The DeSantis variant
As the COVID Delta variant plays out in the United States, it’s becoming clear that this is no longer a nationwide pandemic, or even a regional pandemic. It’s a pandemic of the unvaccinated, the unmasked, and the states with stunningly awful leadership. First and foremost, it’s become a Florida pandemic – and that’s entirely on Governor Ron DeSantis.
CNN’s Jim Acosta suggested this weekend that at this point it should be called “The DeSantis variant.” He’s right, of course – and the internet agrees:
Jim Acosta is right he deserves the honor of having the virus include his name. He has made it his own and has done everything to assist the virus, while doing nothing for the people. Especially children. This is what you'll be remembered for

Yes! 💯 percent call the newest and deadliest strain of covid the #DeSantisVariant.
Not sure how his wife sleeps at night knowing her part in this. Clearly, the Gov is a sociopath, so I'm sure he's sleeping just fine. https://t.co/D4BXSL3Ktd— Kay🇺🇦 (make critical thinking a thing again) (@ExpelTheCrazies) August 8, 2021
