(The Center Square) – Responding to accusations made by California Gov. Gavin Newsom in a campaign ad criticizing him, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said Newsom treated Californians “like peasants” during nearly two years of COVID-19 lockdowns.

Gov. DeSantis made the remarks Friday at an event in Cape Coral, Florida, announcing the state’s plan to reduce prescription drug costs for Floridians.

“As he was locking down his citizens,” Gov. DeSantis said of Gov. Newsom, “he would then go and have these extravagant dinners at the French Laundry to basically rub his citizens’ noses in the fact that he was treating them like peasants.

“Peasants” is way too complimentary. “Lab rats” might be more appropriate.

DeSantis: California treats its residents like peasants

About 30% of California's voting population is campesinos and campesinas.

Needs more seasoning. 2028. Rubio’s next term will end also. We should be patient with DeSantis. It’s the rats who pick a POTUS in their mid-40’s appealing to their youth. The nation pays the price. Our most successful presidents were in their 70’s-remember? Unfortunately if he waits too long he’ll end up like Jeb.

I remember Trump refraining from criticizing Newsom during California’s Covid lockdowns, becaus Newsom had said nice things about Trumps ventilator delivery. Newsom knew how to manipulate Trump - compliment him.

Ron DeSantis knows how to play this game. We might be looking at a revised 1976 situation. Trump also knows how this game is played. The Democrats should should SHOULD!!! be utterly toxic by 2024. This is all assuming that elections still matter. We will know very soon.

Get real, the man is a career politician, who never held a real job or career outside politics.

Correct!

Peasants can be farmers, land owners, etc and can make their voices heard...

Californians are “serfs”, basically slaves that can be bought and sold, stolen from, and shackled with draconian laws while having no real chance to make their voices heard...
After all, no politician wants to listen to subhuman voices?

CA is living under feudalism and seems to be fine with it.
