I just heard De Santis. He is dancing a jig, using words like apprehension,

safety, hurdle, help, Healthcare facilities, water problems, safety, basic services, support, supplies, work with fema, thankful, and other words he has never used. Road situation is apparently pretty good except for Sanibel Island.

He's not, IMHO, a good public speaker. No pauses, no overall structure, no changes in tone or inflection, no idea he actually understands what he's talking about - just a run-on drone.
