The NY Times’ epic fail in trying to tarnish DeSantis’ COVID record

By NY Post Editorial Board   
July 24, 2023

The New York Times is desperate to tarnish Gov. Ron DeSantis’ impressive COVID record, but a monster “report” it ran this weekend meant to do that accidentally wound up highlighting his success instead.

The paper dispatched three separate reporters to spend “weeks,” it said, poring over COVID data for the more than 4,000-word opus.

Clearly, it sees the gov as a looming threat to Democrats’ chances of holding the White House.

(The paper would like nothing more than for President Donald Trump to win the GOP nomination, to give Biden the best shot at keeping his job.)

Yet strip out the piece’s lame anti-DeSantis snipes and you’re left with a stunning fact: Overall, [Florida’s] death rate during the pandemic, adjusted for age, ended up better than the national average, the Times itself admits.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

@Kamaji

Of course they would. After all,doesn't Trump already pull in all the votes for over 60 percent of the registered voters?

Anti-Trump "logic" seems to have a lot in common with  Dim "logic".
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!
