Preview For This Week's Top 10 Conservative Idiots

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is hawking campaign merchandise that calls out Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious disease expert, as well as the mask guidelines that were rolled out across most of the country last year to slow the spread of the coronavirus that causes COVID-19.

The gear includes $21 T-shirts and $12 drink koozies that say, “Don’t Fauci My Florida.” Some pieces include the tagline “Keep Florida Free.” There’s also a beverage cooler that reads, “How the hell am I going to be able to drink a beer with a mask on?” — which is a quote from DeSantis, himself.

Meanwhile, the Sunshine State has been experiencing a spike in new COVID-19 cases, and recording almost four times the average number of daily cases of the coronavirus in the U.S., according to The Washington Post. What’s more, the death rate from COVID-19 in Florida is almost double the national average, and the state ranks fourth in the number of COVID hospitalizations. There have been more than 2.4 million coronavirus cases reported in Florida, and more than 38,000 deaths.

Merchandising! Merchandising! That's where the real money from the disease is made! Never mind that people are getting sick or dying, tell your friends you don't want a vaccine by spending $35 on this trashy t-shirt! Let 'em know where you stand!

**audience laughs and applauds**

This week the Top 10 is all new live from San Diego! Kevin McCarthy attempts to derail the January 6th Commission, Fox News attempts to rewrite history, conservatives are trying to villify Fauci, the FBI attempted to find tips on Kavanaugh, and we ask how is Eric Clapton's Career Still A Thing? Plus in a new Top 10 Investigates - what's up with Chicago's gun violence problem? Short answer: It's all the NRA"s fault! And in our weekly visit to the Holy Church Of The Top 10 in "Holy Shit" - it's Great Patriot Takeover, Charlie Brown! Well, our resident pastor is going to get to the bottom of a brewing political holy war! We also have a new "I Need A Drink" - why are Jeff Bezos and Richard Branson shooting off into space in giant penis shaped rockets? Well we need more than a few drinks to sort this one out! And in our ongoing series on the election that will never end, Red State Diaries, could audit madness be coming to Idaho? Yeah we're just as puzzled as everyone else!
