How to NOT tamp down bizarre rumors (Ron DeSantis related).

Hmm...

[Takket]

1. time of the tweet is also exactly 12 noon

which might just be a coincidence, but feels more like a tweet programmed to be posted at a specific time.

4. You can schedule tweets for anytime, even after you've died.

My friend runs social media for a few small firms and the scheduled tweet makes you look busy when you aren't.

2. Not the real DeSantis

Maybe it's just me but he looks like a taxidermy rather than a real live person. The others in the photo appear to have real life-like poses but DeSantis appears to be decidedly fake. Fake news!

11. It's just you. n/t

3. Where is DeathSantis?

5. He probably has toadies who do his public relations tweets

Just like Chump (when he had a Twitter account) other people wrote a lot of his stuff, just because he couldn't be bothered. I'm sure DeSantis has a PR staff to write these things too.

It's not evil, it's public relations.

6. There's something rumor-generating about this?

I don't get it. That the two timestamps for these posts of nearly the same photo (they aren't exactly the same, two different shots of the same scene) are different?

Just different Twitter posters poster these pics on different dates. Big deal.

8. I think the point is...

...that DeSantis has been M.I.A. for awhile, then his Twitter account posts a picture of him seemingly being out and about, when, in fact, the picture was from a few weeks ago...

13. This.

16. It wasn't until I read a few more posts that I caught onto the MIA thing...

...that has been going on. Makes more sense now.

7. Perhaps DeSantis not in public because he has Covid?

I try to think of DeSantis as little as possible.

17. Maybe he has the karma variant.

[Nevilledog]

20. Karma variant.....brilliant

9. His press secretary is as big a toad as he is

We're suffering here - 111,000+ cases in the last 48 hours and DeathSentence has been AWOL for weeks. Now his fool of a flack is saying he's at the office working, shortly after saying he was taking a vacation.

12. I just came across this tweet from Nikki Fried:

What a clusterfuck!

14. And then there is Florida's Surgeon General - talk about a trifecta of trash!

10. When was his last public appearance?

Maybe he’s *cough, cough, cough, cough* indisposed.

15. For this thread

18. It took that long for the check to clear?

19. This reminds me of Kim Jong-un disappearing for extended periods of time

The idea is to keep talking about him. De Santis "Bye" I say
