So now they’re blaming Fox News and listening to Rush Limbo as the reason why they’re lagging behind in shutting down the economy. I just got the Presidential Medal of Freedom, for crying out loud, at the State of the Union. Jim, you know what you’re saying is a crock. The information was there, but in that information bubble they were basically getting a lot of sort of noise and news pollution. Like why did DeSantis do what he did? Why did Georgia wait so long? It’s because they were listen to President Trump, they were watching Fox News, they were listening Rush Limbo, all of who were downplaying this. VANDEHEI: What you’re seeing here - and this is a bigger problem for society - is information inequality. So here’s Jim VandeHei or VandeHei, question: “It looks like finally the president got DeSantis to do the right thing in Florida. And, yes, ladies and gentlemen, EIB is an essential business in Florida. He’s known Trump for a long, long time and now they’re trying to disparage DeSantis as nothing more than a puppet.Īnd so a couple days ago DeSantis did issue a 30-day stay-at-home order with exceptions for essential businesses. DeSantis was a member of Congress, he was a friend with Trump. It just so happens they’re good friends, and it just so happens they’re in the same political party, and it just so happens that Florida’s an important state, and it just so happens that Trump likes DeSantis. They’re trying to position DeSantis as a know-nothing idiot who is a puppy dog following Trump around and does whatever Trump tells him to do whenever Trump tells him to do it because Trump praises DeSantis. They are trying to say he’s nothing but a Donald Trump puppet. And he has approval numbers 60% and higher.

Ron DeSantis is doing a fabulous job as governor of Florida. That’s another thing they’re trying to do. And the question: “It looks like finally yesterday the president made the phone call to Governor DeSantis, the dominoes fell from there heading to the state stay-at-home order.” I think this guy was one of the original cofounders of The Politico. I get confused on the pronunciation of his name. RUSH: This morning with PMSNBC, Willie Geist cohosting the Morning Joe program on that network, had the cofounder and CEO of Axios, Jim VandeHei or VandeHei.
