Mayor Demings Scolds Ron DeSantis: Take Care of Florida, Not Just Family

Simon Kent 5 Jan 2022

Mayor of Orange County, Jerry Demings (D), turned on Florida’s Republican governor Ron DeSantis on Tuesday, chiding him for being with his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment rather than tending to the needs of his broader constituents at the same time.

Demings said he’d been dealing with the hospitalization of his elderly father and the deaths of family members over the holiday season but had still been able to make public appearances to address coronavirus challenges and long waits for tests, AP reports.

“Yes, there are times when our families may be ill and we have to take care of our families. However, I do believe that you can do both,” Demings said at a news conference. “You can take care of your family and take care of your extended family, the people.”

Last week, Demings criticized DeSantis for not making any public appearances in response to the surging omicron variant. DeSantis has countered by saying he is not being driven by fear in his approach.

Kamaji:
Why should the governor of a major state make public appearances because of the seasonal common cold?

Stupid mayor just unleashed a PR disaster on himself  Foregoing support for your cancer stricken wife versus  a presser response around a  disease that now has the lethality of seasonal flu is truly a sick joke.

Time for jiffy pop

Funny how only the rat political machine members are Engaged in faux outrage.  No one really sides with their bullshit.  Well except the dung beetles that live in the shit they lay down.  God bless my governor.  Take care of your family.  Us county boys will survive.

Your besmirching of dung beetles is quite a stretch. Gunny Hartman better describes him as nothing but unorganized grab-asstic pieces of amphibian shit!
