During today's (9/20/22) press conference, a reporter asked Ron to respond to recent criticism after shipping migrants to Martha's Vineyard. Ron DeSantis took critics' statements and flipped their hypocrisy against them for a direct hit in their faces. Here are a few of his quotes that stand out.
• "When Biden is flying these people all over the fruited plain in the middle of the night, I didn't hear a peep out of those people!"
• "If you believe in open borders, then it's the sanctuary jurisdictions that should have to bear the grunt of the open borders. So that's what we're doing. But what happened was they were provided an ability to be in the most posh sanctuary jurisdiction maybe in the world. And obviously, it's sad that Martha's Vineyard people deported them the next day. They could have absorbed this. They chose not to. But what it shows is if 50 was a burden on one of the richest places in our country, what about all these other communities that have been overrun with hundreds or thousands?"
• "He inherited a border that wasn't like this. He has created the crisis! But now, at least we know — nobody can deny that there's a crisis. Everybody now knows. And it was only because you had to have the elite who want to have the cost on everybody else, and they don't want to have to shoulder that. That's the only reason now people are talking about this."
Well said, Ron, and way to think on your feet. It’s now becoming increasingly LESS RACIST to want secure borders when the virtue-signaling ultra-wealthy unmask themselves and display their hypocrisy for the world stage. If they can’t bother, why should we?
