He ranked 2 bad performances


Noem was #1 initially because she never shut down or mandated anything. DeSantis has to be #2 as he quickly ditched the COVID scam but then he became #1 after the fact because he was the only governor actively fighting against the CDC, NIH, etc.

Not sure where you consider his performance on COVID as bad. Maybe it's because Trump told him not to open Florida and he did it anyway?

I’m going to run a 4.3 to the polls to vote for Ron if he’s the nominee but this is a stretch.

Cmon dude. That reads very backhanded. Ron had more deaths than a shite state like NY. Definitely an insult to Ron, but there’s no praise for Cuomo there.
What in the world is happening here?

Has 808 lost his mind?

Well tell me if I’ve got it right..

Someone makes a thread about Trump responding to some publication saying he praised Cuomo.

Trump said that he did NOT praise Cuomo.

You bust in and say he did.


We all read what you used as proof that Trump did in fact praise Cuomo.

And now we’re wondering why the hell you’d post something so clearly dumb.

The context is that Florida had the 3rd most covid deaths and that was worse than New York. It says that right in the post he made.

Is there any truth to Florida having the 3rd most covid deaths?

He said Cuomo did better than DeSantis. If you want to parse that out, you can. This is just classic trump trying to argue his way out of his own idiocy.

You are free to assist him.

It also clearly implies DeSantis did a bad job at managing his state vis a vis Covid. Do you agree with that implication?

I agree with that.

That’s not praising Cuomo though. If I tell my son that he’s dumber than a rock, I’m not praising rocks.

As wrong as it is, you have to be a fricking retard to think it’s praise for Cuomo.

The hell am I missing here?


If his claim is that DeSantis messed up, he has to make that case based on what happened in FL, against some sort of standard - a textbook, established procedures, reading of the facts and some logic, etc. The standard he used was NY and Cuomo, which was/were awful and murdered people. When you use something as a standard, by default you are propping it up, elevating it, saying it is something others should strive to emulate yada yada yada.

Trump knows this and he's trying to weasel out of his comments, just like his tap dancing with the vaccine.

He can't stop from stepping on his crank.

I said this months ago - all this covid stuff was going to be like an albatross around his neck. His ego refuses to allow him to make a mea culpa and move on.

You can't run an 18 month campaign by constantly "clarifying" your remarks or issuing qualifiers after the fact. He's just burning down his own campaign, just like he sabotaged his own presidency.

Under Ron DeSanctimonious as Governor, Florida was the third WORST State in Deaths by Covid. So why do they say that DeSanctus did a good job? New York had fewer deaths! Also, he
shut down the State, and even its beaches (unlike other
Republican Governors).

Right. And where your analogy breaks down is that the Republican response to Covid should have been focused on liberty and freedom first. And Trump was attacking someone who actually tried to do that. Certainly better than Cuomo did. And instead of focusing on actual ideas, Trump is just shitting on a political opponent using any means necessary.

If you still want to parse that and say “but he didn’t really say Cuomo was great,” then sure. You win that point.

It’s a larger loss of an argument.

I could give two shits what anyone on this board thinks. And even less about what any person shilling for Trump on this topic thinks.

Dude, that’s all anyone here is saying. He’s literally responding to media narratives misquoting him.
