if you admitted that what Trump wanted done to the entire nation, was exponentially worse than what DeSantis actually did in his one state. But you won't, because admitting that is admitting that DeSantis's judgement was just clearly and simply a lot better than Trump's on the matter.
Trump elevated Fauci and pressured Brian Kemp to keep the state closed down. Even when Kemp tried to reopen Georgia, he publicly attacked him. Sit down.
Trump is pro vax and anti mandate. Most sane people are...
