NP. This doesn’t surprise me at all, since he’s a high level male politician whom many people adore, but I’m curious what proof or stories have been leaked? I haven’t seen anything yet. |

Regarding COVID statistics: there was some issue whereby Florida was using different criteria for measuring the effects of COVID among its citizens than every other state so that the numbers could not be compared in any meaningful way.
I don't remember the details, but hopefully someone can explain that here. |
They had the excess deaths, they just had some coroners who refused to say they were Covid deaths. Those are the big jumps innunexplained “senility” and “pneumonia” deaths in Florida’s stats. |
This is a conspiracy theory. Look up CDC mortality data. |
|
Why aren’t more Florida dems who hate DeSantis so much moving out?
We NEVER hear much about this? Why is that? |
We did. |
Warm winters |

So when you are asked to conserve water because H2O is needed to generate more oxygen when the hospitals are running out, then yeah your governor f&$& ‘ed up pretty bad. Regardless, the unnecessary deaths from COVID are beside the point.
What DeSantis and Trump both do very well is to read what the crazies want and seize on those aspects which resonate fears and conscious or unconscious bias in the people who will tolerate the nuts. They aren’t leaders, they are followers. This is why Trump could not get people to take the vaccine even though he wanted credit for it. He tried, was boo’d and quickly did an about face. DeSantis doesn’t care about immigration or immigrants. Shipping the bus to MA got him earned free media and fed the red base of sludge voters. Same with all the attacking lgtb kids. His own kids go to private school that doesn’t pull that crap and wasn’t anti mask or vaccine. It is a calculation only as to where the base is at. If the winds blew a different direction, he’d switch course. His let COVID rip through our state was originally about the state budget. Florida is not very diversified without tourism and hospitality they are dead. Florida didn’t have the money to pay everyone who was eligible , the problems in their unemployment system are a feature not a bug. |
Well, you're clearly terrible at math. In The Palm Beach Post I posted above (and you clearly ignored) reports that findings from the CDC report "The coronavirus has killed more people aged 65 and over in Florida than any other state in the nation." So, until you can show me show me something other than your non-data and alternative math, I'll go with the experts. And, so should Floridians. We know that the state's Dept of Health was starting an investigation of the state's reporting of Covid deaths. I didn't hear of that happening in any other state. Your boy Desantis is no friend of seniors. Just own it. https://climate.law.columbia.edu/content/covid-19-data-misrepresented-florida-governor |
Are you referring to Rebekah Jones, the nut who "blew the whistle," only for the feds to find out she was a complete whack job who had committed a felony? Oh. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-florida-whistleblo-idUSKBN29N230 |
+1 They must not hate it *that* much. What we hear about - constantly - is how many people are moving IN to Florida. DeSantis is clearly doing a lot of things right. |
This. It's really beyond amusing to see all the made up hysteria about a governor who just won a MASSIVE landslide reelection. |
You are responding to - and taking the word of - a troll. Seriously?

You're joking, I hope? You have to DIVIDE that total number of deaths by the total number of people over 65 living in FL. That's how you get a percentage that you can use to compare states. Right? Right? |
