It would be a shame if he got cement lung....but I suspect that he is fully vaxx'd. He's not nearly as stupid as his voters seem to be.

Nah...dudes vaxxed to the max. Probably just as paranoid as the Texas governor, and gets daily antibody injections.

Watch the lady on the right behind him. She is looking at him critically. It is only toward the end that she even gives anything he says a slight nod.

At one point she sees him floundering and she looks to the guy to her right. He is behind DeSatan and we can't see him. I think she is trying to see if others are picking up on DeSatan's shaky voice and breathlessness.

Why is this woman not wearing a mask? Maybe it would be the kiss of death around DeSatan, but not wearing one could be, too.

The man is almost as wide as he is tall. Some months ago, I saw him entering a Hotel in Palm Beach and he was in a polo shirt with no jacket. He’s definitely obese, thus he could be hit hard by Covid.

in Fort Lauderdale. If the link starts at the beginning, go to 43:28. A stark contrast from today's event.

“These waves are just something you have to deal with.”.

When elected leaders take a laissez faire attitude about their citizens' health, they have earned the same attitude back.
