Ron DeSantis' press secretary Christina Pushaw decided to get on social media yesterday, and attack, mock openly, one of the mothers of one of the high school students who was up on stage with DeSantis on Wednesday, where he berated and appeared to bully them into not wearing their face masks up on stage with him. Pushaw sent out this meme. When mom says, no, but dad says, yes, and the kid's taking off the mask, right? Freedom for the child because the government official told the child, I'm making the decision for you, right? Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the same governor who's literally pushing legislation to get the government out of parents' decisions for their children? Hand those keys back over to the parents. And the parent had told the kid to wear the mask, according to Pushaw's own little meme there to mock her.

So Ron DeSantis just proved that this entire legislation that his administration, I believe has actually passed, saying the parents have the right, not the government. He just disproved that entire thing by telling the kid to take off the mask, even though the kid's mom had told 'em to put it on. Huh, little bit hypocritical, right? Little bit exposing how disgusting these people are and that their legislation was nothing more than pandering to the dumbest voters here in the state of Florida. But this mocking of this parent is absolute one of the lowest of the lows we have seen in politics recently. And trust me, you watch this program enough, you understand there's a lot of lows in American politics, but Christina Pushaw is literally scraping the bottom of the barrel to come up with the most disgusting takes that we see in American politics today. She is a vile, cruel, heartless individual serving as Ron DeSantis' press secretary.

Furthermore, if anybody wants to argue that the kid made the decision himself, as kids are able to do, right? Think about this. Reporter asked the kid, and the kid says, I took mine off. Reporter says, did you feel pressure by the governor to do that? And the kid said, a little. So the kid admits that part of the reason he took it off is because he felt at least a little pressure from the governor. Case closed. Had the governor not said that to him, the kid would've happily left his mask on. He didn't want to make a scene. He obviously didn't want to off the governor, right? That's a very difficult situation to put those kids in, which is exactly why Ron DeSantis said what he did. And for this individual, Pushaw, to come out there and mock the parent who was trying to protect their kid, protect everybody around the kid, is absolutely one of the more vile moments in American politics that we have seen. Well, I guess since Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene's outburst at the state of the union. So, not that long ago.
