NBC News' Chris Pollone reports from Daytona Beach as Florida braces for possible high winds and flash flooding from Hurricane Isaias. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis urged people to take the hurricane "seriously" and discussed possible shelter plans.
The man with ZERO credibility.
You need to be the first to GO.
Unlike COVID-19 ..... BLM FDT 1619 TMC 🏁
Gee, this Gov DeSantis boggles the mind. He supports evac when a hurricane threatens once in a while, but does not believe in precautionary measures against Covid19 which is in our midst 24/7. Which one has taken more lives this year
lol
And wear a mask? Save yourselves.
This guy questions science in the virus but...now he supports the science behind the weather. They’re all a bunch of fools!!!
Fake news?
Yes De santis ! Just like you did when advised to wear a mask right! He horrible, hateful, ignorant Trumpite👎👎👎👎👎 🇨🇦💙
Now he cares about the people of Florida?
DeSantis YOU SHOULD EVACUATE and let someone else makes the decisions that will save the people of Florida
Florida Man will be right on that
The lates Tweet by president trump; “To all Americans it’s ‘FAKE NEWS’ Hurricane Isaias is a big Hoax perpetrated by the Democrat radical left! Don’t believe go party, no mask don’t let the liberal left drive you out of your homes with a FAKE EVACUATION!!!
Is a leader who likes to create stress and lead to regression.
Not a hoax?
But if you're ordered to wear a mask, you don't really have to?
There's no hurricane!!
He is so funny
You go first Governor.... 🖕🖕🖕
RonDeSantisFL Now, say “if you are ORDERED to wear masks please take it SERIOUSLY and DO IT!!” Shouldn’t be hard.
Weatherists! 🦖
I’m waiting for the videos of Walmart shoppers shouting about their right to choose rather than be told to evacuate.
Bet he wouldn’t say that to Donnie on 1/20/21.
Trying to act like a leader does not make you a leader. DeSantis is a FAILURE and s Trump minion. SAD!
Hurricanes are a hoax, don’t leave until Trump gives the OK
Except for teachers. We will be discounting snorkels for you 15%. Please visit theDiscount Florida Snorkels for teachers website.
But fuck wearing masks.
Why! The governor has not taken Coronavirus seriously! VOTE BLUE ALL THE WAY!
Why would they believe him now?
Free Lolita ffs no wild orca should suffer extreme weather unable to gtf out of it and NO wild orca lives alone wtf is wrong with miami they clearly hate Lolita to cause such misery in a shity tiny cage
As serious as covid ?
Hard to believe anything he says, I suppose.
Why? You don't take science seriously. You are a horrible example
Oh he can react to an oncoming event.
Floridians has chosen to be walked into Trump's death chambers.
Why should they listen to him though? He doesn’t have an ounce of credibility left.
GovRonDeSantis A shame that you didn’t take COVID as seriously. How many evacuations centers will become SuperSpreader sites because DeSantisFailedFlorida by putting politics and ego ahead of safety?
Ron Disastrous - why should Floridians listen to you? You LIE ABOUT EVERYTHING -LOSER.
How does THIS guy have ANY credibility with Florida’s citizens?😒
Desantis, go. Trump, go. VoteBlueToSaveAmerica
But.... Not COVID. Got it.
Here ya go GovRonDeSantis. Maybe this will assist with our covid19 response.
Here you go again. Complete lack of leadership.
Now he chooses to trust the experts?
Sad that GovRonDeSantis didn’t COVID-19 seriously here in Florida; that’s what happens when you are a follower and not a leader. Being a sycophant for realDonaldTrump is a losing strategy.
Here is the cheat: when you order state of emergency, you get fed money
Take the hurricane seriously but not the pandemic.
Sadly so many have lost faith in their leadership. Can’t imagine why? 🙄
Did you ever mention the United States Virgin Islands or Puerto Rico when the storm first happened.
You can’t make me wear a mask, so you can’t make me evacuate.
Hypocrite . I thought you can’t order people to do anything.
I wonder how many will be out protesting their loss of freedom?
Why would anybody take what he says seriously. He has lied for months
RonDeSantisFL:'But if you feel the evacuation order takes away your freedom, ignore it.'
Maybe it’s time for turnabout, and our representatives should be asking why blue states should pay to bail you out after hurricane season. But they won’t, because they and we understand what a union of 50 states is about.
RonDeSantisFL The pity is that many Floridians no longer believe anything coming from your mouth. I 🙏🏽🙏🏽 there's someone they can really trust telling them to evacuate. TroubleEnsuesWhenGovernmentOfficialsWillNotBeTruthful
Their might be a bit of leadership crisis in FL.
I think I got it now...the hurricane is something visible and more tangible. There should have been PSA's that show the effects of covid on the body everywhere.
This is the real problem when you squander your credibility Gov.
RonDeSantisFL I’ll take it as seriously as you take the pandemic!
NOW you care about Floridian lives? Your actions speak louder than your words...and most of your words are bad enough...
Oh got it! COVID was a non emergency but to believe you now
Send Desantis into the Everglades to hunt down the pythons. Can’t come out till they’re gone.
Yup it’s an order, but with over 6,000 deaths wearing of masks is not an order.
Should parents send their kids to school during the hurricane? DeSantis isn't being consistent here.
...and don’t return until this ass is removed from any position of public office.
O but the corona virus isn't serious at all..no big deal..a hurricane comes and goes in a day or two..the virus is still here..smh..priorities all fudge up with this guy
The governor is taking the hurricane seriously, but he’s not taking COVID-19 seriously.
What an asshole but is he taking the pandemic serious!! Rotten to the core!!!
Oh, if you ignore it, it will go away.
Hahahaha...NOW you listen to someone who IS intelligent... The Weatherman!!!
Wow take this idiot serious.
Now he pays attention to science?
Where is Trump and his sharpie. He'll save Florida with a stroke of his sharpie.
As seriously as he takes coronavirus?
So are we supposed to believe the storm isn’t a liberal hoax? Why don’t you display the same swagger you did when ignoring the Democratic virus hoax? Or do you listen to science ‘sometimes’? Asshat
He F up the VIRUS... HE'LL F UP A HURRICANE
Now he's trying to keep the people in Florida safe... Where has that guy been the past several months!!
Go where ?
He can’t be serious
Just look like you took COVID seriously?! Lololol
Go where? What is DeSantis’ evacuation plan?
Isaías hit Puerto Rico as a tropical storm not yet a hurricane, and it brought heavy heavy rain,flooding and some trees, electrical posts fell. Without electricity half a million residents. Now it is a Hurricane, do take it very very seriously.
He's aged like 10 years in the last 5 months
Why, the storm will mysteriously go away 😎😎
Why would anyone listen to you?
But, it's my right to stay home, right?
EVACUATE TO WHERE GOVERNOR? GEORGIA YOU SAY, KEMP IS AS YOU ARE, CLUELESS TO HELP ANYONE, BUT TRUMP DESTROY THE COUNTRY AND COSTING COUNTLESS CITIZENS THEIR LIVES. IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS WE WILL SEE HOW YOU AND KEMPS PUPPET STRATEGY IS WORKING TO TRUMPS TUNES.
.Good, DeSantis understands high wind and rain. Too bad, he like Trump, has no idea how the virus transmits!
And God said no hurricane will interfere with the election.
I hope palm beach gets wiped off the map.
Oh so he wants FL to take a hurricane seriously but not the Coronavirus? SMH!
God doesn't like ugly! Seems like he has alot on plate. KarmaIsABitch
Russian tool.
Take it seriously... like wearing a mask?
'If you are ordered to wear a mask/social distance/wash your hands/stay home, please take it seriously and do,' See, not so hard is it Florida Gov. DeSantis?
Ummmmm
Evacuations cause hurricanes! There wouldn’t be hurricanes if they didn’t report them! Obama is responsible!
How can anybody take him seriously when he talks about safety?
I’m gobsmacked at what Republicans want to save ppl from. Hurricane = take evacuation orders seriously and go. Deadly pandemic = don’t wear a mask or social distance, your body your choice. How do they decide
What a total horse's ass.
...but NOT the Pandemic?!?! He kraykray!
This is the same idiot who preached following health advice is a choice and is unconstitutional.
Hey Ronnyboy, let's follow your Covid 19 logic, the government can't force people to leave their homes just because a deadly hurricane may be headed their way. It's just rain and wind, it will eventually go away, the sun will shine again. Pretty stupid, huh?
This he takes seriously. Bet he expects to be congratulated on this too
Who’s going to believe anything you say. now can you see the destructive atmosphere you’ve created by constantly lying about the pandemic. Death descant is.
To whom it may concern: aishahhasnie LelandVittert GillianHTurner GUESS why ppl are C/N sharks in the water = THAT IS WHERE SHARKS LIVE it is their domain FoxNews KellyO SpeakerPelosi said 'till there is a bill & vaccine PPL CAN DIE IN THE MEANTIME - SHE SAID IT DNC
So, DeSantis takes Public Health/ Safety seriously during a Hurricane WHICH IS THE CORRECT THING TO DO, yet during the COVID-19, he doesn't the correct thing is Trump Bullying Him or is DeSantis will to risk the lives of Floridians to the COVID-19 just to please Trump?
Yes, please. Take your virus when you leave and drop it off in another state. 🤦♀️
All those evacuated/infected Floridian's are going to spread their covid to other states?
GovRonDeSantis Did Trump give you permission to order an evacuation? Or is it just too hard to hide property distruction and flooding from data sources and tv camera’s?
Is this Jack azz on later this evening?
ok
Against type
How does Florida still have toilet paper in stock?
If you are ordered to be on your knees and lick orange blob’s azz, please take it seriously and go.
🙄
A hurricane like this might cause what, maybe 5-6 fatalities and 2 billion $ in damages. And the warning is prudent and proper given the threat assessment. But an airborne highly transmitted virus like covid-19, with 150,000 dead and trillions of $'s in damages gets underplayed!
This guy is a nut job...
Get away from DeSantis as fast as you can because he’s a Category 5 dealing with the virus.
But isn’t it a hoax?
Ohhhhhh, you take this as a serious threat.
I find it hard to believe us PATRIOTS are going to leave our homes because the government tell us to. /s
But.... muh freedumb!!
Exactly WHO listens to or trusts this guy for advice?
No mask required
Hold the phone, President Trump just tweeted this hurricane is going to miss Florida. He said he has it on course to hit Alaska! Lucky Floridians
Well you should’ve took it serious to but you like making mistakes
Really? Like wearing masks or social distancing? You blew that out DeSantis.
We take Hurricanes seriously, You, not so much . RonDeathSantis
