Florida Governor Ron DeSantis continues to show why Democrats fear him.
Governor DeSantis knows how to fight back.
And Ron DeSantis dropped the hammer on Democrats with just one word.
The corporate media and Democrats lost their collective mind over a video of Ron DeSantis telling a bunch of high school students at an event to take off their masks because it was time to be done with COVID theater.
“I mean, please take them off,” DeSantis told the kids. “Honestly, it’s not doing anything. And we gotta stop with this Covid theater. So, if you want to wear it, fine. But this is, this is ridiculous.”
Despite the media and Democrats seeing polls saying their attachment to COVID fear porn is killing them politically, liberals in the press and their stated desire to “follow the science” in elected office could not shake their attachment to the superstition surrounding masks.
Nikki Fried and Charlie Crist – the two Democrats running for the right to take on DeSantis in November – slammed DeSantis as a bully.
The corporate media hunted down their students and their parents in the hopes they would criticize DeSantis.
DeSantis struck back on Tucker Carlson’s show.
Governor DeSantis mocked his critics by pointing out that none of the adults in the room where the event was held were wearing masks and the only ones wearing masks were high school kids at little risk to a bad COVID outcome.
DeSantis said he spoke up because he was tired of adults in elected office and the public health establishment lying for two years about the effectiveness of cloth masks and the necessity of school closures.
“Tucker, none of the adults were wearing masks and seemed to me that someone told those kids they had to do it. So I just wanted to make it very clear they do not need to be doing it. Obviously, in Florida, it is a free state. You can do it. But I think it’s also important to point out that there is no reason to do it for young and healthy kids, especially in the State of Florida, we never had a mass mandate, of course, but our guidance from our Health Department is not to wear these cloth masks. And I think it needs to be said because people have been lied to for two years. And so I was — I didn’t want it to be thinking that like they were told to do this by me because I certainly wouldn’t do that,” DeSantis stated.
DeSantis told Carlson that the real bullying was Democrats and the Dr. Faucis of the world that harmed children through abusive – and unnecessary – mask mandates and school closures.
“And you know, they talk about oh, by letting someone have a choice to take off their mask and welcoming that choice, that that’s somehow bullying,” DeSantis continued. “Tucker, bullying is locking kids out of school, which they did. Bullying is forcing kids to wear masks for eight hours a day, which they did for two years, and are only stopping now because the polling has changed. Bullying is kicking people out of work because of vaccine mandates. We fought all of those policies in Florida. We lifted people up, and we liberated them from local school boards and governments that imposed them.”
The cherry on top of this story was one of the parents later complained that DeSantis told her son to take his mask off because it was theater.
While this parent ranted to the press about DeSantis she was not wearing a mask.
DeSantis is a top 2024 GOP presidential contender because he won’t accept the premises of the corporate media and Democrats’ smear campaign.
Instead of apologizing like a RINO like Mitt Romney or Adam Kinzinger would do, DeSantis fights back.
