Former President Donald Trump is blaming Governor Ron DeSantis for Florida's morbidity rate during the COVID-19 pandemic.
"When the Ron DeSanctimonious facts come out, you will see that he is better than most Democrat governors, but very average, at best, compared to Republican governors who have done a fantastic job, Trump said in a video tweeted by the Trump War Room, associated with his 2024 campaign."How about the fact that he had the third-most deaths of any state having to do with the China virus, or COVID? Even [Andrew] Cuomo did better, he was No. 4.
Trump never specifically mentions a data source, though a list compiled by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of COVID mortality by state in the year 2021 shows that Florida ranked third in most deaths with 34,557, followed by New York with 21,675. California and Texas were Nos. 1 and 2, respectively.
