Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis seems to drive a lot of liberals and other NeverTrumpers out of their minds, for reasons that continue to bewilder even a cuck RINO traitor like Yours Truly. (As my haters like to point out, I probably voted for Biden and Hillary and Obama. I’m just that soyfaced, baby!) For almost a year now, our moral, ethical, and intellectual betters have cheered Andrew Cuomo as some sort of COVID superhero, even as the corpses in the Empire State pile up higher than that building. The stench in New York is proving too strong for even the most stalwart reality-denying journalist, so Cuomo is finally getting his turn under the bus. The truth about him is finally coming to light. But these lamebrains still have this fantasy that DeSantis is killing everybody in Florida, even as his state continues to recover and even thrive. Libs are finally being forced to admit that Cuomo is less Superman than Lex Luthor, but they still need a Republican villain, no matter how many lives DeSantis saves.
If you want to see this cognitive dissonance at work, look no further than the Master of Horror himself. Here’s Florida resident Stephen King, opining on current events via the modern miracle of Twitter:

It seems possible—likely, even—that Ron DeSantis provided rich, Republican-leaning communities like Lakewood Ranch with priority vaccinations for political gain.

I waited for a vaccination appointment, and patience was rewarded. Drive-thru in Pasco County. Moderna. No adverse effects. I think it was the National Guard running the show. Very cool. Get it done, folks. Let's kill this thing.

The elderly are the most vulnerable to COVID. Florida is vaccinating the elderly first. It really shouldn’t be a difficult concept to grasp, even for the guy who subjected the world to The Tommyknockers.
I thought this d-bag lived in Maine?
Why is he in Florida!! He’s from Maine
He does, or at least he claims to.
I have to wonder when Stephen King became a resident of Florida. I guess he got tired of Maine taxes.
probably wanted to get the vaccine faster than normal people in Maine. Either way, this guy has gotten nuttier without his meds.
If he is true to form, his complaint started with an unclear plot and concluded with a vague, confusing non-ending. He certainly isn’t a wine. He definitely isn’t getting better with age.
Yeah now the jacka@@ can run his trap when he was already vaccinated
Moderna cannot “kill this thing.”
So many unhappy libs that it’s a wonder how they manage to get through the day.
BINGO
I'll give King this though: Anyone who survives a car accident like nothing happens deserves a gold medal.
So we’re supposed to gain some sort of wisdom from a mere writer?
King is turning into some absurd character in one of his books. Look in the mirror Stephen and you will have your next horror tale.
I got mine done in Pasco where I live. There’s two places, one is at Sears parking lot at the mall or the other is at St. Leo’s University. He’s right it is very well organized by the National Guard working with the county. Never have to get out of the car.
Yuck. I was not aware the creep lives in Florida. Well, at least he’s not very close to me.
I think he was actually RUN OVER by a car while ambling along a rural highway in Maine - not in a car accident.
Either way, he needs to STFU and ENTERTAIN ME, though he hasn’t written anything worth reading since maybe, ‘The Stand.’ ;)
FL has exactly the same priority policy as CA.
The only diff is that FL has been rather more efficient in distributing the vaccines it has received.
Doses per 100 people - as of Feb 22
FL - 20.4
CA - 19.25
Note that includes both first and second dose. Completion will be theoretically 200%
If this was Captain Trips he wouldn’t be one the survivors, he’d be strung up somewhere.
His detective books, starting with Mr. Mercedes are very good. Better than much of the horror stuff imho.
