Today as he opened up all stadiums to full capacity in Florida, I can’t help but respect how resolute he’s been through this. He took some HUGE gambles that would have ended his political career had they not worked out, but to his credit they did and he looks like a genius.

He’s positioned himself nicely if he ever gets a mind to run for President.

Especially in a state full of high risk people. That’s leadership.

They weren’t gambles they were slam dunks if you follow the data and the science.

He didn’t monkey it up like the gay meth head would have done.

He listened to the actual science. Good for him.

Who knew not putting infected people in nursing homes and otherwise letting people make their own decisions about level of risk would work?

He’s /our guy/ in 24.

Still very sad about Matt Gaetz’s personal life - I wanted to believe.

I had a discussion on him with the woman who cuts my hair who is a huge liberal. I asked her who did the better job with Covid, Desantis or Coumo?

She of course thought Coumo was a total rock start that did an amazing job and that Desantis was the biggest idiot of all time and should be sent to a firing squad.

I then went through all of the numbers with her painstakingly. The actual data and numbers.

Her position was still well he's just anti-science. You can't help these people.

He is amazing. People were trashing him hard in the beginning but he stuck to his guns

As an infectious disease physician, I can confidently say some of his decisions were very risky at the time they were made. Not bad decisions, but certainly ones that could have gone the other way.

But again to his credit, he’s been very consistent in his beliefs and his message and stuck with it.

Hopefully the flow from NY has gone down so the florida citizens can get to some normal.

Only if one had moved on from "flatten the curve" to attempt to prevent ALL PEOPLE from getting the virus regardless of the cost. Flattening the curve, perhaps a strategy worth pursuing. The latter, nonsense that has created dictators out of governors and mayors.
