We are all allowed to be triggered by whatever.
But an elected official just shouldn’t be admonishing high school kids in public if you are triggered.
There is a higher standard, and a standard when addressing school age teenagers.
Desantis just doesn’t believe he needs to be held to that standard. Clearly others agree.
Exactly. He's the older adult in the room. He should have just not said anything and gotten on with his business.
leftists: OMG! it's so rude for a Gov to tell people not to wear masks
also, leftists: it's cool for Gov to make vax/mask mandates otherwise people can't work, go to school, or buy a sandwich from Ralph's
I'm not a leftist. Stop making ridiculous assumptions that everyone who votes like you agrees with you on all points or that everyone who disagrees with you must have voted differently than you.
DeSantis would be best served by learning to periodically shut his pie hole. He has done some good things in FL, but like all narcissists he has a problem learning when to shut it.
Not an assumption if you live in Florida and watch him get upset at nearly every press conference over something. The dude gets triggered easily, I don't know why and don't claim to.
As I stated before no one has to believe any of us that live in Florida and keep warning people outside of Florida that this guy might flame out during the Republican primary due to his inability to control himself.
This is not based on his job as Governor, Floridians on this thread have stated they think he has done well but, we are just pointing out his major flaw which is how he carries and conducts himself when he is in front of a camera and sees or hears something that sets him off. He always goes straight from 0 to 11 every time.
Trump and most other recent previous Presidents could make a joke, a funny comment, perhaps a one liner, DeSantis has yet to show this skill.
Yes, he was clearly having a hissy fit and lost control of himself and what came out of his mouth. The kids spoiled his photo op with their masks.
The alternative is that he intentionally used/shamed those kids to score political points.

Your translation is meaningless.
Wild hunch, you think COVID is scary and believe masks work and the vaccines were medical marvels.
Yes, I imagine his being triggered by some kids wearing a mask is extremely excruciating for him. And it does appear that he was certainly over the edge with his response.
over the edge = makes a calm suggestion
Yes, life is excruciating for some people. What happens when the mail is 4 minutes late? Do people have a PSYCHOLOGICAL BREAK?
I really don't know how some people survive. I really don't.
Hang nail = IT'S CANCER!!!! I'M GOING TO DIE!!!! CALL 9-1-1!!!!
Oh God, now we have to hear 100 stories about people being 14 in Vietnam in the Shnit battling the commies to justify why these 14 year olds should have to deal with 43 y/o having a hissy fit.

Good thing they don’t vote. No wonder he didn’t care.
