DeSantis supporters continue to be 15 steps ahead of the Trump cucks. They’re playing t-ball while we’re already in the show.

Yet you and your ilk put Trump on blast for “doing the same thing”

As it should be. But here's the difference - the CDC and Fauci didn't work for DeSantis. They worked for Trump, and that's how Trump is uniquely accountable for all things Covid. Anything you want to criticize DeSantis for, which I don't have a problem with - but understand that every single mistake/overreach DeSantis made was him responding to the guidance of Trump, and the dishonest/fake "emergency" circumstances created by Trump's administration.

The point is States were given leeway to run how they chose. Hutchinson did same shite in Arkansas. Failed to let people live their own lives.

Given what we know now the restrictions were BS.

You must have gotten overwhelmed while admiring your life size Trump wall poster and just dropped the ball.

So DeSantis didn’t have to listen to them. Got it.

Your deflection is shite.

MOST people (Trump AND DeSantis included), believed that Fauci was trying to actually solve the problem.

THEY thought that the restrictions were reasonable.

THEY were wrong, and they sure as frick weren’t the only two. As noted VERY few people questioned what was going on…even on here.

Who is shitposting about the other regarding Covid? Trump or Desantis. I don’t expect an answer because it’s not convenient for you.


Team DeSantis is making this part of his attack on Trump and Trump beat him to the punch.


Literally has been happening on social media by his hired influencers and MANY of the posts here are from them.

Good for you. I have no problem criticizing DeSantis for following the Trump administration's guidance, where/when he did. He deserves that criticism.

What deflection? That I hold Trump accountable for his administration - that's a deflection?

quote:

But Fauci didn't work for DeSantis or "most people" - he worked for Trump, and Trump should have known that Fauci/Team was the politically-driven actors they were. At a minimum, Trump should have had an executive's normal curiosity, something like - "hey, before we advise everybody to shut shite down and spend $5T, I want outside confirmation that the data/science you're feeding me isn't crap."

quote:

Only a retard would have thought it was reasonable to shut the country down for a virus that had not proven itself to be super duper scary, and in fact had a trail of evidence of not being super duper scary. Hell, I could make a strong argument that even if C-19 was all it was hyped up to be, shutting the country down was retarded.

But only Trump was responsible for the CDC and Fauci.

This is bullshite. There was a lot of discussion on this board about Covid/response in real time, and it wasn't just "very few" that did not unquestioningly accept everything fed them by Team Trump and CNN. And there was quite a few of us that actually saw through the bullshite immediately.

Not saying it didn't happen, but DeSantis bending the knee in June 2020 at the absolute height of Covid in a state disproportionately full of seniors is a wee bit more rational than Daddy awarding Milley, Brix, and Fauci with Presidential commendations in January 2021 after it was clear to everyone who was MAGA (except Trump himself, apparently) they they all helped steal the election from him.

That's not all you missed.
He didn't "choose" Fauci, he created a task force and appointed him to it, and on paper he was the most qualified, having been director of the NIAID since fuggin 1984. Pence was the chair of the task force, so that's whom Trump chose. Ben Carson and a dozen or so others were as well. I don't know who pushed Fauci to the front but, on paper, he was the most qualified. He's just dishonest.

Also, and many of you need to get this through your thick, misshapen skulls: TRUMP COULDN'T FIRE FAUCI.
Besides the political suicide of it and the Dems threatening to impeach him if he tried, Fauci couldn't be simply "fired." He has rights, and while you could probably eventually get them all removed and establish that he should be fired for cause, that would've taken YEARS.

You can like Ron, but liking Ron and being stupid at the same time does no one any good.

Not that many. I remember calling bullshite VERY early. There weren’t many of us…period.

This is my thread from August of 2020 concerning an Ivermectin cocktail…

Just tired of the hypocrites posting about Ron's "bad terrible reponse to covid" and then in the same breath calling Trumps "what else could he do" or "he had to do it" crap.

Fair enough but it goes both ways. I hear people bitching about Trump lockdowns when Trump never did but Ron did. They mock Trump's losing endorsements then reeee when Trump shows Ron made many losing endorsements as well, many times the same candidates.
If we can stick to the facts then we'll all be better off for it. It doesn't persuade anyone to accuse them of things they know aren't true.

There were plenty. And not just in August, but the early months (Mar-Apr). There were some good discussions on this board. Covid is what got me started posting on this site.

Why are you knocking him for posting what Ron did? Seems to be a theme when the news isn’t good for ol’ Ronald.

This back and forth is creating a big division and it’s not a good way to get ahead.

First, jjdoc is retarded so he's an easy target.

Moreover, a Trump sycophant posting about DeSantis the "Grim Reaper" on Covid is like a Biden criticizing Trump for open border policies 2017-2020.

Ron killed the third most number of people during Covid according to trump.


Now do deaths by country and hold trump to the same standard.


I’ll wait.
