Ron DeSantis on Wednesday said if elected president, he would not pay for further coronavirus vaccines for Americans.

Certainly, were not going to fund them, the Florida Republican governor said during a wide-ranging interview with ABC News recorded Wednesday from Midland, Texas, where he announced his domestic energy policy.

The comment comes as DeSantis has ramped up his attacks in recent weeks on former President Donald Trump, the front-runner for the GOP presidential nomination, over his administrations response to the Covid-19 pandemic. As a presidential candidate, DeSantis has regularly warned that mandates and restrictions would return, if the government is given the opportunity.

The implication is they would not hesitate to do it again. Well, when Im president, were not going to let that happen. Were going to hold people accountable and were going to ensure that in the United States, youre never infringed upon by some health bureaucrat trying to take away your freedom, DeSantis said in Spencer, Iowa, in late August.

Can anyone translate this buzzword salad for me? When did the federal government mandate vaccines?

This man can never be president. I believe he would be even worse than Trump. And I don't think America would survive even 4 years with him

I thought he spent pandemic funds to human traffic refugees and asylum seekers?

Why is Desantis still acting like he's not 40 points behind in the primary against a fucking TV show con artist who committed high crimes against this country? The Cult will vote for its leader even if he's in prison. Fuck off back to the shit hole you created Ron.

He has to be thinking Trump's cult will rally behind him after Trump is convicted and/or drops dead. He grossly underestimates their spitefulness.

He tried to mandate it for federal employees and international travelers, not for private sector citizens.

I wonder if he's doing all this just to get his name out there for 2028. Trump won't be around forever, and Desantis is saying what Trump's followers want to hear.

I feel like if Democrats push mask mandates, that's going to piss off a lot of the country and lose them important votes next year.

I don't think so. We had so many people come out saying they were wrong and regretful for denying and not taking precautions against covid. Over a million dead. That's a lot of families with fresh memories.

He stops being Florida governor, doesn't he, because he's term-limited? If there's a gap of him in the news because he can't be a fascist somewhere, people are going to forget him in 4 years.

Or they're going to remember him worse than Scott Walker.

The state legislature has rubber-stamped his ever desire, so I'd be surprised if they don't do get rid of term limits too.
