In the spring of 2020 DeSantis imposed lockdowns in Florida that were pretty much identical to what we saw from Nazis in California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, etc. And then he and his sycophants had the b@lls to run around on the campaign trail in 2022 bragging that he had been a “protector of freedom during COVID.”

The guy is exactly what I would expect from a slimy Ivy League lawyer who has worked in government all his life.

That’s a concern.

DeSantis imposed lockdowns

Only after the direct guidance from the Trump administration was released. We've already gone over this in detail, I can link that thread if necessary.

Ivy League

Trump went to an Ivy League school as well. And while Trump brags about his Ivy League education, DeSantis has consistently put his Ivy League experience down.

I remember 2020.It wasn't the federal government that stopped us from flying to FL. It was the governor of FL who required that we quarantine alone for 14 days after we got off the plane.

Trump said no to federal restrictions at that time. So DeSantis imposed his own.

Whoa, calm down people, DeSantis was pro vaccine like trump and all other politicians, what he wasn’t was for total irrational shut downs, once fl shut down for a few months, he realized they weren’t working so he opened things up, never forced schools to mask up cause evidence and even science showed kids weren’t getting covid. When they started mandating vaccines for corporations, he drew the line. He didn’t know more than anyone else and wanted to help people. He also opened free clinics for medicine that kept 90% of covid victims out of hospitals. The same time Biden was restricting covid vaccines to Florida and even cut off the medicine (forgot the name of it, but made from blood donors of people who had previously had covid) when Biden threatened to cut off the antidote,DeSantis simply said he would buy it directly from the manufacturers and he did.
Evidence speaks for itself, if his shut downs were like the blue states, then why was half the country living in Florida back then?
He is going after the vaccine manufacturers for all the lies told about the vaccines, things he and no one else knew back then. Now we know it does not prevent covid, does not prevent spread and dubious if it makes the symptoms less severe, like how can they prove a hypothetical. Sure it’s a political ploy, but a good one nevertheless and has a solid basis. I’m a transplant in FL from PA, there is no comparison in the life in FL to our families back in PA during that time. At its worse, maybe 3/4 at most even wore masks at Walmarts and places like that, we didn’t miss a beat.

Trump elevated Fauci and pressured Brian Kemp to keep the state closed down. Even when Kemp tried to reopen Georgia, he publicly attacked him. Sit down.
