The governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, is at the top of every Democrat’s list of public enemies, and this is true for everyone who works at CNN. Jim AcostaAfter Trump was relegated to the host of the weekend after becoming president, a photo of him was taken today. In doing so, he managed to set a new standard for cringiness.
In a scene reminiscent of the classic “Sein Fei Zheng Chuan” episode, George responded to a colleague and told him “The bastard shop is calling and they are almost out of you”, and Acosta gave up his weapon The worst burn in the library-called the COVID variant “DeSantis variant.”
Die in suggestion @阿科斯塔 Name the Delta variant #DeSantisVariant And Republican governors promoted all future variants after Covid-19 by banning the wearing of masks. https://t.co/1NEH6kv5ta

“Maybe it’s time to start naming these new variants that may appear after them,” Acosta said, referring to Republican politicians. “Instead of a delta variant, why not call it a DeSantis variant?”
He added: “We can sell beer that says’Don’t treat Florida as my Fauci’ and use the money to pay for all funeral expenses in the next few days.”
There is even a label to celebrate Acosta’s absolute wisdom here.This A dozen people It’s exciting to watch his show. When it comes to watching his show, if you want to watch the actual video, you can go CNN website And see it. Yes, they are actually proud of this moment and can promote it further. But really, does this sound like what you want to do?
Anyway, since we are trying to analyze in RedState, I will try my best to take this idiot seriously long enough to provide some.
Florida currently ranks 25th in COVID deaths per capita. If Acosta’s view is that some governors preside over a large number of deaths, maybe he should start with criticism Andrew Cuomo, Phil Murphy, Charlie Baker, or any other governor who is objectively worse. Or is it the argument that none of those people have played politics? Because it would be ridiculous.
In addition, the idea of playing politics in order to maintain personal freedom is probably one of the most anti-American things I have heard from a so-called reporter. DeSantis has done an excellent job of balancing effective mitigation (that is, distributing vaccines to the most vulnerable groups) with the protection of the rights of the people of the state. This will not cease to be a related issue because the government says there is an emergency.
But like many ring road residents, Acosta is convinced that any blow to individual rights will not affect his personal life. Therefore, he is happy to show it on national television and persuade the governors to act like dictators. At the end of the day, he still holds chubby checks and cocktail parties. Of course, assuming that Acosta is invited to the party may be too much.
However, the first thing that is really missing here is any basis for Acosta’s hysteria. Florida is a state with a population of more than 21 million people.At the moment, they are average There are 88 deaths from COVID every day, which seems to be the peak of its Delta wave. This is a far cry from anything seen during the Alpha Wave. Given that zero COVID is not a realistic goal, the question is: can the waves be controlled with treatment and vaccines? So far, the answer seems to be yes.
I also suspect that just like the peak in Florida last summer, there will also be autumn/winter peaks in other parts of the country. In other words, Acosta promoted the development of partisan football prematurely here. COVID is obviously a cyclical disease, which spreads in different parts of the world at different times of the year.
In addition, Acosta is just not very good at his job. There is nothing clever about how he conducts partisan attacks. Where is the creativity? Swearing and telling jokes in the live broadcast will make 8-year-old children blush and cannot fully portray the image of top talent. Is this the best thing CNN can do?
I don’t know, but what I do know is that it’s worth watching DeSantis headshot in 2024.
