Wow, what a lunatic!

[LakeArenal]

1. Good bye all you old effers that voted Republican.

[ret5hd]

3. Maybe we could crowd-fund a

“Herman Cain Field”

Kinda like potters field… but for the militantly anti-vaxxed.

I’d be willing to donate $0.15 or $0.20.

[LakeArenal]

11. Monthly???? Wow you must be rich!!!!

[ret5hd]

18. One time...the way I figure it is...

we put it on that golf course where ivana is “buried” (ha! ha ha! ha ha ha ha ha!)…and we put a funnel on the casket that ivana is “buried” in (ha! ha ha! ha ha ha ha ha!) and just use that till it’s filled. Gotta be lots of room in there as there is ONLY ivana, right?

2. I feel sorry for the normal people in Florida

Is Florida still the number one destination for retirees? They better think twice before moving there. COVID kills the elderly first.

[atreides1]

20. Okay

Who would you define as "normal"?

Personally, I feel sorry for everyone who didn't vote Republican in Florida...for those who did, I feel nothing!

For the children of DeSantis supporters, I feel sorry...for the children of Republican supporters, I feel sorry!

4. Why is DeSantis actively trying to spread this deadly and or crippling disease?

This is very Machiavellian.

[machoneman]

7. Weird as he's reading his own press releases. Bet $ his own staff told him this is a loser as a....

...strategy. Many R's I'm sure are also horrified by this move that makes little sense, except the in little dictator's mind.

[RKP5637]

8. Exactly, in a dictator's mind. He's likely testing how far he can carry fascism and his dictatorship

[Botany]

17. DeSantis and Abbott are highly educated and they know vaccines, masks, and medical science works ...

.... but for some really sick reason they are trying to stop the use of those things and there by spreading the disease.

5. Cancel culture at work.

6. This guy is really a sociopathic lunatic. WTF is wrong with those in Florida that vote

for a damn fool crazy like him. Somehow, it appears, he thinks this will help him win the 2024 election for president.

[rubbersole]

12. Oh, it will help him.

With the magats. Once he tries to get national support this crazy shit will haunt him. Any new pandemic surge will spread through Florida with tragic consequences. Desantis had warehouses full of covid mitigation supplies going unused and it didn't cost him politically. He is a murdering sociopath.

9. years ago i did a vaca at disney with the family and i thought florida was really neat

Even did some web searches about where in the state would be a good place to move to.
Had family down there in the military so that it would not be totally with out support.

Alas my parents were old and as an only child i had to stick around

Thank god i outgrew that.

I am starting to cheer for the hurricanes

[jimfields33]

19. The 43 percent who voted for Crist do not appreciate your last sentence one bit.

[OAITW r.2.0]

10. Why stop there? Why not simply ban the virus?

Criminalize it's existence in Florida.

[LakeArenal]

14. If Texas can stop all rapes, I'm guessing Florida can ban the virus.

[rubbersole]

16. Shhh...

Don't give desantis any ideas.

[doc03]

13. A few months ago he was out telling people to get vaccinated, don't these idiots know there is video

evidence? Anyway I haven't been to Florida for three years and won't be spending my Democrat money in that shit hole state
anytime soon.

[Blues Heron]

15. still bitter about having to mask up and get a shot for the good of the populace

Definitely has a 15th Century vibe to it, ignorant (although he went to the Ivy league) and railing against science

[Bengus81]

21. And...if President it would be Nation wide

This is just the first step for this Trump X 1000 POS.
