If he runs in 2024 - a big IF since Trump looks like he may run again and in the process squeeze out all other hopefuls - then he will have to run on his COVID record of keeping the virus alive through his anti mask policies while at the same time angering conservatives nutjob antivaxxers. Doesn't seem like recipe to win reelection, much less the Presidency.
I read the article. Much of it was inaccurate reporting... as usual.
DeSantis urged people to get vaccinated... IF THEY WANTED TO. He made the vaccines available to everyone that wanted to get it but has not mandated it. He's followed the science and conclusions of the CDC and top infectious disease experts that said children wearing masks is not necessary, and in some cases even abusive.
Sure... some zealots took his urging of people to get vaccinated as a sign of him flip-flopping. Can't make everyone happy all the time, right? Some people will find anything to be miserable about.
His record on handling Covid will turn out to be absolutely IMPECCABLE... unlike other Governors in Blue states like NY, California and Michigan. Once the evidence is made available to see the amount of illegal immigrants that have been bussed into Florida (in an obvious attempt to flood the state with Covid and potential liberal voters, hence the reason they don't want people to have to present voter ID card in order to vote) it will be clear that the Democrats attempt to disrupt and undermine Governor DeSantis and Florida will be exposed.
Of course, it will be labeled as #fakenews because CNN will report that there is no significant data that supports such claims... but the truth will be there for anyone with a brain to see.
People from all over the country... MANY from Blue states such as NY, Illinois, California, Massachusetts, etc are FLOCKING to Florida by the thousand per day. Do you think they are doing this because of how nice the weather is down here??
No... they are doing it because they are tired of the government telling them what to do, where to go, how to live, when they can work, socialize, visit family, go to school, go shopping... LIVE THEIR LIVES. Its a crazy concept I know... but people actually do want to be FREE to make their own choices!!
They recognize that DeSantis will not interfere with their pursuit of life, liberty and happiness.
ROCKSTAR.
