Ron DeSantis being “inexplicably missing for like two weeks.” However, DeSantis was to a large degree spending time with his wife who is undergoing cancer treatments.

God I love this guy. Everyone in the media throws him straight fastballs out over the plate & it only seems that way because he's so quick & doesn't hesitate to point out the hypocrisy of the left. Future president. https://t.co/TY1Y9zpSrK

Every state should have a governor like that.
