HuffPost Ex-GOP Rep. Suggests Dangerous 'Wedge Issue' Between Donald Trump And Ron DeSantis [View all]

Former Rep. David Jolly (R-Fla.) suggested Friday that COVID-19 vaccines will become a worrying “wedge issue” between former President Donald Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) during their rumored respective runs for the White House in 2024.

“Is this a wedge issue now that Ron DeSantis wants between him and MAGA nation and between him and the former president?” Jolly asked MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace during a discussion about DeSantis’ nominee for Florida surgeon general, anti-mask, anti-lockdown and vaccine skeptic Dr. Joseph Ladapo.

Ladapo’s nomination is indicative of the “pandemic of lunacy that is infecting” today’s GOP, said Jolly, who left the party in 2018. “You simply have to deny the reality of COVID, you have to deny science, you have to deny the competence of our leading public health officials for political purposes,” he said.

“Does the Florida governor agree that Trump’s Operation Warp Speed was successful or not?” he asked. “Welcome to the big leagues, Ron DeSantis. Tell us.”
