Governors and other local leaders across the country have issued stay-at-home orders to their constituents in hopes of curbing the spread of the highly contagious virus that's caused a national health crisis in the United States.

But not every governor has followed this example.


Florida's Republican Governor Ron DeSantis has been under criticism for weeks for his failure to issue a statewide stay-at-home order and for letting Florida's beaches remain open during spring break.

Florida is now nearing 7,000 cases statewide,

When pressed again about his refusal to issue a stay-at-home order, DeSantis pointed to the White House, saying:

"The task force is not recommending this. If they do, that's something that would carry a lot of weight with me."

People widely thought DeSantis was attempting to pass blame onto the White House.





At a Tuesday press briefing on the virus, President Donald Trump was asked about DeSantis's comments.

Trump responded by praising DeSantis for his so-called leadership, saying he's a "great governor who knows exactly what he's doing."

Both Trump and Vice President Mike Pence commended DeSantis while emphasizing that these orders are managed at the state level, not by the federal government—essentially tossing the ball back to him.

It only led to more confusion.


People were flummoxed at why DeSantis was waiting for permission from the federal government, when the federal government said it was letting states defer to their own judgment.


Totally not inconsistent at all.

MAGA Influencer Charlie Kirk Called Out After Blaming DEI For High Death Toll In Texas Flooding Disaster

Turning Point USA founder and MAGA influencer Charlie Kirk was harshly criticized after he claimed the death toll in the flash floods that have devastated central Texas "would not have been as high if it wasn't for DEI," ridiculously suggesting that principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion were responsible.

Kirk's comments are reflective of President Donald Trump’s broader push to dismantle federal programs focused on diversity and inclusion—part of what he pledged in his inaugural address would be a campaign to stop attempts to “socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life.”
