DeSantis again skips meeting with Biden after hurricane hits state

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

MIAMI — President Joe Biden touched down on Thursday in Florida’s state capital, less than a week after Tallahassee narrowly avoided a direct hit from Hurricane Helene that ravaged nearby coastal counties.

And Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was 300 miles away.

As Biden was deboarding Air Force One in Tallahassee, DeSantis was holding a press conference at hurricane-devastated Anna Maria Island near Bradenton, which is on Florida’s Gulf Coast just outside Tampa.

Since recovery efforts began, DeSantis has sought to separate Florida’s response from the federal government, saying the state was able to move much faster. And early into his remarks on Thursday, DeSantis brought up the dockworkers strike that’s affecting ports in several states, including Florida, by listing off crucial supplies that would see disruptions — from medical equipment to vehicle parts, lumber and steel. He urged the Biden administration to “stand up for the storm victims” after ticking off actions Florida was taking.

He was busy licking the pudding off his fingers.

1. Florida's chicken-crap governor. nt

[polichick]

2. Probably doesn't have boot lifts high enough for that outing.

[Dennis Donovan]

3. That's the duty of the Governor - to meet POTUS after a natural disaster.

God, how much longer does FL have to put up with his bullshit?

[Deuxcents]

11. Two more years of him. Thank god he's term limited

[BeyondGeography]

4. The incredible shrinking Ron DeSantis

And to think he started out this year as maybe the next big thing. Or was it last year or the year before?

[Keepthesoulalive]

5. He again proved

He is a small man and it’s not just his height.

[badhair77]

6. He doesn't work for the people.

He’s too focused on molding some ridiculous political character that appeals to trumpers, and looking to future campaigns.

[central scrutinizer]

7. You can run

But you can’t hide. Grandstanding sure isn’t helping.

8. Gosh, I really wish he was up for reelection now too! He definitely needs to be removed and he would have been for many

reasons, but his trying to sneak through the golf courses and resorts on state parks tops the list!

9. I guess those go go boots he has helped him flee reality.

[Hassler]

10. Maybe Ron Duh couldn't find his white gogo boots?

12. We have to CLEAN HOUSE

This type of SCUM needs to be removed from all government agencies. Every last one of them. We will have 4 years (hope complete control of all 3 houses)

13. Disrespectful little weirdo.
