Florida's Governor Is A Younger Version of Trump
Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) compared opening Florida schools to re-opening Walmart and Home Depot in an attempt to argue schools could operate amid the coronavirus pandemic during a press conference Thursday afternoon.
“If a parent wants to opt for virtual education, they should absolutely be able to do that,” DeSantis said. “We shouldn’t be forcing them to do any types of decisions. But I’m confident if you can do Home Depot, if you can do Walmart, if you can do these things, we can absolutely do the schools. I want our kids to be able minimize education gap that I think has developed.”


Question:  When schools open in the fall, will the children need to social distance during the active shooter drills?
