He wan’t making a point. He was laying out facts. Trying to parlay the statement of facts into a position is disingenuous. It is a tactic used by partisans.
I would disagree that he is not trying to make a point.
He’s trying to make the case that Florida did -something- wrong or different regarding COVID-19 that resulted in more deaths than NY. He is unable to articulate -what- Florida did wrong or should have done differently.
He certainly is using the point to cast blame on DeSantis.
