Aaron Rupar, who has more than 700,000 followers who enjoy video clips taken out of context, reports that Florida reported a record number of COVID cases Wednesday.

Surprisingly out of character, he then went on to admit that, yes, New York reported even more cases than Florida. But he’s making a point.
Yes, New York reported more cases today. The point is that this is not the day to pretend that DeSantis has all the answers.

Seems like he’s got a better grasp then New York does

It's pretty apparent that DeBlasio and Biden don't have the answers. https://t.co/qqTgl22Ilu

So if that's the point, why not put up both numbers?
Don't answer.
We all know why. https://t.co/59rTzDEYTg

The point is, Aaron, is that no one has the answers but Biden and the the media pretended that they did.

Did DeSantis ever promise to "shut down the virus"?

Who said that he had all the answers? Please be specific. Or is this just another logical fallacy of yours?

Yes, I know I made a stupid comment, because I dare not criticize New York and I do criticize Florida, which has fewer cases. But well, you know what I mean, you have to push narratives.

No, the point is that you just needed to dig on DeSantis.

Well, if NYC is reporting record cases, then clearly you need to stop pretending that mask mandates and vaccine passports are an answer to anything. https://t.co/Fpw8E1Ywnw
— Andrew @ Don't Walk, RUN! Productions (@DontWalkRUN) December 30, 2021
So you're saying vaccine passports, lockdowns, and strict measures didn't help? https://t.co/yZ0IRirlsK

And what do you think the answers are, Aaron? Because if it's vaccination mandates, masking mandates,and lockdowns,then you have a hell of a lot harder task explaining New York than DeSantis does explaining Florida.
(Also "DeSantis has all the answers" is a hell of a strawman.)
— Karl Dandleton (@Phanatic1a) December 30, 2021
The point is Florida has fewer cases despite having no mask or vax mandates. Clearly NY's approach isn't delivering the goods by being shut down.

DeSantis didn’t kick children out of restaurants and arrest pizza enthusiasts. https://t.co/MEJA0AnlHB

Florida is not banning 5 year olds from society.

But the leaders of the city that imposed all the Faucist mandates and still has higher cases per capita than free Florida do? https://t.co/dNTSIXsEri
