A video obtained by Fox News Digital shows former Florida governor and current Congressman Charlie Crist, D-Fla., telling attendees at a campaign event in Wilton Manors, Florida, that if he were elected, he would be open to a statewide mask mandate.
An event attendee asked, "Congressman, thank you for coming. You mentioned the pandemic. Hopefully it is behind us. But as Florida’s governor, would you be open to mandating or regulating masks?"
"I would be open to doing what scientists advise — not political scientists," Crist responded. "Yes. I just read an article this morning. I'm glad you brought it up. So I'm going to the airport right after this. I’m going to Orlando, and I'm going to wear a mask on the plane. You don't have to anymore, but I'm going to because Florida is experiencing an uptick that began this week. And it's not even the Omicron B2. It’s a new variant."
Florida GOP Vice Chairman Christian Ziegler told Fox News Digital, "Charlie Crist being ‘open’ to imposing mask mandates is one of the most out-of-touch positions Crist has ever taken, which is really saying something."

Yes, Danton said “He will go far, he believes everything he says.’l
18 months later he got shortened.
If he’s worried about the China Virus then he really should get vaccinated.
The question is can the democrats manufacture enough votes this time…they got 30,000 last time but needed a few more…
Plus we have all the democrats who have moved here…like my neighbor from Jersey..a Biden sign in the yard..
Charlie Christ is still alive?
Anyone going against DeSantis will have to be superman. Mask mandate is not a superman move.
Masks in FLA in 2022? He’s nuts!
Yeah, go with that Charlie!
Donk diapers.
Charlie loves mandates.
I want to see what Marijuana Girl (aka Nikki Fried Brain) to hear her position on the mask.. Right now, Ron is way ahead. After Ron, I’ll vote my dog’s 💩 before Nikki or Charlie! 🤓
Charlie is trying to lose... (Not to Ron, but to Nikki)
He’s got to know this won’t work in Florida. My guess is that he isn’t really running for governor, he just wants a cabinet position in the next Democrat administration.
Hey Charlie Crist - you gerbil wanking sod - you are like that little punk on the airplane, getting in Mike Tyson’s face. The only mask mandate you you could run with is a Fat Tuesday Mardi Gras contest - capice?
Republicans in Florida have topped 100K registration over democrats. A first time ever. Democrats for decades or more always beat us in registrations.
So the offerings will be
Crist: Return to slavery
DeSantis: Freedom
DeSantis in a Landslide.
Running an opposition campaign to Liberty... idiot.
Mask mandates are sure to be the winning issue.
What planet does this idiot live on?
Face Diapers are for IDIOTS........PERIOD!
4 more years...
desantis for florida governor 2022...
