Governor who refused to ban spring breakers says he didn't know kids could get virus

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis falsely claimed Thursday that no Americans under 25 have died from COVID-19.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is under fire this week for making a false claim that the coronavirus does not affect young people.
It's the latest blowback for DeSantis, who has been roundly criticized for his refusal to close the state's beaches, even as spring breakers flocked there amid a growing outbreak.
"This particular pandemic is one where I don't think nationwide there's been a single fatality under 25. For whatever reason it just doesnt seem to threaten, you know, kids," he told a group of educators on Thursday.
He added, "This one, for whatever reason, much more dangerous if you're 65 and [older] than the flu, no doubt about that. If you're younger it just hasn't had an impact. So that should factor into how we're viewing this."

(82,849 posts)Between this knucklehead, who "didn't know" that people under 25 could be infected, and dummy McDumbass in Georgia, who didn't know you could be infectious before showing symptoms, you have to wonder what the fuck people expect from their governor? What the hell are these guys doing all day long that they're so lethally ignorant?

The word "Republican" will be a pejorative thoroughly nasty insult until the day I die. I look forward to the day people take as much offense to being called Republican as they do to certain unspeakable words in our language today.
