NBC Attacked FL Governor DeSantis Over His Covid Vaccine Plan

NBC attacked Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, accusing him of prioritizing seniors for the Covid vaccine because of their votes. No this is not satire. NBC actually published a hit piece against DeSantis because he’s prioritized Seniors, Holocaust survivors, and Veterans for the vaccine, claiming that he did it for the votes.

NBC’s big problem is that they are ludicrous thugs. They enlisted Democrat Rep Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and Charlotte County Democratic Party Chair Teresa Jenkins to accuse him… of doing what he’s supposed to do.

Republican strategist Matt Whitlock responded to the piece with this:

This NBC article bizarrely attacks DeSantis for prioritizing the following people: Holocaust survivors, Bay of Pigs survivors, Seniors — the group most vulnerable to the Coronavirus, a 94-year-old Korean War veteran named Vern Cummings…”Most potent voting blocs” ..but also the most vulnerable to COVID. What an absurd, botched hit piece.

Matt Whitlock, Republican strategist

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

Florida has a huge Republican voting bloc that happens to be primarily older Americans. Criticizing the Republican Governor for prioritizing the must vulnerable residents of his state is ridiculous, and shows that they must be terrified of him running for some other office in 2024. He’s done a great job- they don’t like it.

Actual headline: Governor DeSantis followed the science and vaccinated seniors FIRST. This is disgraceful

@AccuracyInMedia

LOL. Tweet through the hate. You’re literally criticizing him for vaccinating seniors first, who are far and away the most vulnerable, as opposed to the Cuomo model of killing them and covering it up.

@davidebiddle

Buried 12 paragraphs deep, we learn the “accuser” is Debbie Wasserman Schultz ranting like a lunatic. As usual.

@Shooter_ptpx01

They’re mad he’s vaccinating FL’s seniors who tend to vote Republican.

@johncardillo

Ron DeSantis Stands Accused!… Of planning ahead to vaccinate the elderly.

@thejcoop

The media is going to spend the next 3 years relentlessly attacking Governor Ron DeSantis. Why? Because the left is TERRIFIED of running against him.

@ACTBrigitte

An actual line from this hit job: “Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican, ignored federal guidelines and prioritized getting senior citizens — one of Florida’s most potent voting blocs — vaccinated first.” Which states haven’t prioritized seniors? Those Governors deserve the scorn.

What a shoddy smear job this is. Wowsers.

There were many others:

And that is the kicker here: NBC attacked Governor DeSantis with viciousness for doing what is logical and correct, while honoring Cuomo, a raging tyrant. The left is nothing more than ludicrous thugs.
