The Republicans allow the weirdest voices in their party to be the loudest. Idiots, dictators, and conspiracy theorists are a minority in the Republican Party, but they control the national narrative designed to destroy our democracy and morality. Governor Ron De Santis was particularly deadly. His Harvard ancestry convinces ordinary voters that they can believe him because he graduated from a prestigious university. However, smart people with personality defects such as narcissism and anti-socialism can cause chaos and destruction. De Santis and Governor Greg Abbott fit the characteristics of this dysfunction.
Florida leads the country in COViD-19 cases and hospitalizations. Despite the alarming increase in the number of children infected with the Delta variant, De Santis signed an executive order making it illegal for school districts to implement mask regulations for teachers and students. His position has no scientific significance, but obviously he hopes it will unite MAGA voters to support his 2024 presidential campaign.In the recent Washington Post, DeSantis was quoted as saying
“We can have a free society or a biomedical safety state. I can tell you, Florida, we are a free state. “People will be free to make their own decisions about themselves, their families, the education of their children, and the food on the table.”
There are many errors in this statement, and Harvard is not proud of it. The requirement to wear a mask and the expectation of getting a deadly virus vaccine will not cause Florida or any state in the United States to lose its “free society” status. This statement is a transparent and political “BS”. We are a legal country and we are required to wear seat belts, wear clothes in restaurants, and educate our children. In his statement with many flaws, DeSantis did not recognize the Supreme Court’s past rulings.”Once a state of emergency is declared, state and local governments have the ability to issue orders to protect public health and have the right to restrict certain freedoms. “
In addition, the Supreme Court found in Jacobson v. Commonwealth of Massachusetts in 1905 that “the community has the right to protect itself from the epidemic of diseases that threaten the safety of its members.” DeSantis is a political animal, and he promotes Self-interest and disregard of public safety to choose the law. During the Delta Virus, the reckless policies he imposed on Florida residents would undoubtedly kill people in his state. Narcissists lack empathy. In order to protect themselves and their children, parents and the school desperately sued DeSantis.
Greg Abbott, another governor in a Trump clown car, sets policies in his state to put public health and safety behind its political agenda. He recently tried to block local vaccine and mask regulations in his state. The Texas MBA report stated that the governor “is redoubled efforts to ensure that COVID-19 vaccines and masks are still available in Texas.” Like DeSantis, Abbott has indicated that he will follow policies that he believes will satisfy Trump to determine the correct protection measures for Florida residents.
The Constitution and Supreme Court rulings allow mandatory regulations to protect the health and lives of Americans during a pandemic, which is considered a public health emergency. DeSantis and Abbott should consider joining brave Republicans, who are breaking their dependence on Trump and his power, choosing the health and the rule of law for the people, instead of being impeached twice, serving a term, and being highly investigated. The former president.
