Symone Sanders to reporters traveling to Jacksonville with @VP, per pooler @katierogers:

"She said the VP’s office reached out to Gov. Ron DeSantis and “the entire Florida delegation” but was not able to get in touch."

Trump Lied. People Died.

Oh did they try Mar a Lago because that’s where @GovRonDeSantis has been hiding out

It's pretty shitty for the whole leadership apparatus to snub the VP like this. DeSantis and the other R's are such babies.

And educate Floridians on the stimulus bill.

No way would they have ever gone with her to tout Bidens success but they look mighty racist by snubbing her entirely

The Florida GOP didn’t snub VP, they hid. I don’t want to give them racism as an excuse. They are hiding because Biden/Harris are winning and, despite an effort to portray opening Florida macho strength, it turned out to be stupid. VP is in their face.

The kind of meetings you're trying to get with the "inner cronies" usually occurs as breakfast meetings and only by invitation. You can try tapping into any of the number of innocuous sounding organizations for someone who will put in a good word for you. I suggest the Rotary Club. Or, perhaps, the Chamber of Commerce. It's not so hard. I hear that our government City attorneys have been known to serve on their boards. Shouldn't be too hard to find an attorney in Florida that plays both sides.

...she doesn't want to be around those crazy people anyway. Like my social life. I'm glad I don't have to hang out with Trumpies anymore.

That's who we are reaching out to, and the response is just as coherent now as it was for Barney.
