Ron DeSantis Vs. Vaccinations
Will DeSantis’ war on vaccines have consequences? Of course. Many thousands of people will die needlessly, and countless others will become horrifically ill, and will never fully recover.
But think of the upside. Consider how all this will inspire the voters in a state with a population of 22 million, many of whom have profound distrust, if not a seething hatred of science.
Earlier in the pandemic, DeSantis was a huge advocate of vaccinations, declaring that those who were inoculated had a far better chance of getting through the pandemic with their health fully intact, and were doing their fellow citizens a huge favor by not becoming carriers and clogging up hospitals. That, however, was before he realized how much political mileage he could gain, simply by making make an abrupt U-turn and sending people to their graves.
If you think this country is out of the woods because Trump is going away, keep in mind that this bastard is the leading candidate to win the 2024 presidency.
It seems a common political tactic; politicians can quickly change their minds depending on the given situation and what they really aim to gain each time which is often bad for the public.
Yes, sadly it is quite common.
