    In this thread linked above members were quick to jump on a bandwagon of Democrats claiming Ron Desantis changed the data in Florida to change the number of covid deaths.

    It all comes from the same story and in that misleading story if you scroll down it says the data was only changed to show covid deaths when they occur and not when they were recorded. In fact both sets of data do still exist for those wanting the old data.

    The left thrives on fake news. Anything to make the people they don't like look bad. Ron Desantis has not done anything and this is just another smear campaign from the left.

    It's a lie. See my above post. Thanks for supporting fake news.

    The Washington Examiner confirms you all are wrong.

    Funny how two of you claim to do your research but don't know your supporting fake news.

    Yes and it's sad the left feels the need to smear people.

    It's even sadder several people supported the fake news. (See above)

    You were right and they still tried to tell you that you were wrong by claiming they did thier research.

    See my OP. The Washington Examiner confirms its a smear campaign against Ron Desantis.

    I'm not going to do a scavenger hunt. Post what link you want read.

    I don't live in Florida so I rely on @Golem, @apexofpurple and @Pro_Line_FL for firsthand knowledge of what is happening there. I believe anecdoctal information over "news", spin and Monday morning quarterbacking.

    I've lost count how many times people have said Al Capone is still alive and drug dealers and gangsters hang on every street corner in Chicago when I say "it's easy to remember my name because Michael Jordan played for the Bulls in Chicago and I'm from Chicago."

    I was born and raised there and hundreds of my family members still live there and none of us have seen that. So, if I know it's all hype about MY city, why in the world would I believe stereotypes about other cities? That doesn't make any kind of sense.

    Well, I’ve been right all along!

    As I clearly stated; There’s NO proof that both the CDC and Florida Health have over, or underreported their numbers FOR POLITICAL REASONS, and/or in an effort to discredit, or glorify DeSantis.

    Also, many Republicans don’t trust any Covid numbers, especially the conspiracy shitters.

    Last, as of 03 September, 2021, Florida Health reported a total of 46,234 Covid deaths, Florida RESIDENTS ONLY.

    Source; Florida Health Covid19 Weekly Situation Report, Page # 8.

    Among all States, Florida’s Covid Deaths Per 1M Pop now ranks 18th HIGHEST, and prior to its Delta Wave, 18th lowest.

    Last, the daily/weekly numbers Florida Health reports to the CDC are provisional/subject to change.

    Biden's administration started the statistical funny business as soon as he took office.
    I still remember Psucki getting in front of her microphone and announcing that they were changing the definition of a "COVID death" to distinguish between "dying from COVID" and "dying with COVID".

    THEN, they changed the recommended number of cycles for the COVID test to reduce the positive cases, since there were lots of false positives before.

    Honestly, nobody has a freaking clue how many people have died "from" COVID.

    Then, after several instances of the left wing media bunching several days of COVID deaths or cases into one day's count for Florida, DeSantis decided to put an end to the left's funny business there, too.

    If you look at the numbers

    Texas has been posting 15 K plus new cases daily with 270 new deaths daily

    however Florida has been posting 22 K plus new cases daily with single digit deaths daily

    No doubt the Republican led state is posting bad numbers

    Its not rocket science

    Yep, some really believable, fair and balanced journalism there by RW trash rag defending DeSantis:

    "The honest truth is that the liberal media just hate DeSantis. While journalists were screeching that we should “follow the science” and hide in our homes forever, DeSantis rejected their approach and reopened his state. The doomsday outcomes predicted never really materialized, leaving alarmist reporters and TV anchors with egg on their faces — and fueling a vendetta against DeSantis. (They may also view him as a real threat to the Biden-Harris administration’s 2024 reelection chances.)"

    With that kind of pandering to the Trump fanclub, I think I take my chances and believe the Miami Herald over the Washington Examiner.

    Yes, we DO know what happened in NY. Cuomo resigned or he would have been kicked out. In contrast, DeSantis is front-runner for president in the Trump party. Shows that the two parties are holding their people to different standards.

    What possible comparison can you make between the two. Nothing Desantis has done is illegal or even wrong. Anything negative is just Leftist poo flung at the wall hoping it would stick. They’re so jealous how successful FL hs been compared to larger Democrat states, they just can’t stand it. Cuomo on the other hand aren’t just rumors. He legit ordered sick people into homes that got people killed and admitted he sexually harassed women, even though he’s Italian, so it’s OK. That’s what they do and ****, hahahaha.

    Anytime a republican/conservative elected representative proves to be a good leader, the liberals, the media, and the democrats will attack them 24/7. Gov Ron DeSantis is a perfect example. On the other hand, he democrats, the liberals, and the media will make excuses for democrat/liberal leaders who are incompetent. Gov Cuomo, Mayor Lightfoot, and Gov Newsom are perfect examples.

    That's incorrect, QN. One of those parties does not have any standards. Anything goes. Need proof? Orange Jesus is raking in MILLIONS of dollars from his gullible groupies. He is allegedly a billionaire but has not paid ONE thin dime of his own money to fight the injustice of "election fraud". And, if that wasn't bad enough, he invited the Taliban to a BBQ at Camp David. Had I been a supporter, everything he's done just since COVID reached the US would have easily made see just what kind of monster he is.

    In reference to Covid19

    Claim; DeSantis did better than most States

    Correction; According to today’s Covid19 Numbers, DeSantis certainly did not do better than most States.

    For example; Among all States, Florida now ranks 2nd highest for Covid19 Hospitalizations per 100,000 pop.......good governance?????

    There you go again calling Trump you know what.

    Go educate yourself by reading the bible. Trump is nothing like Jesus and you know this.

    That's funny. I didn't know you dabbled in comedy. A Renaissance type. Cool man.

    Who do you think is pulling DeSantis' puppet strings? Three guesses.
