The Obama’s are not planning a run for anything that would require a need to impress voters, last I checked. DeSantis is closer to Ted Cruz skipping off to Cancun during a blizzard in Texas instead of calling citizens to check on them and helping coordinate relief efforts like Beto and AOC did in his absence.

Yes, he definitely should have shirked his duties running the third largest state in the country during a catastrophic national disaster to fill sand bags.

So according to the Democrat rule book, you should only care about people when there is disaster for photo ops and get votes. That train is never late. Was Crist there or he didn't want to get his hair wet? Is Demings there serving food or passing out rain coats?


Everybody in government has a job including the governor. If would be stupid and irresponsible for the governor to ignore his duties to fill sand bags for photo ops. Like they do in the military, everybody has a job and the job of the governor is not photo ops.

He never demands that from Democrats in office. He is demanding DeSantis to ignore his duties in running the state to fill sand bags for photo ops. The Democrat way.


Florida has millions of people for that and there is ONLY 1 job as governor with 24/7 responsibilities. Asking a governor to skip that to fill sand bags for photo ops is irresponsible. It's like asking Special Forces in the military to clean the mess hall for photo ops while ignoring their priorities. He never heard of the chain of command and what is each person's duty.

I distinctly remember Reagan filling sand bags and Chris Christie staying in FL on vacation while there was a blizzard emergency in NJ.

There are pictures of Bernie riding on a snowplow in Burlington to make sure all of the streets were plowed and not just the ones in front of the homes of the rich, too. DeSantis and Cruz don't have time to demonstrate to the voters that they feel the pain and empathize. That feeling of camaraderie goes a long way at the polls, and it would have cost him less time than sending planeloads of immigrants to Martha's vineyard at a cost of $12 million.

That's $12 million, as in a quarter of a million dollars per immigrant moved. He could have set them all up in business cheaper.

Bingo…but DeSantis is another because Trump for them and will be obsessing over his every move, and crying when he doesn’t do what they want him to, lol.

Proof to moving 50 illegals to Martha’s Vineyard costing $12M?
