Is Florida governor Ron DeSantis doing a good job with COVID?

[Anonymous]

Florid COVID Cases

Florida adds 901 deaths, largest single-day increase in pandemic history

Judge rules against Florida governor's ban on mask mandates

He's doing great

He's doing terrible

I'm going to say bad things about Joe Biden instead because I don't want to face my own mortality or acknowledge reality.

I don't pay attention. Just show me the votes.

[ObscuredBeyond]

He's a con man. Secretly, mask mandates aside, he's otherwise letting Dictator Obama's puppet have everything for nothing, while putting on a huge show of WWE to lull conservatives into complacence with false hopes. He's controlled opposition.

The jab IS Delta, and you Stockholm syndrome sufferers are the guinea pigs.

God gave you skin, sunlight, morals, and vitamins and minerals, and brains to figure out how to use them. Instead, you, in the hardness of your hearts, obey the lying priests of Gaia and of Sheetla Mata.

The only good that can be said of DeSantis, is that he at least won't tolerate Antifa's BS. Because what happened in Wisconsin and Minnesota, was a months-long version of Kristallnacht. That should never happen anywhere. Least of all on American soil.

Now, AOC wants the Taliban to invade us, full force, because the pie graph gods.

This is force. This is soft genocide. You either put those committing genocide to death, or they will never stop until you are all dead. That simple.

[dmgstarfleet]

go suck a ventilator hose-you're a blithering idiot. Guess what? we can FORCE you to take the vaccine. Now that Pfizer has been through final approval there is well settled law that you can be forced to get it. I hope they hog tie you and you sh*t all over yourself when they do.

[ObscuredBeyond]

@dmgstarfleet : The FDA is corrupt. This has been denonstrated time and again. Your speech was spoken like a true Nazi. Paperclip was a success. The Veil will rupture to the W Axis.

The planes beyond our own will finally be in total agreement on something. Your convictions will be fashioned into the whips that will shred you over and over everlastingly. All who lust for sadist despotism, shall find it.

[ObscuredBeyond]

@dmgstarfleet : FDA also didn't study anything to give it the seal of approval. They gave it their seal on word of recommendation from Fauci's wife. Nepotism.

Also, Congress legislates. The FDA doesn't get to make matters of law. So this is still criminal. You fail law and civics forever.

I'd tell you to go back to preschool, but I don't need you confused about which bathroom to use. And I wouldn't trust you around children either.

[dmgstarfleet]

Wow. You make absolutely no sense. Total word salad. You must have burst an artery and are having a stroke or something. Too bad your hospitals are all filled with non-vaxed Covid patients.

[ObscuredBeyond]

@dmgstarfleet : Actually, 90% got Delta FROM the jab, including a coworker of mine! And one catalyst of the exosome is toxic mold. She usually manages the cooler. So when I got to clean the doors earlier today, I found out about a leaky gasket. Lo and behold, what corporate said was no big priority to fix... led to black mold spreading like wildflower, and orange toxic slime mold.

Good thing I have low mold reactivity. Because she and everyone else denied there was a mold problem, I've now been exposed to the same alpha contagion catalyst as all of them.

[dmgstarfleet]

Damn you are so delusional it is a wonder you've lived this long. Your paranoia is a perfect example of who vaccine resisters are-mostly people just not in their right mind. You are experiencing severe psychosis. Call for help immediately.

[ObscuredBeyond]

@dmgstarfleet : All the usual NPC talking (non)-points.

[Anonymous]

It is interesting that you asked this question. I will give you an example on how the liberal-controlled media manipulates you and shapes your thinking. Yesterday, I saw multiple news stories abour how the Miami Herald newspaper was under fire for incorrectly reporting that there were 901 new deaths from covid during a single day and the largest ever for Florida! OMG! That is so horrible!! 🤯 Actually, it turns out, that was NOT true at all! The leftist media have perfected of these shock headline stories, designed to damage a Republican politician, then when they are caught in the lie, the keep their retraction very low-key. They can always say, "Well, we made a simle mistake and issued a retraction", for legal purposes but very few people recall seeing or hearing it. In this case, the Miami Herald is just ignoring the criticism and not even commenting on their bogus story. Why should they bother? They will just sit back and allow their mindless sheep followers to believe the lie and repost it all over the internet in order to damage the republican governor. This is how the liberal media shapes public opinion against republicans. Sadly, the people who run the democrat party now control over 90% of the media, and they have total control over the public school system, universities and colleges. How many teachers do you know that is not liberal? I just read a story where an elementary school teacher posted a video where she bragged that she does not allow the American flag in her classroom because it offends her. She does have a gay pride flag, though. One of her students asked what they were supposed to look to when they say the pledge of allegiance, and she told the little kid to pledge their allegiance to the gay pride flag. This crap is going on all over the country right now, and these people want to destroy the USA.

Here are some articles about how DeSantis did his best to cover up COVID cases.

[Asker]

Currently more than 17,000 people are hospitalized with COVID in Florida.

[supercutebutt]

He's a fucking nightmare who knows half of people in his state are total morons. So he has to appeal to them. FYI: He secretly HATES these people. :)

[God_of_Thunder]

I will try to keep my personal opinion out of my response, and look at the issue objectively.

I think there is an inherent conflict of interest in DeSantis's priorities. His largest campaign contributor is a large investor in the Regeneron monoclonal antibody treatment. So he has a vested finacial interest in pushing said treatment, rather than vaccines & masks.

That fact, alone, calls his decisions into question, since he technically benefits from every single person that uses Regeneron's treatment. More infected people = more treatment = more money.

Whether I, or anyone else, agrees with his decisions on masking, or not, I feel like his objectivity should be questioned as a result, and he should not be allowed to make policies concerning public health, when he stands to directly benefit from a specific outcome.

[Oigit]

Elected officials are not some powerful beings that can control everything. Despite many people acting and treating them as if they are. So having one shoulder all the blame for everything is simply illogical. A lot of regular people played a part in those 901 cases. A lot of times I think people are so quick to blame elected officials to free themselves from having to accept their part in a given issue. The same thing does happen when people blame the other side of the political isle they are apposed to.

[molonski2]

Quite obviously a GREAT job..
1. Cases dont matter
2 . Masks are yet to useless..

The key is vaccination , this cannot be mandatory , can only be suggested , thats been done. But , seriously the utter fools who think that " lockdowns work " should go and get themselves educated , its first to 80 % one way or another.

You only have to look at the quite horrendous actions in Australia / New Zealand , WHAT A JOKE ! Military in the streets via " state of emergency " Australia the world is watching , and we can now see why you remain a penal colony.
Look to Singapore / Denmark ( October ) / Sweden..
The USA , the leader of the FREE WORLD , we do not wish to see Socialist / Communist ideas of Lockdowns / Masks / and ludicrous laws.
Self responsibility , functional immune systems , exposure , bmi , its called self responsibility.. GREAT JOB !

[NamerOfStars]

Better than anyone else, except Noem, and maybe Tegnell. Covid is here, and it's not going anywhere. You have two options either accept it, try to shelter the vulnerable, and let the young and strong go out to get infected and recover- and some will die. Or you can shelter and try to hide from it, protecting the young and strong and trying to minimize the spread- and everyone who would've died had you taken the first option still will, along with a BOATLOAD of other people. You'll cripple your economy and the mental health of absolutely ALL your citizens, but hey, your chances of re-election are better.

[888theGreat]

1) Yes
2) He is following the Constitution , that is the right of the individual over the rights of a group of people.
3) Everyone that dies , media says it was Covid.

The Constitution out ranks any governing body. So , if 10 million people have to die to honor the rights of one person based on the constitution , then so be it. No different in the battle field. Same with justice , "It is better for 100 guilty men go free , than convict one innocent man" There is no difference than that and Covid.

[ObscuredBeyond]

The part of the bill be signed that lets the constitution be overrun, so the elderly can be jabbed against their will, is null and void under the constitution. But will he enforce the supreme law, when even the courts won't acknowledge it? Will he rally with sheriffs to depose judges acting in bad faith at the behest of investors? Will he do anything about lawbreakers who assault the elderly with Delta? This will be the true test of Ron's character.

[The-Wise-Phoenix]

The Democrats are very worried about this guy. He is cut from the same stone as Trump.
However he is calmer and doesn't shoot his mouth off all the time. He is a capable statesman who could very well run for president in 2024 and be a very formidable candidate.
So I understand why many people are talking about him.

[CreamySeed]

Dems are threatened by him so they have to attack him

[rjroy3]

What's your criteria for success? Low death rate? Low transmission? Low hospital numbers? These are relevant questions.

In my book, Low deaths and having as close to normal life is the ultimate criteria of success and he meets that. So in that regard he's handling it well.

If just having Low covid numbers is your exclusive measure of success and whatever that takes is an after thought... then I think your process is flawed.

[ObscuredBeyond]

She is ignoring New York and California, just to trash Florida, to defend Dictator Obama's puppet, Joe the Potato. That she brought him up first betrays her true inside: replaced with all the detergent pods she ate to cope with 4 years of Trump.

[FakeName123]

The high Covid numbers happening in Democratic Counties mostly.

Just saying that this may or may not necessairly have to do with the no lockdowns he is doing. There a lot of other factors such as vaccinated people apparently happening to get higher covid infections, illegal aliens bringing in covid, city vs rural area, etc.

[genericname85]

people will always die to flu type diseases. the question is: can you affort fucking the economy with mask mandates and lockdowns or will that eventually cost so much, that the already overpriced health system will either collaps or become unaffordable for the majority of people...

i prefer a way that "informs" people (not with fear mongering but with actual scientfic facts) and just let them decide what's best. because it's the people who form society. not the government.

[genericname85]

and for "facts" you can also put facts 2 ways. you could say: "99.95% of people that get covid survive covid even without a vaccination" or you could say. "oh my god billions will die" ... asterisk somewhere unreadable in the fine print: "within the next 10 years"

you can make opinions with facts without lying.

if you wanna mandate that masks help with death rates and infections, you gotta proof it. the cdc and the WHO actually tried to proof it. all the studies they conducted show, that it actually doesn't do shit. that's why we're not seeing any hard evidence used in the public discussion. just fear mongering numbers without proof of correlation.

[Stoner710]

I would say he is the case and surviving rate is important so we don’t over run the hospitals but the death rate is more important he has 16,470 death in total vs the case rate being kind of high but not to many death. Another factor we have to look at is Florida has the oldest population outside of Maine which has 7 people and a moose but it is 1.3 million compared to Florida which has 20.2 million I would say there pretty well given all the factors

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I believe he would be first in line to be on the Republican ticket for US President of the United States, It all depends on how things go with President Biden, He got 4 years to turn America around, If he fails to do so nothing will happen, Gov Ron DeSantis could give Biden and Harris a run for his money

[Kenzy009]

He is doing a great job, beacuse he is defending people rights and freedom. I don't messure the goverment based on number of virus cases. Its not their job to control a fucking virus orther then provide medication, vacinees, give recomendations and close borders to stop the virus getting into the country

[molonski2]

Very well said , freedom is most important issue at hand , self responsibility. Its a Virus ! It must be lived WITH.

[exitseven]

Florida has a very large elderly population and he took care of them. He did not put infected patients in with others in nursing homes and when the vaccine came out he vaccinated them first.

[BCRanger10]

I'm very excited for him to perfectly humiliate Kamala Harris in 2024.

[The-Wise-Phoenix]

He will be a very strong candidate if he should run for president.

[MarkRet]

As governor, he should be on top of the COVID issue in Florida. Florida has horrible numbers in COVID, so that reflects on him.

[Kenzy009]

What do you want him to do exacly?

[MarkRet]

@Kenzy009 - He could have taken COVID seriously at the start, when it was easier to deal with, like asking people to wear masks, limiting large gatherings, not opening the state too early for tourism. Instead, he chose to not take it seriously, and blow it off, like Trump.

[oddwaffle]

Money is more important than lives. Who cares about the unvaccinated and weakass people? If the husband die due to Covid, I will become the boyfriend of their hot wives.

[t-8900]

If NY wants to lose all it's businesses and go bankrupt, good for NY. I think DeSantis knows you can't keep the economy afloat with constant welfare checks and no one working to cover the costs.

[CasuallySamsonite]

Shoot the man for mass murder... same for any other politician directly responsible for spreading lies that lead to the loss of American life.

[dray995]

I’d rather shoot you instead, you stupid jackass!

[Anonymous]

Hell no, as someone who lives in FL he really could not be handling COVID any worse.

[dray995]

Lies! Quit listening to the lying media!

[Iron_Man]

No he’s opening things up way too early and he’s cutting the COVID 19 Unemployment off on September 4th

[t-8900]

get people back to work before the state goes bankrupt. Sounds wise to me. Especially with Covid survival rates.

[Iron_Man]

@t-8900 We’re not getting phone calls how are we getting back to work in the handyman business?

[t-8900]

when businesses open back up, people will need things fixed.

[Iron_Man]

But they’re not opening up it’s getting worse and worse even the restaurants are closing the dine in before 8 o’clock it’s like a ghost town in a big city

[Iron_Man]

And September 4 is coming right around the corner everyone is getting cut off. The6 only give them $125 a week anyway

[t-8900]

If people get back to work they have to buy food, lunch for instance, maybe hit the cafe before work. What's going on now is not sustainable and it won't work. Would you rather the state's treasury just completely dry up and allow infrastructure to go to shit? The USA is on borrowed time. At this point you can try to make things work for as long as possible, or just wait for the chaos to ensue, which it surely will when they dont have anything left to stockpile emergency supplies and rations with.

[Iron_Man]

@t-8900 they’ve asked us to stay home for months and months over a whole year and it’s getting worse and worse so now what? Blame China

[Iron_Man]

People are gonna start losing their houses If not already

[t-8900]

@Iron_Man welp don't forget the people who basically gave the keys to china and russia to screw us over. It wasn't people like DeStantis who did that. If people stay paralyzed and refuse to get work... any work at this point then you can be most assured this country is going to Balkanize and collapse in short order. We're going broke, there's no loyalty or trust amongst the citizenry, everyone hates the government, patriotism is dead, food supplies are running out, I mean what exactly are we supposed to do? Roll over and die?

[Iron_Man]

@t-8900 I’m not gonna take on any job that’s absolutely ridiculous I have a trade i’m skilled I’m not gonna flip burgers for minimum wage while I lose my home that’s absolutely ridiculous. I’m not a 16-year-old teenager working at a dead end job. I didn’t bring COVID-19 I suggest you practice what you preach And go to work at Taco Bell and see how you like it

[t-8900]

Ah so you're too good for it, that's what you're saying. I work at Walmart while going to school. Any other remarks? Live isn't fair, shit happens, deal with it. We all have to. You can go back to your job as soon as it becomes available again.

[Iron_Man]

@t-8900 Hell no

[t-8900]

welp when welfare runs out and you get hungry enough I'm sure you'll learn to prioritize what's important.

[Iron_Man]

That’s probably all you know is Walmart at the age of 31 so that’s normal to you but when you’re in my shoes that’s not normal to regress back to your teenage stage where you can’t even understand what taco Bell employees are saying absolutely no

[Iron_Man]

I don’t think Florida is going to go bankrupt giving somebody $125 a week that’s absolutely nothing all the dust to get food

[Iron_Man]

Besides I lost by $1.2 million house in a tax auction because I was behind my property taxes which is dead wrong after all these years I Owned my childhood home and they should know Mercy

[t-8900]

I mean I'm getting bumped up to Management. I dont like trades so I didn't take one. Shit on it if you want, I'll be making good money and have full benefits. Go to my profile page, that pic? That's my grandfather. He grew up in Fascist Italy, he was apart of Operation Barbarossa, he had been shit on a lot in life and had nothing. So when you make your petty complaints about reverting to a job with less money all's I hear is "I'm too good" with a spoiled attitude.

[Iron_Man]

Showed

[t-8900]

We dont live in the world of fair, we live in the world of reality and she's a cruel bitch. We take what's thrown at us and keep moving on. That's how this goes, we dont get to quit. Count your blessings you aren't one of the people trapped in Afghanistan right now.

[Iron_Man]

I’ve seen how you talk to cool Hispanic guy belittling him and you’re basically trolling me as well and I’m not gonna put up with it. You have no idea what you’re talking about and what pain I’ve experienced you live in a fairytale world and all you know is Walmart so don’t say a word to me about anything. One more time I’m gonna block you

[t-8900]

Actually I've been a Massage Therapist, Cashier, Car Wash, Burger Flipper, Walmart Employee, and Worked in a Retirement home. So yeah, you don't know. Block me if you want. You're another cornfed spoiled American that thinks life owes him something for his hard work. Society may have told you that lie, but it's not the reality of the world. You're concerned about $125 a week when you could be making 4-5 times that just getting a job while you wait. Like I said, you get hungry enough you'll work for your food like everyone else.

[Iron_Man]

@t-8900 that was when you were younger you’re only 31 So basically you’re an American Basher wow a professional troll you have no idea what you’re talking about: You have wasted 45 minutes of my time today you probably live at home with your parents and you have no idea what life is all about. Come live in my world hot shot and see how you end up flat on your face

[Iron_Man]

I warned you and now you’re gonna have to be disciplined in time out you go

[DWornock]

It is nice to know that at least one governor is standing up for our rights that are being trampled on by an evil oppressive federal government.

[CreamySeed]

He respects that we are a constitutional democratic republic with certain inalienable rights in all citizens. Your medical tyranny does not belong in Florida.

[CreamySeed]

The “do whatever you want” governor shreds libtards to pieces how can he possibly not be a dictator like Cuomo or Newsom, I want my dictator!! boo hooo

[NYCQuestions1976]

Better overall numbers than New York and California since all this began.

[NYCQuestions1976]

Let me clarify: As of Friday, 8/27/2021, Florida has fewer deceased Covid patients (43,979) than California (65,629) and New York (54,152). Florida has more overall cases (3,223,249) than New York (2,260,536), but fewer overall cases than California (4,309,137).

[ObscuredBeyond]

Translation: more tyranny isn't the answer. And those imposing it should be hanged. Along with their sycophants.

[ChefPapiChulo]

California has a higher population.

[EyesOfGod]

The people of Florida haven't called for him to step down so obviously he's doing good at something.

[anylolone]

By those numbers, it's doing pretty fine compared to newyork, cali, NJ, etc.

[zagor]

He's an idiot, like just about every other governor I can think of.

[bingbongbangbung]

Coming from an anonymous troll who doesn't have any position of power

[zagor]

@bingbongbangbung Anonymous? Hardly. And if you were a bit smarter you'd realize that the mechanisms by which elected leaders are chosen in the US have little or nothing with the actual ability to run things and make wise decisions.

[willyham2021]

Of COURSE more stupid MEN think an idiot is doing a "great" job! 🤣

[ObscuredBeyond]

They think controlled opposition is doing better a job than a full blown tyrant. Masks never did jack, except spread bacteria. I still have a lump on my neck from an infection caused by irritation.

Would you rather be in one of Bill Leed's concentration camps in Tennessee, simply because you were branded a domestic terrorist for demanding police give a reason for breaking into your home, shooting your dog, and stealing your Kindle- which in the pre-Operation Mockingbird dictionary, was the actual definition of domestic terrorism?

[willyham2021]

@ObscuredBeyond Thanks for sharing the depth of your abject stupidity.

[ObscuredBeyond]

Thanks for sharing your abject cuckery for iron-fisted tyranny. You'll have no shortage of it in Sheol, so no worries there. Your gaslighting won't intimidate me.

[willyham2021]

@ObscuredBeyond I'm not gaslighting fuck all, I'm telling you outright you are a stupid asshole.

LMFAO!! Threats of a make believe punishment aterlife!! 🤣🤣🤣 Idiot

[dray995]

And idiots think a good man who doing a great job is an idiot! You godless jackass!

[dray995]

*who is

[dray995]

@willyham2021, eat a gun you fucking douchebag!

[willyham2021]

@dray995 Fuck you, and fuck your make believe, psychopath god.

[Snakeyes7]

He's not a tyrant like DeBlasio so thats all that matters.

[Anonymous]

Anyone governor who doesn't "mandate" these harmful COVID shots is a person I'd potentially vote for, for president.

[Kenzy009]

If you 45 plus in age. I think the risks of covid outweights the risk of the vaccines, but I agree with you on what you said

[Opinion Owner]

@Kenzy009 These NON-APPROVED so-called "vaccines" are very risky for EVERYONE.
I'd rather take my chances on the China-Virus ANY day

[Hillary86]

If he’s goals to spread the virus he’s doing great.

[Better_off_here]

he is doing terrible look at his state and what is going on. shame on them all.

[Kenzy009]

So you're telling me Africa is leading the world in politics. The places with the worst Covid cases has been Europe number 1. North america number 2. blaming the goverment is for not supressing rights is stupid

[dray995]

@Better_off_here
Where is your proof besides the lies you hear from the media, you godless puppet!

[QuietRunner]

Does he want people to get vaccinated?

Isn't that an anti-COVID19 thing?

[Asker]

Is it working?

[QuietRunner]

Is it working everywhere else?

I saw on TV people outside without masks on and the news reporters not wearing masks.

[Anonymous]

Not really, but that's okay. He cares about tourism.

[Still-alive]

moar like ron desuckie

[MountAverage]

He should be in prison for how he's handling it.

[Caunsos]

This just a political ship post.

[msc545]

Just great if you happen to be a mortician.

[exitseven]

At least he did not put infected nursing home patients in with un-infected patients.

[msc545]

@exitseven I would not be surprised if he did that too.

[exitseven]

it never happened. If it did the democrats would be screaming about it to deflect from their guy that actually was stupid enough to do it.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

He's my governor. As expected, he's bad.

[The-Wise-Phoenix]

Would you really rather have had a seedy character like Andrew Gillum as governor?

[t-8900]

@The-Wise-Phoenix he probably wants to stay on the free handouts longer.

[ChefPapiChulo]

politics will override logic 100% of the time.

[Sabretooth]

depends on who you ask.

[Asianguy123]

All politicians are corrupt

[Kenzy009]

He is acting in the best interest of the wish of the poeple and he chooses to priortize defenting rights and freedom. An issue of diffrent opinion
