“The key to Florida’s success has been protecting the most vulnerable, i.e. seniors and residents of long-term care facilities,” a DeSantis spokeswoman told the Tampa Bay Times last week.

The Republican governor himself has been fundraising — whether for a reelection campaign in 2022 or a presidential run in 2024 isn't clear — off his resistance to imposing lockdowns and mask regulations on Floridians.

I refused to blindly follow Dr. Fauci...and allow him to strip Floridians of their Gawd-given freedumbs.
