The mandatory legislation was "Seniors First" because there was a shortage. The shot itself was NOT mandatory.

He got the J&J...I did the same.

DeSantis was all about choice.

And he didn't shut everything down.

agree 100% this is all about dividing us and if they’re successful in destroying Trump’s run (God forbid), they will DESTROY DeSantis, their current useful tool. Now, I’m not saying DeSantis is a willing tool because...I don’t believe he is. But his silence does open the door to the cacophony in the media and conservative circles.

I am not vaxxed, but allowing the vaccines in your state and only encouraging vaccines to first go to elderly, who can most benefit, is not bad, at all.

He allowed choice and mandated nothing. It did not stop vaccine use in the state, but guess what? He has to represent everyone and Florida is an elderly hotbed. It is wrong to block use of such vaccines.

He was completely right with his approach. Whether he got it or not is irrelevant, because that, again, was a personal choice he allowed and took for himself.

I SEE NO ISSUE HERE.

Simply not true. He fought tooth and nail against anyone being forced to do it. From employers to event tickets to cruises. He took the cruise industry to court very early to ban shot requirements. He was the lead voice against it. He worked to make them widely available for anyone choosing to get them, with almost all effort focused on senior access.

My recollection is that he was positive about mono-clonal technology, and hopping mad that Biden limited it, at least for Florida.

Trump never supported covid vaccine mandates, always leaving it to individuals to decide what’s best for themselves.

Exactly my views on ANY vaccines, ANY medical procedures. Governments have neither the right or the knowledge to issue health related mandates.

Here in Florida, I can tell you the biggest thing our Governor supported was monoclonal treatment so Biden severely limited our supply. Then, DeSantis went to another manufacturer and made a deal with them for our monoclonals. After that, Biden revoked authorization of monoclonals .

False, as written. Therefore, False. A lie.

But those conservatives had to keep needling him to pay attention.

Ha! I saw what you did there.

But it is still another good reason to keep DeSantis in Florida, where he has been a good governor, and let Trump have another turn at the wheel. I certainly want DeSantis in Tallahassee until 2026.

Seniors first! DeSantis saved lives. Trump said the virus would be gone in two weeks. Oops!

“Trump never supported covid vaccine mandates, always leaving it to individuals to decide what’s best for themselves. “

The first part of that statement is an outright lie. Trump may not have wanted to force the vaccines, but he she as heck pushed them.

Freedom to choose is the only correct position.
If you want the vaccine, go for it.

If you don’t, don’t go for it.

The gov should not tip the scales either direction.

DeSantis never mandated anyone take the vaccine. He mandated the most venerable be given the first option. I think you were trying to be a bit misleading here.

Sounds like DeSantis was right all along. He’s done a great job in Florida and probably better than any governor in the nation.

Trump supports vaccines and pushed through the approval

The only thing I care about is DeSantis praising the 1/6 committee and saying the protesters get what they deserve
