Death by DeSantis!

[Concart]

Oh my an oped read by shit eating dick suckers.

Your partisan stupidity knows no bounds. I will be happy to make a donation to Trump's campaign in your name.

OMFG you fucking moron, that is not an oped, it's MY POST. And I provided a link to the numbers. Wow you are even more fucking stupid than I thought.

Desantis is ambitious. He wants to be president.. He thinks he can transfer trump votes directly to him. He is trying to out trump Trump. He does not care if the Trump virus takes Floridians' lives.

Unfortunately for him, the virus doesn't care about his political ambitions. I cannot emphasize how dangerous this state is right now. Even for the vaccinated. At the rate we are going, most of the state will be infected over the next two to three months. And since DeSantis is too stubborn to take any mitigation efforts, there is nothing that can stop this from happening now. It is inevitable. And it will end DeSantis's career.

I firmly believe that DeSantis' poor reaction to COVID will kill enough voters in his state to make the difference next November.

Poll shows DeSantis on solid ground as Democrats try to find openings

TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Ron DeSantis remains on solid ground as he heads into his reelection campaign as Democrats ramp up their efforts to challenge him, a fresh new round of polling in Florida shows.

Three polls all have DeSantis with favorable job approval ratings more than a year and a half ahead of Election Day and highlight the difficulty that Democrats will have with the incumbent, who is raking in millions for his reelection effort.

Still, at least one poll paid by Democratic state Sen. Annette Taddeo’s political committee, shared exclusively with POLITICO, shows that Democrats may have some openings to go after the incumbent. Taddeo’s poll, conducted by SEA Polling & Strategic Design, suggests not all Floridians support the governor’s move to ban so-called “vaccine passports” or crack down on mail-in balloting and drop boxes.

The poll, done for Taddeo as she considers whether to mount her own statewide bid, showed DeSantis with a job approval rating of 53 percent, compared to 55 percent in a newly-released poll on behalf of the Florida Chamber of Commerce. The governor had a 60 percent job approval rating in a survey done by well-known Republican pollster Ryan Tyson for the Florida Restaurant and Lodging Association.

The Chamber poll also showed DeSantis with double-digit leads in head-to-head matchups with U.S. Reps.*Val Demings*and*Charlie Crist*as well as Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried. Crist has already jumped into the race, with both Fried and Demings expected to follow. Fried put out a video on Wednesday teasing a June 1 official announcement.

The three polls were done between mid-April and the first week of May and ranged in size from about 600 people surveyed to a 1,000 people.

DeSantis has attracted national attention as a potential 2024 presidential contender because of his aggressive push to reopen the state following the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as his move to crack down on violent protesters with an "anti-riot" bill. DeSantis, whose own bid for governor was boosted by an endorsement from former President Donald Trump, governed initially as a moderate after his narrowly win in 2018. But since the pandemic, he routinely clashed with the media and ignored criticisms by Democrats.

The poll commissioned by Taddeo highlighted several possible fault lines between DeSantis and voters. It found that those surveyed opposed voting restrictions by a 56 percent to 37 percent margin. DeSantis recently signed the state’s controversial voting measure into law and touted it on Fox. That same poll found that 49 percent backed businesses being able to require proof of vaccinations, compared to 40 percent who did not.

Taddeo, a Miami Democrat who ran as Charlie Crist’s running mate in the 2014 governor’s race, said her polling “shows some clear opportunities we have as Democrats and some weaknesses we must tackle. Governor DeSantis is on the wrong side of critical issues, especially business mandates on public health measures and his continued efforts to make it harder to vote by mail.”

Democrats have tried to push back on Republicans by asserting that DeSantis — who this past legislative session pushed through bills aimed at Silicon Valley and racial justice protesters — is anti-Democratic. Fried’s newest video included a clip where she called him an “authoritarian dictator.”

But Tyson, who constantly tracks Florida’s voters, contends that Democrats — who lost across the board in races in Florida in 2020 — are misreading the electorate in the state.

“When you listen to Democratic candidates today you hear them speak of things that are so out of touch with the typical Florida voter,” Tyson said. “The governor is advocating center-right policies in a center right state. No one should be shocked by that.”

Tyson completed another poll on Monday that had a different reading on DeSantis’s push to ban “vaccine passports.” His survey found that 55 percent opposed allowing businesses and government to require someone to show proof of a Covid-19 vaccine.

Pointing to Fried’s video where she called DeSantis an “authoritarian,” Tyson argued that Democrats remain “disconnected.”

“They seem blinded by their hatred of the governor,” Tyson said.

OK, still outdated (from May), but 53% approval is lower than Biden's.

Only because of one poll from Rasmussen that doesn't reflect any other poll.

That is an average of several polls Einstein.

[Jarod]

Death Santis is killing Floridians right and left, problem is, it’s his voters.

[Walt]

He calls himself grumpy. You think he is here to reason?

It is just sad that Republicans will kill hundreds of thousands of Americans opposing the vaccine.

[Walt]

This is a conspiracy theory.

You think vaccines are a "conspiracy theory"??? Then again, you also think viral pneumonia is a "conspiracy theory", so I guess it is parr for the course.

[Into the Night]

I will try to dumb it down for you. There is this thing called a vaccine. It reduces the chances of you dying from Covid-19 by 99%. Crazy Republican politicians oppose it, because they like gaining power by making up conspiracy theories.

You think vaccines are a "conspiracy theory"??? Then again, you also think viral pneumonia is a "conspiracy theory", so I guess it is parr for the course.

No, your conspiracy theory is a conspiracy theory.
There is no such thing as 'viral pneumonia'. Pneumonia is an opportunistic bacterialogical infection. It can be treated with antibiotics if you catch it early enough.
Covid19 can induce pneumonia.

That is an average of several polls Einstein.

News polls don't mean anything. Averaging them doesn't mean anything either.
