Asked about the late evacuation of a FL county slammed by Hurricane Ian, Ron DeSantis attacked the media. He isn't meeting the moment, says @CharlieCrist:
“Why this governor wasn’t motivated for the health, safety and welfare of the people of Lee County…is unconscionable.”
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is polling well for his response to Hurricane Ian.
But if you think he deserves a pat on the back for his handling of the storm, @mehdirhasan has some facts that you need to know:

.@BrandingBrandi “100%” agrees Donald Trump wouldn’t have been elected president if it hadn’t been for Twitter.
