I have to admit that I know relatively little about DeSantis, except he was proved right about COVID lockdowns, and his state is prospering when others are not, he’s anti abortion and a conservative across the board - and he won a purple state in a landslide.
No candidate is perfect, and all competent executives have to compromise to govern. It seems like he would be a good POTUS, based upon his record in FLA, and, most important, he’s electable - he doesn’t alienate people like Trump does.
No, he wasn't. In the spring of 2020 he imposed draconian lockdown orders that rivaled anything we saw from Nazi governors in New York, New Jersey, Michigan, California, etc.
You can still find video clips from as late as June 2020 where he and his Nazi health commissioner are bragging about how many restaurants they closed and liquor licenses they suspended over violations of these lockdown orders.
It's disgraceful that this guy and his sycophants had the b@lls to run around on the campaign trail in 2022 bragging about how he "defended freedom during COVID."
Don't buy the bullsh!t from an Ivy League lawyer who has never worked outside government in his life.
