19. Congrats Ron Death Sentence:

[spanone]

26. How many have died due to his direct lack of caring? He should be removed.

[ace3csusm]

31. More like charged with genocide ...

He is killing his own state...

[Oppaloopa]

36. He can't be removed Florida passed a law years ago forbidding that

[calimary]

42. Hey! I like that! Ron Death Sentence.

AZ8theist for the win!

Could also be written Ron DeathSentence. What on earth did Florida voters see in him, in the first place?

[AZ8theist]

43. They probably saw this unbelievably HONEST, ACCURATE, FACT-BASED......uh...ooops...

[NoMoreRepugs]

2. K&R.

3. I've thought the same thing.

Florida isn't on the border and Mexican immigrants aren't coming to Florida in droves and spreading the plague to the population. From what I've seen in articles about Covid victims, it seems like most Floridians in the hospital with Covid are white, or at least they aren't Mexicans. It's people who are too fucking obstinate to go and get a free vaccine that's available just about everywhere.

5. KNR. Apparently, neither geography nor logic are his strong suits.

[PatSeg]

10. And it doesn't matter

because he knows who his constituents are. He may be highly educated, but he knows they are not. Trump proved that you can say anything and they won't fact-check you.

[Midnight Writer]

24. Exactly. Blaming "foreigners" that are among us is a classic propaganda technique.

[PatSeg]

27. It's not even f*#king original

I swear these republican politicians have been using the same damn script for decades, only changing a word here and there to tag a different group to demonize. They don't sell their policies and expertise, they sell fear and hate, because hey, it keeps on working.

[sheilahi]

14. Idea

Hey, maybe he can borrow TFG's hurricane tracking Sharpie.

[Grokenstein]

6. Just feeding meat to his racist base.

They aren't about to question it.

[Wounded Bear]

7. Been hearing that one from some RW posters on another board...

"But what about all the immigrants bringing covid across the border? When is Biden gonna fix that?"

[sheilahi]

15. idjits

Chances are pretty good that they're the same people that won't get over those god damned emails.

[paleotn]

39. More than enough delta variant circulating among

red blooded Amurkins. If anything, it shows how desperate immigrants really are. Wherever they're coming from must be pretty damn bad to risk life and limb in the United States of Covid.

[hurple]

8. Bren reading Facebook comments

On posts about the uptick in COVID and vaccination and whatnot.

This whole "the surge in COVID vases is being caused by tons of immigrants illegally crossing the border" seems to be the new trumper go-to so they don't have to blame themselves for the COVID resurgence. I see that all the way from TX to IL and WA state. Even saw someone posting from Alaska complaining about COVID-positive illegal Mexicans yesterday.

The level of cognitive dissonance these so-called people have is incredible. I mean, seriously, they cannot even acknowledge reality when it is killing them.

[IronLionZion]

9. A shithole who saw how well it worked out for his hero, TFG

Ironically COVID response is what tanked Trump's reelection so maybe it will defeat DeathSentence too.

11. only a refuKKKchicken

[CaptainTruth]

12. It's those darn European immigrants again.

The ones who took the land from the Native Americans.

[2naSalit]

17. +1

[Evolve Dammit]

13. Deflection, obfuscation and lying constantly. Vile creatures all. Wouldn't visit FL if you paid me.

[Submariner]

16. That graphic and/or tweet will never be seen on OAN, Newsmax, or Fox

so the anti-vaccine dummies will never see proof of their stupidity. Sad.

18. DeSatan

May want to take a good look at his open ports with unmasked, in vaccinated cruise ship people going and returning from countries with massivevout breaks. The Columbia variant, reportedly worse that Delta and Lambda will get in via Miami. The mist used port entry from Columbia. And DeSatan and his cult are traveling all over the country. Here in WNC Floridiots are thick vacationing here. And when fall colors arrive, they are a thick as a free MAGA KKKlan rally featuring Trump and all his spawn in Georgia, MTG’s district, with free bud light in AmurKKKan flag cans wait until college football kick off in those red state venues. They travel to all states for games, lots of shit and lots of fans are on the horizon.

[patphil]

20. Jeez, I thought he was talking about Florida's border with Georgia and Alabama.

I figured that, since he was setting up for a Presidential run, he was showing off his ignorance to the Trump base as a way of endearing himself with them.

Hey Ronnie, you need to pay more attention to your own state. You've got some serious Covid shit going on down there. Or is your callous indifference to the health of Floridians more of your pandering to the Trump base? Yeah, I guess it is.

[Handler]

21. A quality education

will not keep a fool from doing foolish things. Ron DeSantis is most certainly a fool.

[yonder]

35. +1. Welcome to DU.

[Jon King]

22. He positioned himself between a rock and the MAGAs....

Wants so bad to be the 2024 nominee so he went as extreme as he could. Worked well for a while, but then delta variant came with a vengeance.

Now he is stuck, he can not moderate at all or the MAGATs will turn on him, but he has lost any possibility with independents and suburbans in 2024 in PA, MI, WI.

Lots of people died and suffered thanks to his blind ambitions.

23. K and R...Thank You for Posting This...

29. Floriduh is officially a death state !! stay there at your own risk !!

32. GQP are creating incidents of exasperation and delusion to sap our electoral energy

Meanwhile, the old GOP is working the phones ... I get calls, I'm invisible, yet my GQP Congressman calls me, the polling places call me, some Republicans want me to grab the Senate with them .... again this is very abnormal, they are leaving no stone unturned. We are being duped into inaction.

To all DUers I say, become active. Your local committeeman or woman, the events, fundraisers, the County Committee ... everywhere in the USA there is one, even if it's in a red state ... they all need energy and manpower ... outreach is as important as all the funding emails they send ...

Become active people!

33. Auto K&R for JT

It's getting to the point where I don't even need to read Jeff's tweets -- he is always spot-on!

[moondust]

34. Scapegoating.

Texas "governor" Greg Abbott scapegoated immigrants as far back as March, maybe earlier, and Iowa "governor" Kim Reynolds scapegoated migrants just last week. GQP loves the big lies and bullshit.

[Demovictory9]

37. K&r

[Dreampuff]

38. And the sad thing about all of this?

There was a recent poll and if the election would have been held just a few days ago, Charlie Crist would have barely beaten him. Nikki Freid would have lost to him. 🤔🤔🤔 Maybe that's why I think several people I encounter are really stupid.

[Skittles]

40. a racist, Trump-humping conservative governor

that's who

[ShazzieB]

41. I have exactly the same amount of respect for DeSenseless right now as I have for TFG.

Which is to say: less than zero. Considerably less than zero. Negative googolplex.
