Don't Fauci My Florida - The Politicization of Covid-19

[Luckyone]

It is bad enough what the pandemic has brought to our country (654,689 deaths as of this morning) but the worse part of it has been the politicization that has been used to further divide this country into left and right instead of into live or die.

Ron DeSantis has been prime example of a leader that has used the difference in culture that exists within us to further his own political career at the expense of the lives of all of us, including our children. Unfortunately, this is not the malady of one person (DeSantis) but the malady of the Republican Party. It is the Republican Party that has divided our country on the use (or non use) of masks and vaccinations as a means to advance their political agenda. Into winning being more important than living. Into all of us being chess pieces that are disposable in winning the game.

The video below explains this in much better detail than I can. It shows just how little the Republicans care about our lives and how much they care about promoting their political agenda.

You think this was bad- wait until the full consequences of climate change denial really begin to hit.

We may never be able to recover from the havoc, chaos, and destruction that Trump and his flying monkeys have wrought on America in their short sighted greed and hunger for power. It’s like someone let the animals out at the zoo.

The Republican malady is a disease on democracy that foreign leaders whom wish to crush Western/Liberal/American democracy, like Putin, love to see spread by Trump and his followers. And it's working.

Florida does not publish new death counts, so subtracting the prior day/week total deaths from the following day/week total is the only way to get that info, that I know of.
