Like Wile E. Coyote, the self-anointed geniuses in the political media just keep trying to spring new traps on Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. And like the Road Runner, DeSantis keeps escaping with his head high while his pursuers’ plans detonate in their faces.
Example: The building collapse in Surfside, Fla., has cost at least 11 lives, likely many more. There must be some way to blame DeSantis, right?
Hannah Dreier of The Washington Post claimed on Twitter that “FEMA was ready to deploy to the condo collapse almost immediately, and included the crisis in its daily briefing, but didn’t get permission from Gov.

And not just our Deep State.
We’ve seen this before, haven’t we...

I’m waiting for the stories of him from kindergarten in 1983. He was 3 when the tower was built but some blame him anyway. You know how those three year olds are. They say no to everything so of course he said no to reinforcing the beams to keep them safer. 3-year olds!!
Bush could have called him and told him to announce an emergency declaration. Bush also could have went to the media and said, “FEMAs ready. Waiting on governor. No sympathy for him.
We have seen this before. Sarah Palin.
The libs are scared of Mr. DeSantis.
1- W did call the LA. Governor.
2 - You expected the media to help W?
I think your fashionable hatred for W is clouding your judgment.
Naw. W was awesome. Two wars. Lost the house giving nancy the Speakership. Huge deficit. He’s great…..
Again; I was talking about the dem playbook.
You seem to have a one track mind.
Maybe this will help..
DEM PLAYBOOK!!!!!!
