Great article posted here earlier today comparing the job DeSantis has done vs. Cuomo. Cuomo being exalted despite magnitudes greater deaths and illness despite metrics that say Florida could’ve been in same boat. I think we are seeing DeSantis’s good leadership aimed at protecting people first and Cuomo who’s leading through the good ‘optics’ (nifty PowerPoint presentations and on national TV every day) and what can be gained politically.

Haha I actually live in that county. That was spear headed by one person on the committee and even after they voted to dial it back some that dude was still pushing for it.

The mayor tried making face masks mandatory but the emergency committee denied that shit real quick.

He was always MAGA as a Congressman, why would he be any different now?

I’d never really paid attention to him before. From what the fake news said, they made him sound like some kind of retard. But I’m reading his resume now... this dude is legit.... captain of baseball team at Yale, Harvard Law, deployed to Iraq..

Harvard and Yale spawn deep-state goblins, and usually attending either of those institutions would be a yuge red flag, ...but DeSantis seems okay.

The athletes tend to be more normal, as they’re recruited for sports and not things like legacy connections. There are republicans at these schools too. Going there just means you’re a high achiever.

I mean, he put on a mask wrong!

But wait - no-!!!! Don't look at Sheila Jackson Lee putting on an N95 mask wrong. Or Chuck Schumer!

Noooooo, keep staring at Desantis putting a mask on incorrectly! How stupid are these R governers man...Eco Fascim ftw.

I was reading his bio myself because I might have to send him a letter for help with Florida’s shitty as education system.

But this dude didn’t just deploy, he deployed as a legal advisor for the special operations command in Fallujah.

Because some claim to be MAGA and when rubber meets the road they flip. Not saying this is Desantis at all, never doubted him, but some can turn.

I don’t know much about him. But he strikes me as a really nice guy who moved to Florida to escape the northeast hell hole of high taxes and shit and now loves it in Florida.

My job had me call almost every pharmacy in CA and FL. It was down right amazing how friendly the FL folks were. The people in CA were shit cuz their state is shit I think.

Thanks! I want to go to Florida so bad but no one to go with haha. I feel Florida is so American as an outsider.

Why is that? People from CA and NY are total jerks now but Floridians are such friendly and relaxed people. Usually whenever someone's friendly, they're a huge flake. But Floridians are not flaky either
