Gov. DeSantis dodges booster shot question again
Florida Politics ^ | January 21, 2022 | A.G. Gancarski

Gov. Ron DeSantis remains vague about whether he received the COVID-19 booster shot.

In Sarasota Friday, the Governor was asked whether he had gotten the booster, a question he evaded previously, and he suggested yet again he may not have gotten the shot.

“So that’s something that I think people should make their own decisions on. I’m not going to let that be a weapon for people to use. I think that’s a private matter,” DeSantis said before turning the question as a cudgel against the Joe Biden administration.

“The FDA recommended against boosters for people in my age group, and the CDC overrode that,” DeSantis continued. “And I think that was based on politics.”

The Governor said two top FDA people resigned because of that.

“Many people didn’t hear about that. You know why? Because it didn’t fit the narrative. If you had a President of a different party, that would have been hair on fire stuff.”

That’s not a dodge.

It’s an appropriate answer under the circumstances.

It’s not his fault informed consent is fricking impossible.

Deep State is trying to gin up yet another game of lets-you-and-him-fight.

If the desperate frequency is anything to go by, I don’t think it’s working...

Goody.

The answer to all of these questions should be, “Nunya”.

Why post this Leftist propaganda crap on FR? Repeating the lies, strengthens the lies and Demoralizes the troops.

Post the TRUTH about the lies, not the lies themselves.

There has got to be a Republican on the national stage who will tell the obvious truth about the vaxx and boosters, “No, I have not had the booster because the damn thing doesn’t work!”.

I don’t care one way or the other.

Perhaps the proof is in the pudding my daughters got jabs and they got COVID.

If DeSantis gets COVID I guess he got the third jab.

This is why people in public office should never give medical advice to their constituents.

If you are a politician and you publicly call for people to get COVID vaccines, then your entire medical file should be a matter of public record. Otherwise, just shut the hell up and leave us alone.

It’s a poll tested political tap dance from DeSantis. I expect better from my governor. DeSantis is making public policy on this issue. He absolutely should tell voters where the rubber meets the road.

We need to stop calling the shot a vaccine because it obviously isn’t.

My answer would have been a two word expletive. The imperative form.

Which is why I’m not in politics. 😄
