Even as the left’s Covid policies are wreaking havoc at home and abroad, they’re continuing to savage America’s best governor.
Of all the hypocrisy leftists have dished out lately, the hardest to stomach is the hypocrisy of their stance on Covid. Leftists trumpet their concern for the economy, while their lockdowns lead to massive job loss. The leftists howled at President Trump’s comment about sh**hole countries, but their Covid policies are increasing poverty in Africa. Leftists claim to be against discrimination but want to segregate the unvaccinated, a move that lawyers are recommending against. The final straw is the opening of the border and letting in thousands of illegal aliens, many of whom are Covid positive while rebuking citizens for not cowering in their homes behind masks.
Florida governor Ron DeSantis is having none of it. This week he berated Joe Biden for opening the border and importing Covid from around the world. There were cheers and applause as Governor DeSantis announced at a press conference that he didn’t want to hear a blip about Covid until Biden did his job and secured the border.
Governor DeSantis makes an excellent point. He signed an executive order banning vaccination mandates and vaccination passports. He banned school mask mandates. He was one of the first governors to lift his state’s lockdown. Governor DeSantis’ unregulated approach has resulted in Florida enjoying a flourishing economy and lower Covid numbers than California or New York, two states with some of the strictest Covid regulations in the country. One would think that Ron DeSantis would be regarded as a hero for doing so well with his state during the pandemic, but one would be wrong.

No good deed will go unpunished.
The only thing the left ever wants is power and Desantis was not helping.
The left believes they are superior to the right, and therefore, the left should rule and the right should obey.
He’s a hero to us Floridians who cherish freedom.
Right now Commiecrats have the FBI working 24/7 to find dirt on DeSantis, something, anything, or just make something up.
Ron DeSantis has them worried. Seen as the most likely person to pick up the reins, should Donald Trump not choose to pursue a second term as President (and there is little certainty of that just yet), Governor DeSantis has been honing his skills as a leader and successful negotiator out in full view of the public. As Governor of one of the more successful states in the United States, he is clearly shaping his future for a higher calling.
And no, he will not be Vice President under a second term of Donald Trump. Cannot be, as that would violate the provisions of Amendment XII, where it reads “The Electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves.” This is a modification of the language of Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution.
But Secretary of State or Attorney General is a good post.
That's the scary part. The entire deep state apparatus is out for blood. Prayers for Trump and DeSantis.
don't bet on it
You ain’t seen nothing yet.
In two weeks, Anthony Fauci who now rules the corporate board rooms and our economy, will force all corporations to mandate the vaccine or fire employees. I just hope he and Andy Cuomo share a jail cell.
BTTT.
The apparatchiks in Washington, from the highest toady to the lowest, are scared to death of DeSantis. You can smell their fear, and it is sweet to smell.
Hypocrisy is a commodity in DC, openly traded on K Street.......................
I thought Leftist hypocrisy reached its peak at Obama’s maskless birthday party,
You're right. Now to find out if their hatred and fear of DeSantis caused them to settle more of the almost million illegals in Florida - from countries with the highest COVID rates in the world.
Hi.
It sure is getting crowed in liberals, progressive, democrats’ heads.
How?
First Trump 24/7/365, and now governor DeSantis 24/7/365.
Fun to watch.

No, if he is not the next president then we want to keep him in Florida.
