Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' office fired back after a Sunshine State mayor asked where DeSantis is amid the rising coronavirus case count nationwide.
Democratic Mayor Jerry Demings of Orange County in Florida attacked DeSantis in a press conference Tuesday amid the rising COVID cases, saying residents in the state "should be outraged" with DeSantis not being in front of the media during the spike.
"Our residents, all Florida residents should be outraged, and they should ask the question, Now, where's our state? Where's our governor?" Demings said. "Where is Ron DeSantis now? When was the last time you saw the governor do a press briefing regarding COVID-19?"
The governor’s office fired back at the Democrats Thursday with a communications staffer writing on Twitter that just because DeSantis doesn’t have scheduled public events does not mean he’s taking a vacation.
"Just FYI, [DeSantis] is not on vacation. Literally no one from our office has said that he is," DeSantis staffer Kyle Lamb wrote on Thursday.
"Anyone pushing that could have easily seen the public schedule and seen that he's taking calls and meetings this past week," he continued. "Not having public events does not = 'vacation.'"

💥BOOM💥
The press licked it right up too.
Flatfooted and slow but at least they finally said something.
Oh, please.
Demings is a bottom dwelling loser
But out. DeSantis is the best governor our nation or state has ever had
That reminds me..is Biden still vacationing in Delaware?
Flat-footed on what?
Replying to moonbat media is pointless.
Is your goobermint failing you?
Where’s our president? Oh that’s right, he quit.
You sound like a democrat.
My prescription on this New Year's Eve is a big platter of Chinese food, a couple of Fog Cutters and then put on a comedy.
as opposed to the little faggot buttboi taking TWO MONTHS off for Maternity Leave while the economy burns...
As is his wife, U.S. Rep. Val Demings.
The actual response was from yesterday.
Meanwhile Forbes just posted this garbage: Florida Democrats Accuse DeSantis Of Disappearing — Here’s What We Know
At the same time Fox just posted this article saying he was right here.
They could have done the work and looked at the guy’s feed like Fox did.
The accusers are just trying to stir up negative vibes against DeSantis. Old political trick knowing a percentage will never hear/read any followup vindicating the Governor. Just a trick, but it does influence some voters. Act of desperation actually.
