A tragedy this big has to be borne by all, but DeSatan's voters will still curse the government that makes it possible, and pretend all anyone needs is self-reliance.

(4,298 posts)6. I'm ok with Biden getting out there and promising all the aid to FL BUT he needs to also
tell the amount of the aid the Feds have already given and promised to DeSantis. Give the numbers so the people know.
Also, it is really important to now go back and examine what DeSantis did with all the COVID aid the Feds gave to FL. Not just FL but all those states that diverted aid meant to keep businesses open and employees working that didn't use the money for those purposes.
