The Florida governor has a weird habit when he signs bills.
The zoomed out photo accentuates the physical awkwardness of this activity. DeSantis is perched at the lip of the stage, bent slightly at the waist, as he fully extends one arm. It appears that his suit is restricting his range of motion, preventing him from striking a more athletic pose as he makes an underhand throw toward the crowd. The pen looks comically small as it sails through the air.
It is hard to look graceful or coordinated while throwing a pen, unlike, say, a baseball, which DeSantis is! And beyond how weird it looks, DeSantis’ habit, reminiscent of a mascot using a t-shirt cannon at a sporting event, also strikes a strange chord given the extremist content of the legislation at hand.
